樂曲內容

White Shadows
White Shadows
When I was a young boy
I tried to listen
And I wanna feel like that
Little white shadow
Blink and glisten
Part of a system I am
If you ever feel like
something's missing
Things you'll never understand
Little white shadows
Sparkle and glisten
Part of a system plan
All the smiles are waking up
All the space I'm taking up
Oh the sun is breaking up
oooohh....
Maybe you get what you wanted
Maybe you stumbled upon it
Everything you ever wanted
In a permanent state
Maybe you go and you see it
Maybe if you say it, you'll mean it
And when you find that you keep me
In a permanent state ...a permanent state
When I was a young boy
I tried to listen
Don't you wanna feel like that?
You're part of the human race
All of the stars and the outer space
Part of the system plan
All the smiles are waking up
All the space I'm taking up
I cannot hear you breaking up
oooohh....
Maybe you get what you wanted
Maybe you stumbled upon it
Everything you ever wanted
In a permanent state
Maybe you go and you see it
Maybe if you say it, you'll mean it
And when you find that you keep me
In a permanent state ...a permanent state..
I swear I'm only seeing faces
Tired of the human races
Oh, answer now is what I need
See it in a new sun rising
See it break on your horizon
Oh, come on love, stay with me

樂曲賞析

在4座葛萊美獎、4座全英音樂獎加持和兩張專輯累積全球1700萬張銷售之後，這張費時一年半籌劃而成的全新專輯《X&Y》，或許正是擄獲嬌妻-葛妮絲派特洛的秘密武器！

這次Coldplay的新專輯中除了自己獨特地風格外還會融入其他電子音樂等音樂元素。Coldplay為製作這張新專輯可謂煞費苦心，不但選擇在倫敦錄音，而且邀請Danton Supple和KenNelson等著名製作人來製作，相信這次Coldplay一定會給歌迷們一個驚喜。

專輯的封套的設計與1990年的一款電腦遊戲Teris很相像，這背後究竟蘊藏了什麼特殊含義不得而知。不過最重要的是音樂本身，主唱Chris注入了無限傷感情緒，動人的嗓音唱著溫柔的旋律，從而在Coldplay的歌曲中經常能體會出一種憂鬱的感覺。
