英语摇滚歌曲:Amorphis - Highest Star

金属:Amorphis - Highest Star


相关介绍 ：来自芬兰的 Amorphis 於 1990 年成立，乐队早期所玩的乐风是 Doom¹ 味极重的 Death Metal，带有 Old School Death Metal 及民谣旋律的成份，他们的 Tales From The Thousand Lakes 被推举为一张极成功的 Melodic² Doom/Death 大碟。乐队由 Elegy³ 开始，成员有变动，乐风亦有所改变，续渐地弃用了死腔，风格走向 Gothic Metal 路线， 不过，Amorphis 的音乐质素没有变坏，只与他们的乐队名 Amorphis (Amorphous) 一样，不断的改变，乐队的歌曲亦反映了他们深受六七十年代的乐队映响，歌曲旋律除具民谣感外，亦带有迷幻或 Progressive 的成份，仍然保留了一流的编曲及歌词.

歌词 ：

Song ：Highest Star
Artist ：Amorphis

Under the vault of heavens
I stood alone, waiting
The blaze of silver shining in my eyes
My hands of gleaming gold
The red of iron in my veins
The blue of steel in my bones
The sparkle of blackness of coal in my hair
My chest golden with waved
It is my heaven
It has my eyes
It is my space
It has my shape

I knew it was my masterwork
I felt the strength of gods
Revised the soaring heights
Let the heavens be aligned

Let the heavens be aligned


I listened with care the place for the moon
Made sure of the tones
Painted through void the route for the sun
Made out the locus of stars
I pierced the distant dome
For the lights to seep through
I checked the curves of borders of all
And placed the highest star
It is my heaven
It has my eyes
It is my space
It has my shape

It worked and sun and danced
It shone and gloved and gleaned
It circled, curved and blazed
It pulsed, burned and waned

Burned and waned


It flowed from my bones
And bolted from my fingers
And settled on and over me
And made me face my longing
