Morning Call's 輕晨電 Lyrics: Behind Youth 我們背對著青春 Translations. First lyric video and itunes release for Behind Youth.

All this focusing on 3 dramas at a time has meant that I haven't given much thought to Morning Call 輕晨電, one of my favourite indie bands, but also the band that Jasper is in. I've still been listening to their songs, but I haven't posted much on their activities :s Sorry, Morning Call. I still love you guys a lot.

Last year while I was on a bit of a blog hiatus, Morning Call toured around 5 cities/venues in Taiwan. They then performed at Grasslands Festival, a music festival for university students and they've been hinting about releasing songs. Now they finally have a music video for one of their songs 我們背對著青春! It's more of a lyric video with all the lyrics of the song displayed to a really awesome indie clip that moves across various filtered landscapes (Their original clip had more of a mirroring effect of urban landscapes....But since then, the band has put the clip on private, so I've linked you to their live video performance of it. Jasper was busy so they put his picture out on iphone, so he'd be there in spirit). But the aesthetics are so poetic and I just love the dreaminess of this lyrics video. Do you want a translation of the lyrics? Sure you do....It's right under the music videos and Chinese lyrics.

The other good news is that you can now listen, stream and purchase their song 我們背對著青春 on the following music sites and platforms: itunesINDIEVOXKKBOX, Omusic, myMusic, QQ音樂, 蝦米音樂, 網易雲音樂, AMPedmusicStore, DiGi Music...What are you waiting for? Go buy Morning Call's new single and help support a talented Taiwanese indie band!

我們背對著青春

如果說這世界已沒有悲傷
如果說這世界已不需要逃亡
如果說這世界已莫以名狀
我想我終將無法歌唱

如果你離開只因看不清前方
如果你留下只因理不清立場
如果你拋下那些堆疊的景象
我想我們也因此成長

da~la~la~
人們不厭的沉溺世界的瘋狂
da~la~la~
共同成就著彼此善變的堅強

如果說這世界仍善於遺忘
如果說這世界還拘泥著夢想
如果說這世界仍吹捧著信仰
我想我終將放棄希望

da~la~la~
人們不厭的沉溺世界的瘋狂
da~la~la~
共同成就著彼此善變的堅強
da~la~la~
人們不厭的迷戀膚淺的嚮往
da~la~la~
共同成就著彼此脆弱的猖狂

我們持續聽著
屬於這時代的搖滾樂
直到彼此青春
Ah~

我們持續聽著
屬於這時代的搖滾樂
直到彼此青春
Ah~

我們持續聽著
屬於這時代的搖滾樂
直到彼此青春
Ah~

我們持續聽著

Behind Youth

If this world had no sorrows
If this world had no need for escape
If this world had no words to describe
I think I would eventually be unable to sing

If you depart only because you can't see clearly ahead 
If you leave only because the reason is not clearly positioned
If you throw down those stacked layers of scenes
I think we've also grown up consequently

da~la~la~
People don't mind indulging in the madness of the world
da~la~la~
The common achievements of each other's fickle strength

If this world remains good but becomes forgotten
If this world is still constraining shown dreams
If this world is still excessively admiring known convictions
I think I would give up hope

da~la~la~
People don't mind indulging in the madness of the world
da~la~la~
The common achievements of each other's fickle strength
da~la~la~
People don't mind indulging in the madness of the world
da~la~la~
The common achievements of each other's fickle strength

We continue listening
To the rock n' roll music belonging to this generation 
until each of us is youthful
Ah~

We continue listening
To the rock n' roll music belonging to this generation 
until each of us is youthful
Ah~

We continue listening
To the rock n' roll music belonging to this generation 
until each of us is youthful
Ah~

We continue listening
