Ryan Adams / I See Monsters

Jul 21, 2007, Catalyst, Santa Cruz



July 21, 2007這天，Ryan Adams在2006年底玩滑板弄傷手之後，首次在演唱會裡拿起了他那把名為"Peanut"的Gibson ES-355電吉他。The Cardinals在那晚將近三小時的演出裡，無庸置疑的是世界上最火熱的搖滾樂團。Ryan Adams全身半年多來積存已久的滿溢能量總算找到了一個宣洩的出口。聽聽I See Monsters的現場版本吧！這首歌在Love Is Hell的錄音室版是我在2000年後聽過最美麗的一首drug song；而不可思議的是，Ryan Adams & the Cardinals在現場將這首歌轉化成了凌厲的重搖滾jam，將這首我原本已經認為近乎完美的歌曲又提升到了不同的一個層次！

Baby, I know you cannot hear me now
'Cause you're fast asleep
But I love you now
Colors inside your head go spinning around
Like a ferris wheel
Exploding and falling to the ground

Oh, people are screaming, people are screaming
My baby, she's dreaming
Oh, people are shouting, people are freaking
I'm just staring at the ceiling
Waiting for the feeling

Oh, oh but when she calls,
I know she's the one
Makes me want her harder
Makes me want to be a little stronger
Still I see monsters
Still I see monsters

Baby, I know you cannot hear me now
'Cause you're flying around
At the speed of sound
Colors inside your head go spinning around
Like a ferris wheel
Exploding and falling to the ground

Oh, people are screaming, people are screaming
My babies, she's dreaming
Oh, people are shouting, people are freaking
I'm just staring at the ceiling
Waiting for the feeling

Oh, oh when she calls
I know that she's the one
Makes me want it harder
Makes me want to be a little stronger
Still I see the monsters
Still I see the monsters
