The Swell Season《In These Arms》

歌手：The Swell Season

词曲 : Hansard, Glen James

Use the truth as a weapon

To beat up all your friends

Every chink in the armor

An excuse to cause offense

And the boys from the hallway calling out your name

And true love will find them in the end

You were restless

I was somewhere less secure

So I went running to the road

And so now there's a long list of places I was

I quit my rambling and came home

Cause maybe I was born to hold you in these arms

Maybe I was born to hold you in these arms

Use your saints and your mantra

And you things to keep you calm

If you stay with that asshole

He's gonna do you harm

There's a voice singing loudly on the radio just for you

That good fortune will find him in the end

Maybe I was born to hold you in these arms (X4)

听到这首歌是在为人父母里..


可能大家对The Swell Season会比较陌生

但是《Once》这部电影可能不少人都看过了，片中的两位主演Glen Hansard（男）和 Markéta Irglová（女）的出色的表演和歌声暖了众人的心，令人赞叹。其实现实生活中，这两位出演电影之前就是好朋友，并发行过一张专辑，电影里面的歌曲大部分也出自这张专辑。那么后来，两人合组乐队The Swell Season就显得顺理成章了，而组队不久后二人的“假戏真做”，结为夫妻更是成为佳话。
可惜的是这对来自爱尔兰的夫妻档组合后来宣布结束了感情，但他们的友情在继续，事业在继续。

这首"In These Arms"则体现了两人分手后的"恩爱"如初。

"Maybe I was born to hold you in these arms..."，这种温婉的情调，恬柔的情意，静谧之中充盈着感动，你有没有觉得，其实Once的故事并没有结束，The Swell Season正续写着现实版的情难独奏...
