最近整理硬碟,赫然發現之前小兔傳給我的這首MV。

Jamiroquai,一組很特別的英國樂團,不像一般人對於英國樂團的認知,捨英國主流brit-pop的他們,曲風是走以能跳舞的funk為主。92年成軍,由一間獨立廠牌發行了他們的第一張專輯後,便和sony簽下了八張專輯的合約。

這首單曲"實質的瘋狂"收錄於96年的專輯Traveling without moving,他們不僅靠這張專輯拿到了葛來美最佳流行樂團獎,這支MV也獲得了MTV音樂大獎的九項提名,最後拿下了年度最佳音樂錄影帶這個最大的獎項。在這支music video裡,只見主唱Jay在會移動的地板上不停的跳舞,說穿了,好像並不是很複雜的一件工程。但憑著創新的視覺效果,和主唱Jay過人的舞蹈天份(腳上跳的是house,雙手也同樣忙),呈現出1+1=3的驚人效果,97年的作品到現在看來仍是創意十足,無論是歌本身,還是MV已經算是擁有經典的地位了吧。

BTW,我喜歡的Heidi Klum也參與了他們02年的"Love Foolosophy"這支MV的演出。嗯,年輕時的Heidi既美又瘦,雖然現在也是漂亮的不得了,但多了腰間肉,也多了慈母的味道。(真想當她的小孩than AJ's,不過前提是要長的不像爸爸Seal...)

Oh yeah, what we're living in (let me tell ya)
It's a wonder that man can eat at all
When things are big that should be small
Who can tell what magic spells we'll be doing for us
And I'm giving all my love to this world
Only to be told
I can't see
I can't breathe
No more will we be
And nothing's going to change the way we live
Cos' we can always take but never give
And now that things are changing for the worse
See, Whaaa, it's a crazy world we're living in
And I just can't see that half of us immersed in sin
Is all we have to give these -

[Chorus]
Futures made of virtual insanity
now Always seem to, be
govern'd by this love we have
For useless, twisting, all our new
technology Oh, now there is no
sound - for we all live underground

And I'm thinking what a mess we're in
Hard to know where to begin
If I could slip the sickly ties that earthly man has made
And now every mother, can choose the colour
Of her child
That's not natures way
Well that's what they said yesterday
There's nothing left to do but pray
I think it's time I found a new religion
Waoh - it's so insane
To synthesize another strain
There's something in these
Future's that we have to be told

[Chorus]

Now there is no sound
If we all live underground
And now it's virtual insanity
Forget your virtual reality
Oh, there's nothing so bad,
I know yeah

Instrumental break
(chours)

Of this virtual insanity, we're livin' in,
Has got to change, yeah
Things, will never be the same,
And I can't go on
While we're livin' in oh,
oh virtual insanity
Oh, this world, has got to change
Cos I just, I just can't keep
going on, it was virtual,
Virtual insanity that we're livin' in,
that we're livin' in
That virtual insanity is what it is

[Chorus]

Living - Virtual Insanity
Living - Virtual Insanity
Living - Virtual Insanity
Living - Virtual Insanity

Virtual insanity is what we're living in


以後不定期放一些喜歡的MV上來好了,雖然也只是拾人牙慧罷了。(youtube真是個好玩意)
