"Daylight Fading" is a single by the American rock band Counting Crows. It is the third single and also the third track of their second album ''Recovering the Satellites'' (1996). This song, along with previous releases such as "Mr. Jones" and "A Long December," had video rotation on MTV and VH1. Adam Duritz said about that song: "-At some point, it’s always going to happen…it’s a lifetime commitment. (Life’s) always going to go up, it’s always going to go down…. for me, at least. It may not be as extreme as it once was. There’s always going to be periods where I don’t write for a while, where I get sort of bitter. Maybe life will change and get better that way. But, you know, I wouldn’t…wouldn’t bet on it. It’s a one in a million thing to get what we got. Everybody that’s in our position wants….all of our friends at home, everybody wanted to be in a rock band. And, we have a lot of friends who are still playing music who are really good who haven’t had the success. We’re together, spending our lives playing music, unless we screw it up. I wouldn’t trade that for anything….any happiness… any peace of mind…there’s nothing in the world that I would trade for being able to do this with my life. Instead of having some wasted life like I thought I was going to have. At the same time, if you have difficulties coming into this sort of a situation, fame doesn’t necessarily fix them. It fixes some things, but it doesn’t fix any problems you might have with yourself. If you have problems dealing with people, all you have now is more people. Some of it actually exacerbates. It’s not a black and white thing, it’s a gray thing. There’s really parts of it I wouldn’t trade for the whole world, and parts of it I have trouble with, adjusting to those things. I’d really gone into hibernation and I didn’t know how to deal with the fact that the thing which was most important to me in my life was causing me the most pain and…um….fear that I’d ever been through. Fear….really, fear over what was happening. I was very scared dealing with all those people all of the time. Everywhere I went, I was really freaked out by that. Honestly, I can say “have you ever been scared of anything?” I was just scared. I didn’t dislike the people or anything, I just was….scared. And that was a weird thing to have…that the thing that you wanted the most in your life was causing you this sort of thing…this tape-loop you can get onto and it’ll drive you crazy. And I didn’t see any way out of it. Those songs are kind of about that…I just don’t know how to deal with this… I *didn’t * know how to deal with it. Now I just pretend its not happening. Because I’m not on the road yet. (In trance-like voice) I AM NOT HERE…I AM NOT HERE….THERE IS NO AUDIENCE HERE." The single peaked at #26 on the U.S. Alternative Songs chart. ==Track listing== # "Daylight Fading" - 3:50 # "Rain King" (Live) # "Daylight Fading" (Live) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Daylight Fading」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
