An alternative pop/rock trio with a lush, bombastic sound, the Daylights formed in 2004 in Los Angeles, CA. Brothers Ricky (bass/guitar) and Ran Jackson (guitar/keyboard) provided the group's foundation, while Danish drummer Svend Lerche joined the lineup several months later to replace the departing Adam Farley (with whom the band released its first recording, The Shift and Blur EP). With Lerche on board, the Daylights landed a high-profile touring gig with OneRepublic and released another EP, 2008's Sans Radio, while readying the release of the band's debut album。
Fran Healy, lead singer and main songwriter of hugely successful rock band Travis, is excited to announce the release of his debut solo album 'Wreckorder'. The album is the work of a quintessential pop songwriter. Known for songs such as 'All I Wanna Do Is Rock', 'Why Does It Always Rain On Me?', 'Driftwood' and 'Sing' to name but a few, Healy has been recognized by Q Magazine, Rolling Stone and NME amongst others for what Entertainment Weekly calls "A gorgeous mosaic of shimmering guitar pop".
Recorded in Berlin, New York and Vermont, the 10 tracks that make up the record also include a duet with US breakthrough songstress Neko Case on the gloriously laid back 'Sing Me To Sleep', the soaring 'In The Morning' and the teasing 'Moonshine'. Notably the dramatic waltz of 'As It Comes' features Sir Paul McCartney on bass - Healy repaid Macca for his efforts by turning vegetarian.
Francis (Fran) Healy (1973年7月23日出生于英格兰的斯塔福郡) 是一名苏格兰音乐人。目前他是苏格兰乐队Travis的主唱和主要的歌曲创作者。乐队所发行的五张录音室专辑里的几乎所有歌曲都是由他创作的。
他被看作是英国最佳的创作人和作曲家之一,他的歌曲创作曾经得到很多艺人的公开赞扬,这些人包括Paul McCartney, Elton John 和 Noel Gallagher (英国Oasis乐队成员)。2005年,酷玩乐队的主唱Chris Martin称自己为“a poor man’s Fran”。在一些访谈中,Fran谈到过那些影响自己的音乐人,比如Joni Mitchell, Paul McCartney 以及 Graham Nash 。Fran还与McCartney 和 Nash一起同台演出过。虽然比较擅长吉它,但是最近他也开始更多地使用钢琴。
一个很低调的乐队,资料少得可怜,专辑的歌曲也不全,女声清亮,虽然歌词伤感,但却透露着决心,有种迎接崭新未来的开阔感,喜欢那段: Leave, I'm ready to leave, I'm sorry but you see, you're making me bleed, I'm ready to leave. 好像在呐喊,又好像在自言自语,诉说着决定。

歌词: Necessary actions taken only so you'll land on your feet. And consequences with an action, overthrown in this distraction, please.
And even when the stars align there's always something caught in your teeth. This and that it's always something with you, I've run out of steam.
Leave, I'm ready to leave, I'm sorry but you see, you're making me bleed, I'm ready to leave.
Morning bells are ringing, and finally we're singing in key. Harmonizing with a 45 in mind, I think I should leave.
And even though I'm walking away, I wish the best for you dear. Necessary actions taken only so I make myself clear.
You and I, can we make up our minds. Let's say goodbye this time for real, I'm gonna try.
Leave, I'm ready to leave, I'm sorry but you see, you're making me bleed, I'm ready to leave.
We pray for blessings We pray for peace Comfort for family, protection while we sleep We pray for healing, for prosperity We pray for Your mighty hand to ease our suffering All the while, You hear each spoken need Yet love is way too much to give us lesser things
Cause what if your blessings come through raindrops What if Your healing comes through tears What if a thousand sleepless nights are what it takes to know You're near What if trials of this life are Your mercies in disguise
We pray for wisdom Your voice to hear We cry in anger when we cannot feel You near We doubt your goodness, we doubt your love As if every promise from Your Word is not enough All the while, You hear each desperate plea As long as we have faith to believe
When friends betray us When darkness seems to win We know that pain reminds this heart That this is not our home
What if my greatest disappointments Or the aching of this life Is the revealing of a greater thirst this world can't satisfy What if trials of this life The rain, the storms, the hardest nights Are your mercies in disguise

Sounds like … soft acoustic pop resembling the worshipful and inspirational work of Kathryn Scott, Twila Paris, Jamie Jamgochian, Vicky Beeching, and Nichole Nordeman.At a glance … Story is off to a good start with her national debut, though with the exception of "Indescribable" and a few other songs, the album is generally better suited for inspirational pop than congregational worship.

我得说,这首是个人珍藏曲目,第一次听他的歌是那首some years ago,最初是在电台里听到的,当时惊为天人,还记得当主持人说他是个男生时的那股惊讶和难以置信,那会儿是05年,在Linkinpark、Avril Lavigne等一帮主流明星下,乡村和独立乐的动静微乎其微,那会儿根本还没兴起indie这玩意,那会儿还是日韩的天下,那会儿互联网也没这么发达,那会儿我还是个彻头彻尾的哈日族,那会儿我还在为高考不停奋斗,不敢说是因为他让我转投欧美音乐,但不可否认的是,他的确影响了我很多。所以当我知道他自杀的时候,真得震惊了,只是09年那会最轰动的死亡莫过于MJ,大家都去悼念MJ了,而对他,显得不那么关注,他的自杀消息还是在外国网站上看到的,轻描淡写的一小部分,毫不起眼,只是想怀念吧,想不通为什么他选择自杀,天妒英才啊。。。 这首歌出自他第二张专辑,喜欢他那雌雄莫辩的嗓音,背景舒服的弦乐编排,他的假声超给力,听觉的享受。
