Of Monsters and Men
是6位團員組成男女雙主唱的冰島獨立民謠新樂團
樂團的組成起源於女主唱Nanna Bryndís Hilmarsdóttir在2009年開始的叫做Songbird的solo project,
之後在2010年冰島音樂競賽「Músíktilraunir」得到冠軍
隔年9月即在冰島發行首張專輯《My Head Is an Animal》大獲好評
專輯和主打歌"Little Talks"馬上佔據排行榜第一名位置
之後在美國也受到廣大歡迎
今年3月開始展開北美巡迴演唱
所以他們其實不是我在冰島的時候所認識的團
卻是把我再度帶回冰島音樂
開始寫冰島音樂分享的重要媒介呢
我非常喜歡他們的主打歌"Little Talks"
完全不是曲名的悄悄話的感覺
男女主唱的甜蜜對話和整個團的呼喊
反而是充滿明快又復古的旋律和節奏
讓人不自覺的跟著搖擺
甚至轉圈跳起舞
而且有不自覺repeat的魔力
充滿魔幻老電影的MV也十分吸引人！
"Iceland-inspired fantastical world"！
Lyrics to Little Talks :
Hey! Hey! Hey!
I don't like walking around this old and empty house.
So hold my hand, I'll walk with you my dear
The stairs creak as I sleep,
it's keeping me awake
It's the house telling you to close your eyes
Some days I can't even dress myself.
It's killing me to see you this way.
'Cause though the truth may vary
this ship will carry our bodies safe to shore.
Hey! Hey! Hey!
There's an old voice in my head
that's holding me back
Well tell her that I miss our little talks.
Soon it will all be over, buried with our past
We used to play outside when we were young
and full of life and full of love.
Some days I feel like I'm wrong when I am right.
Your mind is playing tricks on you my dear.
'Cause though the truth may vary
This ship will carry our bodies safe to shore
Hey!
Don't listen to a word I say
Hey!
The screams all sound the same.
Hey!
Though the truth may vary
this ship will carry our bodies safe to shore
You're gone, gone, gone away,
I watched you disappear.
All that's left is a ghost of you.
Now we're torn, torn, torn apart,
there's nothing we can do,
Just let me go, we'll meet again soon.
Now wait, wait, wait for me, please hang around
I'll see you when I fall asleep.
Hey!
Don't listen to a word I say
Hey!
The screams all sound the same.
Hey!
Though the truth may vary
this ship will carry our bodies safe to shore
Hey!
Don't listen to a word I say
Hey!
The screams all sound the same.
Hey!
Though the truth may vary
this ship will carry our bodies safe to shore (x3)
I don't like walking around this old and empty house.
So hold my hand, I'll walk with you my dear
The stairs creak as I sleep,
it's keeping me awake
It's the house telling you to close your eyes
Some days I can't even dress myself.
It's killing me to see you this way.
'Cause though the truth may vary
this ship will carry our bodies safe to shore.
Hey! Hey! Hey!
There's an old voice in my head
that's holding me back
Well tell her that I miss our little talks.
Soon it will all be over, buried with our past
We used to play outside when we were young
and full of life and full of love.
Some days I feel like I'm wrong when I am right.
Your mind is playing tricks on you my dear.
'Cause though the truth may vary
This ship will carry our bodies safe to shore
Hey!
Don't listen to a word I say
Hey!
The screams all sound the same.
Hey!
Though the truth may vary

You're gone, gone, gone away,
I watched you disappear.
All that's left is a ghost of you.
Now we're torn, torn, torn apart,
there's nothing we can do,
Just let me go, we'll meet again soon.
Now wait, wait, wait for me, please hang around
I'll see you when I fall asleep.
Hey!

Hey!

this ship will carry our bodies safe to shore (x3)
