creep[Radiohead原唱歌曲]

《Creep》是電台司令樂隊演唱的歌曲。單曲於1992年作為樂隊的首支單曲發行,後來收錄于樂隊第一張專輯《Pablo Honey》中。現在已經被翻唱了36個版本。《Creep》對Radiohead歌迷來說是一道神諭,多年來它耀眼的光環從來未曾暗淡。它每一個音符所爆發出的情感與力量早已在我們的靈魂中深深的烙印上一道美麗的傷口。

基本信息

背景

根據樂隊貝斯手Colin Greenwood回憶,主唱Thom Yorke還在埃克塞特大學上學時就寫下了這首歌。吉他手Jonny Greenwood說這首歌的靈感來自一個Thom Yorke喜歡的女孩,她突然出現在樂隊的某次演出中。

解析

這是Radiohead最直白的情歌,在完美天使面前無處藏身的悲哀上升成為對自己的怨恨和對命運的憤怒。一顆脆弱的心終於無法承受感情的重負,隨著Jonny的兩聲吉他轟鳴,我們最後的心理防線也被衝擊得蕩然無存。

緊湊的鼓點和沉重的貝斯貫穿始終;清晰的吉他分解和弦與高亢狂野的失真華彩交相呼應——正是愛與恨的和諧與矛盾。

在這三分鐘五十秒之內,我們沒有思考的時間,沒有喘息的機會。我們漂流在大海上,被思念的浪濤所吞噬;我們迷失在冰冷的太空中,眩目的自卑感令我們窒息....

最後樂段的鋼琴加入是整首歌曲的點睛之筆。

聖潔的音色和著幽怨的餘音,是上帝投下了憐憫的目光,也是修整破碎心靈的堅韌。

“I don't belong here....”

樂音已止,淚水還未來得及落下。

但是這首歌在藝術層面上來說遠不及Radiohead的其他作品,過於簡單的歌曲設計也一度讓Radiohead成員們不願在LIVE現場中表演這首歌。它其實限制了Radiohead在歌迷心中的形象,“他們是Radiohead樂隊,而不是Creep樂隊”。
