Passenger Seat

世上不一定每件事都需要目的，每一步都需要一个目的地
就像兜风一样，没有明确的目的地，却是那过程最让人著迷

坐在机车后座在路上奔驰
迎面而来的风，让眼睛只能半开著
却还足够让我欣赏路过的每一道风景
周围的树木、街灯、马路看似在快速地往后退

你转过头对我说的话，听不清
却足以让我的嘴角微微上扬
你那大一号的头盔会不小心把我眼睛遮住
却还是想要把它占为己有

这段毫无目的地的兜风流浪
眼前的风景你永远占据了三分一
或许，这就是属于后座的浪漫。

吴诺贝首支原创单曲《Passenger Seat》让你光靠听的就能感受到在路上奔驰的风。这首歌记录著吴诺贝在台湾度过的第一个夏天，每一天坐在机车后座，无拘无束地穿梭在大大小小的巷子，映入眼帘的尽是一道又一道珍贵且无价的风景。

Hop on the scooter, we’re going on an unwritten adventure.

The wind is in my face, my eyes are half lidded, yet I see everything so clearly.
The trees, the street lights, the road all whizzes past me, yet I feel so grounded.

You turn around to tell me something but the wind snatches away your words. I smile anyway, adjusting the helmet that is just a little too big on my head, and lean in closer so I don’t miss what you say next.

Our directionless rides around Tainan will forever be etched in my mind, your strong back obscuring a third of my view. This - is the irresistible charm of your passenger seat.

Noel Ng’s debut single 《Passenger Seat》 is meant to be screamed out at the top of your lungs whilst on the backseat of a scooter bike. Written during her first summer in Taiwan, this acoustic-guitar-lead track sets out to capture the carefree spontaneity of youth as she adventures across the country.

[Verse]
“Where to go?”
you ask me
I smile a little shyly
“Do you want coffee or tea?”
“Do you feel like ice cream?”
“Or seeing the sea?”
Where are you going to take me?

[Pre-chorus]
I put on my helmet
It doesn’t really fit
You wiggle a little
To make room for me
You turn around and ask me if I’m ready

[Chorus]
And I am feeling so free
My hair streaming
The wind singing
And I am feeling so free
I’m laughing screaming dancing spirits flying
On your passenger seat

[Verse]
The green of the mountains
The blue of the sea
There’s something about your backseat
The smile on your lips
When you turn to look at me
I could stay here for eternity

[Pre-chorus]
I put on my helmet
It doesn’t really fit
You wiggle a little
To make room for me
You turn around and ask me if I’m ready

[Chorus]
And I am feeling so free
My hair streaming
The wind singing
And I am feeling so free
I’m laughing screaming dancing spirits flying
On your passenger seat
[Bridge]
You pulled the brakes so suddenly
No time to react
Inertia threw me off your backseat
You left me on the ground
With the dust in my face
Is this goodbye?

[Chorus]
And I am feeling so free
My hair streaming
The wind singing
And I am feeling so free
I’m laughing screaming dancing spirits flying
On your passenger seat

Me on your passenger seat
