BLISTER IN THE SUN, VIOLENT FEMMES
I was listening to this when I first realised I could sing. I put it on in
my Mum’s car on the way home from the supermarket when I was 13 and I was
singing along to it. When I was 13, my voice sounded exactly like [Violent
Femmes vocalist] Gordon Gano’s. From then on I devoured that record and the
teenage angst of it all. It's a very weird and individual record-it's almost
folk-rock and it probably shouldnt work but it does.
BLISTER IN THE SUN (VIOLENT FEMMES)
當我第一次意識到我會唱歌時,就是在聽這個。和我媽從超商回家時,我在我媽車上
聽這張而且跟著唱,當時我才13歲。那時我的聲音聽起來超像Violent Femmes主唱
Gordon Gano的聲音,從那時候開始,我貪婪地聆聽那些唱片以及接收其中所有的青春
焦慮。那真的是張相當怪誕且獨特的唱片--幾乎是民歌式的搖滾,它不該是那樣子,
但它就是那樣了!

CHELSEA HOTEL NO.2, LEONARD COHEN
I'm a huge Leonard Cohen fan and this was one of the first songs I learned
to play on the acoustic guitar. I was fascinated by Janis Joplin at the time
and this was basically the story of him and her in a hotel room, having sex
and doing drugs. His lyrics are masterful and so simple. Leonard Cohen remains
an influence on me to this day-you just have to listen to "In The Cold Light
Of Morning" on our “Meds” album to hear his impact.
CHELSEA HOTEL NO.2 (LEONARD COHEN)
我是Leonard Cohen的死忠粉絲,而且這是我第一首學會用吉他彈的歌。當時我也深深
著迷於Janis Joplin,而這首歌的背景就是他和她在飯店中所發生的故事,相戀、發生
關係和嗑藥這樣。他的歌詞老練沉穩,簡單寫意,到現在Leonard Cohen仍對我有相當
大的影響力,你只需要聽看看我們“Meds”專輯裡的“In The Cold Light Of Morning”
,就可以得知他對我們的影響了。

DON’T LET ME BE MISUNDERSTOOD, NINA SIMONE
The first time I heard this it just seemed to describe me completely.
The lyrics are “I’m just a soul whose intentions are good, Oh Lord,
please don’t let me be misunderstood”. It implies someone fucking up all
the time, which I do, but I have good intentions. That line is the line I'll
put on my tombstone. It encapsulates how I see my own soul.
DON’T LET ME BE MISUNDERSTOOD (NINA SIMONE)
初次聽見,它似乎就完全透析了我的心思一般。歌詞寫道”I’m just a soul whose
intentions are good, Oh Lord, please don’t let me be misunderstood”,那暗示
著人總會搞砸很多事情,我也會,但是我的出發點是好意的。那句歌詞我想我將會把他
刻在我的墓碑上當作墓誌銘,因為它濃縮了我如何看待我自己的靈魂的精隨。

GUILTY PLEASURE!
TOTAL ECLIPSE OF THE HEART, BONNIE TYLER
It's amazing! It was written by Jim Steinman, who did all the Meat Loaf
records, but this is his best work. It was huge when I was a kid and I can
still see the video in my head. I heard it on the radio the other day.
I didn't realise what it was, and my body tingled and I went, "What the fuck
is that? That's amazing". I don’t love it for kitsch reasons, I love it
for the right reasons.
GUILTY PLEASURE!
TOTAL ECLIPSE OF THE HEART (BONNIE TYLER)
太神奇了!這首歌就是由製作所有Meat Loaf唱片的Jim Steinman寫的,但是這張才是
他最棒的作品。對當時還只是小孩的我來說那意象是非常巨大的,我現在甚至還能在
腦海中看見那首MV!最近我在電台上聽見這首歌,我當下沒有意識過來,但是我的身體
卻發麻了,我脫口而出地說:「他媽的這啥鬼!棒極了!」我是因為她唱的太適切了
所以喜歡,並非那些媚俗的原因而喜歡。
