基音乐队（Keane）是一支来自英国东南部东萨塞克斯郡（Sussex）的巴特尔小镇（Battle）的摇滚乐乐队。成员有钢琴手、作曲人兼编曲人Tim Rice-Oxley，主唱和风琴手Tom Chaplin，以及鼓手Richard Hughes。。他们的头两张专辑：希望与恐惧（Hopes and Fears）和深海之音（Under the Iron Sea），在英国发售时销量都排名第一，在世界各地也都有非常好的销量。

　　今天我们听到的“怎么会？”（Is It Any Wonder?），出自第二张专辑，是在专辑发布之前抢先发行的单曲，自单曲发行后迅速登上了英国单曲榜第三位。好，让我们来一起学习这首Is It Any Wonder?。

　　I
　　I always thought that I knew
　　I'd always have the right to
　　Be living in the kingdom of the good and true
　　and so on

　　but now I think how I was wrong
　　And you were laughing along
　　And now I look a fool for thinking you were on, my side

　　Is it any wonder I'm tired
　　Is it any wonder that I feel uptight
　　Is it any wonder I don't know what's right

　　Sometimes
　　It's hard to know where I stand
　　It's hard to know where I am
　　Well maybe it's a puzzle I don't understand

　　But sometimes
　　I get the feeling that I'm
　　Stranded in the wrong time
　　Where love is just a lyric in a children's rhyme, a soundbite

　　Is it any wonder that I'm tired
　　Is it any wonder that I feel uptight
　　Is it any wonder I don't know what's right
　　oh, these days
　　After all the misery you made
　　Is it any wonder that I feel afraid
　　Is it any wonder that I feel betrayed

　　Nothing left inside this old cathedral
　　Just the sad lonely spires
　　How do you make it right

　　Oh, but you try
　　Is it any wonder I'm tired
　　Is it any wonder that I feel uptight
　　Is it any wonder I don't know what's right
　　oh, these days
　　After all the misery you made
　　Is it any wonder that I feel afraid
　　Is it any wonder that I feel betrayed
