闊別將近五年,90年代末期曾紅極一時的Travis(戴維斯樂團),在上個月發行了他們的新專輯Where You Stand。專輯名稱也相當有意思,敘說著近年逐漸淡出鎂光燈焦點的Travis,想回到最初出發點的渴望心境。
Where You Stand在發行首週攻占上英國專輯榜第三名,距離上一張擠進UK Album Charts前三名的專輯12 Memories,已經是將近10年前的事。
專輯首支單曲是和album同名的Where You Stand,第二支單曲則是Moving,也已經發行。
這次比較特別的是,Travis官方這次在YouTube提供專輯全曲目的完整試聽。

Travis–Where You Stand Lyrics
Bumper car me left or right
I'll take a thousand knocks
There's a happy man in there
And you won't blink your eyes
Like all the things you lost before I
Cracked when you left me you know-oh
Like all the things you found
Mmm mmm
Don't taste them just swallow them whole
I forfeit my time
And wait while you make up your mind
So tell me if you ever find your flag
Cause I will be right by you where you stand
Lift me up or tear me down
I'll stand right up again
There's happy soul in there
But you won't let him in
Like all the things we say before we
Crumble and fall to the floor
Like all the things we try
Aye aye
I know where it's headed and so
I forfeit my time
And wait while you re-make up your mind up
So tell me if you ever find your flag
Cause I will be right by you where you stand
Oh I will be right by you where you stand
I will deliver
Where you stand I will not fall
Where you stand there is no ocean
Nor a river, nor a shore
I fall into line
And wait while you make up your mind
So tell me if you ever find your flag
I forfeit my time
And wait while you make up your mind
So tell me if you ever find your flag
Cause I will be right by you where you stand
Oh I will be right by you where you stand
Oh I will be right by you where you stand
