[music] diamonds and rust

 歌手/表演者與所有聽眾/觀眾,在同一個空間時間當下的氛圍所產生的化學變化,是很迷人的。或許那該有一個很神祕的我不知道的專有名詞。所有人的記憶與生命都被改寫了。就在那一秒,以及之後的很多很多秒。或者是十幾年後的某一個瞬間,忽然想起了某年某月的某個夏天,曾經和誰親愛地在一起聽著某個歌手的演唱會,又或是瘋狂傷心地絕裂。生命的奧妙之處就在於你無法預知未來,你甚至也無法探知過去與現在。生命與時間是多麼奇妙的一場旅程。所有的過去與現在和未來其實都緊緊交織著,相連著,影響著,共生著。默默的很多人影響了你,默默的你也影響了很多的人。過去的人,現在的人,未來的人。到那時你方知原來那一晚對你有著不可思議的莫名影響。

 maximilian表演的那晚,他說,接下來我要唱一首情歌(他特別強調情歌,love song兩個字)。他問現場有沒有人正在戀愛中?戀愛中的人舉手。結果現場一片靜默後接著是一片笑聲。他又問一次,有沒有人在戀愛中,接下來這首歌是獻給戀愛中的人。然後有一個歌迷舉手了。maximilian看著那個歌迷說:this song is for you。然後便唱起來了。

 忽然又想起這件事。因為情歌實在太好聽。它勾起很多人心中最溫暖,最脆弱的那個部份。無論你的身份地位,你是什麼樣的人,你都躲不過愛情。

 然後,點這首Joan Baez演唱的Diamonds and Rust給大家欣賞吧。真是一場刻骨銘心的戀情。愛情似乎總是能擊中你的死穴,一槍斃命那種。否則就有負愛情之名了。

你忽然出現在棕色落葉裡
髮梢還帶著風雪
我們的呼吸都變成了白色的雲朵 
與冰冷的空氣融為一體...
你說你從來不是個會緬懷過去的人
那就給我別的解釋
你向來很善於遣辭用字
讓所有事情陷於一種曖昧而模糊不清的狀態
這樣也好 我現在也需要這樣的曖昧地帶
因為現在一切都太清楚了

親愛的 我真的愛你


Diamonds And Rust by Joan Baez

Well I'll be damned
Here comes your ghost again
But that's not unusual
It's just that the moonis full
And you happened to call
And here I sit
Hand on the telephone
Hearing a voice I'd known
A couple of light years ago
Heading straight for a fall
As I remember your eyes
Were bluer than robin's eggs
My poetry was lousy you said
Where are you calling from?
A booth in the midwest
Ten years ago
I bought you some cufflinks
You brought me something
We both know what memories can bring
They bring diamonds and rust
Well you burst on the scene
Already a legend
The unwashed phenomenon
The original vagabond
You strayed into my arms
And there you stayed
Temporarily lost at sea
The Madonna was yours for free
Yes the girl on the half-shell
Would keep you unharmed
Now I see you standing
With brown leaves falling around
And snow in your hair
Now you're smiling out the window
Of that crummy hotel
Over Washington Square
Our breath comes out white clouds
Mingles and hangs in the air
Speaking strictly for me
We both could have died then and there
Now you're telling me
You're not nostalgic
Then give me another word for it
You who are so good with words
And at keeping things vague
Because I need some of that vagueness now
It's all come back too clearly
Yes I loved you dearly
And if you're offering me diamonds and rust
I've already paid

[diary] she's so strong...

 週五又要動第二次牙周病手術,這回還要拔一顆智齒。自從生活裡多了牙周病手術這件事,我整個生活步調簡直都是為它而設定。例如開刀完後兩週內不宜出門,不能享用美食,我就會在手術前兩個星期內拚命參加各種活動,把能約的朋友都約出去吃飯,有種醫生告訴你只剩三個月生命可活那種末日感。

 然後今天去看了x-men。哈哈我一向挺愛看這種具有神奇超能力的電影,看每個人耍特異功能這簡直太酷了,這個可以使喚火,那個可以使喚風,那個出手成冰,那個又可以穿牆越壁,反正漫畫嘛,就是一整個天馬行空。所以看完電影千萬不要和我討論什麼邏輯或合理性的問題,因為:1,這是好萊塢的電影。2,這是漫畫!漫畫!OK?

 看完之後還是感覺小遜,以一部純粹商業娛樂片來講不太及格。整個橋段太老了,也不必寫什麼感想來浪費時間了。其實本來想看神鬼奇航2,因為那永遠的青春偶像Johnny Depp實在太帥。但最近生活空虛到一種大爆炸的程度,非找部電影看不可,那部要下週才上,緩不濟急。

 虧我百般期待,看完後只覺得:真是一部很可愛的電影。整個很可愛。因為每個人都很可愛,都有一種超能力,也沒有壞人大反派,因為大家只是理念不同。看電影的第一段我就想惡搞,因為萬磁王和查爾斯一起去看琴的時候,兩人異口同聲只說:she's so strong...而後來琴也真的很強,強到像大法師鬼片那種強,尤其是她臉上的鬼妝。

 我最喜歡超能力是萬磁王和暴風女。純粹就是一個帥氣。萬磁王最帥,隨便動動就發揮大磁場,最後搬移整座golden bridge真是挺酷也挺妙的(請不要問我有必要嗎,因為這是漫畫!)。唯一缺點是Ian McKellen實在太慈祥,怎麼看他都像那種很慈祥的爺爺。然後就是暴風女,雖然她的超能力有點遜沒那麼強,但是每次她做法的時候眼睛都會發出強烈白光變成白眼睛,我覺得這真是無與倫比的酷!如果有朝一日我寫科幻武俠,我就要創一種看一眼那個人就會瞎掉之類的奇功!史考特也不錯啦,雙眼冒火到要戴大墨鏡來遮的點子挺炫的。

 最後,就是那天在誠品看完bob dylan攝影集其實有被嚇到。因為認識這個人時他已經是老伯伯,他兒子甚至幾年前還組團wallflowers出了唱片。但看完攝影集才發現,這麼有才華,有地位,有份量的人,年輕時還這麼帥!帥翻!大頭小身體還頂一頭永遠不梳好似的爆炸頭!酷!

