从第二张专辑《La Disparition》开始，Keren Ann在民谣中加入了更多爵士和布鲁斯的元素，据说是因为听了不少Chet Baker和Tom Waits的东西。这一特点在这张《Not Going Anywhere》也有体现，只不过Keren Ann布鲁斯民谣更低调，略带颓废的清淡语调一直贯穿于小夜曲一般的主题曲中，贯穿于《End Of May》梦幻般的和声中，也贯穿于唯一一首节奏强烈的《Sailor And Widow》之中。甚至连像圣诞童谣一样的《Right Now And Right Here》、唯美极致的香颂《By The Cathedral》和带有一丝拉丁吉他色彩的《Spanish Song Bird》，也无一不笼罩在一层感伤的淡淡雾气中。而早先的Trip-Hop节拍表象已然隐匿，转化成为Beth Gibbons似的内在阴郁。
有 人说Keren Ann的东西适合作为全世界任何一家咖啡馆的背景音乐，显然这也很合理，但窃以为如此华美却又极简矜持的作品更适合于私人聆听。它让生活可以变得轻巧和美 丽，“我尽量不记起，胜过再去忘记”；也可以暂别执迷和浮躁，面对潮起潮落人来人往却“Not Going Any Where”。生活不在此处的庸俗和别处的虚妄，那么生活在内心，感觉就像当年听见Sparklehorse唱着“我想作一匹马，充满永不蔓延的火焰。
The pale blue light along the coast
Is one of those I miss the most
There was that day
You touched my hair
And said, my love, it's so unfair
It's too late to sit in the sun
And lately we've just begun
Oh it's too late to tell everyone
But lately we've just begun
The one thin light that drove the peer
Seems very far when you are here
There was that day
You took my hand
And said, my love, that's where it ends
It's too late to sit in the sun
And lately we've just begun
Oh it's too late to tell everyone
But lately we've just begun
It's too late to sit in the sun
And lately we've just begun
It's too late to tell everyone
But lately we've just begun
The pale blue light along the coast
It means the one
I like the most
There was that day
You touched my hair
And said, my love, it's so unfair
