一年365天,總有那麼一天,大家搶著讚揚傻子,因為剩下的364天,你當了傻子,可沒人會笑著對你說,你真傻!
美國饒舌男歌手Foster形容自己是「悲歌機器」(sad song machine),他的這首”fools (can’t help falling in love)”取樣自貓王Elvis Presley的經典名曲”Can’t Help Falling In Love”,把一首大家從小到大聽到爛的經典名曲改編成一首這麼新潮的lo-fi hip hop,還找來英國女歌手Sody來演唱耳熟能詳的貓王名曲副歌,而他則是重新創作了饒舌歌詞,呈現一種又新又舊的強烈對比,而Foster苦澀的饒舌歌詞描述了他為愛犯傻的種種單戀表現,雖然看起來有幾分像少年維特的煩惱,畢竟大部分都是他在腦中的小劇場,感嘆自己總是單戀的那一方,明明自己都比那些追求者好上幾百倍,儘管如此,他還是無法控制自己墜入愛河⋯⋯。
I wonder if I’m ever on her mind like she’s on mine
Probably not
Swear I’ve never seen a girl so fine
She probably got tons of guys tryna hit her line
And take her time, I guess I better step in line
She got me shook
Fell in love on the first look, typical
Always catching feelings when the feeling’s not reciprocal
Love is just so difficult
Builds you up then tears you down
Every time she comes around
I’ma, I’ma, I’ma, I’ma
Fool for her
Acting cool for her
She’s too bad for me
But I’m too good for her
She makes me so nervous, probably on purpose
She’s just so perfect
I just can’t help it