 然後看了他與joan baez的合照很好奇,上網查才又查出一堆故事。no direction home不知有什麼管道可以看到,挺想看的。才子與才女啊。看到一個資料說才女的diamonds and rust是為才子寫的,特地去找來聽。聲音和人一樣溫暖而堅毅。酷。

[diary] Joan Baez and Bob Dylan




 我每天的休閑活動好像是散步。

 由於住在古亭捷運站附近,下班後最常晃蕩路線就是從師大一帶閑晃至台大公館一帶。今晚閑晃至誠品台大店,他們最近不知道又在辦什麼展。反正以促銷為目的的展很多,隨便想個來頭都可以辦。新書又多又雜,一時瀏覽也難找到鍾情作品。隨性轉轉晃蕩至外文影像類叢書,平台上擺放一本很顯眼的攝影集Early Dylan。索性站著翻完。

 攝影真的很有意思,一幅照片指涉的想像無限。從被捕捉到的瞬間,你可以揣度出多少神祕的隱埋的故事。裡頭也有幾張Bob Dylan和Joan Baez的合照。

 這樣每天悠悠晃晃的在做什麼呢?希望有一天我可以找到答案。

 
 註:我在誠品看到的就是這一本,點進去還可以看書的內容,掃瞄了六頁。誠品售價是amazon的兩倍。

[handwriting] 戰爭搖滾::鴻鴻


 日前在聯合文學翻閱一個詩歌節的專題,他們找了陳黎和鴻鴻來談詩歌節。鴻鴻的文章令我再次噴淚了。他說他參與的詩歌節位於戰地,卻有很多年輕人冒著生命的危險,只為了來聆聽他們的詩作。唉,這世上為什麼有那麼多我們無法理解的仇恨,那麼多無謂而愚蠢的戰爭,又為什麼還有那麼多單純勇敢而又年輕的靈魂。

 鴻鴻同時刊出三首詩作,其中一首哈利波特放在他自己的部落。詩前的引言也教我噴淚。
 
兩百年來車臣持續反抗俄國的武力統治,至今有50萬人(達車臣人口半數)流亡國外。2004年9月1日車臣反抗軍劫持俄境貝斯蘭市一所小學,要求自車臣撤兵。俄軍拒絕談判,直接攻堅,造成171名兒童及約200名成人死亡。一名倖存兒童說:「當時我覺得哈利波特會來救我們。」


 我手抄另一首戰爭搖滾。之前上傳圖片沒留意到尺寸這類瑣碎的事,有一回朋友說我的圖片大到可以下載當桌布,我這才想到大圖還可以當桌布的妙用。這張手抄詩的尺寸也恰好可以使用做為桌布,而且把底色設定為黑色,感覺更加魔幻。因為有清楚的摺痕與光影的陪襯,所以感覺十分逼真,好像一張白紙真的飄浮在你眼前的電腦裡一樣。

[music] everything inside me is ill

安可曲wonderwall。


 為什麼自毀自悒自抑自殤的情緒總是格外吸引人,大概是大家都怕眾人皆睡我獨醒的孤獨。雖說口口聲聲想尋死,但獨自一人踏上黃泉路還是不免感到孤單。連尋死都怕寂寞。這時音樂成為我們最好的良藥。把淚水和悲傷都飄散在風中吧,唱完這一首歌我就忘記那個傷害我的人,從下一首歌開始我要成為全新的自己。把所有的灰暗過往,都化成歌曲裡的音符飄散在揮發的酒精裡吧。

 Maximilian的歌曲有多麼灰色晦暗,不僅僅表現在他纖細敏銳,優美而善感的樂風裡,更顯於外的直接點於歌名。更別提他曾經翻唱了灰暗派代表人物Thome Yorke那首失戀自卑去死去死俱樂部的國歌creep彷彿似表白又似致敬的舉動了(你該聽過崇拜裡都帶有愛的成份這句話吧...噗...)。

 他的歌曲有多悲?everything inside me is ill,my love for you is insane,yeah eventually she goes,the days are long and filled with pain,cold wing blowing,anaesthesia,help me等,這些都只是憂傷的歌名而已,有沒有就教你很想死!在他的處女大碟裡他就充份展露他愛戀Thome Yorke自毀風格的愛意,直接在today一曲裡大唱:And today, I will kill myself. And today, my heart will stop running. And today, I will leave the world behind me...

 週日場他的安可曲是痛快地演唱多首翻唱歌曲。其中兩首搖滾國歌wonderwall及creep都是掀起全場合唱大熱浪的高潮重頭戲。我身旁的人無不張口大聲嘶吼唱和,透過最至高無上的感官放縱撕裂自己。更遑論那令人欲仙欲死的蒼白廢物國歌creep了。一個人尋死要多大勇氣,忽然一大票人一起高唱著:我是怪物,我是怪咖,我在這裡做什麼,我不屬於這裡!你說音樂是不是百憂解。絕對是!我想大家都差不多要趴到地板上去撿拾破碎了一地的心了。(噗)

 只見他先是掏出太陽眼鏡戴上,當wonderwall前奏響起,全場為之瘋狂。唱畢一曲,他接著脫去豎領外套,露出曖昧神情。此刻身上只穿著一件單薄深藍色T恤的Maximilian,搞笑的扭動著他那細瘦的軀體,很要死的調侃幽了Thome Yorke一默。更遑論全場情緒已經高漲至超越沸點,根本是整個徹底失控啦!

 這傢伙真是早有準備,還想到來這一招!唱罷這首瘋狂蒼白歌曲,他立刻穿回豎領外套,變身回原來那個溫文有禮似的德國深情憂鬱王子。當晚安可曲不只翻唱這兩首,但是這兩首K歌太紅,很自然成為當晚暴走級的安可曲。

經典版creep。

我的充電電池很沒出息地耗盡電量了。感謝朋友olive提供相機。


When you were here before
Couldn't look you in the eye
You're just like an angel
Your skin makes me cry
You float like a feather
In a beautiful world
I wish I was special
You're so fucking special

But I'm a creep
I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doing here?
I don't belong here

I don't care if it hurts
I want to have control
I want a perfect body
I want a perfect soul (這兩句maximilian的動作超級搞笑的!)
I want you to notice
when I'm not around
You're so fucking special
I wish I was special ....

