Ghost from within

GHOST by Japan
music and lyrics: David Sylvian
When the room is quiet
The daylight almost gone
It seems there’s something I should know
Well, I ought to leave
But the rain it never stops
And I’ve no particular place to go
Just when I think I’m winning
When I’ve broken every door
The ghosts of my life
Blow wilder than before
Just when I thought I could not be stopped
When my chance came to be king
The ghosts of my life
Blew wilder than the wind
Well, I’m feeling nervous
Now I find myself alone
The simple life’s no longer there
Once I was so sure
Now the doubt inside my mind
Comes and goes, but leads nowhere
No need to be hurt anymore

五六年來都沒有哭過或是流眼淚。純粹是患病以後傾向以冷靜理智來看待自己的困境，幾年下來，成了慣性，也真成了個心冷的人。不過近來我又重新發現X Japan是一隊極為出色的樂隊。這些歌在我的硬碟中亦有五六年，但一直沒有深究。我不知道是因為主唱的聲音頗難入口，還是當時我沒甚麼故事可以讓他們的歌去攪動。 Read more…

I feel that I was a old man. I feel that my power is been taking away. I am way to early to become this old and weak, its like I have no desire to do anything. I am totally desperate and hopeless. Read more…
We are the champions

A song or a single page of a book can totally save your soul. I mean those tiny stuff could amazingly, strangely makes your heart better. In my case, my muse is the song “We Are The Champions” from Queen. It somehow pull me out of the melancholic shadow that have troubled me for a while. Everyone is familiar with this song. Perhaps this song is one of the most famous song in musical history among others like “Imagine” by John Lennon or bunch of songs by David Bowie.
I had a really hard time. I once felt that don’t want to live anymore for the first time. It was totally emotional. I was miserable for everything. Lots of pressures keep torturing me. I can’t sleep well for days, stomach was in bad condition all day long. Living such a life is not easy. Maybe I should admit that I am a pessimistic person. I don’t believe in any idea that could get me in a ordinary good life like Christianity. I work so hard but I in fact don’t get any point of being good except it could make your family happy and get you OK SALARY to become a SLAVERY simultaneously. The more I work hard, the more I feel lost. You can be very happy if you keep doing something you don’t really believe it. The past few months I did nothing but trying hard ignoring the ideas of committing suicide. I don’t want to give up all I have been doing.
Back to the song. Sport games frequently used the song for celebrating, yet, I found that the song is not so optimistic. Indeed the piano opening is strongly sad and solemn.That most recognized chorus blows in your mind which is full of pride. The song for me is not optimistic. It’s a song about strugglers, about people who struggles a lot in the world. The singer were bravely shouting something artistically complex. Strangely I felt sad, warm and released while listening the song. Yes, it was unexplainable like the depression comes for no reason.
陳奕迅+林夕：人間有冤，六月飛霜

