Simple Plan--Untitled

(MV) Inevitably 1 labeled "pop punk," Simple Plan's sophomore 2 album finds the Montreal quintet settling in as a straight-ahead rock band. Yes, lyrically, their concerns remain grounded in the adolescent petulance 3 and alienation 4 of classic punk. They're "the ones you love to hate." "You don't know what it's like to be me," they insist. "We're the kids that you pushed away," they huff. Musically, however, the follow-up to 2002's popular No Pads, No Helmets…Just Balls finds the band moving toward a strain of radio-friendly rock that owes less and less to the punk canon. Opener (and album highlight) "Shut Up!" "Me Against the World," and "Perfect World" boast sweeping 5 choruses and Pierre Bouvier's spit-in-your-eye vocals 6. But strings 7 creep into "Welcome to My Life" and the closer, "Untitled," is a heart-on-his-sleeve piano lament 8 that owes more to Night Ranger 9 than the Ramones. This one will appeal to fans who prefer the "pop" side of the "pop punk" equation.

Lyrics

I open my eyes
I try to see but I'm blinded by the white light
I can't remember how
I can't remember why
I'm lying here tonight
And I can't stand the pain
And I can't make it go away
No I can't stand the pain

Chorus:
How could this happen to me
I've made my mistakes
got nowhere to run
the night goes on
As I'm fading away
I'm sick of this life
I just wanna scream
How could this happen to me

Everybody's screaming
I try to make a sound but no one hears me
I'm slipping off the edge
I'm hanging by a thread
I wanna start this over again

So I try to hold onto a time when nothing mattered
And I can't explain what happened
And I can't erase 10 the things that I've done
No I can't

How could this happen to me
I've made my mistakes
got nowhere to run
the night goes on
As I'm fading away
I'm sick of this life
I just wanna scream
How could this happen to me

I've made my mistakes
got nowhere to run
the night goes on
As I'm fading away
I'm sick of this life
I just wanna scream
How could this happen to me



歌手及专辑介绍

1998
年成军于加拿大蒙特利尔的Simple Plan乐队由五位成员组成,目前已经发表了两张专辑,销量均在百万张以上。 2002年,首张纯流行朋克专辑《No Pad, No Helmets Just Balls》在欧美市场的几百万张的销量证明了他们并非等闲之辈。但Simple Plan没有冲昏头脑。2004年秋,由金牌摇滚制作人Bob Rock(曾经为“金属”乐队等担任制作人)担当监制的专辑《Still Not Getting Any…》(一无所有)的面市充分见证了这五人组合的健康成长。这不再是张专辑纯粹的流行朋克专辑。其第一主打单曲“Welcome to my life”已经成为全球范围内的热门歌曲;“Shut up”则是生猛有力流行朋克,而“Untitled”则是一首动人的情歌。

  Simple Plan的情绪其实更多是来自经典朋克们那些永不磨灭的愤怒与青春冲动,激扬的鼓点、流畅的旋律、时髦的扮相、加上不俗的实力和杰出表现使他们成为一代城市少年主流的音乐消费目标。而从其主唱Pierre Bouvier被美国《明星》(PopStar)杂志评为2005年最性感的14个男人之一也可以看到Simple Plan未来的道路会更为多姿多彩。

SIMPLE PLAN
知道,无论怎样他们是一支“流行朋克”乐队。从专业角度看来,他们的音乐表现出了对过去的很多不满,当然也许他们还想表达得更多,但这并不是因为他们叛逆。现在让我们抛开这种观念:SIMPLE PLAN并不叛逆。叛逆意味着要改变;你曾经是这样,而现在你是那样;大概,其他的事物表面上会更好(MTV,商业电台等等),赚更多的钱,卖更多的专辑,更流行,更多演出,还有让FANS清楚的认识曾经的你。

所以SIMPLE PLAN 曾经是怎样的,又或许他们什么都不是。几年前,鼓手CHUCK COMEAU,主唱PIERRE BOUVIER和贝斯手DAVID DESROSIERS来自蒙特利尔的一支名为RESET的乐队。而在SIMPLE PLAN成立后,也没有怎样改变。或许RESET的歌迷会很不满的告诉你说SIMPLE PLAN的音乐已经大不一样了,但你大可不必在意这些话语。BOUVIER告诉我们,他们的音乐动机是没有任何改变的。

  “其实在RESET的时候,我们就一直在努力让唱片卖的尽量多一些。”主唱说,“歌的旋律无论是以前还是现在都是一样的动听。我们一直加快速度,跨度实际上不是很大;我们一直是流行的先锋。从RESETSIMPLE PLAN有个最主要的改变,那就是我们开始了描述我们生活点滴的创作。”

  给朋克下定义简直就是费力不讨好。这根本没有任何意义甚至令人厌烦。要问朋克是什么东西,这问题估计无论是谁听了一半就会开始大骂。一个人如果正正经经地大谈“朋克论”,那他多半是个白痴。这些人都是自以为是,有令人讨厌,而且相当无知。简单的说,这是美国人的看法,这让SIMPLE PLAN处于很陌生的境地。因为他们是加拿大人。

  如果你用DIY的精神来定义你心中的朋克,那SIMPLE PLAN就是朋克。这里做幕后的人只有乐队成员他们自己。他们的成功在于编曲完全是他们自己来完成的。自从乐队的成立开始,在MGM的领导下,他们的每一步发展都是有计划的。当然,他们的进步和达到了最初的目标,以及出版CD都透露出叛逆和他们直率的谎言。
