Artist:Neil Halstead
Song:Seasons

Look for comfort now, within these walls

For all these different days yeah, these autumn ways

Will slowly disappear

Will slowly fall apart

Drifting slowly, drifting clear

And all I want is, a little heart

A different point of view yeah, a different start

No time for feeling old

No time for feeling blue

No time for wasting what we know

Look for ocean walls, to gaze upon
These distance stars yeah, these distance suns
Are all the reasons
Are all the reasons
The only season in my life

And all I want is, a little heart
A different point of view yeah, a different start
No time for getting old
No time for feeling blue
No time for wasting what we know

Look for ocean walls, to gaze upon
These distance stars yeah, these distance suns
Are all the reasons
Are all the reasons
The only season in my life

??? Neil Halstead的這張唱片中集結(jié)的都是一些他的個(gè)人創(chuàng)作，大約在Slowdive到Mojave 3過(guò)渡時(shí)期的一些作品。這些歌曲過(guò)于個(gè)人化，沒有別的東西可以附著其上，自然也就無(wú)法貼上樂隊(duì)的標(biāo)簽，索性就順其自然地成了Neil的個(gè)人唱片Sleeping On Roads。唱片的名字蘊(yùn)涵著一種難以名狀的力量。和Rachel Goswell的音樂一樣，讓人向往無(wú)拘無(wú)束的自由感覺。
??? 但是，聆聽Neil Halstead的唱片你要小心，貌似平靜的歌聲，卻有可能在瞬間灼燒你的神經(jīng)。每一段音符，在歡愉的氣氛中漸漸地把你帶入一個(gè)潛表層的夢(mèng)境，斷斷續(xù)續(xù)，不真實(shí)，但確實(shí)存在。每一首歌曲仿佛就是一次青春期的延長(zhǎng)，其實(shí)越是延長(zhǎng)也就越接近終點(diǎn)。
??? Neil Halstead的吟唱是綿軟的，但并非無(wú)力。他不會(huì)輕易將自己的滄桑暴露在光天化日之下，而是先要將各種磨難依次折迭完畢，再裝進(jìn)漂流瓶里，然后選擇在黃昏時(shí)分，將其投遞進(jìn)唱片封套上那個(gè)洶涌的波濤中。近處，我們聽到的是一次青春的挽歌。遠(yuǎn)處，我們看到了第二粒小塵埃在不太大的空間里自由舞蹈。（轉(zhuǎn)載評(píng)論）
