在1月3号MAO的「英伦入侵」之前我对GALA一无所知。在现场被迫（喂喂这样说很不厚道吧！）听了他们的歌也还是没有任何感觉，就觉得主唱那个英语发音实在让我不敢相信那是英语。后来禁不住好奇去找了最知名的那首「Young For You」，虽然一开始还是被那口让人忍不住担心是不是咬到舌头的英语囧得浑身不自在，却没有停止一遍又一遍地听下去。

GALA的曲调和唱腔显然是受到Suede的影响，这首「Young For You」甚至连歌名都让我直接想到他们的「So Young」。歌儿真不错，那种简单得有点白痴的欢乐让人听了心情莫名的愉快。专属于年轻的不经思考的冲动和傻气，让旋律中似乎也泛起阳光、沙滩和棕榈树的味道。

不过最后，我还是不得不一咬牙说一句：苏朵你的英语我实在不懂||| 那么就让我们一起来一面享受（音乐本身），一面自虐（主唱发音）吧
　


Young For You

Sunday's coming I wanna drive my car
To your apartment with a present like a star
Forecaster said the weather may be rainy hard
But I know the sun will shine for us

Oh lazy seagull fly me from the dark
I dress my jeans and feed my monkey banana
Then I think my age how old, skyline how far
Or we need each other in california

You show me your body before night comes down
I touch your face and promise to stay ever young
On this ivory beach we kissed so long
It seems that the passion's never gone
You sing me your melody and I feel so please
I want you to want me to keep your dream
Together we'll run wild by a summer symphony
This is what we enjoyed not a fantasy

The tin-man's surfing I wanna try my luck
To the top of tide rip like just have some drugs
I know you have no blame for my proud moonish heart
Welcome to the golden beatnik park

Oh diamond seashore drag me from the yard
Incredible sunward I watch as you're in photograph
For camera your smile's so sweet, palm trees' so lush
Would you believe my honey it's califonia

You show me your body before night comes down
I touch your face and promise to stay ever young
On this ivory beach we kissed so long
It seems that the passion's never gone
You sing me your melody and I feel so please
I want you to want me to keep your dream
Together we'll run wild by a summer symphony
This is what we enjoyed not a fantasy
