single_ New Shoes

2008/09/28

我剛開始聽到這首歌是覺得很有趣

不過多聽幾次又覺得不是這麼回事了

Paolo Nutini的聲音很憂鬱,有人說一個19歲的年輕人有這樣的嗓音未免有點強說愁的味道

 

這首歌的歌詞和配樂的外表都很輕鬆愉快

然而聽起來好像並不是那麼快樂

可是我很喜歡這樣的歌曲

這不是令人痛徹心扉的傷心,而是帶有一點不滿地看著這個世界,質問自己到底是為了什麼而活在這個不愉快的氛圍裡

 

Paolo Nutini – New Shoes

Woke up cold one tuesday,
I’m looking tired and feeling quite sick,
I felt like there was something missing in my day to day life,
So i quickly opened the wardrobe,
Pulled out some jeans and a T-Shirt that seemed clean,
Topped it off with a pair of old shoes,
That were ripped around the seams,
And i thought these shoes just don’t suit me.

Hey, I put some new shoes on,
And suddenly everything is right,
I said, hey, I put some new shoes on and everybody’s smiling,
It’s so inviting,
Oh, short on money,
But long on time,
Slowly strolling in the sweet sunshine,
And I’m running late,
And I dont need an excuse,
‘Cause I’m wearing my brand new shoes.

Woke up late one thursday,
And I’m seeing stars as I’m rubbing my eyes,
And I felt like there were two days missing,
As I focused all the time,
And I made my way to the kitchen,
But I had to stop from the shock of what I found,
A room full of all my friends dancing round and round,
And I thought hello new shoes,
Bye bye them blues.

Hey, I put some new shoes on,
And suddenly everything is right,
I said, hey, I put some new shoes on and everybody’s smiling,
It’s so inviting,
Oh, short on money,
But long on time,
Slowly strolling in the sweet sunshine,
And I’m running late,
And I dont need an excuse,
‘Cause I’m wearing my brand new shoes.

Take me wondering through these streets
Where bright lights and angels meet
Stone to stone they take me on
I’m walking to the break of dawn (x2)

Hey, I put some new shoes on,
And suddenly everything is right,
I said, hey, I put some new shoes on and everybody’s smiling,
It’s so inviting,
Oh, short on money,
But long on time,
Slowly strolling in the sweet sunshine,
And I’m running late,
And I dont need an excuse,
‘Cause I’m wearing my brand new shoes.

Take me wondering through these streets.
