Maximilian-The Whereabouts of Love:忧郁小王子新专

麦斯米兰·海克(Maximilian Hecker)，1977年7月26日出生，德国流行音乐家，以表演轻而空风格的音乐而著名。麦斯米兰总喜欢以“忧郁的流行赞美诗” 来形容自己的音乐，古典钢琴与假声的运用是麦斯米兰最大的特色。

他的音乐跟他的面孔一样纯净无暇，用最柔弱的嗓音表达着他感伤唯美的体验。古典韵味的钢琴、通透的假声、弥漫的稀薄情感、独特的曲式行进、偶尔肆虐的吉他失真和神经质的男声，让人深陷其中难以自拔。这首《The Whereabouts of Love》来自忧郁小王子7月份刚刚发行的新专《Mirage of Bliss》，沿袭了其一贯的忧郁气质，一起先听为快！

歌词：

I spend my hours waiting
Waiting for the nightfall
And I wonder if my life
Is blissful or appalling¹
If silence is my laughter

I hone my heart down to the bare bones
Down to the pieces that are needed to survive
And spend my life cruising on my own
As I don’t care about the whereabouts of love
The whereabouts of love

Is reclusiveness a curse
Or could it be a blessing²?
A wall against disorder³?
While it shields me from the rain
It causes me to dry out
And counteracts my blooming

I hone my heart
Someday I’ll
I hone my heart
Someday I’ll
I hone my heart down to the bare bones
I need to survive
And spend my life cruising on my own
Cruising on my own
