White Flag

I know you think that I shouldn´t still love you I´ll tell you that But if I didn´t say it Well, I´d still have felt it Where´s the sense in that? I promise I´m not trying to make your life harder Or return to where we were Well I will go down with this ship And I won´t put my hands up and surrender There will be no white flag above my door I´m in love and always will be I know I left too much mess And destruction to come back again And I caused but nothing but trouble I understand if you can´t talk to me again And if you live by the rules of "It´s over" Then I´m sure that that makes sense Well I will go down with this ship And I won´t put my hands up and surrender There will be no white flag above my door I´m in love and always will be And when we meet As I´m sure we will All that was then Will be there still I´ll let it pass And hold my tongue And you will think That I´ve moved on Well I will go down with this ship And I won´t put my hands up and surrender There will be no white flag above my door I´m in love and always will be Well I will go down with this ship And I won´t put my hands up and surrender There will be no white flag above my door I´m in love and always will be I will go down with this ship And I won´t put my hands up and surrender There will be no white flag above my door I´m in love and always will be

[曲目介绍]

1. White Flag(重点推荐！) 点评：旋律上的清晰流畅，声音上的温柔甜美，这都是Dido的典型特点，并且这首歌的内容也体现了整个专辑主要表现的内容，那就是透露出来的伤感，可以感受到Dido在感情上受到的挫折是她事业上的巨大成功所不能弥补，也难以令她忘却的。 2. Stoned 3. Life for Rent 4. Mary's in India 5. See You When You're 40 6. Don't Leave Home 7. Who Makes You Feel 8. Sand in My Shoes 9. Do You Have a Little Time 10.This Land Is Mine 11.See the Sun

[唱片点评]

　　经过了四年的漫长等待之后，电子流行乐歌星Dido终于推出了第二张个人专辑，自从受到Eminem的单曲《Stan》的推动作用以后，Dido专辑的销量飞速增长，人气也呈几何倍数的提升，这张倍受期待的专辑推出以后，已经在英国专辑榜上轻松的成为了冠军，随后又以接近19万2千张的单周销量在美国Billboard排行榜上位居第四名，这也追平了她第一张专辑《No Angel》的记录。

　　在这张专辑中，Dido主要表现了她的音乐工作的艰辛，以及感情上的挫折等许多令她伤心的记忆，特别是在最近和多年的男友分手的情形，颇有些“功名利禄虽苦取，红颜知己更难求”的感觉。在上一张大获成功的专辑《No Angel》之后，Dido长时间的投入到制作这张新专辑的工作中，为了保证专辑在音乐和商业上不会出现大滑坡，Dido也采用了通常的做法，那就是尽量保持上张专辑的原班人马操刀，所以这张专辑还是主要由她的哥哥Rollo担任制作人，但是这也在一定程度上影响了音乐在创新方面的工作。事实上也是如此，在音乐风格上基本和上一张没有太多的区别，不过一些旋律的处理上比前一张专辑显得更为自然了。此外专辑里也有一些令人回味的单曲，诸如《White Flag》《Stoned》《See You When You're 40》《Do You Have a Little Time》以及同名主打《Life for Rent》等。

　　对于整张专辑中比较多的伤感成分来说，专辑的电子融合流行民谣式的音乐风格表现起来也还是比较自然，透彻的，旋律加上歌词，这份伤感对于那些过了而立之年又不幸遭遇感情挫折的人们来说可能会引起共鸣。对于喜欢Dido的歌迷来说，这是一张仍然具有Dido特点的专辑，因为音乐风格上没有大的变化，所以还可以听到和以往同样的Dido，可以说这就是《No Angel》的音乐在新世纪的延续。
