- 專輯介紹
- Owl City(即Adam Young)將會以早期使用過的樂隊名Sky Sailing,於本月13日發行一張新專輯'An Airplane Carried Me to Bed ',現iTunes上已經可以預訂了。在前不久剛建立的Sky Sailing的Myspace裡,也提供了這首'Brielle'和專輯中的另一首'I Live Alone'的試聽。
憑借Owl City,Adam Young從一個埋首地下室玩音樂的羞澀男孩一躍成為排行榜暢銷冠軍。他柔和的嗓音與動人的旋律打動了無數樂迷的心。在首張專輯[Ocean Eyes]發行不到一年時間,Adam即將於7月13日以Sky Sailing樂隊的名義全球發表這個全新樂隊的處女作[An Airplane Carried Me To Bed]。就在這個消息發佈後的6小時內,這張專輯已經在iTunes流行專輯榜上攀升至第四位,在總榜上也爭得18位的席次,而這僅僅只是剛開始。
事實上Sky Sailing的成立要早於Owl City。有別於Owl City的音樂形式,Sky Sailing更偏重於原音吉他與鋼琴的融合。可以這麼理解,Sky Sailing是Owl City的不插電版本。新專輯[An Airplane Carried Me To Bed]中的歌曲實際上是在07年夏天,也就是在Owl City還沒走紅之前就已錄製完成了。如今Owl City大受歡迎,Adam也覺得是時候將這些早期作品發表,並「重新潤色」,讓他的忠實歌迷們感受一個有別於Owl City的Adam Young。
專輯中的歌曲充分體現了Adam常被隱藏在電子音符之下的驚人歌詞創作功力,特別是已經在Myspace上發佈的兩首新歌」I Live Alone」和」 Brielle」,美好的歌詞與旋律一樣動人。「這張專輯是對過往的一次回顧,是一個來自明尼蘇達小鎮的男孩對於夢想對於希望的紀錄片。我很高興在這裡能與你們分享。」Adam這樣說到。
1.Captains of the Sky(情天艦長)
(修改) Mid-air, I woke up beneath the flight deck on a wallpaper airplane As you stared, I strap my helmet on and left your driveway behind
Flutter all through the night And we can pull the clouds around This paper hanger skyline Summer smile again And you can disappear But I'd rather be here
Dive bomb, we descended down the staircase and crashed to the kitchen floor So long, our flight of Downy dreams Preened our soft paper wings
Flutter all through the night And we can pull the clouds around This paper hanger skyline Summer smile again 轉載來自 ※Mojim.com 魔鏡歌詞網 And you can disappear But I'd rather be here
Hello, down there The morning made of sailors in the air Keeping the midnight stars held high We are captains of the sky, waving goodbye
Hello, down there The morning made of sailors in the air Keeping the midnight stars held high We are captains of the sky, waving goodbye
Hello, down there The morning made of sailors in the air Keeping the midnight stars held high We are captains of the sky, waving goodbye
2.Brielle(布莉兒)
(修改) There's a hand written note pressed in the door of her screened-in porch And I am sailing away, recalling that day, miles from shore She was still wearing white and robin's egg blue; her grandmother's dress When I left early this year, how I wound up here is anyone's guess When the new sights grow old, and I start to feel cold, I'll sail home again
Goodbye Brielle, only whispers can tell of the sweet dreams that we knew so well I'll see you around our dear ocean town The frozen days we set ablaze send me drifting away Like a butterfly, you floated by, and now you're alone I wish I knew when I'll be back again So until then, I wish you well My dear Brielle
Strolling over the sand and cobblestone paths that wind through the trees 轉載來自 ※Mojim.com 魔鏡歌詞網 Breathing the sweet forest air makes the bluebird aware that she could be free When the new sights grow old, and I start to feel cold, I'll sail home again
Goodbye Brielle, only whispers can tell of the sweet dreams that we knew so well I'll see you around our dear ocean town The frozen days we set ablaze send me drifting away Like a butterfly, you floated by, and now you're alone I wish I knew when I'll be back again So until then, I wish you well So until then, I wish you well I love you my darling, farewell My dear Brielle My dear Brielle
3.Steady As She Goes(昂然的她)
(修改) Farewell, nightmares I am free Welcomes dreams of sweet dreams that settle over me
What lies out there, no one knows The tide could bring in anything So steady as she goes Steady as she goes
I can feel her as I lie awake But she's back home still waiting alone when morning breaks Post-war novels keep us alive And I know she'll be dying to see me when I arrive
