初识ours是乌鸦电台首播幸福电台接着播过的那首dizzy，然后就对他们发生了很大的兴趣。专辑肯定没得买，在电骡上拖下来了这张，朋友传了另外一张Precious。 主唱声音实在很性感，没歌词的时候不知道他在唱什么，有了歌词还是不太知道。 Ours - Dizzy We ran We starved the things That feel Outback The drunken waters steal from me If we beat him down, will he stay? He's a little dizzy I feel it starting to take me Where did everybody go? I need them now To save me We fell, when they choked the things that feed How come... we hurt the one's we need? Lay down, and stretch upon the sea If we beat him down, will he stay? He's a little dizzy I feel it starting to take me Where did everybody go? I need them now If we beat him down... will he stay? If we beat him down, will he stay? He's a little dizzy I feel it starting to take me Where did everybody go? I need them now If we beat him down

Released in 1976, the album features an eponymous seven-part suite written by Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson, with lyrics written by Neil Peart telling a dystopian story set in the year 2112. The album is sometimes described as a concept album although the songs on the second side are unrelated to the plot of the suite. Rush repeated this arrangement on the 1978 album Hemispheres.

No Need to Argue is the second studio album by Irish rock band The Cranberries, released in 1994. It was the band's most successful album, and has sold about 17 million copies worldwide. It contains the band's most successful single to date, "Zombie". The album's mood is darker than that on Everybody Else Is Doing It, So Why Can't We?. It shows a more mature performance by lyricist and vocalist Dolores O'Riordan, writing about war, death, love and disappointment. Her voice is clearer, without the previous album's double and triple voice layering. In some of the songs, the band decided to take on a rockier and heavier side, using distortion and increasing the volume. The song "Yeat's Grave" [sic] is about William Butler Yeats, and quotes one of his poems, No Second Troy. The hit song "Zombie", written by lead singer Dolores O'Riordan, is according to her about the IRA bombings in 1993 that resulted in the death of two children.

Japanese edition of the New York indie act's eagerly anticipated sophomore album is scheduled to include one bonus track. Details TBA. RCA. 2003.

二手玫瑰：中国摇滚乐中最妖娆的一支乐队；同时，也是一支严肃的摇滚乐队，比超载严肃比唐朝严肃比大部分同志都严肃的好乐队，他们严肃的搞笑，严肃的调侃，严肃的批判，严肃的反省，严肃的扭着大秧歌，严肃的和你捉着迷藏。 二手玫瑰突破了千篇一律的摇滚格调，并直言不讳地批评现代人心理病变和假道学。 他们夸张的表演和幽默智慧的唱词被梁龙用东北二人转的腔调唱出，你可以感觉，这个不甘自我平庸的团体抛弃了中国摇滚的油腔滑调和不思进取，从民间音乐中吸引根源的力量，并在细节处表现出隐藏在形式背后的无边想像力。

During the mid-'70s, the Rolling Stones remained massively popular, but their records suffered from Jagger's fascination with celebrity and Keith's worsening drug habit. By 1978, both punk and disco had swept the group off the front pages, and Some Girls was their fiery response to the younger generation. Opening with the disco-blues thump of "Miss You," Some Girls is a tough, focused, and exciting record, full of more hooks and energy than any Stones record since Exile on Main St. Even though the Stones make disco their own, they never quite take punk on their own ground. Instead, their rockers sound harder and nastier than they have in years. Using "Star Star" as a template, the Stones run through the seedy homosexual imagery of "When the Whip Comes Down," the bizarre, borderline-misogynistic vitriol of the title track, Keith's ultimate outlaw anthem, "Before They Make Me Run," and the decadent closer, "Shattered." In between, they deconstruct the Temptations' "(Just My) Imagination," unleash the devastatingly snide country parody "Far Away Eyes," and contribute "Beast of Burden," one of their very best ballads. Some Girls may not have the back-street aggression of their '60s records, or the majestic, drugged-out murk of their early-'70s work, but its brand of glitzy, decadent hard rock still makes it a definitive Stones album.

