  • "Slug" is a song by Passengers, a side project of rock band U2 and musician Brian Eno. It is the second track on Passengers' only release, the 1995 album Original Soundtracks 1. The track was originally titled "Seibu" and was almost left off the album before it was rediscovered later during the recording sessions. Though Eno made most of the creative decisions during the recording sessions, "Slug" was one of the few tracks that the members from U2 tried to craft themselves. Lyrically, it is a portrait of a desolate soul during a time of celebration. As Passengers were writing songs for fictional soundtracks, they tried to create a visual suggestion from the music that was more important than the story within the lyrics. In "Slug", the instrumentation is intended to represent the lights turning on in a city at night. The group primarily drew inspiration for the song from U2's experiences in Tokyo at the conclusion of the Zoo TV Tour. "Slug" was praised as one of the best songs on the album by critics from various publications. (en)
  • 《懶漢》(英語:Slug)是搖滾樂團U2和音樂人布萊恩·伊諾組成的“旅客”(Passengers)的一首歌曲。此歌曲是“旅客”的惟一一張專輯《》内的第二支曲目。歌曲原名《西武》(Seibu),並曾幾乎被排除在專輯之外,直至在專輯製作過程中方被重新發現。雖然伊諾在歌曲的製作過程中作出了大部分創作決定,此歌曲仍是少數幾支U2的成員自己嘗試參與製作的歌曲之一。 《懶漢》的歌詞反映的是在慶祝活動進行時一個凄涼的靈魂的寫照。當「旅客」在為虛構的原聲帶寫歌時,他們嘗試在音樂中創造出比歌詞中的故事更重要的視覺暗示。《懶漢》中所採用的樂器聲旨在營造城市在黃昏的燈光的視覺效果。U2主要是在1993年期間獲得寫下《懶漢》的靈感。《懶漢》被不同刊物的評論譽為專輯內最佳的幾首歌曲之一。 (zh)

  • "It's a portrait of somebody a little the worse for the wear, which we were all in Tokyo, because it was the end of the tour. So tired you can't sleep. Wanting to go out to see what's going on in the city and not being able to stop yourself though you should be looking after yourself better." (en)
