Artist:The Rentals
Song:Song of Remembering

I have written enough as enough to sing for a song of remembering

Everything moves everyone’s laughing, moving through the city of passing

I’ve written enough, enough for a while, I have written enough, enough for a while

And everything moves, we are the past, everything moves, but outside these photographs,

everything dies, the cycles of time,

everyone is passing, passing, passing, passing through

Oo oo oo oo

I remember the streets, I remember these faces, going through the ever ages

In these ever machines, crowdin’ the streets, there must be some kind of factory where the angels are made, to just be replaced, I have written enough, enough for today

And everything moves, we are the past, everything moves, but outside these photographs, everything dies, the cycles of time, everyone is passing, passing, passing, passing through

(Guitar Solo)

Passing, passing through

And everything moves, we are the past, everything moves, but outside these photographs, everything dies, the cycles of time, everyone is passing, passing, passing, passing, passing, passing, passing, passing, passing through

Oo oo,

Passing, passing through

Oo, oo

Passing, passing through

Oo, oo

Through a song of remembering

Oo, oo

A song of remembering

Oo, oo

Oo, oo

??? 說起RENTALS的主腦MATT,他曾是WEEZER樂隊(duì)的BASS手。1994年，WEEZER剛剛成功發(fā)表處男大碟，MATT卻利用樂隊(duì)巡演中的間隙，與鼓手PAT一同組建了RENTALS樂隊(duì)，不但親自出馬主唱兼貝司，他還邀來了一位女歌手以及其他樂手共同錄制專輯。1995年年底R(shí)ENTALS在主流大廠REPRISE旗下發(fā)表了首張專輯Return Of The Rentals，整張唱片帶著濃重的新浪潮氣息，而動(dòng)聽的旋律又充分顯示了Matt Sharp不凡的才氣，當(dāng)時(shí)許多評(píng)論都對(duì)這張唱片大加贊賞。到了1998年，MATT因?yàn)檠垡奟ENTALS有更好的發(fā)展而退出了WEEZER。樂隊(duì)的第二張專輯Severn More Minutes因?yàn)橛蠦lur的Damon Albarn、Ash的Tim Wheeler、Elastica的Donna Matthaws、Lush的Miki Berneyi等英倫巨星參與，而成為一時(shí)佳話。但這張專輯卻叫好不叫座，商業(yè)成績并不是太好。近幾年Matt Sharp開始單飛發(fā)展，發(fā)表了兩張頗有獨(dú)立民謠色彩個(gè)人專輯，反響還不錯(cuò)。

??? The Rentals的這次回歸給人感覺相當(dāng)驚喜，因?yàn)樗麄儙硪粡埛欠驳膭?chuàng)意混合作品“Songs About Time”，包括歌曲，攝影作品以及設(shè)計(jì)圖稿，而這張EP《Story of a Thousand Seasons Past》便是這張作品的第一部分，感覺相當(dāng)不錯(cuò)。(文字來源網(wǎng)絡(luò))