随着岁月的流失和成长的痛苦，我们不断的迷失，再迷失。而身后所有的人、事物，甚至是自己都在经历着遗忘或者被遗忘。所有的一切都已变得功利和世俗，包括音乐。走在被遗忘的边缘，例数着“感恩之死”，“大门”，“地下丝绒”等昔日的先锋。我试图去回忆一切，却发现他们虽然如此的遥远，却依然使人兴致盎然。 十月的到来，使我突然想起Shannon Hoon和他的Blind Melon乐队。曾经在No Rain，Change等歌曲中带给我无限快乐的Hoon，已离去八年。在怀着一种悲伤和失望的心情中，我试图去唤醒他们的一切。 在昔日的嘻皮之都，1989年美国西岸的洛杉矶，阳光还是依然充足、明媚，空气中照旧撒发着那种自由、和谐的味道。在这懒洋洋、而使人感到万分惬意的地方，一群年轻人的笑声似乎使整个城市都有些好奇，他们笑的是如此的开心。来自于西点的吉他手和贝斯手Rogers Stevens和Brad Smith，结识了成长在东部的Shannon Hoon，以及宾夕法尼亚的吉他手Christopher Thorn和他的同伴鼓手Glen Graham。于是，顺其自然的，即将重塑嘻皮精神的Blind Melon由此诞生。而各自不同的成长环境和背景好像从一开始就注定了Hoon和“盲瓜”们音乐经历中的戏剧性和艺术的交融性。 当他们把只有四首作品的demo集The Goodfoot Workshop寄到各个唱片公司后，随即就引发了Capital唱片公司的注意，而最终在Blind Melon成军后的两年签下了他们。然而，在经历他们的第一张正式录音的唱片时，情况到真的是一波三折。与老牌艺人Neil Young长期合作的制作人David Briggs担任了他们的首张EP ：The Sippin’ Time Sessions的录制工作。但是，对于一个崭新的富有嘻皮精神、满腹想法的年轻乐队，老Briggs好像也有些束手无策，成品的风格和乐队格格不入，远远的背离了Blind Melon那种饱满的热情和朴实无华的乐风，在失望和不满的情况下，Hoon和Blind Melon迎来了一个苦闷的时期。 在这段唱片出版裹足不前的时期，Hoon通过其姐姐的关系熟识了经典摇滚乐团Gun N’ Roses的Axl Rose。Axl深深地为Hoon的才能所感动。随即邀请Hoon为他们的专辑Use Your Illusion中的一些歌曲做背景和声。其中，就包括那首日后被广为传唱Don’t Cry。甚至到了最后，Hoon的身影就乾脆出现在Gun N’ Roses的音乐录影带中，如果Blind Melon就此告一段落的话，也许Gun N’ Roses真的会完全的吸纳Hoon。接下来的1992年，还没有专辑作品的Blind Melon还是凭借着良好的口碑和在音乐圈中不可忽视的影响力，被力邀参与了“MTV 120分钟”的演出。好像这就意味着他们的好运气从此开始。 同年，随着Temple of the Dog，Pearl Jam等乐队的王牌制作人Rick Parashar的到来，乐队重新投入到的专辑录制工作中。然而这次合作，Hoon和“盲瓜”们终于找到了自己的感觉，他们的心情也随着天气一样进入了无比风光的9月——Blind Melon的处男同名专辑正式问世。这张才华横溢的作品中，Parashar对他们的出色洞悉打开了Hoon的内心和才华的大门。Hoon独特的嗓音以及对于歌词的天赋使Blind Melon看起来是那么的出众。在Dear Ol’ Dad中，是Hoon对于未来美好的向往 “I'm like a pigeon that’s spreading its wings to fly away to better things”。歌曲Change则被认为预言着Hoon的死亡，大致是因为包含着这样的词句：“when your deepest thoughts are broken, keep on dreamin boy ，cause when you stop dreamin its time to die”以及“When life is hard you have to change”等等。专辑中最出色的歌曲（不用说，也是Blind Melon最经典的作品！）