【勇氣】Sahra da Silva & the Jagged Soul



Sahra da Silva1984出生Copenhagen南方小鎮Birkerød,父親是葡萄牙裔(從她的姓氏可知)。父母離異後,她發現美國六零年代的音樂很有意思,加上自己愛唱歌且確實有這天分,後來和一班好友組成了Sahra da Silva & the Jagged Soul,2012年以同名專輯立下小小里程碑。

我們可以從Sahra da Silva的音樂中,隱約感受Janis Joplin的影子在裡面。這種白人靈魂樂總是夾帶「黑人草根」,但Sahra da Silva不若Janis Joplin搖滾放肆,她喜以緩慢方式娓娓道出每一首歌曲的個性。這就是黑人音樂內斂自省的一面,與白人搖滾的直截了當自然有所不同。


請參考1971年Janis Joplin的專輯Pearl

【MV】Solburst - Natural High





I've got this high, it's late July
And I'm walking through the city
i've got my groove
nothing to prove
no destination, just temptation

CHORUS
when he gives it to me, he gives it to me good
"X's" on the "could's" and the "would's" and the "should's"
Yeah he makes me feel so fly...I
No, I can't get enough of this natural High

Here i here i here i here i go again
always looking for the sporadical zen
let's only do this til the spark fizzles down
not a complication that might turn this shit around
it's cause it feel too fresh
feel'n on our naked bodies, flesh to flesh uuu
he makes me feel so fly
can't get enough of this natural high

I could walk for miles and miles
turn all frowns right into smiles
with the way he's got me float'n jive
spokeswoman ale for that sexual drive
supply, defy, feel'n on my thigh
try'n not to lose my existence in his eye
he makes me feel so fly
can't get enough of this natural high

CHORUS

so turn down the lights
take me down from heaven i'm afraid of these heights
he's so natural, natural
spiritual and actual
perpetual, when sexual
yeah he is so...natural!

CHORUS

let's not confuse infatuation with duration
one day at a time, baby
what we doin ain't a crime
he's like finding four leaf clovers in the grass
but when the high is over with me
it's over me at last
