Artist:Regina Spektor
Song:The Calculation

You went into the kitchen cupboard

Got yourself another hour

And you gave

Half of it to me

We sat there looking at the faces

Of these strangers in the pages

'Til we knew 'em mathematically

They were in our minds

Until forever
But we didn't mind
We didn't know better

So we made our own computer out of macaroni pieces
And it did our thinking while we lived our lives
It counted up our feelings
And divided them up even
And it called that calculation perfect love

Didn't even know that love was bigger
Didn't even know
That love was so, so
Hey Hey Hey

Hey this fire it's burnin'
Burnin' us up

Hey this fire it's burnin'
Burnin' us..
Up

Ohhhhh
Ohh Ohh Ohh

So we made the hard decision
And we each made an incision
Past our muscles and our bones
Saw our hearts were little stones

Pulled 'em out they weren't beating
And we weren't even bleeding
As we lay 'em on the granite counter top

We beat 'em up
Against each other

We beat 'em up
Against each other

We struck 'em hard
Against each other

We struck 'em so hard
So hard until they sparked

Hey this fire it's burnin'
Burnin' us up

Hey this fire it's burnin'
Burnin' us up

Hey this fire it's burnin'
Burnin' us
Up

Ohhhhh
Ohh Ohh Ohh
Ohhhhhhh Ohhhhhhh
Woooooooooooooooo
Woooooooooooooooo
Woooooooooooooooo
Ohh Ohh Ohhhhhhhh

??? 這位在莫斯科出生，紐約長大的俄裔女孩，從小學(xué)習(xí)鋼琴，受到許多古典作曲家影響。到目前為止已經(jīng)出了三張專輯，以鋼琴為基礎(chǔ)，配上歌聲，以及簡單的編曲，就是Regina Spektor。在學(xué)生時代，受到許多歌手、同儕的影響，成為了anti-folk反民謠的的一員，不用吉他，反而用傳統(tǒng)的鋼琴打造出她的音樂世界。她創(chuàng)作的歌曲里融合了古典樂以及流行樂，全面展露了她特殊的風(fēng)格。

??? 此番是Regina Spektor在2009年發(fā)行的專輯，鋼琴依然是主要器樂，從中可見Regina Spektor深厚的古典功底?？傊?，如果你喜歡流行樂，但同時也對古典樂有些興趣，或者已經(jīng)聽太多吉他民謠，想要換換口味，又或是厭倦了歌壇許多主流歌手，想尋求一些與眾不同的聲音的話，Regina Spektor 是你最好不過的選擇。(轉(zhuǎn)自verycd)
