Monkey Majik feat. Yoshida Brothers - Change

我這人嚴格來說不怎麼看MV，
電視的Music station也沒有24小時播放畫面，
就連自己喜歡聽的西洋音樂也不確定榜上名次究竟是誰。
我並不知道接下來要推薦的這支Monkey Majik有沒有衝過日本公信榜，
因為在過去的再過去一點點之前，我是完全不聽東洋音樂的啊。
接下來你會開始混淆這支猴子到底所屬哪個國家：
雙主唱是加拿大兄弟檔（MV中，Rap是弟弟，主Vox是哥哥），
其他兩位團員來自仙台和札幌。
聽說是道地的日本音樂獨立廠牌出的廠。

我不太好意思漲著臉並滔滔不絕地介紹他們的音樂，
因為我是昨天三更半夜才第一次聽見，
並且聽到grooving很強的音樂就會莫名地很興奮啊。
而且，不知道到底是什麼東西在作祟，
這支MV我也莫名地對tone，
剪接的流暢度跟歌曲一樣正點。
開頭前後那個背包客詭譎斃了，
而戴面具的背包客也符合歌詞中的訴求意識形態。
歌曲叫做change，He wanna change，但是結局，never gonna change，
現實與非現實主義都在開放的想像空間中到位。
跟我的人生哲學很相似，
絕望，希望／用力地擰毛巾就對了。 
You had your wishes, but you threw them away. 
希望是為了讓你絕望而才在的。 

我喜歡歌詞的第一段，
營造腦袋裡對立的思考邏輯氛圍，（畢竟鮮少人會拿石頭砸自己的腳）
還有這一切的造果都是你自找的麻煩跟你真是他媽的活該悲慘。
這麼說起來的話這首歌真的很喃喃自語，
絕對無法pop的讓大家嚷嚷上口，
但也是絕對痛苦不堪地餘音繞樑啊。


所以，跳舞吧。


 ----這篇文章前面很正式，後半段很情緒化，因為目前我的生活狀態種種的面對上，
在這首歌能找到太多共鳴跟舒壓了，i wanna change！___ 


PS, 吉田兄弟的三味線跟12女子好像噢，當傳統跟流行結合搭配淋漓盡致的時候，真的好讓人沸騰啊。 


Yoshida Brothers and Monkey Majik- Change　

You had your wishes, but you threw them away.


It made you happy, yeah, for more than one day.
But now your lost and cannot figure a way,


to get out of this lie that comforts you.


And you that I would lie to comfort you.











Renew your wishes, yeah, get out of this fray.


You'll never change if you keep running away.


A little time you need to figure a way.


'Cause you know it doesn't lie in front of you,


and you know it doesn't lie in front of you.








I need a change


'Cause it's all gone wrong for me.


(I want) somebody else to leave me now.











I need a change


'Cause it's all gone wrong for me.


(I want) somebody else to lead me now,


I want somebody else to lead me now.


I said somebody else to lead me now.











Brothers on top chasing all the melodies.


Never can stop 'cause it's a necessity.


Your like the way the northern borders 


They make you dance


I think we're changing the sound of sweet romance.


Time to party, juni(12) hon no ude.


Everybody wants to get started


Takatantan! Sweet sounds of the shamisen


Tsugaru style if you know where they're coming from.


Wouldn't be nice if the whole world got along?


Even on the small scale change is possible.

We keep saying these things,


don't even know what they mean,


as if we've never seen the other end of the street.


Start travelling, communicating, educating.


Sing them your song.


You'd be suprised how many people want to hear what your saying.


Apples are red,


but taste the same as green. Wooo!











I need a change.


'Cause it's all gone wrong for me.


(I want) somebody else to lead me now.









I need a change.


'Cause it's all gone wrong for me.


(I want) somebody else to lead me now.

I want somebody else to lead me now.

I said somebody else to lead me now.










----------------------musical interlude---------------------------








I need a change.


'Cause it's all gone wrong for me.


(I want) somebody else to lead me now.








I need a change.


'Cause it's all gone wrong for me.


(I want) somebody else to lead me now.








I need a change.


'Cause it's all gone wrong for me.


(I want) somebody else to lead me now.







I need a change


'Cause it's all gone wrong for me.


(I want) somebody else to lead me now,


I want somebody else to lead me now.


I said somebody else to lead me now.