 報告完畢。沒看到他現場的朋友,他今年秋天九月會發新片,應該仍是由前衛代理。週日晚上他也很搞笑的讓我們搶先聽了一曲。你們可以哀求前衛再去請他來一次。

 最後還是要很感性地說,感謝前衛請了Maximilian Hecker來台灣。更要感謝Maximilian Hecker帶給我們這麼美好而精彩的回憶。特別要感謝loou。很多人在做很多自以為渺小的事情時,其實不知道已經默默影響了很多人。走出the wall的那一晚,我覺得我生命裡有什麼一點點微小的地方被改變了,不再一樣了。因為這個夜晚,我想很多人的生命裡都有一塊很微小的地方,默默地被改變了。每個人的生命都是獨特而唯一的,所有的生命經驗都是當下而私密的。屬於我們每個人的Maximilian Hecker。屬於我們每個人的2006年6月25日。套用王家衛經典台詞的模式,這就是屬於我們每個人的那兩三個小時。那兩三個小時,我們和Maximilian Hecker及他的德國搖滾藝文知青團隊在一起。這是永遠的回憶。屬於我們每個人既私密,而又共同的回憶。

 不知何時前衛竟然神祕兮兮地搞了個新浪部落格,不是我在說,至少要在麥斯米蘭先前那個網頁放個聯結啊(還是我沒看到?)。不過新浪部落好像不是前衛花園的部落,目前看起來是麥斯米蘭的後花園歌迷俱樂部哈。

[music] anaesthesia




 興奮過頭之後,就是不斷地耽溺與一片空白。享受完了也懶得去解決整理或收拾,反正一切都過去了。高潮之後還有什麼呢。不過就是回憶。
 
 所以也就不堆砌些空洞華美的辭藻了。純粹寫感想。Maximilian Hecker之所以迷人除了音樂自然無他。他的歌聲有種巨大的憂傷及悲涼也就不必我再形容。有許多歌曲他刻意使用明顯的氣音,大概是要強調強化他的悲傷。也很有效。來自德國的他會玩出這麼抒情英式的東西令很多人意外,但你再仔細聆聽他音樂裡豐富的各種元素,細讀他早期不免也接觸過德國大宗電子樂風的背景你便會恍然大悟,從他如今豐富的背景你可以推敲出他的音樂迷死人不是沒有來由的。

 更令人著迷的是,他表裡不一的模樣。明明就梳著很乖很聽話很有氣質似的披頭,穿著豎領緊緊圍住脖子怕著涼似的外套拿著一把吉他時而溫文,坐下彈琴又簡直柔情到可以騙走許多少女為他去死的憂鬱王子模樣--沒想到上舞台也如此放得開!簡直是古往今來搞笑第一人!這落差之大更教人為他瘋狂。台下看來害羞內向又寡言的他,竟然可以在台上發揮出人來瘋的魅力,這不叫天生適合舞台該叫什麼。

[music] Tonight, Maximilian Hecker is in Taiwan!!

 看完表演回到家裡,一路上的心情是興奮的。今晚的感動不只是來自這個人,也來自於對整個音樂環境及唱片產業的一些想法。照片因為電池沒電,來不及整理到電腦裡。先把寫給loou的信整理一部份出來PO一下。

 這篇文章也要獻給the wall及所有台灣live house的經營業者及工作伙伴們。沒有live house,再美好的音樂都失去它該生存的地方及靈魂,只有live表演才能真正傳達出音樂的力量。

dear LOOU:

今晚實在太感動啦!!
你請Maximilian Hecker來台灣真是正確的選擇!!
你知道這兩晚會帶給多少人生命中不同的記憶嗎
我真的很感動
被這群可愛的音樂工作者給感動了!
雖然mp3這麼猖狂
音樂產業個個不知明天在哪
唱片市場只懂向錢看完全失去該有的靈魂及體質
他們這群人卻再次讓我體會到音樂的力量
音樂絕對不是只存在死板的cd唱片工業裡
歌手們快快出來走唱吧!!
Maximilian最後安可曲超經典的啦
掏出太陽眼鏡唱oasis wonderwall
還脫掉外套 靈出纖瘦軀幹唱creep
幽了Tohm Yorke一默超搞笑

今天太晚有空一定要寫感想
還要PO照
沒來聽演唱的人真是太可惜了
沒聽過 maximilian 的歌聲的人更可惜!

因為太感動忍不住連感想都武斷起來!!


 今晚表演結束,Maximilian和光頭吉他手,帥氣又愛學中文的貝斯手,還有最想紅的帥哥鼓手(因為他打鼓竟然還戴小禮帽,腳上穿一雙很炫的白皮鞋!)全部留下來為大家簽名拍照。照片拍了近一百張,有空時上線。

 最後安可曲大合唱的氣氛超HIGH!兩首K歌如wonderwall和creep簡直HIGH翻天!即便兩者都帶著輕鬆餘興趣味做了搞笑演出,大家都還是非常投入。身旁所有人都用盡力氣大聲合唱...我看大家只差沒有趴到地上去撿拾破碎的心了XD。
When you were here before

[music] Maximilian Hecker之老外遊台灣

 Maximilian Hecker來了!

 當phyllis前晚敲我,說她要重操舊業做伴遊時,我就猜到了!因為她和前衛loou已是舊識,肯定會找她幫忙的!當她告訴我Maximilian Hecker落腳處就在敝人公司隔壁大樓時,我原本已顯枯燥的辦公室鳥生活頓時顯得更加了無生趣...

 phyllis手腳也很快,立刻完成了老外遊記哦。有興趣的就參觀一下吧。然後你會發現,原來不僅來自德國的憂鬱王子很可愛,甚至連他的團隊都很有氣質,簡直就是來自德國的藝文知青搖滾團隊(這是什麼頭銜呀哈)!週末和週日的表演門票據說已全數賣光,但我心裡卻十分緊張。因為那代表那兩天the wall會擠到爆!

 另外,看到他的官網上一直放著624,625/taipei的字樣,就覺得一股莫名的高興。台灣的粉絲們多麼幸運啊。記得初次看到這個消息,是在zito9那裡看到的。因為他發表在星洲日報談Maximilian Hecker的文章被Maximilian Hecker的官網收錄聯結,進而得知Maximilian Hecker將來台灣表演的訊息。這個消息藉由部落格一一傳開,結果到最後搞得好像是近期訪台藝人裡的一樁大事。不過,現在想買票的朋友應該也來不及了。

 轉貼幾張去年他在巴黎演唱的照片。

[diary] disconnect

十八歲那年的夏天
南太平洋的島嶼
潮濕的雨季
穠艷的色彩
三十八度的高溫
熱浪襲擊
潮聲沖刷
我們
屬於燃燒的夏季

和這個世界
失去聯繫

[diary] 黏膩



趁著還未黏膩之前
我們先分手吧
(一種破碎的美好)
趁著還未融化之前
就先這樣含著吧
(一種可口的冰涼)
趁著煙霧還未消褪之前
先動手吧
(一種俱焚的毀滅)
趁著老去之前
先結束自己吧
(一場完美的實踐)

