Kinda lose your sense of time
'Cause the days don't matter no more
All the feelings that you hide
Gonna tear you up inside
You hope she knows you tried

Follows you around all day
And you wake up soaking wet
'Cause between this world and eternity
There is a face you hope to see

You know where you've sent her
You sure know where you are
You're trying to ease off
But you know you won't get far
And now she's up there
Sings like an angel
But you can't hear those words
And now she's up there
Sings like an angel
Unforgivable Sinner

You've been walking around in tears
No answers are there to get
You won't ever be the same
Someone cries and you're to blame

Struggling with a fight inside
Sorrow you'll defeat
The picture you see it won't disappear
Not unpleasant dreams or her voice you hear

You know where you've sent her
You sure know where you are
You're trying to ease off
But you know you won't get far
And now she's up there
Sings like an angel
But you can't hear those words
And now she's up there
Sings like an angel
Unforgivable Sinner

Maybe one time lost
But now you're found
Stand right up before
You hit the ground
Maybe one time lost
But now you're found
Stand right up before
You hit the ground - hit the ground

You know where you've sent her
You sure know where you are
You're trying to ease off
But you know you won't get far
And now she's up there
Sings like an angel
But you can't hear those words
And now she's up there
Sings like an angel
Unforgivable Sinner

 

 

在位於北極圈以北的北極城市Tromso,一個十八歲的音樂奇才美少女-Lene Marlin,

在去年秋天,以一首甜美的流行歌曲Unforgivable Sinner,大大地搖撼了挪威的排行榜,

成為挪威有史以來銷售量最高、銷售速度最快的單曲!

甚至在99年的MTV歐洲音樂大獎中打敗The Cardigans,拿下「北歐最受歡迎藝人」獎!

宛如天籟的優美音質、專業的演唱技巧、甜美的外表以及詞曲創作的超高水準,

為Lene Marlin贏得了一紙珍貴的唱片合約。

相較於一般流行樂的偶像女歌手,承襲自斯堪地那維亞的流行樂創作力,

以及擁有對美國及歐洲大陸的詞曲創作傳統的高度了解,

Lene表現出一派獨樹一格且與眾不同的特質。

 Unforgivable Sinner 》,嚴格來說,是 Lene Marlin 問世的處女作。

它在她十八歲生日的前兩天以單曲的形式發行----

這也就是為什麼她常常說「上一次出唱片是十七歲」----

並且很快席捲了挪威當地以及幾個海外市場的單曲排行榜。

這首歌在台灣也算老朋友了,電台放到爛,並且成為琳恩瑪蓮的代表曲。

這首歌吉他音用得很重,但是又有技巧在混音上力求乾淨簡潔,

除了製造節奏感的重音,沒有過度使用吉他以外蕪雜的樂器,

使得這首旋律強烈的歌,自始至終都保持「聲主樂從」,沒讓混音淹了她的歌聲,令人印象深刻。

        相較於歌曲旋律的清晰流暢,《 Unforgivable Sinner 》的歌詞卻相當神秘難測,

聽眾只能隱約確定這是一名女子向一名男子的控訴,

但是在控訴什麼事就實在有夠難猜,

甚至這唱歌的第一人稱似乎也不是苦主,而是代人進行道德指責。

它一下子像是某人把女兒賣入火坑,掙扎悔恨卻已無濟於事,

一下子又像擄人勒贖,撕票後良心不安、夜半難眠的恐怖故事;

而 Lene 在這樣的構圖中,忽而像是神遣的天使,吟唱眾神的無聲之怒,

忽而又宛若化身被撕的肉票幽靈,站在遠處無言地指責罪行。

她果然是把故事加密的箇中好手,

這的確是連當事人都猜不到在指涉他的隱晦歌詞。

       第二版MV中 Lene 消瘦少女小臉怪的外型依舊,

不過導演技巧性地利用不少仰攝,相當程度掩飾她過度瘦弱、發育不全的身材。

全身黑裝的她再度展現冷而不豔的奇特性;

許多彈吉他的特寫鏡頭則讓聽眾充分目睹她的吉他功力。

然而這一版的 mv 除了具有極簡主義的質感,以及酷帥得可以的男主角以外,

我認為最珍貴的是它讓聽眾窺見另一種投注於音樂的 Lene Marlin :

第一版的她充滿生命力,第二版的她卻是一派自在,陶醉在自我的彈奏裡,

不需要用力地詮釋、發洩或表達什麼,就只是在那兒彈奏。

這是相當具有代表性的 Lene Marlin 。
