Delilah - Florence and the Machine

机器姐的新作,跟上个月新推的Ship to Wreck一样狂放不羁。

 

圣经旧约里,Delilah趁Judge Samson熟睡时削去他的头发,夺取了他的神力,因此一直被贴上妖妇的标签:

 
 

  

Delilah was approached by the lords of the Philistines, to disco-ver the secret of Samson's strength, "and we will give thee, eve-ry one of us, eleven hundred pieces of silver." Three times she asked Samson for the secret of his strength, and all three times he gave her a false answer. The first time, he told her, "If they bind me with seven green withes that were never dried, then shall I be weak, and be as another man." Then he told her, "If  they bind me fast with new ropes that never were occupied, then shall I be weak, and be as another man." The third time, he   told her, "If thou weavest the seven locks of my head with the web...." On the fourth occasion, he gave her the true reason:  that he did not cut his hair in fulfillment of a vow to God; and  Delilah, when Samson was asleep on her knees, called up her man to shave off the seven locks from his head, then betray-ed him to his enemies: "The Philistines took him, and put out    his eyes, and brought him down to Gaza, and bound him with fetters of brass; and he did grind in the prison house."

  
 

 

机器姐的这首歌很有意思地重新阐述了这个人物,虽然她一直重复唱着那句“holding on for your call”,但每一句的情感都不相同。从最初的少女对恋人的苦求和依恋,到几个重重的和弦之后,变成了一只性感地想要报复负心汉的小恶魔。

 

Never knew I was a dancer, till Delilah show me how.

 

蠢男人们,要是你辜负了好女孩,你们绝壁是死定了【微笑】