No Rain和我们分享的是关于九十年代嘻皮精神现实生活的故事，Hoon出生在（对他来讲）是一个错误的年代，一切都得不到理解，只有孤独和不断逃避“All I can say is that my life is pretty plain，You don't like my point of view。Ya think that I'm insane。Its not sane... its not sane”，“…all I can do is read a book to stay awake。It rips my life away but its a great escape...escape...escape”。他们的处女作无论是从歌词到演奏技术上（尤其是Soak the Sin，Deserted等歌曲）都表现出他们已是一支成熟的乐队。当然，这就意味着，他们有理由相信自己会得到更多的关注。 虽然，Blind Melon的现场演出很多，在1993年，他们还参与了Neil Young，Lenny kravitz的巡演。但是直到94年，他们才正式以自己的名义进行演出。也正是在94年，乐队得到了他们所期盼已久的回报，同名专辑为他们带来了格莱美提名的最佳新晋乐队以及最佳摇滚表演奖。还参与了同年的Woodstock以及9月Rolling Stone的演唱会。乐队的第二张专辑的录制也在Andy Wallace的监制下展开了。 次年，专辑Soup于8月发表。成熟化的Hoon和他的Blind Melon使整张专辑的风格更趋向民谣化，作品更加平实，但不乏流畅的旋律和饱满的吉他riff。歌曲2×4，Dumptruck，Wilt等延续了同名专辑中Soak the Sin的Blues-oriented路线；Skinned是关于连环杀手Ed Gein的故事；而Walk则是一首动听的Folk Rock作品；在New Life中，表现了Hoon此时此地真实的心情，此前的一个月，Hoon的女友为他们带来了第一个孩子，这使Hoon得以重拾希望，再次审视自己的生活：在歌中他这样的唱到“'Cause now she's telling me she'll have my baby，and a faithful father I am to be。When I'm looking into the eyes of our own baby，Will it bring new life into me?”，“I'll always try to　justify the way I've been behaving”莫明奇妙地的是歌中却同时充满矛盾和迷惘的词句“How to live in a world we live in now”。这好像是一种暗示，并非Hoon不在意这燃起的新的希望。然而，这却使他加剧挣扎在自己的现实世界和理想世界中，并且他的身体也每况愈下。10月21日，Hoon被发现由于吸毒过量死于乐队的巡演车上。这本是个可以预料的结果，但每个人都没有想到这一天会如此早的到来。 ——这一年，他只有28岁。 之后，乐队不得不陷入了困境。没有了Hoon，就等于失去了乐队的灵魂。直到1996年，乐队的其他成员才将Hoon生前已录制好的歌曲加入乐器，以他女儿Nico Blue的名义出版了最后一张专辑Nico。不用说，这也是对Hoon的纪念。并且，专辑的部分收入将捐献给MAP（Musicians Assistant Program），用来帮助那些吸毒的艺人摆脱毒品和酒精的困扰。专辑中，收录了他们成名作No Rain的Accoustic版本，Stevens和Smith创作的第一支作品Soul One，还有两首歌曲和John Lennon有关：向Lennon致敬的John Sinclair和Hoon从Albert Goldman所著的《the Lives of John Lennon》书中汲取的灵感的All That I Need。这是一张最接近Hoon的唱片，他那天真、神奇的嗓音生动地展现了一个九十年代真正的嬉皮。伴随着CD机中一遍又一遍的歌曲Life Ain’t So Shitty，这个关于Hoon和“盲瓜”短暂的故事该说再见了！然而，在每一个糟糕的不能再糟糕的日子里，你是否会有Hoon的那种Life Ain’t So Shitty的感觉呢？ --- from