Hey dear sister, how are you? I've longed to see you ever since you made your stage debut 轉載來自 ※Mojim.com 魔鏡歌詞網 We always knew you would be The most angelic actress this dramatic world would see And the critics do agree
Several state lines keep us apart But don't lose sleep 'cause I'll always keep you in my heart Crashing white caps keep us alive And she knows I'll be dying to see her the next time I arrive
What lies out there, no one knows The tide could bring in anything So steady as she goes Steady as she goes Steady as she goes

4.Explorers(探險家)
(修改) This old mountainside where we used to reside Is slowly recalling the things we discovered inside Oh, the crystal caves
We shed both our jackets and I hammered brackets From old metal chairs to the walls for a crude set of stairs To lead us down
And you tied a rope to the steepening slope A jerry-rigged harness so we could descend in the dark But the tide came in
And we found ourselves in the sea, Deep underwater we both found that we could still breathe So we spent the day submerged And we swam the evening away
The water was clear like the pure atmosphere As we kicked and fluttered through caverns all cluttered with age In the afterglow
轉載來自 ※Mojim.com 魔鏡歌詞網 We swam hand in hand over white satin sand And you left a ribbon to honor the pale gibbon moon But that was years ago...
And we never came up for air down there We can go anywhere
The old world was dying while we took off flying Like peregrine falcons beneath the transparent blue waves Far below the surf
And we spent the hours with submarine flowers I knew I'd remember that day in November as we felt alive again
'Cause we found ourselves in the sea, Deep underwater we both found that we could still breathe So we spent the day submerged And we swam the evening away We swam the evening away

5.A Little Opera Goes a Long Way(唱不停的歌劇)
(修改) I'll save you An echo from the home And I'll paint you A dreamscape on your bedroom wall
Pretend you're not alone Like you are center stage on Broadway 'Cause when you're on your own A little opera goes a long way
I'll meet you Where the page proclaims the end And I'll make do With the fractions my reactions bend
Pretend you're not alone Like you are center stage on Broadway 'Cause when you're on your own A little opera goes a long way 轉載來自 ※Mojim.com 魔鏡歌詞網
I'll capsize this highrise And weld a cable-car Then I'll drive down to some southwestern town And end up where you are
Pretend you're not alone Like you are center stage on Broadway 'Cause when you're on your own A little opera goes a long way
I'll reset your silhouette And be your parasol So hold on to your fluorescent view And if you slip and fall I will catch you
6.Tennis Elbow(網球肘)
(修改) Cell phones and travel stations Ringtones and new relations Say hello to all your friends for me
Several calls are made to Thailand Wound up in Prince Edward Island And my head feels like it's ready to blow
I served and scratched a rainbow So curved, I felt the pain go Through my joints And now I don't wanna play
Swinging down, I sent the birdie Downtown, at 7:30 轉載來自 ※Mojim.com 魔鏡歌詞網 And I'm convinced that I've got tennis elbow
We are lost in the sound Close your eyes And I will twirl you around
We are lost in the sound Close your eyes And I will twirl you around
We are lost in the sound Close your eyes And I will twirl you around
7.Blue and Red(藍與紅)
(修改) Oh, satelite above (Where are you?) So many things I have to tell you of (Please come back soon) You went through an open door Or a hole in the floor You vanished and I can't see you anymore
Dreams never die when we sleep Beneath the open sky in the deep Shades overhead of blue and red Is this the end? Will you come back again?
