And so life goes on...

後天就要去德國, 好一陣子不會更新網誌了. 所以現在先打一篇文章充數吧, 大家可以聽個歌.

上次在倫敦的時候, 有一天晚上我跟Imi聊起了披頭四, 因為她熱愛披頭四. 後來她問我一個問題, 她說 如果你現在要到一個荒島上, 只能帶三首歌陪你到荒島上, 你會帶哪三首? 我考慮了一下, 喜歡的歌手跟歌很多, 包含披頭四也是. 但是要選出有意義的三首歌有點難. 我想了一下目前只想的到兩首, 這兩首都是曾經是我的心情寫照, 都是聽了很有感覺的歌

Pink Floyd的Comfortably Numb - 我曾經放在我的網誌上當過背景音樂. 歌詞滿有意思的, 故事是在講Pink(Pink Floyd的虛構主角)要去開演唱會之前, 他的醫生要幫他打一針讓他有體力去開演唱會. 歌詞也是 Pink跟醫生的對話. 歌曲本身是由Roger Waters跟David Gilmour兩個人來分別飾演兩角. 是一首百聽不膩, 很有感覺的一首歌.


歌詞:
Hello.
Is there anybody in there?
Just nod if you can hear me.
Is there anyone home?

Come on, now.
I hear youre feeling down.
Well I can ease your pain,
Get you on your feet again.

Relax.
I need some information first.
Just the basic facts:
Can you show me where it hurts?

There is no pain, you are receding.
A distant ships smoke on the horizon.
You are only coming through in waves.
Your lips move but I cant hear what youre sayin.
When I was a child I had a fever.
My hands felt just like two balloons.
Now I got that feeling once again.
I cant explain, you would not understand.
This is not how I am.
I have become comfortably numb.

Ok.
Just a little pinprick. [ping]
Therell be no more --aaaaaahhhhh!
But you may feel a little sick.

Can you stand up?
I do believe its working. good.
Thatll keep you going for the show.
Come on its time to go.

There is no pain, you are receding.
A distant ships smoke on the horizon.
You are only coming through in waves.
Your lips move but I cant hear what youre sayin.
When I was a child I caught a fleeting glimpse,
Out of the corner of my eye.
I turned to look but it was gone.
I cannot put my finger on it now.
The child is grown, the dream is gone.
I have become comfortably numb.


第二首歌則是一位很年輕的英國女歌手, Adele, 的Chasing Pavement. Adele年紀輕輕(19還20) 聲音卻如此的有磁性. 也印證了會唱歌的人, 誰管你外型如何? 不過這首歌我好喜歡.



歌詞:
I've made up my mind, don't need to think it over
If I'm wrong I am right, don't need to look no further
This ain't lust, I know this is love

But if I tell the world, I'll never say enough
'Cause it was not said to you
And that's exactly what I need to do if I'd end up with you

Should I give up or should I just keep chasing pavements
Even if it leads nowhere?
Or would it be a waste even if I knew my place
Should I leave it there?
Should I give up or should I just keep chasing pavements
Even if it leads nowhere?

I build myself up and fly around in circles
Wait then as my heart drops and my back begins to tingle
Finally could this be it?

第三首, 我目前有太多歌了, 像是Elton John的Sorry Seems to Be the Hardest Word, Beatles的While My Guitar Gently Weeps, 或是莫文蔚的愛 我也很喜歡.
