大阪のインディーポップ・トリオ、Les Glass Glacéが、繊細かつ軽快な２曲をネットで公開しました。個人的にはハイライトな、”Sixpence Might Change Your Whole World”では、”ex-boyfriend couldn’t understand/ sixpence might change your whole world”という可愛らしい歌詞にそぐう、淡くポップなシンセを堪能できます。暖かい雰囲気は、曲の流れに沿ってさらにアップビートに。一方で、”Cute And Reliable”はどちらかというと取っ付きにくい印象。よりミニマルでスローなこの曲では、”he’s a really nice guy/let’s go see him”という歌詞のように少し現実的すぎるかも。でもリラックスしたこの曲に始まり、”Sixpence”が次に来ると考えると納得です。視聴は以下から。
Osaka indie-pop trio Les Glass Glacé has two new songs online right now that are worth your time if you like delicate-but-bouncy music. “Sixpence Might Change Your Whole World” is the highlight, a bit of twinkly twee hop-scotch featuring keyboards and the lyric “ex-boyfriend couldn’t understand/ sixpence might change your whole world.” It’s gleeful stuff that only gets more upbeat as the song progresses. “Cute And Reliable” isn’t as immediately pleasing – the music is more minimal and slower, and the lyrics hinge on the line “he’s a really nice guy/let’s go see him” which isn’t particularly intriguing, even for a genre known for making the everyday sound fantastical. It is pleasant, though, and a nice break following the skippy “Sixpence.” Listen below.
