La Roux 档案
LA ROUX一支来自英国伦敦的电子乐队
来势汹汹 两支单曲 Quicksand 和 In for the kill 均在英国单曲榜获得了极好的成绩
第二支单曲 In For The Kill 一上榜就来到了英国单曲榜的第11名 接下来的两周里 这首单曲前进了4个位置 来到第七 直奔第二
La Roux曾入选BBC英国广播网评选的 2009超新声 第15名
她们还是Lily Allen在三月全英巡演的表演嘉宾
La Roux是法语橙红色 恰如你所看到的乐队主唱Elly Jackson的那扎眼的鸡冠头 本身就是一骇俗的标志
她们的歌曲 歌词干脆利落 有点边缘的风格 但是细细听来 不管是鼓点 节奏 还是声音 都非常的耐听和有特点 让你不自觉地 就按下了循环播放
Quicksand 的MV中 着实被Elly Jackson的气质和声线所震慑 而且拍摄手法颇为独特 依然以橙红色为基本色调 值得一觑
她有的不是仇恨 却比仇恨更令人生畏
她有的不是高亢 却比高亢更高一筹
La Roux把我们从2009年带回了1970年时代 法国新浪潮 尽管那时候我们还没有诞生
如此有实力和潜力的歌者
期待着La Roux 爆发小宇宙

品读
尤其喜欢La roux的这首歌 一开始传来清晰有节奏感的鼓点 让人忍不住跟着一起律动 电音的迂回 反复 耐人寻味
突然主唱有点嘶哑的声音响起 应和着呼声 仿佛看见的是 暮光之城 中 那种异域的情调
副歌 有些可惜和无奈的语调 重复着 I'M GOING IN FOR THE KILL 刺激着神经的末梢
主旋律再次响起 却与第一次并不一样 仿佛是故事的另一面 带你走进了一个关于 爱 与不爱的世界
尤其喜欢——
They say we can love who we trust / 都说所爱之人应当值得信任
Oooh but what is love without lust? / 呜...但若是没有情欲又何来爱情？
Two hearts with accurate devotions / 两颗心都怀着绝对的虔诚
Oooh but what are feelings without emotions? / 呜...但若是没有情感又何来感情？
很轻描淡写的语调和笔调 但是却听得人心里隐隐作痛 仿佛只是轻轻一笔 就将人性 特别是大都市中现实到不能再现实的事情阐明
BRIDGE部分 变成了有一点空灵的声音 但是鼓点依旧存在 仿佛是给你片刻的沉思 去思考着 你是否也是故事中的一个人物
但主旋律又再次响起 却又不再与之前一样 只是轻轻告诉你
不要对号入座 不过是一首歌而已
音乐戛然而止 留给你心里长长的缺口
几个女孩子而已 却唱到了你的心里

La Roux <Bulletproof> 歌词
Been there done that messed around
I'm having fun, don't put me down
I'll never let you sweep me off my feet
I won't let you in again
The messages I tried to send
My information's just not going in
Burning bridges shore to shore
I break away from something more
I'm not turned on to love until it's cheap
Been there done that messed around
I'm having fun don't put me down
I'll never let you sweep me off my feet
This time baby
I'll be bulletproof
This time baby
I'll be bulletproof
I won't let you turn around
And tell me now I'm much too proud
To walk away from something when it's dead
Do do do your dirty words
Come out to play when you are hurt?
There's certain things that should be left unsaid
Tick tick tick tick on the watch
And life's too short for me to stop
Oh baby, your time is running out
I won't let you turn around
And tell me now I'm much too proud
All you do is fill me up with doubt
This time baby
I'll be bulletproof
This time baby
I'll be bulletproof
This time baby
I'll be bulletproof
This time baby
I'll be bulletproof
This time I'll be
Bulletproof
This time I'll be
Bulletproof
This time baby
I'll be bulletproof
This time baby
I'll be bulletproof
This time baby
This time baby
This time baby
This time...
This time baby
This time baby
I'll be bulletproof
La Roux <Quicksand> 歌词
I'm the obsessor
Holding your hand
It seems you have forgotten
About your man
Alone in the darkness
My bed's a different land
Your touch intensifies
And I'm in the quicksand
I'm in the quicksand
I'm in the quicksand
You're the upsettor
Stroking my hand
What's my position?
I don't understand
Am I your possession?
Am I in demand?
Oh when you turn to me
I'm in the quicksand
I'm in the quicksand
I'm in the quicksand
You, you moved into my mind again oh
You, walking around and free oh
Oh I could let you stay
But I'm walking on broken ground again
Oh, oh when will I learn?
All you do is push me back in the dark
I'm in the quicksand
I'm in the quicksand
I'm in the quicksand
I'm in the quicksand
I'm in the quicksand
La Roux <Bulletproof> 歌词

