The Place I Live歌曲歌词:
If I look
or if I don’t look
clouds are always passing over
the place I live.
The place I live
passing under
my feet while my mind wanders
in a sea of fog.
On a ridge
seeing through a hole in the fog
(“A thought out of nowhere comes passing through”)
I say to myself
(“I say to myself, like a voice on the wind”)
“Behold”
but I see nothing.
Rocks and water and wood
not speaking to me.
(“Left alone to wander above”)
Slow and uneasy and alive.
(“wanderer above the sea of fog”)
I mean the place lives
and clouds pass over
(“sitting on a ridge and watching clouds pass over”)
the landscape
a blanket on stone
(“where an ocean of glaciers rolled”)
Land waves are rolling.
(“Through a fog, this is a brief life.”)
(“Short and cold, momentarily.”)
(“A life as brief as the morning fog”)
Momentarily,
I come out from under.

Mount Eerie简介:
小简介
Mount Eerie is an Anacortes, Washington-based band fronted by Phil Elverum. Elverum is the principal member of the band, but he has collaborated with many other musicians on his records.
History
Following the release of The Microphones’ Mount Eerie album, Phil Elverum announced that he would no longer use the Microphones moniker, opting instead to record under the name Mount Eerie, after the area in Anacortes, Washington called Mount Erie. In an interview with CITR-FM’s Discorder in September 2003, Elverum gave his reasons for this change: “Mount Eerie is a new project. The Microphones was completed, or at least at a good stopping point. I did it because I am ready for new things. I am new.”[1]
Shortly after this announcement, Live in Japan, recorded during three days during Elverum’s tour in Japan in 2003, was released by K Records. Despite the fact that the album contained all new material, the album was credited to ‘The Microphones’. The quotation marks contained in the release are credited to the fact that Phil Elverum considered this to neither be a Microphones project, nor a Mount Eerie release.

Elverum has also created a 3-LP recording of Mount Eerie titled Live in Copenhagen, released by Burnt Toast Vinyl in late 2004. The first Mount Eerie studio album was “No Flashlight” Songs of the Fulfilled Night, released on Elverum’s own label, P.W. Elverum & Sun, Ltd. at What the Heck Fest in Anacortes, WA on July 16, 2005 and commercially released on August 16, 2005. Released domestically on vinyl LP (although the LP version contained a copy of the CD), the album contained an extremely large sheet of paper containing track-by-track liner notes and pictures.
July 2007 marked the release of another ambitious project, Mount Eerie pts. 6 & 7 a 132-page, hardcover coffee-table book of his photography, packaged with a 10″ record. This book is the first large-scale publication of his photography, and possibly presents closure to the Mount Eerie song cycle started in the album Mount Eerie by the now-defunct Microphones.
