專輯介紹

在一個炎熱的夏天，兩個好朋友Jack White和Brendan Benson在一間閣樓里寫了一首給了他們靈感的歌曲。這首歌就是"Steady, As She Goes"，他們決定組建一個正式的樂隊，於是他們拉來了Jack Lawrence和Patrick Keeler。”

⊙我們來看看他們的關係。Jack White是底特律著名兩人樂隊The White Stripes的主唱；Brendan Benson也是底特律的一個有名歌手，同時還是辛辛那提一個搖滾樂隊The Greenhornes的製作人，而Jack Lawrence和Patrick Keeler又是這個The Greenhornes樂隊的兩名成員。四人同屬於美國的V2 Records公司，這也為他們的合作提供了方便。

⊙2005年，四人組建了這個The Raconteurs，並且在四個人都有空的時候才能聚到一起寫歌排練。在這個新組建的樂隊里，Jack White和Brendan Benson均擔任主唱、吉他和鍵盤，另兩人Jack Lawrence負責貝斯，Patrick Keeler負責敲鼓。樂隊的歌曲沒有The White Stripes的尖銳主題，但The Raconteurs無論在哪裡都穿上花格子的蘇格蘭式上衣，他們演出舞台的布置以及拍攝的MTV，主要的色調都游離在棕色，褐色，卡其色之間。他們的官方網站也很搞笑，模仿了一個80年代的電腦螢幕，有興趣的話不妨去看看

⊙再來說說專輯的情況，Broken Boy Soldiers專輯5月16日通過V2公司在美國發行，通過XL公司在英國發行。專輯封面挺有意思的，四個人打扮成一幅剛剛被扁的樣子來配合專輯的名稱 Broken Boy Soldiers。專輯只有10首歌，長度34分鐘，最長的一首歌Hands也只有4分鐘。所有歌曲都是由Jack White和Brendan Benson創作的，並且由二人共同擔任製作人和主唱。二人的聲音差別比較大，所以我們基本上能夠分清楚誰唱了哪一部分。[本介紹為轉摘，謝謝原作者]

⊙Smothered by the indulgence of his rock star ranking, Jack White steps into the eccentricities of the supergroup, and at first glance, this seems to be a band where White's imposing presence could overshadow the rest. Not the case with these Raconteurs. Teaming with fellow Detroit songwriter Brendan Benson and Jack Lawrence and Patrick Keeler, the rhythm section from Cincinnati band the Greenhornes, White exhales a bit, deferring enough to his mates to make Broken Boy Soldiers play like a team effort. Following the Benson blueprint, "Steady as She Goes," which opens as a slice of 1960's radio pop, the record steers away from pigeonholing the rest of the way. White's in a Middle Eastern mood for the title track as he pulls off a wicked Robert Plant howl, while Lawrence and Keeler excel on the chorus-strong "Intimate Secretary" and the optimistic acoustic rocker "Yellow Sun." Like so many all-star bands before them, The Raconteurs could be one and done. But don't place the blame on this fertile and genuine debut.

Consolers Of The Lonely 03:26

Haven't seen the sun

in weeks,

My skin is getting pale.

Haven't got a mind

left to speak

And I'm skinny as a rail.

Light bulbs are getting dim

My interest is

starting to wain.

I'm told it's everything

a man could want

And I shouldn't complain.

Conversation's getting dull

There's a constant

buzzing in my ear.

Sense of humor's

void and null

And I'm bored to tears.

I'm bored to tears, yeah.

I'm bored to tears, yeah.

If you're looking

for an accomplice

A confederate

Somebody as helpless

You're gonna find,

find yourself alone.

If you're looking

for comfort

Singing a bum note,

Looking for a scapegoat,

You're gonna find,

find yourself alone.

Ahh...

(Looking for sympathy.)

I can get you something,

Something good,

something good to eat.

Haven't had a decent meal

My brain is fried.

Haven't slept

a wink for real,

My tongue is tied.

Light bulbs are getting dim

My interest is

starting to wain.

I'm told it's everything

a man could want

And I shouldn't complain.

Conversation's getting dull

There's a constant

buzzing in my ear.

Sense of humor's

void and null

And I'm bored to tears.

I'm bored to tears, yeah.

I'm bored to tears, yeah.

(Ahh...)