I searched beyond the clouds 轉載來自 ※Mojim.com 魔鏡歌詞網 (Are you there?) And I walked sadly onward through the crowds (Alone somewhere?) And I saw beyond the blur To right where you were And I beheld a sight so pure
Dreams never die when we sleep Beneath the open sky in the deep Shades overhead of blue and red Is this the end? Will you come back again?

8.Alaska(阿拉斯加)
(修改) I was on the road despite the holiday Winter green daydreams softly collided And took all my headaches away
When did I arrive? I don't recall ever leaving Alaska Why do I hate the dark when I'm alone?
I was on my way to a brighter day I'm still chasing around But somehow I believe that this is home It's so good to be home
I was on the ground 轉載來自 ※Mojim.com 魔鏡歌詞網 When I recalled the day That my discompsure left me forever And swept all my troubles away
When did I arrive? I don't recall ever leaving Alaska Why do I hate the dark when I'm alone?
I was on my way to a brighter day I'm still chasing around But somehow I believe that this is home It's so good to be home

9.I Live Alone(我一個人住)
(修改) I was 22, alone with nothing to do and I couldn't sleep Cause all those cold days returned with their old ways of causing New apathy
I live alone, I live alone
She was 21, wishing she lived by the sun, the sand and the sea So I suggested she'd move out fast and not be the last To leave and be free
I live alone, I live alone I live alone, I live alone
Sweet summer day I'm so afraid So take me away 轉載來自 ※Mojim.com 魔鏡歌詞網
We were 17, longing to live in between The earth and the stars So I suggested we'd grow up fast and not be the last And look where we are
With no connection I saw your reflection at home In my bedroom mirror And I felt young again when I saw what we could've been In all of those years
I live alone, I live alone I live alone, I live alone
10.Take Me Somewhere Nice(帶我去遠方)
(修改) Take me somewhere nice To some tired island in your heart called paradise Though we wander home, we both feel alone Like escapees with nowhere to go I can think of a thousand ways To get good and lost beyond these hopeless days
Where we'll rendezvous out of the blue And take a deep breath, just we two And we'll be so far gone, the oars will row on And we will happily wave so long
If we hook a dream, and it doze us back down this open stream We'll say hello Take us wherever you go
轉載來自 ※Mojim.com 魔鏡歌詞網 Take me somewhere deep Cause I'm quite exhausted and I need to sleep Or climb the great divide or wake up beside myself Just to know I'm alive Every weight around pays me a visit and drags my eyelids down
They sting my growing pains, iced in the veins of a guy Who's not ready to die If I may be so bold, I'll weather the cold 'Cause I'm not afraid to grow old
If we hook a dream, and it doze us back down this open stream We'll say hello Take us wherever you go
11.Sailboats(小帆船)
(修改) Sailboats wish that they were stars Floating softly in the sky Among our dreams that bid goodbye Moving through transparent space Drifting through the stratosphere And onward 'till they disappear
These continents, from overhead Look like tiny paper shapes Intricately set in place Below the misty mountain clouds There's a lovely silver bay Where sunset sailors often hide away
Scooba diver in the lock Speedboat driver in the dock Sailplane pilot in the blue, take me up there with you The world looks brighter from this high altitude
I was walking through the trees (Sailboats wish that they were stars) And I was swimming through the sees ('Cause they don't know who they are) I was falling through the air When it hit me right there My eyes are tired I don't even care
轉載來自 ※Mojim.com 魔鏡歌詞網 An airplane carred me to bed Where I slept above the coast and dreamt I had become a ghost I sail above the frozen peaks Deep in cold cathedral caves Across the hills and far beyond the waves
Take the car on the run Fly the jet to the sun And bring the spacecraft in soon While I play chess with the moon I feel like sleeping through this cold afternoon
Once in 1964 (Sailboats wish that they were stars) An actress ran on the shore ('Cause they don't know who they are) And though you'll never return I love you, Audrey Hepburn Sometimes I can see your face in the crowd
There are sailboats throughout this brilliant sky But you cannot pick them out if you can't fly I'm glad the Earth doesn't care If I go up there If you want to, just ask me and I'll take you along
