Emiliana Torrini－sound of silence

独孤飘零

暗淡的钢琴，吱嘎吱嘎的风摇桅杆，无奈的吉他声主调相似的乐曲，整张专辑下来就像是一首长歌但是不令人生烦，或甜或愁的民谣丝丝入耳沁入内里

    13岁的时候，Emiliana Torrini为她爸爸的生日录制了一卷录音带。她的音乐天赋已经开始得到显现。

    现在的Torrini还很年轻，对于她来说也许人生哲学就是在冒险中平衡自身的矛盾感。正如她在她的歌中，尝试去描述她的所有感觉。就好象她写的歌词往往很简单，通常只是日常生活中的一些小事物。

    Emiliana Torrini加入Virgin后发行了首张专辑这张专辑在欧洲获得了巨大的成功。不少杂志，例如CMJ都对她的音乐津津乐道。对于一个新晋歌手，她的才能已得到大众肯定。

    Emiliana Torrini有着一半冰岛和意大利血统，这也难怪有很多人把Torrini认为是bjork第二。但是不难发觉，Torrini的音乐实在要比bjork多了份乐观，从容，更pop一些。这类更流行些的口味或许会更容易给年轻人接受

hello darkness my old friend
I've come to talk with you again
because a vision softly creeping
left its seeds while I was sleeping
and the vision that was planted
in my brain still remains
within the sound of silence

in restless dreams I walked along
narrow streets of cobble stone
beneath the halo of a street lamp
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
when my eyes were stabbed
by the flash of a neon light
that split the light
and touched the sound of silence

and in the naked light I saw
ten thousand people maybe more
people talking without speaking
people hearing without listening
people writing songs that voices never share
and no one dare
disturb the sound of silence

"fool" said I "you do not know
silence like a cancer grows
hear my words that I might teach you
take my arms that I might reach you"
but my words like silent raindrops fell
and echoed in the walls of silence

and the people bowed and prayed
to the neon god they made
and the sign flashed out its warning
in the words that it was forming
and the signs said "the words of the prophets
are written on the subway walls
and tenement halls"
whispering in the sounds of silence
