2013 年 Mountains of sorrow, Rivers of song 專輯終獲葛萊美獎入圍肯定,旋律與思想明顯更勝一籌的 Mission Bell 當年卻沒有獲得任何提名,著實是個詭異的事實。2016年的新專輯 Spirits 嘗試往主流流行音樂方向做出改變,加入許多電子音樂或嘶吼唱腔元素,反到那種吟遊詩人的特質消失了。歌曲好聽歸好聽,卻少了 Amos Lee 先前既瀟灑又滄桑的尾韻。2018年發表的 My New Moon 第一軌 No More Darkness, No More LIght 令人驚喜的重現了出道兩三年時 Supply and demand 專輯輕鬆但深刻的民謠曲。且降低了先前那種拿已複製的轉音,變的易於歌唱,跟著影片一同哼唱,人生真是愜意之至。

No More Darkness, No More Light (不再黑暗,不再光明)
You stare at the broken mirrors
妳凝視著破碎的鏡子
Shattered reflections of the past
Shattered reflections of the past
把過去的陰影撕碎
I think we may be standin' in the same
I think we may be standin' in the same
我覺得我可能已站在同一塊
Shadows that been cast
Shadows that been cast
投射出的陰影下
Darkness, no more darkness
黑暗,不再黑暗
The broken days have beat the dead of night
The broken days have beat the dead of night
破碎的日子打破了夜之寂靜
Darkness, no more darkness
Darkness, no more darkness
黑暗,不再黑暗
No more darkness, no more light
No more darkness, no more light
不再黑暗,不再光明
And a trail we choose to follow
我們選擇遵循的小徑
It's as cursed as it is blessed
It's as cursed as it is blessed
如同被祝福一般被詛咒
Is there mercy that we all must face
Is there mercy that we all must face
我們所有人都必須被同情嗎?
Before the dead can raise?
Before the dead can raise?
在逝者能重生之前?
Darkness, no more darkness
黑暗,不再黑暗
The broken days have beat the dead of night
The broken days have beat the dead of night
破碎的日子逐走了夜之寂靜
Darkness, no more darkness
Darkness, no more darkness
黑暗,不再黑暗
No more darkness, no more light
No more darkness, no more light
不再黑暗,不再光明
And if you listen to the song that settled on the breeze
如果你聽聽那細草微風的歌
A woman sings unto our baby boy
A woman sings unto our baby boy
像一個女人唱給我們孩子的歌
I won't live to see the day that you'll be lifted off your knees
I won't live to see the day that you'll be lifted off your knees
我不會活著看到妳像我懺悔的那一天
Some days it feels so hopeless
有時我感覺如此絕望
Nothing's makin' any sense
Nothing's makin' any sense
所有事都了無意義
Flags we raise in praise of ruthless
Flags we raise in praise of ruthless
我們舉起白旗,歌頌著無情
Supposes innocence
Supposes innocence
與推定的清白
