Yo! Per la mia prima recensione, scelgo Snowball degli inglesi Field Mice.
Un mini Lp di otto tracce, pubblicato nel 1989, tra un singolo e l'altro, dalla mitica Sarah Records. Etichetta ormai defunta, che diede spazio nel proprio catalogo a ottimi gruppi: Orchids, Sea Urchins, Blueboy, etc...
Protagonista nei brani di questa raccolta è la malinconia. La si può trovare in modi diversi, come nelle più frizzanti "You're Kidding Aren't You" e"This Love Is Not Wrong" o nel proto dark, super chorus di "Letting Go". Le sfumature riconducono al Post Punk, alla New Wave e a quel genere, che verra etichettato come Shoegaze. Elementi ben miscelati in "White", pezzo caratterizzato da stratificazioni, distorti e da una certa incazzatura quasi vulnerabile. I brani rimanenti, sono più soffici e sembrano avere come qualità, quella di poter cullare l'ascoltatore.
Mezz'ora di quello che considero il vero indie-pop scuola anni 80.

04 Couldn't Feel Safer ()
In this dark room, in this bed
When you hold me like this,
You're so secure
Your body that you press
My body to is very warm
Right now I fear nothing
I couldn't feel safer
I couldn't feel safer
I always feel this way, that no harm can come to me
When I'm in your company
I always feel this way, that no harm can come to me
When I'm in your company
In this dark room, in this bed
When you hold me like this,
You're so secure
Your body that you press
My body to is very warm
Right now I fear nothing
I couldn't feel safer
I couldn't feel safer
I always feel this way, that no harm can come to me
When I'm in your company
I always feel this way, that no harm can come to me
When I'm in your company