Salute Your Solution 02:59

I seem to think I think

I got a little situation

So listen to me sister

listen maybe you can help

I think I gave a lot of

bobbles my consideration

But not for me they always

seem to be for someone else

Why all the people always

seem to just be on vacation

What do I get from never

touching anything at all

I'm like a trash can holding

all the information

And every single time I'm

in the field to be taught

Salute your solution, now,

salute your solution

I find myself just looking

worthy of my best intentions

Ignoring any kinda pause

I might receive at all

All others seem to find

a road that's tough

to satisfaction

I find a ridicule that

isn't cool for me at all

And if there's one little

answer to this complication

Someone somewhere help me

settle what is on my mind

There's only one I'm only

taking getting and receiving

There's only one I'm taking

And only one I'm taking

And only one I'm taking

And only one I'm taking

And only one I'm taking

And only one

And I got what I got

all despite you

And I get what I get

just to spite you

And I got what I got

all despite you

And I get what I get

just to spite you

And I got what I got

all despite you

And I get what I get

just to spite you

I find myself just looking

worthy of my best intentions

Ignoring any kinda pause

I might receive at all

And all the others seem to

find myself a satisfaction

I find a ridicule that

isn't cool for me at all

But if there's one little

answer to this complication

Someone somewhere some help

There's only one I'm only

taking getting and receiving

There's only one I'm taking

And only one I'm taking

And only one I'm taking

And only one I'm taking

And only one I'm taking

And only one

You Dont Understand Me 04:54

You don't understand me

But if the feeling was right

you might comprehend me.

And why do you feel

the need to tease me?

Why don't you turn it around

It might be easier

to please me.

And there's always

another point of view,

A better way to do

the things we do.

And how can you know me

and I know you

If nothing is true?

What do you think that

you are doing?

Who is the fool, the fool

Or the fool that

you are fooling?

And maybe I just

don't see the reason

But in the core of my heart

Your ignorance is treason.

And there's always

another point of view.

A better way to do

the things we do.

And how can you know me

and I know you

If nothing is true?

You think you know

how I feel.

It's not that big of a deal

There's no such thing,

it's not real.

Oh...

You don't understand me.

But if the feeling was right

you might comprehend me.

And I don't claim to

understand you.

But I've been looking around

And I haven't found

anybody like you.

And there's always

another point of view.

A better way to do

the things we do.

And how can you know me

and I know you

If nothing is true?

Old Enough 03:57

You look pretty

in your fancy dress

But I detect unhappiness.

You never speak

so I have to guess

You're not free.

Yeah, maybe when

you're old enough

You'll realize that

you're not so though.

And some days

the seas get rough,

You'll see.

You're too young

to have it figured out.

You think you know

what you're talkin about.

You think it all

will work itself out,

But we'll see.

When I was young

I thought I knew,

You probably think

you know too.

Do you?

Well, do you?

I was naive just like you,

I thought

I knew exactly

what I wanted to do.

Well, what you gonna do?

What a fool.

And how've you

gotten by so far

Without a head

and no visible scar?

No one knowin

who you really are,

They can't see.

What you gonna do?

What you gonna do now?

What you gonna do now?

The only way you'll

ever learn a thing

Is to admit that you know

absolutely nothing.

Oh, nothing.

Think about this carefully

You might not get another

chance to speak freely.

Oh, freely.

Maybe when you're old enough

Maybe when you're old enough

Maybe when you're old enough

You're not free.

You're not free.

The Switch And The Spur 04:26

In the heat of

the desert sun,

on the blistering trail

An appaloosa and,

a wanted man

sprung from jail

Slow in motion

and shadow-less

The switch and the spurs

Every living thing,

with a fatal sting

Bark and rattle this curse

The rider hallucinates

The snapping hooves

on the sand

Spits a venom dream,

recalls a stranger scream

And a broken hand...

The saddle spotted

with sweat and blood

The poison pumps

through his veins

There's no stopping this,

and now he's powerless

Still holding the reigns

Any pour souls who

trespass against us

Whether it be beast or man

Will suffer the bite or

be stung dead on sight

By those who

inhabit this land

For there's is the power

and this is the kingdom

As sure as the sun does burn

So enter this path,

but heed these four words,

You shall never return...

Any pour souls

It's like a walk in the park

You weren't lying

by anyone else, cause

You can see in the dark

Got a lock,

Got a key

Got some kind of

vice-like grip on me

On a leash, by the reigns

Got a look that

puts me in chains

I tried a subtle suggestion

A more direct approach

A can't make your connection

You're beyond reproach

No need for petty excuses

No need for dumbing around

I don't know what the use is

But what you knowing down

Got a lock,

Got a key

vice-like grip on me

On a leash, by the reigns

Rich Kid Blues 04:34

Been having bad times

And I've been paying dues

Got shoes and money

And good friends too

Always play to win

But always seem to lose

That's why I think I got

A rich kid's blues

That's why I think

I got a rich kid's blues

And I know what is going on

And I know, but

I'll wait til dawn

And I know just exactly

what is on your mind

Jumping back, I know if

I'm still gonna lose you

But I'm wondering why, girl

Did I ask your name?

