Ear candy而已，个人情结很多。
Just some ear candy playing all around these days in my handy player.
I am a Pop kid of an uncle age.
pt. 1 :: Toffee
Waterlillies | Sunshine Like You
("Envoluptuousity", 1991, Sire)
女神Sandra Jill Alikas近20年来到哪儿去了？如果英国雪鸽Kirsty Hawkshaw让你觉得足够香，那么Sandra是她的20倍浓烈。——当然，要听她的声线，这首不是代表，三年前就推过这个被时光湮没的优团的粉红名作。
Where has underrated pop diva Sandra Jill Alikas gone in the past 20 years? Her voice is 20 times more fragrant than UK snow dove Kirsty Hawkshaw. -- Yet, this song is not really a representative one.

Texas | Postcard
("White On Blonde", 1997, Mercury)
因为这封面太常见，就觉得一定全是糊弄世人的花哨泡沫？
Don't tell that this record cover was too frequently seen to own gorgeous tracks. This one is dazzling enough.

Leigh Nash | Never Finish
("Blue On Blue", 2006, One Son/Nettwerk)
……之后我变成了你膝前的少女。:)
After this I became a maiden down on your knees. :)
|
Annie | Marie Cherie
("Don't Stop", 2009, Island)
早泄的专辑，泄得真早啊。
Welcome back Electro but melancholy Annie!

pt. 2 :: Liquorice
Starflyer 59 | Mr. Martin
("Dial M", 2008, Burnt Toast)
不知道为什么，我对他们听得不多但又很多感情。比方成一个人的话，就像多年前没恋成后来消失人海里，如今又在别个城市重新碰上。此歌有关主脑Jason Martin的父亲之去世。
Got no reason to be familiar but felt intimate, like an acquaintance that used to be an unrequited lover, however, who comes back now and stands in front of you both in a new city. This song is about the death of of the leader Jason Martin's father.

Shelleyan Orphan | Judas
("We Have Everything We Need", 2008, One Little Indian)
这个团简直是知者知也——就是某一类爱好者会心的秘藏爱好。时隔十几年又突然出现，少了许多巴洛克味，细腻依旧。女主唱Caroline Crawley在This Mortal Coil里的嗓音还是那么无人替代，时间越久越得证啊。
Shelleyan Orphan is absolutely 4AD orphan -- being a unsettled ghost haunting fans of This Mortal Coil with Baroque wings of Caroline Crowley. Even so many years passed, this sudden return will still soothe our eyes.
|
Esthero | My Torture
("Wikked Lil' Grrrls", 2005, Reprise)
隠れた名曲！：D Esthero是我的另一Diva。这首歌是这专辑里的意外，也是当Esthero指一个二人团时代的意外。
I don't have to name Esthero as a diva of mine to prove how much of a lost Pop gem this song can be.

His Name Is Alive | Teardrops
("Last Night", 2002, 4AD)
知道为什么His Name Is Alive这么多年没有大红吗？因为他们最好的歌，都是闷骚中的闷骚、不经意后的不经意。或者说人一太聪明，性魅力都变得艰深，难为普通人所领会。OK这首据说是翻唱，但我查不到原曲，你能吗？
The reason why His Name Is Alive has never been a chart-hitter can be... Warn Defever is too sexy to be that kinda sexy. "Teardrops" is said to be a cover of Ida, but who the hell is the author Eddy Grant?