[drama] 人生劇展:高校有刀


 公視有一個時段叫做人生劇展,播映小巧精緻的一個半小時的小故事。我挺喜歡這種感覺,很快融入也很快結束,像是看一本短篇小說,也像在看一部迷你電影。之前在人生劇展看過鄭文堂導演的浮華淡水(寫過感想)和濁水溪的契約瞿友寧導演的誰在橋上寫字,還有許多記不得名字的點點點...。

 高校有刀播映完畢了,我守在電視機旁看完了整整一個半小時,卻偏偏錯過了網友們所謂開放式的結局,真扼腕。有什麼事比沒有看到一部戲的結局更令人扼腕?偏偏公視取消了原定的重播時段。如果大家想看,可能只得等到人生劇展的DVD上架了。

 這部戲裡有青春期單純美好的小小戀愛,有平地人與原住民之間的錯誤想像與敏感地帶,當然還有美味的料理(這回人生劇展的主題)。我從小到大的生活裡沒有和原住民朋友接觸的經驗,看完這部戲給我的一點震撼也就在於這個部份。這個部份是這部戲處理的重點之一。

 畫面和構圖都很漂亮,故事又很清新,高校有刀有自己的部落格,裡頭有許多劇照及拍戲過程的一些記錄文字,還有官方的一些新聞稿,有興趣的朋友歡迎過去挖掘。我先借用幾張劇照給大家欣賞(美呆了)。

[ 部份劇照及小圖說 ]
平地女孩趙姍姍非常喜歡擁有阿美及布農族血統的男孩PIYU,
常常PIYU、PIYU地叫他。

但男孩不喜歡她這樣叫他,他希望她在學校時可以叫他的漢名施光明。
因為他想跟別人一樣。
(關於稱呼這件事涉及到的正是高校有刀主題之一,看戲會更清楚:)

PIYU因為家境問題放棄了選手資格,姍姍特地到山上去找他。
PIYU和他的祖母在處理愛玉。愛玉背後有著原住民的辛酸故事。

男孩對於料理非常有天份,他自己以愛玉研發出新的醬料。
姍姍非常好奇地想要品嚐,PIYU卻覺得不夠完美而拒絕了她。
最後調製成功,PIYU滿足了姍姍的生日願望,親手做給她吃。

姍姍與PIYU及慶淵三人是要好的死黨,
在姍姍心中,他們是同一個gabu。

(gabu的部份也是看戲會更清楚,
這部戲處理漢人及原住民間的問題已經算是深入淺出,點到為止:)
文字不太容易解釋。


 點此處有詳細相關資料,故事大綱,還有六十秒的預告片可以看。

[music] Thom Yorke + Richard Linklater

 相信死忠樂迷早已知道Radiohead主唱Thom Yorke即將推出個人專輯The Eraser的事,好消息是這張專輯台灣也有廠商代理喲。專輯裡的一首Black Swan同時也是Richard Linklater的新片A Scanner Darkly插曲。
 
 Richard Linklater是很有趣的導演,最有名的兩部經典廢話愛情片Before Sunrise & Sunset應是許多人心中的最愛。相關資料可點閱我以前的文章(Before Sunrise & Sunset 12Waking Life)。這回的新片似乎是走類似他之前的一部大妙片waking life的類動畫路線,由Keanu Reeves及消失許久的Winona Ryder聯合主演,點此可看到更多圖片,美國雅虎也有trailer可以看。waking life這部片子實在有夠妙的,有興趣的朋友可以去找來看。我也不知去哪裡找,找到可以通知我:)

[events] MAKE SOME NOISE













 約莫十年前在某音樂雜誌社的時候,各大唱片公司總是會主動將當月所有發行的唱片都送到雜誌社去。身在媒體大概可以了解每個月有多少新發行的唱片在市場上流動。而這些還不包括非主流廠牌。單單是主流大廠的專輯發行量都超乎你的想像,更遑論夾雜在各強片中求生存的那些名不見經傳的專輯了。那個時候還沒有出現mp3這種東西,唱片市場還是相當活絡的。

 接著,生活裡有更多事情令你分心。這幾年聽音樂十之八九是翻出舊有專輯來聽,聽來聽去老是那幾張。尤其是八0年代最好聽,或許是因為摻攪了青春記憶的香氣。而近年覺得好聽的聲音,THE POSTAL SERVICE算是其中之一。一時心血來潮忽然想去查查他們的巡迴表演,結果點到他們自己官網,卻發現他們近日參與了一個相當有意義的活動,來串聯轉貼一下。

 這又是一個將音樂結合公共議題的範例(關於音樂可以如何改變世界,請大家移駕至熱門部落格聲音與憤怒做更進一步的了解)。他們以download mp3的方式做募款活動,其實和歷來以往如舉辦慈善義演活動,捐出門票或合輯收入等都相當類似。最大的差別是載體改變了。從購買CD變成download mp3(付費)。人們對於社會關懷的議題及關注是不曾改變的。詳情可點上方BANNER。官網上有各種Banner,Buttons,Skyscrapers可供串聯使用。我也會將這個活動轉寄給我身旁的朋友們。

“Music speaks the language of freedom, revolution and solidarity. Without that freedom – without music that is angry, joyful and necessary – we are nothing.” - Yoko Ono

Make Some Noise is a global venture by Amnesty International that mixes music, celebration and action to protect individuals wherever freedom, justice and equality are denied. Thanks to an extraordinary gift from Yoko Ono – the recording rights to “Imagine” and John Lennon’s entire solo songbook – we are harnessing the power of music to inspire a new generation to stand up for human rights.

As a solo artist, John Lennon’s unique talent and passionate campaign for world peace made him one of the most influential activists the world has ever seen. "Peace is no violence, no frustration, no fear," claimed Lennon – and with this lyrical mantra, he strived to promote the issues he believed in, inspiring change through music which both provoked and united communities. In a world plagued by war and poverty Lennon's message is just as relevant today as it was it was first written.

Our aim is to attract one million new supporters worldwide. We’re not here to talk about the past, tug on the heartstrings or show images of suffering. We’re here to make a positive impact on our world and collectively raise our voices to make as much noise as we can for human rights.

[diary] 夜行巴士 我們需要適合的溫度::側記Sandee617@誠品

 晚上和朋友去看陳珊妮的表演。她出新畫冊了。

 去了現場嚇了一跳。表演七點開始,六點半開始入場。我和朋友兩人很沒經驗的,硬是悠閑地逛著充滿濃厚商業偽知青氣息的偌大賣場,約莫六點四十五分才抵達六樓展演廳。

 手扶梯緩緩上昇,當我看見眼前一條人牆巨龍壯觀地出現,我不可思議地和朋友道:天啊,這些人都是要來看陳珊妮的嗎?不會吧?