And all the people

standing by

Oh, they're in my game

Love's just a story

A story without words

Words are almost never seen

And never even heard

I know what is going on

And I know that

I'll wait til dawn

And I know just exactly

what is on your mind

Jumping back,

I know it's all a rut,

you want me to

prove it to you

Though my good times

Are just paying dues

I've got shoes and money

And good friends too

Though I always

play to win

I always seem to lose

These Stones Will Shout 03:54

Well you've impressed

me so completely

I start obsessing

to hear from you

Whatever you do,

you do sweetly

It takes a lot to

not take from you

You're not secure enough

to tell me

Your first impression of

all these clowns

So you'll be tricky

enough to compel me

To take the lead and to

speak out loud, yeah

Speak to me and

don't speak softly

Talk to me and let me know

Grab hold of my shoulder

and tell me

Grab hold and

do not let go

Grab hold and

do not let go

And if you find

yourself repeating

Some of those

incoherent sounds

Just talking to

yourself is cheating

You might as well stick your

head in the ground, yeah

Speak to me and

don't speak softly

Talk to me and let me know

Grab hold of

my shoulder and tell me

Grab hold and do not let go

Grab hold and do not let go

I feel compelled to

just yell out for you

To say the words

that you can't bring out

But I cannot do

everything for you

And if I don't then

these stones will shout

Yeah, if I don't then

these stones will shout

Well, if I don't then

these stones will shout

So if I were to just

lay in silence

And see if you would

take control

The stones below me

would make me combat them

And they would wrestle me

pester me, mess with me,

just trying to

free your soul

Speak to me and

don't speak softly

Talk to me and let me know

Grab hold of

my shoulder and tell me

Grab hold and do not let go

Speak to me and

don't speak softly

Talk to me and let me know

Grab hold of

my shoulder and tell me

Grab hold and do not let go

Grab hold and do not let go

Grab hold and do not let go

Grab hold and do not let go

Carolina Drama 05:55

I'm not sure if there's a

point to this story

but im going to

tell it again

So many other people

trying to tell the tale

but not one of em

knows the end

It was a junk house

in South Carolina

Held a boy the age of ten

Along with his older

brother billy his mother

and her boyfriend

Who was a triple loser

with blue tattoos

That were given to him

when he was young

And a drunk temper that

was easy to lose

Thank god he didn't

own a gun

Billy woke up

in the back of his truck

Took a minute to

open his eyes

He took a peep into

the back of the house

And found himself

a big surprise

He didnt see his brother

but there was his mother

With a red-headed

head in her hands

While the boyfriend had his

gloves wrapped around

an old grease

Trying to choke a man

Billy looked up from

the window to the truck

Threw up and had to

struggle to stand

He saw that redneck

bastard with a hammer

That priest was

a shell of a man

That priest was putting up

the fight of his life

But he was old and

he was bound to lose

The boyfriend hit

as hard as he could

And knocked the priest

right down to his shoes

Well now Billy never

actually met

The preacher lying

there in the room

he heard himself say that

must be my daddy

Then he knew what

he was gonna do

Billy got up e

nough courage to give

and grabbed the first

blunt thing he could find

It was a cold glass

bottle of milk

That was delivered

every morning at nine

Billy broke in and

saw the blood on the floor

and he turned around

and put the lock on the door

He looked straight

into the boyfriend eye

His mother was a ghost

too upset to cry

He took a step to

the man on the ground

But his mom trickled out

an inaudible sound

He heard the boyfriend

shout Get out!

And Billy said not til

I know what

this is all about

Well this preacher here was

attackin your momma

But he just knew that

he was caught in the drama

So billy aim right

at his face

Smashed the bottle of the man

who left his dad in disgrace

The white milk dripped down

with the blood

and the boyfriend fell dead

for good

Right next to the preacher

who was gaspin' for air

Billy shouted why daddy did

you come back here?!

Momma reached behind

the sugar and honey

Pulled out an envelope

filled with money

Your daddy gave us this

she collapsed in tears

He's being paying

the bills for years

Momma lets but this body

under the trees

Putt daddy in the truck and

head for Tennessee

Just then his little

brother came in

with a little milkman's hat

and a bottle of gin

singin lalala lalala yeah

lalala lalala yeah

lalala lalala (3x)

Well now heard another

side of the story

But you wanna know

how it ends

If you must know

the truth of

the tale go and

ask the milkman
