最近迷上的DM單曲b-side:Sea of Sin和Free

  降低部落格點閱率的自殺攻擊(爆)。以前我真的不太注意Depeche Mode的b-side,但是最近突然對兩首b-side很著迷。這兩首歌的旋律都很簡單而反覆重複(不喜歡的人可能會覺得像是一直在唸經),但是歌詞全都很詭異。

Sea of Sin(這個video要趕快看,因為不知道什麼時候會被撤掉XD)

Depeche Mode - Sea Of Sin (Additional Track)



Sea of Sin是World in Your Eyes的b-side。我一直覺得Violator這整張專輯很暗、很安靜,但是並不「平靜」。World in Your Eyes算是這張專輯裡難得比較「歡樂」(?)的歌,跟它的b-side形成重大反差。Sea of Sin的主角感覺上非常樂於自甘墮落,頗令人心驚……(這是墮天使之歌嗎?近年來Martin也穿過黑天使裝哪。)

Sea of sin
I'm swimming in
And I'm taking a dive
My mind's in need
So my body feeds
And it keeps me alive
It gets better and better
As it gets wetter and wetter

Sea of sin
Know where you've been
But I don't care

Sea of sin
Through thick and thin
For better or worse
My mind's in need
So my body feeds
And it quenches my thirst
You look cheaper and cheaper
As we sink deeper and deeper

Sea of sin
Know where you've been
'Cause I've been there

Here under God's sky
His watchful eye
And all of the lies
My consolation prize

Sea of sin
My second skin
My home from home
When I'm in doubt
My hands reach out
And I'm never alone
It gets wetter and wetter
As it gets better and better

Sea of sin
Know where you've been
And I'm prepared
Sea of sin
Know where you've been
Yes I'm aware
Sea of sin
Know where you've been
'Cause I've been there
Sea of sin
Know where you've been
And I don't care
Sea of sin
Know where you've been
And I don't care



Free(歌詞跟歌名看起來完全相反……),Precious的b-side,只有少數版本上面有。這個歌迷製作的mv還沒有被掃掉,真是令人驚訝,同樣要趕快聽:P。



Free的歌詞,第一句就是I shall never be released……(唔,難道是某人表示他會永遠在情海裡打滾嗎?)

I will never be free
I shall never be released
From the chains that bind me
that torture and blind me
and keep me from peace

Oh what heartache
Oh what heartbreak
Following me
Calling to me

I will never be free
I shall never be released
From the chains that bind me
that torture and blind me
and keep me from peace

I will never be free
I will never be laid to rest
Sisters and brothers
I'll never recover
from this tenderness

See what I've prayed
Hear what loves sings
Sad melodies
Enticing me

I will never be free
I shall never be released
From the chains that bind me
that torture and blind me
and keep me from peace

I will never be free
I will never be laid to rest
Sisters and brothers
I'll never recover
from this tenderness
