Woodpigeon - Piano Pieces For Adult Beginners



Don't give anything away
Don't be shy, don't be late

Hold off, it's always best to wait
Another time, another place
Good things come to those who fake
Miss your chance, hesitate

Don't give anything away
Don't deny it never takes

Don't lie to me
You'll give away
Don't try to be
Something you ain't
I just want you to stay

Don't live any other way
Don't do pride, don't do fate

Hold on, it's always best to take
Another chance, another face
Good things come to those you hate
Take it back, it's your place

Don't live any other way
Don't be shy, don't be late

Don't lie to me
You'll give away
Don't try to be
Something you ain't
I just want you to stay

Don't lie to me
You'll give away
Don't try to be
Something you ain't
I just want you to know
I don't want you to go

我常在想,國語歌曲向來被批評是風花雪月不是沒有原因的,流行歌曲當然就不用說了,但一些獨立樂團的作品其實也只是有多一點的寫作題材範圍而已,至於寫所謂的勵志或正面的歌曲,就我所知道的總是流於很公式化的編曲作曲模式,要不然聽來就大同小異,辨識度不高。

在一次偶然機會聽到這首Woodpigeon - Piano Pieces For Adult Beginners,起初對它幾乎沒有任何印象,但開始仔細聆聽歌中含意時,才發現原來勵志歌曲也可以編成這樣,乾淨、單純卻充滿對剛準備步入社會新鮮人的期許與情感。或許這樣的歌曲才是台灣社會真正需要的吧。