La Roux <I'm not your toy> 歌词
Your love is like a stubborn youth
That you'd rather just deny
I'm walking on a broken roof
But I'm looking at the sky.
It's all false love and affection,
You don't want me, you just like the attention
Yes, it's all false love and affection,
You don't like me, you just want the attention.
I'm not your toy;
This isn't another girl-meets-boy
I'm not your toy;
This isn't another girl-meets-boy.
Your love hides in a smoky night,
I can never find the truth
Boy, your touches leave me mystified
I wish I could believe in you.
It's all false love and affection,
You don't want me, you just like the attention
Yes, it's all false love and affection,
You don't like me, you just want the attention.
I'm not your toy;
This isn't another girl-meets-boy
I'm not your toy;
This isn't another girl-meets-boy
I'm not your toy;
This isn't another girl-meets-boy
I'm not your toy;
This isn't another girl-meets-boy
It's all false love and affection,
You don't want me, you just like the attention
Yes, it's all false love and affection,
You don't like me, you just want the attention.
I'm not your toy;
This isn't another girl-meets-boy
I'm not your toy;
This isn't another girl-meets-boy
I'm not your toy;
This isn't another girl-meets-boy
I'm not your toy;
This isn't another girl-meets-boy
La Roux <Tigerlily> 歌词
Tonight out on the streets
I'm gonna follow you
Tell you all about a scene
That you would kill for
You're gonna love what's
Burning right in front of you
But you won't see it
By the light of the sun
Come out Tigerlily
You're caressing me
I'll take you up
I'll turn you on
I'll take your apathy
I wouldn't lie to you Blossom
Won't you let it go
I'm gonna give you all you want
And don't you know
That you
I know you better than this
I could be here when you call
I'll make you top of the list
And in the crush of the dark
I'll be your light in the mist
I can see you burning with desire for a kiss
Psychobabble all upon your lips
They can sell it all they want
But you cannot agree
I don't like the taste
Of their morality
You'll find your bread and your butter
Where you fake it
And put your face in the gutter
Of a snake pit
But our communication is telepathy
What you give is what you get
Out of us naturally
And we can wait til the shadow grows long
And turn the page of a story
That has long since found a home
I know you better than this
I could be here when you call
I'll make you top of the list
And in the crush of the dark
I'll be your light in the mist
I can see you burning with desire for a kiss
Psychobabble all upon your lips
Have you ever felt like you're being followed?
Or watched the ones that held your stare?
Turned around to see who's behind you
To find there's no one there?
Lurking in the dark
There's someone who breathes you night and day
There's a friend who wants so much more
And if they can't have you
They'll never let you walk away
And in the crush of the dark
I'll be your light in the mist
I can see you burning with desire for a kiss
And in the crush of the dark
I'll be your light in the mist
I can see you burning with desire for a kiss
Psychobabble all upon your lips
La Roux <Armour Love> 歌词
You pull on your Armour
And put up defences
Why do you want to?
Because I'm here to protect you
So take it easy
I'll make it so easy
You can lay your head down
And we'll leave it til tomorrow
You seem to believe you belong to somebody else
When you leave me alone in this world
You know that I'm in hell
When you know what it's like
To be lonely and by yourself
When your life is tangled
You wear your disguises
But why do you need to
When I'm standing here beside you?
So take it easy
I'll make it so easy
You can lay your head down
And we'll leave it til tomorrow
You seem to believe you belong to somebody else
When you leave me alone in this world
You know that I'm in hell
When you know what it's like
To be lonely and by yourself
Slipping through my fingers
And into another's
Tell me why won't you turn back?
You seem to believe you belong to somebody else
(You know what it's like you shouldn't have to be told)
When you leave me alone in this world
You know that I'm in hell
(It's hard enough when you're alone in the world)
When you know what it's like
To be lonely and by yourself
You seem to believe you belong to somebody else
(You know what it's like you shouldn't have to be told)
When you leave me alone in this world
You know that I'm in hell
(It's hard enough when you're alone in the world)
When you know what it's like
To be lonely and by yourself
La Roux <Fascination> 歌词
It's been 7 hours long
And your shadow still hangs on
You've been 2 weeks gone
And so tonight I followed you home
There are so many different ways
Of collecting all the strays
The ones that get away
Old fascinations we crave new sensations
Old fascination is feeding my frustration
It's feeding my frustrations
And I haven't got the patience
These sheets are still warm
This bed is our only home
We make arrangements over the phone
Where has all the conversation gone?
There are so many different ways
Of collecting all the strays
The ones that get away
Old fascinations we crave new sensations
Old fascination
