又來回憶老歌囉！今天要給大家介紹這首好聽的歌曲： Pure Shores 。這首歌收錄在 All Saints 2000年發行的第二張專輯 (Saints & Sinners) 中。同時，也收錄在 The Beach 電影原聲帶中。
先來說說這部電影，劇情大概是說，Richard 一個年輕的美國背包客旅行到東南亞，希望能在泰國體驗到不同於從前的生活。接著，無意間獲得了一張可以通往一個天堂之島的地圖，並且遇上了Françoise以及他的男朋友，因此，三人便依照著地圖的指引，一同前往那天堂之島… 我還記得這部電影中的天堂之島，還真是美呆了，也因此，當時對於東南亞那邊的海灘充滿憧憬… 而且，電影最後女主角的留言：’Parallel Universe. Love, Françoise’. 還真的相當引人思索！
再來，這部電影的主題曲：Pure Shores。則是由聖女合唱團所演唱，超級好聽！以下貼上這首歌的歌詞：
Lyrics and Music: William Orbit and Shaznay Lewis
I’ve crossed the deserts for miles
Swam water for time
Searching places to find
A piece of something to call mine
(I’m coming)
A piece of something to call mine
(I’m coming)
(I’m coming)
Coming closer to you
Went along many moors
Walked through many doors
The place where I wanna be
Is the place I can call mine
(I’m coming)
Is the place I can call mine
(I’m coming)
(I’m coming)
Coming closer to you
I’m moving
I’m coming
Can you hear, what I hear
It’s calling you my dear
Out of reach
(Take me to my beach)
I can hear it, calling you
I’m coming not drowning
Swimming closer to you
Never been here before
I’m intrigued, I’m unsure
I’m searching for more
I’ve got something thats all mine
I’ve got something thats all mine
Take me somewhere I can breathe
I’ve got so much to see
This is where I want to be
In a place I can call mine
In a place I can call mine
I’m moving
I’m coming
Can you hear, what I hear
It’s calling you my dear
Out of reach
(Take me to my beach)
I can hear it, calling you
I’m coming not drowning
Swimming closer to you
Moving, coming
Can you hear what I hear?
(Hear it out of reach)
I hear it calling you
Swimming closer to you
Many faces I have seen
Many places I have been
Walked the deserts, swam the shores
(Coming closer to you)
Many faces I have know
Many way in which I’ve grown
Moving closer on my own
(Coming closer to you)
I move it
I feel it
I’m coming
Not drowning
I move it
I feel it
I’m coming
Not drowning
I’m moving
I’m coming
Can you hear, what I hear
It’s calling you my dear
Out of reach
(Take me to my beach)
I can hear it, calling you
I’m coming not drowning
Swimming closer to you
(Take me to my beach)
I’m moving
I’m coming
Can you hear, what I hear
It’s calling you my dear
Out of reach
(Take me to my beach)
I can hear it, calling you
I’m coming not drowning
Swimming closer to you
(Take me to my beach)
[Repeat chorus to fade]