 然後我看見隊伍裡的人都拿著和我們一樣的票,訝異地趕緊接上人龍。同時和朋友開起玩笑說,我都不知道陳珊妮這麼主流耶。這根本就是蔡10的簽唱會嘛。

sandee 人潮陸續入場,我心裡忽然有股不好的預感。看著沒進去過的展演廳入口處,我暗自猜想裡頭有座位嗎?朋友擔心的則是場地問題。後來進場發現大家都席地而坐,而且場地容納人數似乎有誤,現場擠到一個爆,空氣悶燥堵塞。後來外頭幾乎還有一百多人沒入場,五四三站長連忙廣播請大家挪動一下位置。我在想五百人應該是指有放置椅子的情況吧。因為席地而坐會造成眾人隨性佔地,空間控制相對會顯得困難。在外頭排隊時發現不少人都如我一樣略顯訝異,聽見不少懷疑主辦單位超賣的聲音。後來陳珊妮自己在表演過場時針對此事做了解釋。她說絕對沒有超賣,問題應該出在誠品的場地空間,不然就是今天來的胖子較多:)

 這當然是善意的解圍。不過誠品方面和五四三的交涉究竟是如何我們也無從得知,所以也無法置評。只能就一個消費者的立場,談談自己的感覺。

 我的感想是,既然選擇在誠品這樣一個以知識性,雅痞性,都會性消費階級為訴求的空間主辦,環境就該舒適一點。若要大家席地而坐就應該選擇更空曠或隨性的空間吧。由於入場情形混亂,表演也延遲開始。而大家席地而坐的下場就是視線完全被阻擋。這樣一個擁擠焦燥的空間令我的心情大打折扣。尤其坐在後方,完全看不到陳珊妮本人,前面又是幾百顆人頭層層堆疊而出的人海。這是今日最大敗筆。表演結束時混身痠麻,心靈上因為陳珊妮得到滿足,但在肉體上簡直就是一場巨大的災難。不過我心裡同時也在思索台北有這樣的展演空間嗎?陳珊妮今天的表演是結合了音樂,詩,視覺藝術等複合媒材,在空間及設備上的要求確實複雜許多。

 今天還看見楊乃文及方文山也出席這場表演。陳珊妮今天有演唱她幫楊乃文寫的應該,同時也邀請方文山為特別嘉賓,搭配他吟的三首詩做音樂及影像演出。方文山的吟讀相對於陳珊妮感性的口吻有種單純的喜感,不過陳珊妮及負責影像的伙伴們還是能很盡職的扮演音樂及影像創作的角色。而聽著聽著方文山吟讀裡的那種喜感也逐漸在音樂及影像的烘托下變得美好了。尤其最後一首,方文山選擇了李後主的虞美人(前面兩首都是他自己的新詩作品,方文山的新詩集將於近日出版)。陳珊妮選擇了老歌不了情。是現代與古典結合的絕讚淒美搭配。

票根 整體而言今天的表演挺過癮的,尤其是視覺藝術的部份,超讚。聽她唱歌,聽她說話,聽她讀自己寫的文字。

 嗯,陳珊妮變得超級瘦。這是第二個感想。是超級超級瘦。瘦的N次方。

 回家的路上,我又經過凱達格蘭大道。下午搭車經過時這裡仍然熱鬧。今日氣溫頗高,悶熱難耐,人心鼓燥。回家路上一路悶熱,直至搭上夜間巴士,車上放送的冷氣終於令我身心暫時冷靜下來。夜裡的巴士令我冷靜,令我安逸。在夜裡平靜行駛,我像是消失在空氣裡,消失在台北裡,變成一隻透明的魚,ipod裡流動著的音樂成為我小宇宙裡唯一的聲音,與這個魔幻世界唯一也是最後的關聯。

 獨自走在路上,悶熱的夜裡,路上沒有一個人,白日的喧鬧在這一秒全數落幕。這是一座被騰騰熱氣蒸發掉了的城市,是一座被火山爆發的岩漿淹沒的死城。白天喧鬧的凱達格蘭大道,到了夜裡一樣如此安靜詭謐。白畫的抗議與激情,在夜裡幻化為枕邊絮語及單純的睡眠。這個城市也需要安靜。

 我愛她的喧鬧與失智,我也愛她的瘋狂與疏離。我討厭這個城市,我也愛這個城市。我討厭自己,我也愛自己。我討厭你,我也愛你。

[diary] 黃昏光景





你是冰塊
他是風扇
而我是火

你是路燈
他是道路
而我是迷途的羊
(羊懼怕光嗎?)

擁擠的人潮匯集成黃昏光景
所有的我們都失去意義

極有意義

[note] something about music

1> 買了張懸之後,更加覺得live house對台灣音樂的發展有多重要。這些表演場所提供這些表演者舞台,也供給他們養份,磨鍊的機會,和歌迷/聽眾互動的機會。在唱片市場愈發消沈的現在,也許live house才是另一個值得發展的產業?能提供音樂人做現場表演,大家平日又在電影院,KTV之外多一個選擇,多好。mp3畢竟無法攻克live這一塊吧。

rosie thomas2> 今晚又看校園歌喉戰(沒錯我挺愛看的),今晚播出的高雄義守大學學生們真是超級可愛的。拿到冠軍的艾鈞偉唱歌很好聽,可以飆很不錯的高音,挺像第二個張雨生。歌唱活動走進校園也挺有意思,學生們的熱情真的令人想起青春年少哇。許多參賽者甚至把自己的比賽片段都傳至youtube了。

3> 網路生態逐漸改寫我們的生活及歷史。幾年前的預言都紛紛成真了。只要有實力,把你的作品上傳到網路,誰都可能被發掘成歌手。繼上回的carolin之後,最近風雲代理的rosie thomas也有myspace

[music] 令人甦醒的聲音

 有時候,要與人分享不是那麼容易,或者人都是很自私的吧。對於鍾愛的事情都有一種獨佔慾。就像很多小歌迷們聽到張懸要發片的那種心情。

 人從平凡人逐漸變公眾人物這件事,真的是很詭異。詭異之處在哪我也說不出來,大概社會系或新聞系的人可以解答?就像張懸在她的發片首唱會裡所說的一樣:不知道為什麼,變成公眾人物之後,不管你說什麼或做什麼,都會變得很矯情。

