大衛說這首歌就像他的作曲啓蒙老師一樣,我們豈可不聽?
Natasha是個以才華著名的英國女歌手兼作曲家,第一張專輯“Unwritten"2004年在英國發行之後就大紅起來(全球賣了兩百五十萬張),2007年還曾經得到葛萊美獎最佳流行女歌手提名,她的哥哥Daniel和她是兄妹檔作曲家,Daniel和大衛合寫了那首有自傳意味的Works For Me,是我覺得在大衛專輯中最能代表大衛的歌曲之一。中間那個就是Daniel,右邊那位是Toby Lightman,也參與這首歌的創作。
These Words是Unwritten中在北美的第一支單曲,描述Natasha寫歌時沒有靈感的痛苦,難怪對大衛那麼有啓發性。她最近的另一首”Pocketful of Sunshine"也非常好聽,值得大家進一步認識認識。
貼不上來,大家去這裡聽吧!:thesewords

These Words
These words are my own
Threw some chords together
The combination D-E-F
Is who I am, is what I do
And I was gonna lay it down for you
Try to focus my attention
But I feel so A-D-D
I need some help, some inspiration
(But it's not coming easily)
Whoah oh...
Trying to find the magic
Trying to write a classic
Don't you know, don't you know, don't you know?
Waste-bin full of paper
Clever rhymes, see you later
These words are my own
From my heart flow
I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you
There's no other way
To better say
I love you, I love you...
Read some Byron, Shelly and Keats
Recited it over a Hip-Hop beat
I'm having trouble saying what I mean
With dead poets and drum machines
I know I had some studio time booked
But I couldn't find a killer hook
Now you've gone & raised the bar right up
Nothing I write is ever good enough
These words are my own
From my heart flow
I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you
There's no other way
To better say
I love you, I love you...
I'm getting off my stage
The curtains pull away
No hyperbole to hide behind
My naked soul exposes
Whoah.. oh.. oh.. oh.. Whoah.. oh..
Trying to find the magic
Trying to write a classic
Waste-bin full of paper
Clever rhymes, see you later
These words are my own
From my heart flow
I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you
That's all I got to say,
Can't think of a better way,
And that's all I've got to say,
I love you, is that okay?
