有位朋友推薦一首蠻動聽的必聽曲  名做 Blower's Daughter

電影 Closer 偷心主題曲

找偏了網上字典  還是對Blower這個名詞一點概念都沒

今天想想 就google了一下歌詞的意思  終於找到....

 

In case anybody wanted to know the actual meaning behind this song, here it is:

Damien explained it at one of his concerts.

The Blower in question wasn't a clarinet teacher, but the cockney rhyming slang for the telephone (Stick with me, I know it sounds ambiguous!). Before he was in Juniper Damien worked at a call centre selling mortgages and loans, and spent all day on the telephone. He grew sick of speaking to people for 8 hours a day without seeing anyone's face, and he began to fantasize about the people behind the many voices he heard. One summer day he phoned a house and a girl with a melodic soft, sweet voice answered the phone. He was calling for her father, but he wasn't in. Protocol said he should have ended the call and phoned back another time, but he was mesmerized and enchanted by her voice and ended up chatting to her for over an hour. Damien began a secret relationship of sorts with the girl, always calling when he knew her father wouldn't be home just so they could talk, despite knowing that it could get him sacked. He dreamed of her at night, daydreamed about her all day long.

如果有人想知道這首歌背後實際的意義，那就是讓我來告訴大家吧：在一場演唱會中達米安做了翻解釋。大家所不解的「Blower」不是指教單簧管的音樂老師，而是英國鄉間同韻俚語中所謂的「電話」（請繼續聽我解釋，我知道這聽起來非常含糊！）。之前，在他還未組Juniper時 達米安在一家房代中心當電話推銷員，整天整天的耗時在電話上。於是他開始憎恨每天8小時跟客戶在電話上對話，看不見任何人的臉，他開始幻想那些聲音後面的每個人是如何過著他們的生活 與他們的長像。夏天裡的某天，他打電話到客戶名單上的一位客戶家中 接起電話的是有著柔和又甜美聲音的女孩。他要求與她的父親說話，但當時父親不在家，公司的規定是他應該結束通話，並致電於另一個時間，但他已陶醉而被女孩的聲音深深迷惑著，最終他們聊了一個多小時。達米安跟女孩開始了一段不為人知的秘密關係，每當他知道她的父親不在家時，他便打電話到她家  只想聽聽她的聲音跟她說說話，儘管這一切可以讓他被解職。晚上他夢著她，白天他也幻想著她。~~~
