Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros - home

如果有周遭的朋友在最近三年內結婚的話，我一定會偷偷在家裡苦練卡啦on line，
然後跑去你們的婚禮喝的醉醺醺，上台獻唱這首歌。



Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros的frontman 是已解散的ima robot主唱,Alex Ebert。
不過現在宛若devendra失蹤雙胞胎兄弟的造型，的確很難讓人聯想至ima robot時期的妖嬌華麗生物。


(當初這首歌把我迷的暈頭轉向）

大編制的樂團成員，亂七八糟你想得到的物品都可以拿來演奏
(領銜樂器分別由小喇叭和手風琴擔綱)
，男女雙主唱，如果說arcade fire呈現給這個世代另一番氣象，
你從來沒想到送葬曲也可以這麼蠱惑人心。
那麼 Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros
(團名好長，我承認我是用複製貼上...)
應該就是快樂森林裡的arcade fire，
隨時都能跨上獨角獸，準備出門採魔菇。



專輯版本，我喜歡他們處理vocal的方法，
聲音拉得很遠很薄卻充滿張力和包覆性，
似乎能親眼見證他們熱切吶喊，手舞足蹈的那種迫切。




live現場。
身為迷妹，看完這種表演真是死而無憾。
(前提是我已經看完Polyphonic Spree的live，還有聽見ian brown
親口跟樂迷保證說他厭倦hip pop，要跟Squire甜甜蜜蜜復合的那天到來... )

lyrics:
[Her:]
Alabama, Arkansas,
I do love my ma and pa,
Not the way that I do love you.

[Him:]
Holy, Moley, me, oh my,
You're the apple of my eye,
Girl I've never loved one like you.

[Her:]
Man oh man you're my best friend,
I scream it to the nothingness,
There ain't nothing that I need.

[Him:]
Well, hot and heavy, pumpkin pie,
Chocolate candy, Jesus Christ,
Ain't nothing please me more than you.

[Both:]
Ahh Home. Let me come home
Home is wherever I'm with you.
Ahh Home. Let me go ho-oh-ome.
Home is wherever I'm with you.

La, la, la, la, take me home.
Mother, I'm coming home.

[Him:]
I'll follow you into the park,
Through the jungle through the dark,
Girl I never loved one like you.

[Her:]
Moats and boats and waterfalls,
Alley-ways and pay phone calls,
I've been everywhere with you.

[Him:]
We laugh until we think we’ll die,
Barefoot on a summer night
Nothin’ new is sweeter than with you

[Her:]
And in the streets you run afree,
Like it's only you and me,
Geeze, you're something to see.

[Both:]
Ahh Home. Let me go home.
Home is wherever I'm with you.
Ahh Home. Let me go ho-oh-ome.
Home is wherever I'm with you.

La, la, la, la, take me home.
Daddy, I'm coming home.

(Talking)
Him: Jade
Her: Alexander
Him: Do you remember that day you fell outta my window?
Her: I sure do, you came jumping out after me.
Him: Well, you fell on the concrete, nearly broke your ass, you were bleeding all over the place and I rushed you out to the hospital, you remember that?
Her: Yes I do.
Him: Well there's something I never told you about that night.
Her: What didn't you tell me?
Him: While you were sitting in the backseat smoking a cigarette you thought was gonna be your last, I was falling deep, deeply in love with you, and I never told you til just now.

[Both:]
Ahh Home. Let me go home.
Home is wherever I'm with you.
Ahh Home. Let me go ho-oh-ome.
Home is where I'm alone with you.

[Him:]
Home. Let me come home.
Home is wherever I'm with you.

[Her:]
Ahh home. Yes I am ho-oh-ome.
Home is when I'm alone with you.

[Her:]
Alabama, Arkansas,
I do love my ma and pa...
Moats and boats and waterfalls,
Alley-ways and pay phone calls...

[Both:]
Ahh Home. Let me go home.
Home is wherever I'm with you.
Ahh Home. Let me go ho-oh-ome.
Home is where I'm alone with you...
