Are You A Ghost?
Are You A Ghost?
-- B*Witched [Awake and Breathe]
It's two in the morning
I'll tell you why I'm awake
There it goes, that creepy feeling again
Round in my head
Ooh again here in my head
Here in the darkness
Oh there's so many shades
Shadows burn like faded flames
And die into the night, ooh and fly
Up so high, ooh
Are you a ghost?
Or are you alive?
Would you be here for me (ooh, ooh)
Be here for me now
Imagination
Or are you for real?
Just give me a sign (sign)
And I'll know
Cool wind is blowing
Fingers through hair
Standing in an empty room, alone
It feels like you're there
Ooh alone
I know that you're there
Are you a ghost?
Or are you alive?
Would you be here for me (ooh, ooh)
Be here for me now
Imagination
Or are you for real?
Just give me a sign (sign)
I'll tell you what
I know (I know)
I'll tell you how
I feel (feel)
Are you a ghost?
Or are you alive?
Would you be here for me (ooh, ooh)
Be here for me now
Imagination
Or are you for real?
Just give me a sign (sign)
And I'll know
Are you a ghost?
Or are you alive?
Would you be here for me (ooh, ooh)
Be here for me now
Imagination
Or are you for real?
Just give me a sign
At the first time, I wasn't impressed by this song too much. But later I suddently fell in love with this lyrics and rhythm. To get the MP3 version of this song, I even paid 5 dollors to buy the album of "Awake and Breathe". But I was a little disappointed with other songs. Maybe I should give them the second chance as this one. Anyway, this song is good enough to me to spend money on.
Some information about this album from internet:
98年B*WITCHED发行的首支单曲“C'est La Vie”就如同乐队的名字一般，像被施了魔法一举跃上了英国单曲榜的冠军宝座，并成为英国当年度最热卖的单曲之一；紧接着下一支单曲“Rollercoaster”再获NO.1佳绩，
10月份乐队的首张同名专辑《B*Witched》一经发行，就卖出了3百万张白金销量的好成绩。对于一个刚出道的女子组合来说，这无异是个奇迹，当时就震惊了整个英国乐坛。每个人都羡慕Lynch家一下子出了3个明星，有人甚至劝他们兄弟三个干脆组成一个家庭乐队算了，就像The Corrs一样。只可惜Shane一直只想加入男子组合，他的双胞胎妹妹也只想加入女子组合，更何况Shane加入Boyzone已是五六年前的事，那时两个明星妹妹才12岁呢。面对人们的羡慕、祝贺，魔法精灵们并没有为此骄傲起来，她们认为“比起成为家喻户晓的明星来，我们更愿意带给人们更多的欢笑！”，与乐坛上正走红的所有女子乐团都不同的是，这四个女孩每日只与牛仔服为伴，不卖弄性感也不会穿得花里胡哨，牛仔服让她们觉得很舒服，既随意又符合自己的个性，就像她们的歌声，让人一听就很放松。就像成员Keavy所说，“我们不喜欢任何有局限性的东西，我们只想作出好的音乐，让人们感受到音乐的力量，这就是我们最大的愿望。”
99年告别昔日辉煌的B*Witched10月份发行了名为《Awake And Breathe》的新专辑，听起来要比上一张进步了许多，就连乐队成员自己都说，这是一张“成熟了的唱片”。光从唱片的封面来说，就很有新意，F碧蓝的天空中飘着如蜻蜓翅羽般轻袅的云，下面有绿得滴汁的灌木、婀娜婉啭的大树、盘丝错节细细的滕以及彩色蝴蝶，女孩们犹如丛林中会施魔法的精灵，不食人间烟火地唱着天籁般的歌……率先发行的两首单曲“Jesse Hold On”和“Are You A Ghost & Someday”已成榜上金曲并流传于大街小巷，然后是她们的世界巡演，美国是第一站。面对让人紧张的时间表，B*Witched并不介意，因为见歌迷是她们的一大喜好，像Edele所说的：“不管歌迷是5岁还是50岁，只要能给人们带来快乐，我们就开心。有很多的父母也来看我们的演唱并告诉我们他们的孩子是多么喜欢我们并以我们为榜样，还有比这更令人愉悦的事吗？”