當 未慣靜默靜得聽到心跳竟加倍緊張
未信自在在於天生天養 難以弱勝強 殺入戰場
最終 習慣為著獵取一身盔甲竟不怕損傷
為了夢幻日子得到保障 用惡夢結賬
烏托邦 販賣血汗變棟樑 [誰被誰越抬越上]
烏托邦 那獵物也是獵人 踏破了樹林
浮在半空寄生貨櫃箱
誰明白這異象
六月飛霜 個個笑得哀傷
誰又會鑑定誰正常 不知替哪個著想
欲求未滿 剩下砒霜 當菜汁分享
猶如吞仙丹上月亮 誰有膽設想這世間下場
當 習慣附和大家講的真理都得到獎賞
未慣十字路口挑選方向 離隊要膽量 拒絕跳牆
一輩子 血汗注入拍賣場 [誰被誰越抬越上]
一輩子 價值像泡沫上揚 誓與天較量
埋下理想栽種幻想
誰明白這異象
六月飛霜 個個笑得哀傷
誰又會鑑定誰正常 不知替哪個著想
欲求未滿 剩下砒霜 當菜汁分享
猶如吞仙丹上月亮 誰有膽設想這世間下場
即使你跟我比鬥已極平常
囂張得敢與天格鬥 才是榜樣
開天闢地之歌 轟轟烈烈 大合唱
如何憑人力綑綁一剎夕陽
如何憑財力去扭轉天亮 請拍掌
習慣了這異象 誰又在叫嚷
六月飛霜 世界怪得誇張
誰又去決定誰正常 不知哪個有異想
未曾盡興 剩下砒霜 當配方分享
誰來斗膽講仙丹會斷腸 誰有膽去相信過激立場
人人一把口一百種真相 誰說得漂亮
最可笑的 喊亦正常
最悲壯的 笑亦正常
哪一個可 發育正常
講講詞：
回歸以來，唯一受到中共全方位打壓的政治運動只有五區公投。每年七一？都亂不了事。零三年那次大家遊行完也很守秩序地回家去，給了中共喘息的政治空間，還以此沾沾自喜。六四？讓你們自我感覺良好一下，對政治壓力反過來還有舒解作用呢。公投醞釀期間的輿論氣氛就是各界全力寫衰。左報硬有硬打、扮中立的日月報則軟有軟打。當時會說人話的只有一家報紙。我記得當天林夕在專欄上也鼓動人們去投票，說「今天不投，還待何時」。 Read more…
黃耀明《絕色》—林夕筆下的盲觀音
On 30, Dec 2010 | 10 Comments | In 音樂 | By admin
聽音樂，自己不太著重歌詞。好的歌詞，看著是賞心樂事。可一首歌好，是好在音樂。好的歌詞救不到一首爛歌，一首好歌的歌詞卻可以是不知所謂的。Sigur Rós的歌詞是誰都聽不懂的自創語，但還是好音樂。
看見有些聽眾對這首新歌《絕色》的歌詞失望，我不以為然。失望，皆因期望太高。張國榮死後，妖魔鬼怪就只剩下一個黃耀明。而林夕又寫過太多精品給他。在這個歌手多、音樂人少的樂壇，對他們期望太高，不足為奇。 Read more…
凝結的淚：說黃耀明和林夕的《下一站天國》
On 14, Sep 2010 | 7 Comments | In 音樂 | By admin
黃耀明在【光天化日】的主打《下一站天國》似乎已經代表了粵語歌的一重極致。一重他和林夕自己亦無法超越的世界。這首歌的旋律、編曲恰恰正好代表著一種廣東歌的優良傳統：那種不慍不火的節奏，旋律不求一時一刻的大上大落。而是在音節的爬升和下沉之間不徐不疾地揮發著情感。 Read more…
光天化日

光天化日大碟中的點題作，但是最近才覺得很喜歡。這是其中一個現場版本。
光天化日(live)-黃耀明
作曲：黃耀明/Minimal 作詞：林夕
我對著青空許願 找一個寬廣的平原
不需要磚 不須要穿 跟你 幸福戀愛
赤腳踏過青草地 烈日憑甚麼好奇
風箏要飛雙戀至死 天公都造美
含著笑 我宣佈 共你高貴地擁抱
除下最漂亮錦袍 至少比蚯蚓驕傲
由我宣佈 共你於赤道起舞
誰若有十字架 請找愛去比武 去殉道
愛裡找不到恐懼 只恐怕找不到愛侶
相戀有福 幸運無罪 應該高呼萬歲
我很好 就算因快樂嘔吐
誰若有十字架 請找缺少愛的 去哀悼

田原，新迷幻
On 27, Jul 2010 | 2 Comments | In 音樂 | By admin
最近聽的是田原的個人專輯。已經多久沒有沒聽到負載著意境的音樂。音樂不只是歌，不是一些旋律歌詞拉雜在一起的東西，而是你能從中聽到連棉的音樂感、抽象的氣氛和意境。田原的歌便有這種一致感，你感覺到曲詞編監各個部份不是工廠的各個冰冷組件，而是有血有肉的有機體。 Read more…