 不過在她的發片首唱表演裡,我還是能感受到她的真誠與溫暖。好奇怪,為什麼現在唱片界線上的歌手都沒有這種特質或感覺呢?是什麼改變了他們?是身份嗎?變成公眾人物之後,究竟會改變一個人的哪個部份?這個問題,我想Kurt Cobain大概能夠回答。

 在她的live house部落格上觀賞她的表演,看見她認真地推薦娃娃時,看見她談到一些在live house認真玩音樂的朋友所面對的處境時,竟然感動得哭了。還有,聽到她唱狗毛的空虛,我大概就明白她是什麼樣的一個人。還有聽見她唱八厘米天空的作品時也是。由衷希望張懸永遠是張懸,永遠都不會變。

 寫這篇短文的目的不是要吹捧她,只是為了自己的感動,及對於台灣音樂界的感動。音樂有很多種,有流行樂,有搖滾樂,有電子,民謠等各種類型,但不管哪種類型,能打到心坎裡,令人在聽的時候感動,我就覺得這是最美最棒的一件事。而聽到張懸,我忽然才發現一直以來我都在聽什麼樣的華語歌曲呢?原來我一直沒有好好善待自己?沒有聽到真正好聽的聲音。

 愈寫愈像做作的廣告文案,就此打住吧。其實所有所有的感覺,大概就像是最後李壽全老師最後說的那段話一樣:當我對華語歌壇失去信心的時候,我聽見張懸的聲音....請你們放心,張懸永遠是張懸。(大概的意思是這樣)

 最後還要鼓勵戴佩妮和蔡健雅,我非常非常非常非常非常希望妳們能舉辦日前所說的華語歌壇的莉莉絲音樂節:)

 註1:張懸官網的圖片都不能聯結,所以只好用了MTV網站的圖片。
 註2:寫這篇文暫時想不到好標題,因為不管寫什麼也都覺得很做作,所以就只好...算了。

[diary] Your love personality type...

Your love personality type
That means you are more Extroverted than Introverted, Intuitive than Sensing, Thinking than Feeling, and more Judging than Perceiving. Understanding your combination of these traits will help you understand why you get along with some people and not others. And what types of people you should seek out for fulfilling relationships. But what do these terms really mean? And how do they affect your relationships with other people? You're about to find out.

Originally, the personality dimensions you see above were derived from the work of renowned psychologist Carl Jung. He and other psychological "typing" experts made great strides in finding out the factors that cause people to interrelate the way that they do.

In the professional world, looking at people's personality types has become standard in many corporations. Such assessments help managers find out how people work best, what types of co-workers they're apt to get along with, and what tasks they might be best suited for.

Now Tickle's experts have taken this information a step further to create a personality test to help you in all aspects of your life. Below you'll find out more about the special qualities that make you who you are and learn which of the 16 personality types you match up with best in your relationships.

Your love type: Why it might be different from personality types you've gotten on other tests
Tickle understands. We're complex creatures. As a result, the personality you express in the workplace may be far different from your personality in the other aspects of your life. That's because most people's personalities are situation-dependent. So although you might be a hard-nosed strategist in the office, you might find that you're a sympathetic softie when it comes to your personal relationships.

This test is designed to help you get a better handle on your personality type in your personal life. You can discover who you are in your relationships and learn the types of people that you're liable to connect with best. If you want to gain a more accurate snapshot of your personality type when it comes to work, try taking Tickle's Classic Career Test. Then compare your results to see how you're different in the different contexts!

The personality traits that define who you are in love

Below is a chart demonstrating all of the 16 possible love personality types. Your type was determined by looking at your scores on four standard dimensions or scales: Introversion/Extraversion, Sensing/Intuition, Thinking/Feeling, and Judging/Perceiving.

None of these eight traits is better or worse than any other. They all just give clues about who you are in your relationships and whom you're likely to get along with best.

A closer look at the dimensions
The most important thing to remember about the dimensions is that just because you are an Extrovert doesn't mean you don't also have some Introvert characteristics. The fact that you are an Extravert simply means that you have more Extravert characteristics than Introvert ones. The same goes for the other dimensions. Therefore, when you take a look at your relationship personality type, know that you probably possess some tendencies of the other dimensions as well. It's just that more often than not, you have a tendency to approach the world on one side of the scale than the other — as an Extravert instead of as an Introvert for example. Below is more information on each of these dimensions and how you score on each of them.


(I)ntroversion/ (E)xtraversion: This dimension describes how you approach and interact with the world and how you typically direct your energy.




Introversion Extraversion

Most times, people simply associate introverts with being shy and extraverts with being loud. These descriptions are not entirely correct because those two qualities are only part of what determines whether someone is an introvert or an extravert. For example, typically, to an extravert, the outside world represents both excitement and opportunity. Extraverts often think and perform better in front of others. Also, because an extravert's energy is often directed outwards, extroverts like being around people most of the time. Introverts, on the other hand, usually direct their energy inwards and often need alone time to replenish their energy stores.

When it comes to communication, introverts will tend to formulate their thoughts before they speak up. Extraverts will often think and talk at the same time, saying whatever comes into their heads. This more immediate approach makes extraverts spontaneous, but it can also get them into hot water. Socially, introverts prefer more intimate settings where they have the chance to get to know fewer people on a deeper basis. Extraverts typically feel that in social situations, the more the merrier. As mentioned above — not every introvert or extravert will display every trait tied to this dimension. In fact, people are apt to display a mix of traits.


I(N)tuition/ (S)ensing: This dimension demonstrates how people tend to process information.




Intuition Sensing

What kinds of information do you naturally notice? That's the main question this scale answers. Sensors tend to focus on concrete information. Intuitives tend to focus on possibilities. By using their five senses to gather data, sensors trust what can be seen, heard, touched, tasted, or felt. By staying attuned to their five senses, sensors are also apt to focus on the present and to have great attention to detail. If you are looking for accurate information, ask a sensor.

Intuitives, on the other hand, are more imaginative types who tend to look for deeper, abstract meanings in the world around them. They do this by inferring things from the data that's in front of them. For example, when presented with information, intuitives usually enjoy pondering over implications of those facts and anticipating future consequences. Intuitives aren't often interested in details and tend to see the big picture of a situation faster than sensors.


(F)eeling/ (T)hinking: This dimension demonstrates how you make decisions.




Feeling Thinking

The way each one of us makes decisions is influenced by whether we are primarily thinkers or feelers. Thinkers value analytical thinking and tend to be methodical and logical when evaluating their options. Thinkers pride themselves on being objective, rather than letting their subjective feelings or opinions enter into their decisions. Feelers often see thinkers as being somewhat cold. Feelers have a very different decision making process. Theirs takes into account how others will be affected alongside of the objective facts. By putting people's individual situations in the forefronts of their minds, feelers are more likely to make exceptions to rules than thinkers are. Feelers are highly empathic, and sometimes this bent can make them seem too emotional to thinkers.


