The Smile When You Tore Me Apart

有的歌，第一次听觉得惊艳，5遍之后就会烦腻，永远不会再拾起。

有的歌，第一次听没有感觉，在耳边流过几遍之后会觉得原来这么好听，然后记住它，然后忘记它。

还有的歌，好听得一遍一遍听到腻得从Mp3里删掉，然后有一天又把它找回来，再听、再删、再找回来。

Vanity就是这样一首歌。

Fiction，2003年出版，有日文和英文两个版本，日文版比英文版多收录了几首歌。

梶浦由記，最早知道她是和南里侑香合作的那首气势恢宏的《暁の车》。这位已经迈向大婶年纪的女士，无论她的音乐表现的是哀伤还是勇气，都永远饱满得让人热泪盈眶。很多经典的动漫以及游戏音乐均出自她的手笔。

第一次听这张专辑的时候，更为迷恋的是同张里的Fake Wings，天籁之音的那种，相比之下Vanity的曲调更为世俗一些。但是看过歌词之后再听，却更为震动。如果说Fake Wings是一见钟情的话，Vanity就是理智而坚定不移的感情和执着的誓言。

死生契阔，与子成说。执子之手，与子偕老。

Vanity

Vocal: Emily Bindiger

Enter the scenery of love
Lovers are in pain
They blame and pick on each other
You play melodies of love
Forgotten phrases tender and sweet

Come a little bit closer
Don't stay in the shadows my boy
The melody's fading.....
Now or never, love will go

I'll be there by your side
Share your fears in the silent redemption
Touch my lips, hold me tight
Live in vanity for a while

As winter melts in the sun
Boys will be out running and reaching for the light
Oh mother please find me in that place
Before the memories tear us into pieces

Clinging to affection
We somehow do learn to live
In endless motion
Never coming back, love will go

You'll be there by my side
You may never know my devotion
Feel my breath in the quiet night
Live in vanity for ever

Won't you feel my gentle emotion
Let us live in peace with conviction
If you're here please hold me.....
