| 1. Deus Ex Machina
Deus ex machina...
After ten rainy summers
And nine destructive winters
There was hardly nothing left
But a bare and sore ground
Lite a stripped and dried out soul
Without body and skin
And the cold wind blew the hazel trees
And the cold wind blew the hazel trees

Сольник небезысвестной Лив Кристин, бывшей актрисы Театра Трагедии, ныне переквалифицировавшегося в Театр Комедии. Альбом явственно разбивается на три части. Первая включает в себя короткую интрошку "Реквием" и неплохую, почти десятиминутную заглавную композицию - легкую, медленную, готично-атмосферную, слегка электронную, настраивающую на мистический лад. Ожидая продолжения в том же духе, слушаю дальше, а дальше идет сладенькая, попсовая и простая, как три копейки, впрочем, приятная "In the Heart of Juliet" - ну точно хит для Евровидения. Следующий номер - самая тупая песня на диске, попсово-электронная "3 am", где в роли мужского вокала выступил (наберите в рот воздуха) известный поп-металлист и депешмодист Ник Холмс. Если перетерпеть ее, дальше последует еще 2 поп-песни, а затем начнется третья часть альбома, состоящая из трех композиций и аутро, по стилистике возвращающаяся к первой части и вносящая (видимо, в качестве бонуса) элементы норвежского фолка. В общем - ничего особенного, да и попсово черезчур. |

Вообще, если не смотреть на обложку альбома, то всё будет хорошо. Нет, просто отлично. Почти.
И пусть мне все говорят, что это попса и бред - не соглашусь. Просто типичная музыка для девочек. И только. А я девочка - и я это понимаю. На мужское восприятие такая музыка, увы, не расчитана. И в этом её единственный минуc.
Душевно, интересно, спокойно... Альбом красив и создаёт настроение. Приятное и немного грустное. И даже если это попса, все равно хочется слушать её снова и снова.
Потому что она "цепляет". Потому что она живая. Потому что в ней душа.
Это - творчество. И этим всё сказано. |

Reminding them of how old they are
Suddenly a force from above
Silenced the elegy
It was at the end of the day
It was at the end of the day
Although the beginning of a new and bright tomorrow
Deus ex machina...
After ten rainy summers
And nine destructive winters
There was a last sudden gust of wind
Before the life and freshness again
Touched every heart, mind and soul
And the comfortable summer breeze
Played with the green leaves of the hazel trees
Reminding them of how young
And beautiful they are
Echoing a sorrowless future to come
They thought about their lives
How satisfying they were
And they spoke with happy childlike voices
After ten rainy summers
And nine destructive winters
Deus ex machina...
2. In The Heart Of Juliet
She's the month of June
A summer's tune
The wind that blows
The flower that grows
She'll forever be
So proud and free
A firefly
The sun in the sky
And forever she'll dance
It's the summer
Of her days and forever
Her heart is yours
In the heart of Juliet
One love she won't forget
She longs to give
Forever live
Her soul has such desire
She needs to love, admire
A tide to the shore
Searching for more
No vale of tears
No hauting fears
Another birth
She's joy on earth
Dancing like a child
So pure and wild
A virgin rose
She longs to be close
3. 3 A.M.
I can find no sleep - I never sleep at night
I stop counting sheep - I can see their eyes
And the lights will shine (all night) tonight
And the lights will shine tonight
A fly's been watching me - some (a million) dogs arrive
Some will cover me - some choose to bite
Then I will come to life - I can guarantee that
I will come to life
Won't you come with me - I can ease your mind
Dreams, thoughts, fantasies keep rushing by
I can find no sleep - I never sleep at night
All those pretty sheep sit mesmerized
Then I will come to life - I can guarantee that
I will come to life
4. Waves Of Green
Watching the tidals that wash to the shore - I never forget
Into these silent waves of all times - eternally
How long may this remain
Peace to the land
Nature and sea
Silent emotions are overcome
I wonder how
We can go on
Stormy times will we behold?
Do we still care
What future holds
So many words been said undone
The waves of green
They will flow on
Heal me, free me - dawning is near
Where is the saviour - for us to believe
As I sit here - on Norge's shores
Cries of the unheard - will they be heard
The waves of green - whispering my name
5. Take Good Care
When the sun was down
I opened my eyes
And I looked around
All the stars were bound
To fall from the sky
I would make no sound
Take good care
Take good care
I can hold you
And console you
I can show you another rainbow
Take good care - I can make you one
I can hold you
Like I told you
I can fold you another rainbow
Take good care - I can make you one
Where's that distant light ?
There used to be one
Once we used to lie
Under the sun
All the things that I
Would treasure have gone
Now I'm satisfied
I can hold you
And console you
I can show you another rainbow
Take good care - I can make you one
I can hold you
Like I told you
I can fold you another rainbow
Take good care - I can make you one
6. Portrait: Je Har Ei Tulle Med Oyne Bla
Je har ei tulle med oyne bla
Med silkear og med orer sma
Og midt i fjeset en liten nese
Sa stor som sa
7. Good Vibes, Bad Vibes
Good vibes, bad vibes - dance on the ocean
Man-made insanity's holding me down
Good vibes, bad vibes - a way of locomotion
I can show you, (I can) show you all around
Blue light, red light - drink a magic potion
One-track eternity's making me frown
Blue light, red light - bitter, sweet emotion
Won't you send me way up the underground
Hold tight, uptight waiting for the sunlight
All my enemies are watching me drown
Hold tightm uptight - I'm on the wrong side
I'm on camp site waiting on a silver cloud
Good vibes, bad vibes - dance on the ocean
Man-made insanity's holding me down
Good vibes, bad vibes - a way of locomotion
I can show you, show you all around
