Creep

Radiohead的經典成名曲"Creep"不只是The Cure翻唱過,Bob Dylan翻唱過,
Maximilian Hecker翻唱過,Damien Rice、U2、Beck......也都翻唱過,
然而,真正讓這首歌成為台灣樂迷上網搜尋的熱門關鍵字,
則要歸功於林宥嘉在超級星光大道總決賽上唱了這首歌。

這下可好,我一聽才發現我對這首歌完全不熟悉,
趕緊挖出原曲及部分翻唱版本仔細欣賞,Radiohead的版本節奏稍快,
間奏的吉他有著強烈的撕裂感,唱法激昂卻又吐露著絲絲沉穩,
彷彿一個被愛纏身的男人,站在崩潰邊緣對著自己最心愛的她釋放柔情;
德國冰山歌手Maximilian則以鋼琴為基底悠悠地展現他令人結霜的能力,
蜿蜒迷濛的麥式唱腔,使得一股獨特的透明感穿透整曲;
然而我最喜歡的版本,則是由曾在電影偷情中獻聲的Damien Rice所詮釋,
有著使人憂鬱症復發的本事的戴米恩,總是若有似無展現他的脆弱情感,
我自己則時常在他哽咽的歌聲中尋找依靠,兩顆破碎的心因此結合在一起...

最後,因為錯過超級星光大道總決賽的電視播出時間,
所以我只能到Youtube搜尋賽況精華片段,林宥嘉在比賽時的演出,
就伴奏而言,似乎比較接近The Cure的版本,電吉他撥弄出簡單純粹的聲線,
然而唱法卻十分哀傷,與他如流水一般柔軟純真的歌聲,
在我耳裡聽來感覺有些不協調,不過整體聽來還是十分具有爆發力,
尤其副歌那種情緒的糾結拉扯,林宥嘉在此表現不凡,

所以他能得到冠軍,我想也算是實至名歸。

Creep


Artist: Radiohead
Album: Pablo Honey (1993)

When you were here before,
Couldn't look you in the eyes
You're just like an angel,
your skin makes me cry

You float like a feather
In a beautiful world
I wish I was special
You're so fuckin' special

But I'm a creep,
I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doin' here?
I don't belong here

I don't care if it hurts,
I wanna have control
I want a perfect body
I want a perfect soul

I want you to notice
when I'm not around
You're so fuckin'special
I wish I was special

But I'm a creep
I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doin' here?
I don't belong here, ohhhh, ohhhh

She's running out the door ...
She's running out
she's run, run, run, run...
run...

Whatever makes you happy
Whatever you want
You're so fuckin' special
I wish I was special

But I'm a creep,
I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doin' here?
I don't belong here

I don't belong here...
