Arctic Monkeys - I Bet You Look Good On The Dancefloor









聽ICRT時,我最近發現的新樂團

有人比較期待的是這一首When The Sun Goes Down…。
而除了I BET YOU LOOK GOOD ON THE DANCEFLOOR以外,
我也很喜歡FROM THE RITZ TO THE RUBBLE,
喜歡這首開始的喃喃,還有越來越快的速度感,情緒跟著節奏的擺動。(好奇的人也可以去YouTube找MV,拍的也滿意境的)。對了,喃喃之音令我想起壞小子羅比威廉斯。
The View From The Afternoon也拍的還不賴,
但是能放上來的MV我盡量重複性別那麼高,雖然這種慾望實在很難控制。
對了,I BET YOU LOOK GOOD ON THE DANCEFLOOR好像是翻唱Sugababes的歌,(我不認識耶阿咧)
我很愛很POP的歌,被翻唱很多種的版本,正所謂的Pop Goes Punk。
也喜歡Punk Goes Pop,代表最喜歡的應該是Yellowcard翻唱Michelle Branch的Everywhere___。
也偏愛Acoustic Version。任何類型都可以,Rock感覺會更強烈…。Rock Goes Acoustic也可以。
布蘭妮的Baby 灣摸機該,我好像還有瑪莉連曼森版本。

摘自:
點來看
藝人名稱:Arctic Monkeys (北極潑猴)
專輯名稱:Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not (就是屌)
發行公司:EMI
音樂型態:Rock
封面提供:EMI
平均年齡不超過20歲的四個英式搖滾樂迷,
萬萬也沒想到,
他們所組成的「北極潑猴Arctic Monkeys」,
竟然一舉刷新綠洲合唱團Oasis保持將近十三年的銷售記錄。
刀鋒般銳利的大剌剌歌詞、加上奔騰跳躍的吉他刷弦,
不但讓全英歌迷幾近歇斯底里般地闖進北極潑猴的演唱會,
更讓首張專輯《就是屌》,創下首週三十六萬張的驚人銷售,
當下刷新全英排行史上,當日當週的排行銷售冠軍紀錄!

這不過是一個2003年才成軍於英國Sheffield的年輕樂團,
但如今我們已經見到他們勢如破竹地奪下全英音樂獎「最佳英國新進藝人」獎項,
首張專輯「Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not」得到並NME音樂週報給予10分滿分評價
在正式發售當天便在英國大賣近12萬張成為英國銷售最快的首張專輯之一。
成員包括了Alex Turner (主唱/吉他)、Jamie Cook (吉他)、Andy Nicholson (貝斯)與Matt Helders (鼓)。將The Jam、The Clash、The Smiths等經典樂團列為重要音樂影響的Arctic Monkeys,結合著主唱Alex筆下被拿來與Jarvis Cocker(Pulp)、Paul Weller等前輩相提並論的歌詞文字,在這張「2006年最受期待首張專輯之一」的「Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not」中,彷彿是集The Strokes的紐約龐克造型與The Libertines的英倫Neo-Classic Punk精神於一身,從開場曲「The View From The Afternoon」與獲NME選為全年最佳單曲第11名的「Fake Tales Of San Francisco」踩著爽朗的Disco-Punk/Punk-Funk節奏而來,到閉幕曲「A Certain Romance」揉合著輕盈Ska氣息,一首首短小精悍的龐克樂章都在兩把吉他的飽滿聲線/音牆引領下傳輸著強勁能量。此外、「Riot Van」流露著媲美The Jam、The Kinks慢板作品的內斂情感,「Mardy Bum」那讓人想起The Bluetones的清爽Folky氣息,
則展現了Arctic Monkeys創作上的細膩層面。



I BET YOU LOOK GOOD ON THE DANCEFLOOR

Stop making the eyes at me, I'll stop making the eyes at you
And what it is that surprises me, is that I don't really want you to
And your shoulders are frozen, cold as the night
Over you're an explosion, you’re dynamite
Your name isn't Rio, but I don't care for sand
Lighting the fuse might result in a bang

I bet that you look good on the dancefloor
I don't know if you’re looking for romance or...
I don't know what you’re looking for
I bet that you look good on the dancefloor
Dancing to electro-pop like a robot from 1984

I wish you'd stop ignoring me, because you're sending me to despair
Without a sound you’re calling me, and I don't think it's very fair
That your shoulders are frozen, cold as the night
Oh you’re an explosion, you’re dynamite
Your name isn't Rio, but I don't care for sand
Lighting the fuse might result in a bang

Oh there int no love no, Montague’s or Capulets
just banging tunes in DJ sets and
Dirty dancefloors and dreams of naughtiness
