昨天找來了「暮光之城」的電影原聲帶來聽，其中包含了Muse、Linkin' Park，還有近期人氣大增的Paramore等。不過ㄈ裡面我最喜歡的兩首歌是為Edward對Bella彈琴傳情場景的曲子，由名配樂家Carter Burwell所譜的「Bella’s Lullaby」。另外就是原聲帶中第十一首，由美國民謠搖滾歌手Iron and Wine（原名Samuel Beam）的Flightless Bird, American Mouth。在電影中是最後一幕裡Edward與Bella在舞會中緩緩起舞的配樂，旋律十分悅耳，有種平靜溫暖人心、浪漫的感覺。不過看了歌詞以及網路上的解釋，卻發現這應該是他描寫自己對美國的失望。不過歌曲旋律動人，很值得一聽。

I was a quick wet boy
Diving too deep for coins
All of your straight blind eyes
Wide on my plastic toys
And when the cops closed the fair
I cut my long baby hair
Stole me a dog-eared map
And called for you everywhere

Have I found you?
Flightless bird, jealous, weeping
Or lost you?
American mouth
Big bill looming

Now I’m a fat house cat
Cursing my sore blunt tongue
Watching the warm poison rats
Curl through the wide/white fence cracks
Kissing on magazine photos
Those fishing lures thrown in the cold and clean
Blood of Christ mountain stream

Have I found you?
Flightless bird, brown hair bleeding
Or lost you?
American mouth
Big bill, stuck going down
