Bicycle Tricycle-Rosie Thomas

坦白说，假如一时之间听了太多轻柔甜美的民谣音乐，很容易造成混淆，个个都像喝白开水一样，分辨不出箇中奥妙滋味；然而，听著 Rosie Thomas 的作品，却丝毫不让人感受到这种烦恼：因为一样是温柔美丽的旋律、悠扬流畅的歌声，Rosie Thomas 营造出的氛围却极为独特－－她善於融合两种不同的极端：在那清亮甜美的嗓音中，隐隐透著饱经风霜的沧桑感；梦幻飘渺的色彩里，却又让人深刻感受到十足脚踏实地的草根气息。综观摇滚史上，似乎只有 Joni Mitchell能与之匹敌吧！
在她的音乐中，流露著对生命深切的感性与关怀，包括童年、梦想、爱、希望，都以极其诗意的方式，在清淡词句中呈现深刻感；简单的吉他、风琴、钢琴，交织出清新、简朴的音乐风貌，彷彿是杯蕴含无穷深邃滋味的顶级绿茶，沁人心脾，引人回味。
这张於 2002 发行於 Sub Pop 的《 When We Were Small 》，是 Rosie Thomas献给家人的一份深情挚礼；开场曲 “2 Dollar Shoes” 诉说著父母终将与子女分离，那种不舍却又无奈的情绪；”Farewell” 流露著悠缓的感伤，”Wedding Day”让婚礼上千头万绪的泪水更显晶莹剔透；”Lorraine” 诉说著女孩离家远行的心境，”Finish Line”、”October” 则以温柔的语调激励著对未来、对爱有疑问的每一颗心灵。”I Run” 则是这张专辑里风格比较特殊的一首，以较为阴黯、低幽的风格，歌唱著成长与生命的无奈、亟欲挣脱。”Charlotte” 也感嘆著对岁月流逝的无力，与接下来的 “Have You Seen My Love” 一样，以极缓板呈现出温柔、成熟的感受。”Bicycle Tricycle” 也是一首充满回忆感伤、归乡游子情怀的慢板歌曲。

歌词：
Bicycle tricycle take me far with
My hands on your handlebars.
I can’t be homecoming queen for every boy
That falls in and out of love with me.
I won’t look back
I’ve been here before
I’ve been here before
I’ll turn my back
Whatever it takes to let him go
Flower dress strawberry red
I must confess you’re my safety pin
Hold me together hide me well
So he cannot tell the state that I am in
I won’t look back
I’ve been here before
Been here before
I’ll turn my back
Whatever it takes to let him go
Roller skates figure eights
Roll me away and I won’t complain
I’ll bring my raincoat boots and umbrella
So he can’t ever rain on my parade
Bicycle tricycle take me far with
My hands on your handlebars
I can’t be homecoming queen for every boy
That falls in and out of love with me.
I won’t look back
I’ve been here before
I’ve been here before
I’ll turn my back
Whatever it takes to let him go
Flower dress strawberry red
I must confessyou’re my safety pin
Hold me together hide me well
So he cannot tell the state that I am in
I won’t look back
I’ve been here before
Been here before
I’ll turn my back
Whatever it takes to let him go
Rollerskates figure eights
Roll me away and I won’t complain
I’ll bring my raincoat boots and umbrella
So he can’t ever rain on my parade
