法国女歌手Emilie Simon 为05年上映的法国纪录片《La Marche De L’empereur》(帝王的旅程)所录制的电影原声专辑。
白雪皑皑,冰封大地,帝王企鹅(生活在南极洲的体型最大的企鹅种类)步履蹒跚的却是执著的前行着,舍弃了游刃有余的大海,孤独的背负着命运的旨意:种族的延续!
Emilie所作的此张电影原声可谓是精彩无比,电子加弦乐的有机结合将南极大地的冰冷入骨和帝王企鹅的使命归宿如电影场景一样的传输到聆听者的耳朵,然后只需稍稍用想象解码即可复原欣赏。
如果你在聆听时不经意想起MuM,Portishead,Kate Bush,那么尽量不要去想他们,专注的跟随Emilie Simon前行,穿过大雪和风暴,为帝王企鹅祈祷,为生命的奇迹歌唱。
“难道你不曾想过为我,打开去向你冰封世界的大门。”
Emilie Simon在作品《The Frozen World》中唱到,不仅仅是唱到,而且从器乐的表现上也栩栩如生,开始诡异而令人不安的钟琴乐器的细碎弹奏,木琴而随后相和,当Emilie Simon声线于冰冷氛围之中颤然缥缈而出之时,伴随着的是有如玻璃碎片相互撞击而成的细碎电子节拍,引领我们进入冰封世界。
The Frozen World
Emilie Simon
Won't you open for me
The door to your ice world
To your white desert
I just want to stare
Out over these snowfields
Until we are one again
We belong to the frozen world
When the ice begins to thaw
Becomes the sea
Oh, you will see
How beautiful we can be
Everything is calm
At the end of the planet
In our white desert
The sun kissed the ice
It glistens for me
And we are one again
We belong to the frozen world
When the ice begins to thaw
Becomes the sea
Oh, you will see
How beautiful we can be
