life in mono
Mono，来自英国伦敦的双人乐队组合，主唱Siobhan De Maré和制作人Martin Virgo组成。Martin Virgo作为制作人，曾经为Massive Attack和Bjork制作过专辑，或许正是因为如此，才给Siobhan De Maré的演唱加上了几分Trip-hop色彩。
这首《life in mono》选自他们1997年9月发行的专辑《Formica Blues》，但其实早在一年前，Martin Virgo刚加入乐队时，已经录制完成，并称为乐队向外界发展的敲门砖。De Maré的演唱颇有Portishead主唱Beth Gibbons之风，相对来讲，比起Beth的气若游丝，De Maré显得更加有“活着”的迹象。她冰冷，金属般的唱法，尤其是后半部份作为背景音的吟唱，就像MV最后的画面表现，一切都在水中成为一片虚幻的倒影，飘来飘去，在闪动的波纹和迷乱的灯影里，凄迷混乱，自有一种凄凉的动人之处。
Mono - Life In Mono歌词
The stranger sang a theme,
From someone else's dream
The leaves began to fall
And no one spoke at all
But I can't seem to recall
When you came along
Ingenue,
Ingenue,
I just don't know what to do
The tree-lined avenue
Begins to fade from view
Drowning past regrets
In tea and cigarettes
But I can't seem to forget
When you came along
Ingenue,
Ingenue,
I just don't know what to do
Ingenue, I just don't know what to do
