이 노래 처음 듣고 정말 소름돋는 가사와 그루브라고 생각했습니다. 이런 노래가 왜 유럽에서만 반짝 떴는지 의문이었는데 새 앨범 발매 소식에 다시 찾아보니 그새 빌보드며 외국 차트를 모두 점령하고 뮤비까지 나왔네요... 이 좋은 노래를 세계인이 듣고 감동하고 공감했다는 것이 참 잘된 일이네요 ㅠㅠㅠ
이거 내가 중딩때 영어시간 수업 들가기전에 쉬는 시간이 있는데 우리 쌤이 매일 노래 틀어주셨엇는데 " 이번엔 내가 점 슬픈 노래를 가져왔어. 이거 듣고 한번 우리 과거에 대해 이야기 해보자." 하면서 틀어주셨엇음. 들을때 내가 20살 이였지. 이말 듣자마자 뭔가 좀 마음 한구석이 뭉클 해지더라. 정말 저분 가사가 너무 마음에 듬
룰루랄라 그분이 커버한노래가 느낌상으로 더 애절하게 느껴질수밖에 없는게 여성분이다보니 더 목소리가 얇고 발음을 굴리면서 박자를끌어가듯이 노래를부는부분이 조금씩 있기도하고 루카스그레이엄은 마이크에 울림이 많이없는데 커버곡은 울림이라고해야하나 에코라고해야하나 쨋든 그런게좀 들어가있어서 더 애절하게느껴질수밖에 없어여 물론 개인취향차이도 좀 들어갑니다 ㅇㅇ
나는 아직 젊음밖에 경험해보지 못해서 시간이 흐르면서 더욱 성장할 나를 상상하지만, 더 시간이 흘러 이제는 성장하는 것이 아니라 늙어가게 되었을 때 인간에게 시간이 흐른다는 것이 어떤 의미로 다가올지 생각해보게 되네요. 어렸을 때는 그냥 웃긴 노래라고 생각했는데 전혀 웃긴 노래가 아니었군요..
Once I was seven years old my mama told me Go make yourself some friend or you'll be lonely Once I was seven years old It was a big big world but we thought we were bigger Pushing each other to the limits we were learning quicker By eleven smoking herb and drinking burning liquor Never rich so we were out to make that steady figure Once I was eleven years old My daddy told me Go get yourself a wife or you'll be lonely Once I was eleven years old I always had that dream like my daddy before me So I started writing songs I started writing stories Something about that glory Just always seemed to bore me 'Cause only those I really love will ever really know me Once I was twenty years old My story got told Before the morning sun when life was lonely Once I was twenty years old Lukas Graham! I only see my goals I don't believe in failure 'Cause I know the smallest voices They can make it major I got my boys with me at least those in favor And if we don't meet before I leave I hope I'll see you later Once I was twenty years old My story got told I was writing about everything I saw before me Once I was twenty years old Soon we'll be thirty years old Our songs have been sold We've traveled around the world and we're still roaming Soon we'll be thirty years old I'm still learning about life My woman brought children for me So I can sing them all my songs And I can tell them stories Most of my boys are with me Some are still out seeking glory And some I had to leave behind My brother I'm still sorry Soon I'll be sixty years old my daddy got sixty-one Remember life and then your life becomes a better one I made a man so happy when I wrote a letter once I hope my children come and visit once or twice a month Soon I'll be sixty years old Will I think the world is cold Or will I have a lot of children who can warm me? Soon I'll be sixty years old Soon I'll be sixty years old Will I think the world is cold Or will I have a lot of children who can warm me? Soon I'll be sixty years old Once I was seven years old my mama told me Go make yourself some friends or you'll be lonely Once I was seven years old Once I was seven years old