(P)erceiving/ (J)udging: The last dimension describes whether you prefer closure or openness.




Perceiving Judging

The final dimension describes whether you prefer closure or openness in your life's situations. For instance, because of their high need for control, judgers like structure and order in the world around them. Judgers are typically organized people who focus on goals and accomplish what they set out to do.

On the other end of the spectrum are perceivers who usually prefer to experience the world spontaneously. Oftentimes a perceiver can't tell you their schedule from one day to the next because they don't know what's going to happen. Perceivers usually like keeping their options open and can pride themselves on adapting to whatever situation they confront. Judgers are most excited when they have finished a project. Perceivers tend to be most excited when a new endeavor begins.

Now that you know more about each of the dimensions, we can give you more information about your specific four-letter personality type. This type was derived from your answers on the Love Personality test.

Your love type
About 3-5% of the U.S. population possesses the combination of traits that make up this personality type.

Being an ENTJ means that you've got a bit of a rebellious streak in you. So rather than being the kind who follows, you'll usually choose to lead the pack. You also appear to love a challenge more than most others do. So if somebody wants something done, all they have to do is tell you that it's impossible. You're apt to show them then and there how you can make it happen. You're not one to be easily discouraged in any aspect of your life. So if someone catches your eye, you'll likely find a way to get to know them come hell or high water. You're not just a dreamer. You're a doer.

In relationships, you usually have a clear sense of where you want things to lead. You also know how to take charge of a situation to help things go your way. You can exude a personal strength and confidence that really wins people over. Your friendly, outgoing nature also makes most people quite happy to follow your lead. Perhaps they're empowered or inspired by your self-esteem and can-do thinking.

Possessing a generous spirit allows you to be happy for others' successes as well as your own. You also know how to play coach if someone is lagging behind. These traits can make you a very supportive partner. Because of your usual drive to succeed, you can put a lot of responsibility and pressure on yourself. Finding friends or a romantic partner who can help you stop and smell the roses will be an important part of maintaining some dimension and perspective in your life.

What makes you a good partner and friend?

You believe in honest communication
You know how to be sensitive to other people's feelings
You take commitments seriously
You're one who is ambitious and goal-oriented

So now that you know about your personality and the many special qualities that you possess, it's time to learn which other types you're most compatible with in life and love. You'll also find out why those types are more suited for you than the others. Ready to find out who you connect with best?

Your most compatible types
Because you're an Intuitive Thinker (NT), you can be both creative and intellectual. NTs like you are usually very in touch with your rational side. Consequently, you're apt to appreciate those who are logical and know how to put their analytical skills to work. As a result, your most compatible types are people who are Sensing Thinkers (ST). STs are great for you for a couple of reasons. For one, they're usually on par with you intellectually. They also can be good at keeping your big ideas reined in. STs are known for being sensible and for having their feet firmly on the ground. This worldly intelligence can be very attractive to you. There are four NT/ST matches for you: ESTJ, ISTJ, ESTP, ISTP.

How to best get along with Sensing Thinkers
One of a Sensing Thinker's main strengths lies in their ability to think analytically and logically. As a result, they may sometimes have difficulty thinking outside of the box like you can. Don't be surprised if you propose something new and are met with resistance. "New" can be challenging to an ST. Rather than pushing for an immediate agreement, give them time to warm up to your idea. By moving one step at a time and not simply discarding your plans when you hear the word, "No," you're likely to find some comfortable middle ground for both of you. It can help you to realize that your Sensing Thinker needs to feel a certain level of control most times, particularly when they are in unfamiliar or unpredictable situations.




Introverts vs. extraverts: Getting along

In addition to knowing that you get along best with STs, it's important to understand how your social style and activity preferences will impact your relationships. That's where the Introversion/Extraversion dimension comes in. Check out how you're likely to get along with those who are similar to and different than you in this respect.

Extraverts and extraverts
When you're paired with another Extravert (E), life can be full of action and excitement. That's because both of you can be skilled socializers who usually enjoy meeting new people. Hanging out with a variety of friends and acquaintances probably seems quite natural to you both. So if you and your Extravert partner have the chance to curl up at home for a night or head out to a crowded party, the two of you probably race for the door. Social activities — particularly those that make you the center of attention — are natural places to find Extraverts like you. So long as the company is good, your type would almost always prefer to do an activity with others rather than going solo. It keeps your energy up and your relationship fresh.

Extraverts with introverts
You are an Extravert (E) . So when it comes time to relax and enjoy yourself and you are with an Introvert (I), it's not surprising that you'd both propose different activities. Perhaps you want to get together a group of friends to go out dancing and your extravert mate (E) would rather just make a quiet dinner together and pop in a video. Such is the nature of an I/E relationship. Keep in mind that having different preferences is not a bad thing. In fact, your different activity levels can keep life interesting for both of you and help you to grow as people. Also, as an Extravert, there are likely to be times when you really appreciate having someone to spend some down time with. The most important thing for an I/E mix to be successful is to maintain flexibility and appreciation toward one another's differences. By both making efforts to meet each other's needs, you can become a happy and well-balanced team.

Can you change types?

Although no one type is better than another, you may sometimes wish you were different from the type that you are. Remember that if you scored as an introvert, for example, this doesn't mean that you never behave as an extravert. Almost everyone can recall times when they've behaved contrary to type. It's just a question of where your behavior falls on the scale. Generally, it's not realistic to expect your personality to undergo a radical change from one extreme to the other. However, it usually is possible for someone to move closer to the middle of the spectrum. So if someone who is very introverted wanted to become more of an Extrovert, they could make conscious efforts to alter the balance of these characteristics.

Perhaps you've wanted to create more meaningful interactions with people, feeling the usual banter isn't enough. The next time you show up to a party, don't immediately flit from one person to another or head toward the center of the crowd. Instead, try to focus on having a one-on-one conversation with someone new. That way you're getting the chance to know someone on a deeper basis, yet are still being social and meeting new people. If you steer clear of turning the spotlight onto yourself and really listen to the person you're talking with, you're almost certain to learn some interesting about them.

