最喜歡的男女合唱Before you cry,在一長串連綿的間奏後,女主唱在空白符號上唱著" i love baby ,oh please don't hate me"真是直叫人心碎的典範.
Camera Obscure打著女聲版的B&S,雖說我覺得這兩者還是不那麼相像,Camera Obscure甜美夢幻,多時候道盡人生戀愛的清澀小傷感,至於最愛的B&S靠北的方式大不同,我迷戀的是主唱Stuart隨性的走音和略帶酸味的歌詞,元老相繼離團的B&S,直到上一張專輯The Life Pursuit第一次聽甚至認不出來這是他們的歌了(要多聽兩三次XD).
Camera Obscure和B&S拿來相提並論,主要他們都出身Glasgow,Camera Obscure也算是Stuart一手催生,並擔任第一張專輯的製作人;女主唱之一的Tracyanne Campell是B&S前大提琴手Isobel Campell的妹妹;Camera Obscure第一代鼓手便是B&S鼓手Richard Colburn(好好打鼓吧!),這種種理由,讓我同樣也愛屋及烏的特別關照Camera Obscure. (姊姊單飛後的個人專輯) 但老實說,太過甜美的團,就像太多顏色的糖果,實在容易吃膩,目前只能拿出專輯偶一為之. 順帶一提,B&S前幾天在官網公佈11月17日即將發行一張名為The BBC Sessions的雙CD,收錄1996-2001RADIO以及LIVE上的表演曲目,這個消息讓等待許久以為他們打算解散的樂迷我為之一振啊!收錄曲目如下(來自官網): The full track listing is as follows:

峯田最新的一篇網誌寫到,最近都在聽THE SMITHS(其實是上篇九月初的內容就有提到說).只是恰恰好最新這篇的標題:いつまでも消えない光がある就是剛看完的TREINSPOTTING(猜火車)中某個章節的標題There is a light that never goes out. ♪take me out tonight
because I want to see people and I want to see lights (峯田的小音符好可愛 借來用)
People won't be people when they hear this sound
That's been glowing in the dark at the edge of town
People won't be people, no
The people won't be people when they hear this sound
Won't you show me what begins at the edge of town
The singer is a crook
The singer is a crook
The singer is a crook
The singer is a crook
The kitchen is the cook
The scissors are the barbers
The singer is a crook
The chorus, full of actors
