}} "Milk" is a 1996 single written, recorded and produced by alternative rock group Garbage. "Milk" was issued as the fifth and final single to be taken from the band's multi-platinum debut album ''Garbage''. In North America, the single coincided with Garbage's trek around the continent performing as a support act for the Smashing Pumpkins arena tour. A brand new reworked version of "Milk" was released in the United Kingdom, featuring backing vocals by UK trip hop musician Tricky.〔 After an acclaimed performance of "Milk" by the band at the 1996 MTV Europe Music Awards, as well as winning the "Breakthrough" award on the night; "Milk" debuted at #10 on the UK Singles Chart.〔 The reworked version, without Tricky's vocals, was also released as a single across Europe and in Australia and New Zealand.〔 In 2007, "Milk" was remastered and included on Garbage's greatest hits album ''Absolute Garbage''.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=New Best Of Album )〕 ==Song history== "Milk" was written and recorded by Garbage (Duke Erikson, Shirley Manson, Steve Marker and Butch Vig) at their own recording studio during the 1994-1995 sessions for ''Garbage''. Manson was inspired by a line in Michael Ondaatje's ''The Collected Works of Billy the Kid'' ("her throat is a kitchen") and alluded to it in her lyrics for the song. At its base, Manson believed the song was "a seduction, almost like a siren song".〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JYRXIAyRU8o )〕 The most electronic based song on the album, "Milk" is also one of singer Shirley Manson's favourite tracks from it. She told Melody Maker "It's a dichotomy, a paradox. The thing I really like about "Milk" is the fact that it's been dismissed by people as the ballad at the end of the album. To me "Milk" is the darkest, most hopeless of the songs. People say 'Oh, it's lovey-dovey, so therefore it's a love song'. But it's a very bleak song, it's about loss and the fear of loss; about things you can't have and things you will forever wait for."〔"Melody Maker" Issue November 96 (accessed October 10th, 2006)〕 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「Milk (song)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
