Lenka：Trouble Is A Friend

最近在聽Lenka的專輯，發現她的聲音蠻特別的，似乎特別適合在夜晚聆聽，有點慵懶又有點俏皮，像是＜Skipalong＞，聽起來的感覺就讓人很放鬆，有別於Norah Jones的感覺；而＜Trouble Is A Friend＞則是讓人感覺有點俏皮的唱法，歌詞也很寫實，蠻愛這首歌的，推薦給大家聽聽看。

　　　　　　

Lyrics：
Trouble he will find you, no matter where you go, oh oh
No matter if you're fast, no matter if you're slow, oh oh
The eye of the storm or the cry in the morn, oh oh
You're fine for a while but you start to lose control...
He's there in the dark
He's there in my heart
He waits in the wings
He's gotta play a part
Trouble is a friend yeah trouble is a friend of mine
Ah ooh...
Trouble is a friend but trouble is a foe, oh oh
And no matter what I feed him he always seems to grow, oh oh
He sees what I see and he knows what I know, oh oh
So don't forget as you ease on down the road...
He's there in the dark
He's there in my heart
He waits in the wings
He's gotta play a part
Trouble is a friend yeah trouble is a friend of mine
oh oh
So don't be alarmed if he takes you by the arm
I won't let him win but I’m a sucker for his charm
Trouble is a friend yeah trouble is a friend of mine
ah ooh
How I hate the way he makes me feel
And how I try to make him leave,
I try, oh oh I try.....

一位古靈精怪的小女孩，腦子充滿天馬行空的七彩畫面轉由音符輸出，可愛有趣之迷人特質讓聽眾很快的喜歡上Lenka，生動活潑的豐富曲風，完全排除千篇一律枯燥乏味的編排模式，加上毫不吹噓的創作功力，Lenka邀你一同進入她多樣的音樂異想世界。

來自澳洲全名Lenka Kripac的Lenka，六歲時伴隨吹奏小號的父親而開口歌唱，慢慢培養出對音樂的高度興趣。移居雪梨之後，Lenka開始學習舞蹈等表演課程，進入藝術學院加強其發聲訓練。2004年加入Electronic-Rock團體Decoder Ring，替短片「猶太男孩/Jewboy」編寫配樂而風靡許多電影節會場，更躍登澳洲大小音樂祭典舞台。Lenka飛到美國洛杉磯尋找更多音樂靈感，同時不斷於工作室裡頭製作自己的歌曲，2007年獲得Epic Records賞識，順利簽入旗下籌備個人專輯。

首張同名大碟《Lenka》，一次動員Stuart Brawley(Celine Dion、Seal、The Rolling Stones)、Pierre Marchand(Sarah McLachlan、Rufus Wainwright、BT)、Mike Elizondo(Maroon 5、Pink、Sheryl Crow)、John Alagia(Dave Matthews Band、John Mayer、Jason Mraz)、Jason Lader(Jay-Z、Gwen Stefani、Coldplay)等五位當紅製作人聯手打造。輕巧舒服的開場曲＜The Show＞，倚著曼妙琴韻隨處飄揚，Lenka的嗓音甜而不膩且像個小淘氣般蹦跳游移其中，絕對討好你挑剔的雙耳；無壓舒緩的引出＜Skipalong＞，輕柔撫慰成人世界的疲憊心靈；飄散如Jem、Feist這類電氣女伶相似迷離音場的＜Don't Let Me Fall＞，加料的有著弦樂適時輔佐，拉開更為美麗的章節片段；小心翼翼的讓Acoustic吉他不越矩的迴盪＜Knock Knock＞裡頭，動聽滿點的讓你不忍隨樂搖擺；＜Dangerous And Sweet＞、＜We Will Not Grow Old＞等曲目都是值得你一再反覆聆聽的推薦佳作。
