The Tray-She Is

She Is

Do not get me wrong I cannot wait for you to come home
For now you’re not here and I’m not there, it’s like we’re on our own
To figure it out, consider how to find a place to stand
Instead of walking away and instead of nowhere to land

This is going to break me clean in two
This is going to bring me close to you

She is everything I need that I never knew I wanted
She is everything I want that I never knew I needed

It’s all up in the air and we stand still to see what comes back down
I don’t know where it is, I don’t know when, but I want you around
When it falls in place with you and I, we go from if to when
Your side and mine are both behind it’s indication

This is going to bring me clarity
This’ll take the heart right out of me

She is everything I need that I never knew I wanted
She is everything I want that I never knew I needed

This is going to bring me to my knees
I just want to hold you close to me

She is everything I need that I never knew I wanted
She is everything I want that I never knew I needed

偶尔听到这首歌,非常合调,Google了一下歌名原来还有这样一个组合,非常不错,当然最后的结果就是又一张专辑进入了我的收藏了。这张专辑中的 Over My Head 也是非常不错。

The Fray 2002年在丹佛成军,两名核心成员Isaac Slade (吉他,钢琴) 和 Joe King (吉他,主唱)是曾经的校友,没有想到数年后一次在唱片行的相遇成了两人后来组建乐队的契机,意气相投似乎是众多乐队组成的缘分,The Fray也不免俗。Slade和King不久便开始了两人搭档的小型磨合性质的演出,并逐渐摸索形成了自己的风格,既有U2般激扬上进气质又不乏 Cunting Crows根源性的摇滚本质,随着Slade两名前队友鼓手Ben Wysocki和吉他手Dave Welsh的加入,The Fray成型了,频繁在丹佛的演出也为乐队打响了一定的知名度,他们流行的曲调迅速风靡,第一张的Demo更是成了当地电台的热播曲,乐队还被丹佛的 Westword Magazine评为最佳新进乐队。2004年乐队签约Epic Records,处女大碟《How to Save a Life》于2005年9月出版发行
