How we met

豆瓣九点上看到一篇文章,推荐了一个很有意思的视频剪辑MV,创意无处不在啊~~

这首歌...旋律很上口的,编曲也很棒的感觉.
尤其是那段rap有和双节棍一拼的实力了.
但是....这个MV明明可以拍的更黑暗更现实更艺术.
Joel 的脸却不停撑满镜头...感觉上像是个人show.
总之感觉MV不是很成功.

Artist: Joel Turner
Song: These Kids
these kids trapped in a struggle
nowhere to head at night
hair full of trouble is all that they're getting
and nobody knows tha suffering they go thru
and u wouldnt believe em if they told you

trapped in a struggle
nowhere to head at night
hair full of trouble is all that they're getting
and nobody knows tha suffering they go thru
and u wouldnt believe em if they told you

verse1:

so many songs, so many times
tha world had to hear so many rhymes
about how life is for strugglers
minority groups, kids with single mothers
young hommy's turn hustlers, stealing for money
it's kinda funny how tha crime rate is so high
in suburbs where family ties are low, n suicides on tha rise
oh why - so many die coz in their eyes
tha mistake they made, can't be erased tha only way out is to take their life
n if they don't do it sudden then they do it slowly
polluting themselves with drugs, because they on this world lonely
so we as a nation just class em as a waste of space
n if they don't help the economy then strip em naked
put em on tha streets n make sure tha police hate em
n feed tha public phony information on tha evening news
"kids may bomb police stations, to get at tha boys in blue"
this song goes out to tha whole justice system
instead of listening to tha kids with tha problems
you just tick them off more
until these kids in prison or dead before they 24

chorus:

these kids trapped in a struggle
nowhere to head at night
hair full of trouble is all that they're getting
and nobody knows tha suffering they go thru
and u wouldnt believe em if they told you

verse 2:

you probably heard tha news about tha 14 year old kid
who went to woodridge to get a stick but got his neck slit
what youll expect in, tha situation that he was facing
with all of these expectations he just wanted to get wasted
but tha mistake he made was fatal.
what about my mate who put a rope around his neck
but he choked to death instead coz tha fall never broke his neck
see both of them, were trapped in a struggle none of us could comprehend
tha younger was in need of weed, tha other had problems with his head
now theyre both dead, and tha same thing happens time n time again
kids dying all tha time n leave us asking "why my friend"
n then there is those who run away from home
live on tha streets n chrome
can't deal with tha pain of tha world so they get stoned
sit in a zone, become known as tha local drones
with low vocal tones, they communicate with hopeless groans
n nobody knows they came from broken homes
plus to us their just emotionless clones
and tha pain plagues their brains they can't maintain healthy lives
change is all but easy, a life of crime is all but nice
plus life isnt worth living unless ya given tha chance to fight
drugs might not be tha answer, but who knows wrong from right
when ya parents drinks 2 whole bottles
of wine, n puts tha hose in tha coke bottle,
a lot of tha time, kids don't know any different
it's like they losing their minds, can't get a hold of their visions
think theyre doing just fine, but they still in the struggle
yeah tha kids of this time, in a whole lotta trouble
if you in trouble, jump over that puddle
some where out there someone really loves you,
loves you like you never been loved, yeah,
loves you like you've never been loved

chorus:

these kids trapped in a struggle
nowhere to head at night
hair full of trouble is all that they're getting
and nobody knows tha suffering they go thru
and u wouldnt believe em if they told you

One eskimO was ‘born’ in 2004 and is the brain child of Kristian Leontiou. Official video for 'Hometime' from One eskimO.Released in the UK 5th November 2007.

One eskimO乐队是2004年Kristian Leontiou组织起来的.这支MV是乐队的官方MV，07年11月5日发行.

下面是从Last.fm上摘下来的乐队简介,英文的,不过其实主要是介绍brain child of Kristian Leontiou:
One eskimO was ‘born’ in 2004 and is the brain child of Kristian Leontiou. At the time Kristian was at the end of promoting his debut album: Some Day Soon (Polydor) which sold over 200,000 copies. His debut single (Story Of My Life) also went Top 10 in the UK singles chart. Kris (as he is known to his friends) grew up in the north-west suburbs of London, his first experiences of music coming from his older sisters, who would regularly shake the Leontiou household whilst practicing with their respective punk bands, in their bedrooms! At only 10 years old Kris was mesmerized when sisters Anna and Alex would sneak him in to watch them perform at venues like The Mean Fiddler. When most kids were getting used to weekend lay-ins, at 14 Kristian had already developed a self survival ‘street’ mentality and had already undertaken work in an array of ‘grown up’ situations that not many so young are exposed to. The resulting attribute is someone very much of his own mind, a humble belief in his own visions creatively. Often he was a child in an adult’s world. It’s no surprise then at only 15, Kristian was introduced to recording studios, adding guest vocals on friend’s garage & dance demos, and using any down time to begin his first explorations musically. His early and lasting influences on these initial compositions were acts like Arrested Development, The Fugees, REM, Groove Armada and Finlay Quay.
