(推两首经典的复古老歌~)
来自美国加州的Sugarcult乐队成立于1998年,《Palm Trees and Power Lines》这张专辑发行于2004年4月13日,专辑名称的由来是乐队成员居住地方的风景,视野中的天际线总是被棕榈树和繁复的电线占据。
乐队成员目前的阵容为Tim Pagnotta(主唱&节奏吉他)、 Airin Older(贝斯&伴唱)、Marko DeSantis(主音吉他)和Kenny Livingston(鼓手)。这张专辑是他们在经历了长时间忙碌的行程之后的作品,Marko说,这十二首歌记录了他们过去两年的生活和感悟。
作为singer/guitarist/songwriter的Tim Pagnotta写下了这首counting stars,较之乐队其他快节奏的歌曲不同,这首歌节奏缓慢但不拖沓,字里行间透露出主人公的后悔之意,也标志着Tim Pagnotta作为唱作人身份的日趋成熟,他也毫不在意向公众展示自己的另一面。这首歌虽然没有“Memory”和“She's the Blade”这么火,但这种暗黑颓废情绪化的调调还是带动了每一位听者,你能深切地感受到写这首歌的人那种纠结挣扎的内心情感。“做了许多错事,但我本意并不是真的想伤害你(虽然这种话听起来更混蛋- -)只能继续假装自己很ok... 现在才明白生命如此短暂而我又是这么渺小的存在...”

hey i wanna crawl out of my skin
apologize for all my sins
all the things i should of said to you
hey
i can't make it go away
over and over in my brain again
all the things i should of said to you
counting stars wishing i was okay
crashing down was my biggest mistake
i never ever meant to hurt you
i only did wut i had to
counting stars again
hey
i'll take this day by day by day
under the covers i'm okay i guess
life's too short and i feel small
counting stars wishing i was okay
crashing down was my biggest mistake
i never ever meant to hurt you
i only did wut i had to
counting stars again (x50)
counting stars again (x50)
counting stars again (x50)
counting stars again (x50)
counting stars again (x50)
counting stars again (x50)
