When Mac was swimming I was running late, walking around New Orleans looking for a birthday cake. It was a great surprise to him so many people came. Nobody knows, darling. Nobody knows how they are loved. Don't worry, my darling, the sun's coming up.
Let's get up early now, dive clear into the day. Let's get out of the car with open arms, not wait to be embraced. The flowers that grew, the things that happened since the day you came. Nobody knows, darling. Nobody knows how they are loved. Don't worry, my darling, the sun's coming up.
The Innocence Mission——纯真使团乐队,由Karen Peris和Don Peris夫妻加Mike Bitts组成。乐队成立于上世纪80年代后期,早期曾以轻摇滚风格为主,但浅尝即止。从95年乐队的第三张专辑《Glow》开始,音乐风格开始转向独立民谣,音乐题材充满了乡村童趣。《Birds of My Neighborhood》、《Christ Is My Hope》、《Small Planes》、《Befriended》无不象一张张泛黄的老照片,将乐迷带回梦幻般的童年。04年的翻唱专辑《Now The Day Is Over》中,将多首经典作品重新演绎,包括《不眠》(Stay Awake)、《超越彩虹》(Over The Rainbow)、《月亮河》(Moon River)、《曾经夏日》(Once Upon a Summertime)、《雪绒花》(Edelweiss)……也许没有比这张专辑更适合作为摇篮曲的了。
The Innocence Mission的歌曲绝对算的上辽伤的良药,听他们的歌曲总会让人有种诗情画意的感觉,他们对音乐的执著却一如既往,一直坚持着他们的民谣风,让人敬佩,相信这和每位团员的人生观价值观是分不开的,爱音乐的人在音乐上能够碰到志同道合的朋友是一件很幸运的事情,女主唱karen,她的声音太美了像天使一样,嗓音清澈的像水一样,而他们的曲风也是属于淡淡的民谣风,吉他、弦乐,钢琴和鼓,在他们的歌曲中只有这些基本的乐器,虽然没有华丽的音乐,但是那种质朴之风深入人心,让人过耳不忘,悠扬的吉它,回荡的女声,一种云里雾里的感觉,就像置身于仙境,这样深入人心的音乐你真得不能错过。当你还是一个人的时候,就可以什么都不要想,就像歌里面哼的"别担心,我亲爱的,太阳总会露出他的脸。。。"
