Gotye创意动画新单《Smoke and Mirrors》:你能看懂么?



凭借着神曲《Somebody I Used To Know》而拿下三座格莱美奖杯的锅贴哥(Gotye)似乎对于主流路线毫无兴趣,单曲《Smoke and Mirrors》MV首播,依然延续着让人看不懂的创意动画。



歌词:



You're a fraud 1 and you know it

But it's too good to throw it all away

Anyone would do the same

You've got 'em going

And you're careful not to show it

Sometimes you even fool yourself a bit

It's like magic

But it's always been a smoke and mirrors game

Anyone would do the same

So now that you've arrived well you wonder

What is it that you've done to make the grade

And should you do the same?

(Is that too easy?)

Are you only trying to please them

(Will they see then?)

You're desperate to deliver

Anything that could give you

A sense of reassurance 2

When you look in the mirror



Such highs and lows

You put on quite a show



All these highs and lows

And you're never really sure

What you do it for

Well do you even want to know?

You put on quite a show



(Mother)

Are you watching?

Are you watching?

(Mother)

Are you watching?

(Mother)

You're a fraud and you know it

And every night and day you take the stage

And it always entertains

You're giving pleasure

And that's admirable, you tell yourself

And so you'd gladly sell yourself

To others

(Mother)

Are you watching?

(Mother)

Are you watching?

(Mother)

Are you watching?

(Mother)

Are you watching?

Are you watching?



Such highs and lows

You put on quite a show



All these highs and lows

And you're never really sure

What you do it for

Well do you even want to know?

Yeah you put on quite a show