[music] Fuji Rock and Summer Sonic in Tokyo

 我發現愛音樂的人真的永遠年輕也永保熱情。竟然有一群音樂狂熱份子為了音樂祭出團,而且還找了一批贊助商,實在太妙了!我想音樂圈裡應該很多人都去過了,這回的音樂祭不曉得是否也是一樣這麼熱。

 之前在新聞媒體看到他們的消息時我並未多加留意,一方面是沒有關心音樂祭表演名單,二是他們的價錢似乎高得離譜(六萬九千塊)。但剛剛去他們站上一看竟然不是,大概是我眼花了。不過這價位若是自己搞陽春一點應該還可以再低。但跟他們去的好處是他們已一手把交通巴士及門票全部搞定,而且還特別聲明住的是四星級飯店哦。

 站上並把兩大音樂祭的名單列出部份供大家參考,哦麥尷,Fuji Rock有RED HOT CHILI PEPPER、FRANZ FERDINAND、BROKEN SOCIAL SCENE、YEAH YEAH YEAHS,全都是現今獨立樂界炙手可熱的樂團。而Summer Sonic相形之下找的就比較資深,但也都是經典團如METALLICA、LINKIN PARK、MASSIVE ATTACK、THE FLAMING LIPS等。

 他們真的很熱血,連YOU TUBE上往年的精彩片段都貼上去了。網站做了非常詳細的聯結,有興趣者不妨前往一探究竟。我想熱血的搖滾份子應該早已留意音樂祭的訊息,不過還是貼出來報馬一下。

[diary] 招數

 每當看著你的時候我便不想說話,感覺時間像是一種奶油一樣慢慢消解,以一種甜蜜的速度。不僅僅不想說話,腦子裡也沒有任何想法,整個人空空的,只想這樣一直看著你到夕陽落下。

 你生氣的時候我也生氣,而且兩個人玩著倔強的絕不認輸的遊戲。時空跟著變得非常安靜,彷彿連空氣裡的灰塵也有了意義。那些我們一起牽手或是各自分頭去買來的書或CD,終於在此刻逃脫了幫助我們偽裝成文藝知青的命運,得以在幼稚的冷戰空檔中得以再度問世。
 
 然後我們繼續冷戰,以一種年份不詳歷史不可考的戀人姿態。刻意把音響扭得極大聲,刻意在走路時把拖鞋踩得趴躂趴躂響,刻意在燒開水時持續沸點直到燒乾那一刻,刻意假裝我們都很生氣,其實心裡都在傷心。

 然後夜晚來臨。狹小的玄關解救了我們。我和你在玄關無可避免地相互擦撞,閃爍的火花隨即融化我們之間那道透明而脆弱的牆。我們打勾勾約定懲罰的遊戲,同時計劃著夜裡相互取暖時再來策劃新招數。

[music] 熱帶潮聲與冰山的雨

熱帶潮聲與冰山的雨
Caroline | Murmurs | 小白兔橘子


 專輯《Murmurs》裡有一首「Drove Me to the Wall」足以讓你領教這個輕靈迷幻正妹的魅力。這是一段什麼樣失速的感情?Caroline以她敏感而充滿想像空間的細嫩娃娃聲告訴你這個故事。專輯收錄共十首歌曲,首首旋律流暢迷人,她以充滿個性的獨特嗓音緩緩唱來,忽而淘氣似憂愁小女孩,忽而性感敏銳似夢遊者,實在具有殺死人的吸引力。

 最傳奇的是她的發片歷程。現在人人玩部落格,玩出自己魅力才是真行家。Caroline在myspace發表她的作品,進而引來唱片公司注意。機運重要實力更重要,支支冰靈迷幻的曲子及囈語呢喃皆出自小妮子之筆。她的歌聲裡彷彿帶著出生地的熱帶島嶼浪潮之聲,卻又飄逸出一股冰涼透徹的氣息。聆聽她的音樂好似走進一場迷濛細雨舖陳出的雨幕,前方有一閃一滅的燈火吸引你前進。她的曲風其實具有流行音樂特質,但是迷離飄渺的編曲及極具辨識性的女聲塑造出一種烙印於心的記憶。記不得你卻記得你的單車,這是多情亦絕情的「Bicycle」。又愛又怕受傷害的瘋狂告白隱埋在「Pink & Black」裡。where's my love, give me a clue,聆聽「Where's My Love」你會明白女孩們的等愛心情。(本文刊載於ELVIS六月號)

[diary] 手工製造


 時代愈來愈進步,人類也愈來愈崇尚自然。

 不知從何時開始,日本的手工藝品風開始刮進台灣。現在回想起來,我在前年曾把自己去新加坡玩時用lomo拍的相片,挑了幾張沖洗出來,然後搭配上鮮艷的卡紙,再繫以紅磚色棉線,製成卡片分送一些好友,這也是一種DIY精神吧。

 以前出門身上總帶著筆記本,很大那種。現在也帶,但愈帶愈小。小寫起來不過癮,於是通常是拿白紙抓了就亂寫,想找時間一一掃瞄又懶。 

 寫在紙上就是一種活生生的記錄。連立可白都懶得用。而電腦,就少了這種塗改的樂趣。

[poem] 你想起了誰

當滂沱的大雨落下
閃電般哀愁劃過你心底
你想起了誰

當混噬浪花拍岸
潮汐般絲線糾住你心
你想起了誰

當垃圾開始分類
廚餘 可回收與不可回收
你想起了誰

當樂器層層堆疊
似甜蜜又苦澀音牆勒住你咽喉
你想起了誰

當遠處
迷霧中
似有燈火
一明 一暗 閃爍
該前進 還是 後退
該奔跑 還是 慢走

想起了誰
還是
忘記了誰

是左手 還是 右手
是左邊 還是 右邊
是鴿派 還是 鷹派

是肌肉 還是 血液
該到底 還是 皮下
要一點點 還是 很重

要軟 還是 硬
要乾一點 還是濕一點
要彩虹 還是 玫瑰

在針筒的刻度之間
靈魂流竄似悸動你血液

想起了誰

[diary] 觀眾聽不出來他在反這個事情,就不唱這首歌了。

 本來是要持續關注live house問題的後續發展,沒想到在大聲誌看到這期舊文,覺得超好笑又超有意思,覺得很值得推薦給大家。這篇訪談裡提到幾個挺尖銳,犬儒,當然也幽默的部份。

 然後就是live house公聽會後的後續發展。起因還是因為在iron那邊看見他轉貼了文章,於是想也可以來整理一下聯結,否則這件事到最後仍可能不了了之。台灣的新聞亂象早已不足為奇,但近日實在可謂顛峰。新聞媒體佔據我們生活的比例過重,再加上媒體的反智傾向,這樣真的很不好。當然該追的新聞該追,但是該關注的議題也要關注。

 噢,還好還有部落格。(但部落格何時會淪陷呢?)
