美国乡村音乐:Good As Gone——by Little Big Town

There's a cold feelin'
Runnin' up and down my spine
It seems to say "We're Just Wastin'Time"
It's like a bad movie
One I wish I'd never seen
The plot¹ gets old, Do you know what mean?
Don't try to tell me it ain't what it is

Chorus:
I'm Good
I'm good at seein' the signs
I'm good at reading between the lines
No use in hangin' on
'Cause you're good to go
And baby I'm good as gone

On a lost highway
I don't know how I got where I am
Take the next splitsville exit ramp
It's like a cheap vacation
One I thought we planned very well
Now we've checked out of the lovely love hotel
Don't try to tell me it ain't what it is

Repeat Chorus:
Don't try to tell me it ain't what it is

Repeat Chorus:
Baby I'm gone, I'm gone

Little Big Town这个乡村音乐组合是由Karen Fairchild，Kimberly Roads，Jimi Westbrook和Phillip Sweet成立于1998年。乐队一直致力于协凋（harmony）和多元化演唱风格，每个成员都能来上两手。就是这样一个不寻常的组合，一开始就在田纳西州打下了一片天，随后就加盟了Mercury² Records，但那里的制作理念同乐队的商业方式发生了冲突。在另一支乡村组合Dixie Chicks取得成功后，Little Big Town看中了他们的运作方式，于2000加盟了Dixie Chicks的唱片公司Monument Records，谁知这一等就是两年，2002年，才发行了第一张单曲，名字叫Dont Waste My Time。直到冬天才回到他们的正轨上出版了他们同名专辑。2005年又出版了第二张专辑The Road to Here。

乐队四个成员均拥有一定的创作能力及演唱能力，所以很难找出一个灵魂来，这对乐队风格融合的确是一项不小的挑战，但这两男两女的努力及配合使得这个问题看来根本就不需要担心。但愿拥有正统country music的Little Big Town会给我们带来更大的突破。
