Last.fm把Kashmir列為Mew的similar artist，我只聽過這首歌"Surfing the Warm Industry"，歌詞寫得真好，完全道出了我想表達的感受。仔細聽，它非常像Radiohead的"Jigsaw Falling into Place"。
I wanna run from the apathy From the questioning tounges And eyes that just won't come off And get a job in a industry Where a smile's not required And complaints are always the same
Cause baby you must be so fed up With a boy that keeps telling you How much good he's gonna do When all that is happening 'round here Is happening in here And nothing gets out there Except for the truth
It's up to you Cause I'm absolutely numb It's up to you Cause I'm absolutely numb
I've been adrift on the silver surf And I've paddled ahead of the fear That I'd fall behind I took drinks from the glitter smurfs And their company dads who never Stood by in the crying
Cause no one does and nobody ever will There is only space for one And surely he gets killed When the engine seizes up You might call it existential crisis I simply call it the bravery Of emptiness
It's up to you Cause I'm absolutely numb It's up to you Cause I'm absolutely numb
She came from Greece she had a thirst for knowledge, she studied sculpture at Saint Martins College, that's where I caught her eye.
我在聖馬丁學院遇見一個學雕塑且渴求知識的希臘女孩， 就在那，我們相遇了。
She told me that her dad was loaded, I said "In that case I'll have a rum and coca-cola, she said "Fine" and in 30 seconds time she said "I want to live like common people, I want to do whatever common people do, I want to sleep with common people, I want to sleep with common people like you". Well what else could I do, I said "I'll see what I can do."
I took her to a supermarket, I don't know why but I had to start it somewhere, so it started there. I said 'Pretend you've got no money', but she just laughed and said "Oh you're so funny", I said "Yeah. Well I can't see anyone else smiling in here. Are you sure you want to live like common people, you want to see whatever common people see, you want to sleep with common people, you want to sleep with common people like me." But she didn't understand, she just smiled and held my hand.
Rent a flat above a shop, cut your hair and get a job. Smoke some fags and play some pool, pretend you never went to school. But still you'll never get it right 'cos when you're laid in bed at night watching roaches climb the wall, if you called your dad he could stop it all.
妳可以租間小公寓， 剪去長髮，找份工作 閒來無事叼根菸，打場撞球
假裝自己不再上學去 但永遠不會抓到要領的
因為當妳半夜躺在床上 望著牆上爬來爬去的蟑螂
如果打通電話給妳的爸爸 妳就能逃離這一切啊
You'll never live like common people, you'll never do whatever common people do, you'll never fail like common people, you'll never watch your life slide out of view, and dance and drink and screw, because there's nothing else to do.
Sing along with the common people, sing along and it might just get you through. Laugh along with the common people, laugh along even though they're laughing at you and the stupid things that you do, because you think that poor is cool.
Danilov: I've been such a fool, Vassili. Man will always be a man. There is no new man. We tried so hard to create a society that was equal, where there'd be nothing to envy your neighbour. But there's always something to envy. A smile, a friendship, something you don't have and want to appropriate. In this world, even a Soviet one, there will always be rich and poor. Rich in gifts, poor in gifts. Rich in love, poor in love.
"Enemy at the Gates"這部好萊塢戰爭電影，有一段對白讓我印象深刻。
