藝人名稱:The Verve (神韻合唱團)
專輯名稱:This Is Music: The Singles 92-98 (92 ~ 98年新歌+精選)
發行公司:EMI
音樂型態:Rock
1990年,Verve於英國西北部Lancashire郡的Wigan組隊,
Richard、Pete、Simon在就讀Upholland高校時結為好友,
隨後找來唸Winstanley大學的Nick組團,
The Verve展開駐唱後旋即獲得傳媒青睞,紛紛以驚人、不朽等字眼來形容樂團的現場功力,
在好評嘉勉聲中,更堅定了Verve發表專輯的決心。
91年9月,Verve與Hut Recordings廠牌簽約,
92年初展身手就以"All In The Mind"、"She's A Superstar"、"Gravity Grave"等3首單曲搶下獨立榜的龍頭,
93年5月,Verve前進美國,應邀擔任The Black Crowes樂團的巡迴演唱開場,同時也發表另一首單曲"Blue",
同年6月,Verve發行首張專輯「A Storm In Heaven」,此張作品推出後深獲樂界側目,
英國樂評激賞為'90年代的迷幻搖滾新經典',
94年對Verve而言可說是麻煩連連的一年,
首先樂團在參加Lollapalooza音樂祭時陷入混亂的局面,
再來是在美國爵士名廠Verve的抗議下,樂團被迫要在團名前冠上The,正名為The Verve後,
樂團與製作名匠Owen Morris合作第2張專輯「A Northern Soul」,
專輯融合了剛強、脆弱、濃烈、生動、傷感氛圍、旋律性、自由性格等特質,英國傳媒再度抱以熱烈喝采,
推崇The Verve為90年代的搖滾樂留下傲人的風采,
Richard自承這是一張串連了痛苦、雀躍、性慾、迷失、浪漫等情緒的專輯,
一張發自靈魂、植入人心的專輯,專輯中的"This Is Music"、
"On Your Own"紛紛在95年夏季攻進英國金榜TOP 40。
在經歷散攤傳聞後,97年,The Verve在加入新團員Simon Tong後重新出發,
再度以專輯「Urban Hymns」震撼全英,專輯與單曲"Bitter Sweet Symphony"、
"The Drugs Don't Work"在英國金榜上駐留超過一年以上,此張與Youth、
Chris Potter等製作高手合作的專輯不僅再次入選年度最佳專輯,
更為90年代的英國搖滾豎立了全新的里程碑,同時也為樂團拿下成軍以來的首張英國金榜冠軍專輯成績,
樂團隨後也在Reading音樂祭中激盪超強的搖滾能量與搖滾熱情,就在攀登顛峰之際,
樂團卻在98年4月發布了解散的消息,讓樂界與樂迷深感惋惜。
2004年11月,The Verve精選大碟【This Is Music: The Singles 92-98】豋場,
與樂迷重溫The Verve的光榮歲月,精選大碟蒐集了樂團歷年的英國金榜暢銷曲,
包括97年跳登英國金榜的搖滾國歌
"Bitter Sweet Symphony"[*電影「危險性遊戲」主題曲]、
樂團首支英國金榜冠軍曲"The Drugs Don't Work"、
英國金榜TOP 7單曲"Lucky Man"以及"This Is Music"、"On Your Own"、
"History"等TOP 40單曲,精選大碟中同時還收錄了兩首樂團在錄製「Urban Hymns」專輯期間所灌錄,
但從未發表的歌曲"This Could Be My Moment "、"Monte Carlo"。

歌詞:
'Cause it's a bittersweet symphony, this life
Try to make ends meet
You're a slave to money then you die
I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down
You know the one that takes you to the places
where all the veins meet yeah,
No change, I can change, I can change, I can change
But I'm here in my mold, I am here in my mold
But I'm a million different people
from one day to the next
I can't change my mold, No, no, no, no, no
Well I never pray
But tonight I'm on my knees yeah
I need to hear some sounds that recognize the pain in me, yeah
I let the melody shine, let it cleanse my mind, I feel free now
But the airways are clean and there's nobody singing to me now
No change, I can change, I can change, I can change
But I'm here in my mold, I am here in my mold
And I'm a million different people
from one day to the next
I can't change my mold, No, no, no, no, no
I can't change, I can't change
'Cause it's a bittersweet symphony, this life
Try to make ends meet
Try to find some money then you die
I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down
You know the one that takes you to the places
where all the things meet yeah
You know I can change, I can change
I can change, I can change
But I'm here in my mold
I am here in my mold
And I'm a million different people
from one day to the next
I can't change my mold
No, no, no, no, no
I can't change my mold
no, no, no, no, no,
I can't change
Can't change my body,
no, no, no
I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down
I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down
Been down
Ever been down
Ever been down
Ever been down
Ever been down
Have you ever been down?
Have you've ever been down?
Try to make ends meet
You're a slave to money then you die
I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down
You know the one that takes you to the places
where all the veins meet yeah,
No change, I can change, I can change, I can change
But I'm here in my mold, I am here in my mold
But I'm a million different people
from one day to the next
