☆ 刺刺蝟的進化論 ☆

這是我開始喜歡小范的那張專輯裡頭的第二主打歌。雖然這支MV中的他帥到爆表，但由於整首歌的F.I.R指數也爆表，所以我並沒有很喜歡。一直到去年有人說，他在海角七號以前唯一聽過的小范的歌，是某個電玩遊戲的主題曲，我回家找，才知道是這首

昨晚八九點走在市民大道回家 (途中卻巧遇孫姐結果被抓去喝酒...) 的路上，突然想起這首歌。

我輕輕的哼著這歌，卻又好似聽見了歲月如逝水潺潺，回憶經過的流聲。

2006. 5 | 范逸臣【不說出的溫柔】

In August '02, I was sitting in an air-conditioned studio, watching my boyfriend and his band struggle with this melody for over 20 minutes.

In February '09, this song came back to me in a MSN dialogue that got me through another night of OT.

Nowadays, it is one of the most-played songs on my MP3 as I count down the days to the embarkment of a new stage in my life--a stage that had been on idle mode for quite a while, until you came and jolted it into motion.

I was sitting at the sandwich bar where our friend was on her final shift, dining on a nicely tossed Greek salad, when this song came blasting out of the stereo (plugged to the iPod that belonged to one of the boys who worked there). I thought of you, and something you wrote me not long ago. You might like to refer to that as "meaninglessness", but I've worn it on my heart since.

"Discipline does not 'hang on the mouth'... sacrifices have to be made." 

Both Sides Now
She insists that only music moves her, but A-MEI is a Taiwanese voice reverberating in China

All A-Mei wants to do is sing, sweetheart, use that smoke 'n' sugar voice of hers to deliver a tune. The Taiwanese pop star doesn't much care about lyrics, just the mood-ring colors her music conjures up. Today, sitting in a candle-filled studio in Taipei where she's recording her next album, A-Mei is straining for a color, and she has the precise shade in mind. The background music is low funk, and A-Mei hums her way up the spectrum, eyes closed, past turquoise, sapphire and lapis lazuli. No words, just a husky voice scatting along until it settles into the perfect note—a sultry, soulful shade you would see at midnight.

"Did I make you feel blue, baby?" A-Mei opens her round eyes and fixes them on her guitarist. "Because I want you to feel like you've been swallowed up by blueness." The guitarist assures A-Mei that he does indeed feel that particular shade, not least because he's been caught in the A-Mei vortex—a sexy, impish gaze that leaves men feeling, well, a little blushed. "Mission accomplished," she says, leaning forward to blow out a candle. "Tomorrow I want to sing red, the color of a cut when it first bleeds. And after that, green, like wet grass."

But music is not just an abstraction in A-Mei's world: it's one of the great uniters of China and the little renegade island it half despises and very much wants to absorb—A-Mei's native Taiwan. When a Taiwanese singer evolves into a pop star, his or her main audience is across the strait in megalopolises and villages throughout the vast mainland. Fame and popularity have proved that to A-Mei. What the 29-year-old singer has also learned is that what unites can divide, that her songs can acquire shades of meaning she never intends, that a mere song can hurt, alienate, maybe cause a war when, as W.H. Auden wrote, " ... each ear/ Is listening to its hearing, so none hear." "I just want to sing," says A-Mei. "But everyone keeps connecting my music to the future of Taiwan and China." And that's how it's going to be: music joins the sundered parts of Greater China. Someone—in this case A-Mei—has to sing the songs.

A-Mei was born in the rugged mountains of eastern Taiwan, as a tribal princess of the Puyuma clan of aborigines. Making up just 2% of the island's population, Taiwan's aborigines have been reduced to kitschy tribal song and dance at ethnic theme parks. City folk disparage them as drunks and hookers—the disenfranchised underbelly of Taiwan. But historically, the Puyuma have always used song to communicate their deepest feelings, and A-Mei sang the loudest of all, quickly rising from small-time ethnic performer to pop-chart diva for the entire Chinese-speaking world. Proud of her native roots, A-Mei incorporated tribal rhythms into some of her pop songs, like Sister, which celebrates the matriarchal aboriginal society.

昨天和蔡阿姨去The Wall聽法國文化協會主辦的「法蘭西˙浪漫˙新香頌之夜」

Coralie Clement & Berry--兩個據說在台灣小有名氣但我還真的沒聽說過的法國女歌手，

一個是氣音給你從頭吹到尾（容易令人誤會的說法但也是事實 XD），一個是法國版的Norah Jones

不過到後來我和蔡阿姨聽吉他手飆吉他的時間都比聽歌手唱歌還多 XD

(私以為門票之所以會訂那個高的原價八成是因為吉他手的關係因為他們真的很強...)

然而負責暖場的娃娃的這首「買你」真是太可愛了，聽到心裡的烏雲會一掃而空的一首歌

「把你的不快樂賣給我 好不好?」

2009. 1 | 陳綺貞【太陽】

寫一首歌讓你帶回去　在我關上車門以後揮一揮手
這歌裡不想太多事情的意義　也沒有欲求成功的目的 

只希望在穿梭的道路 閃躲之際
有一條簡單的旋律指引你專心　但並不企圖征服你  

演唱會演唱會!!!!

2008. 7 | 【海角七號 電影原聲帶】

如果海會說話   如果風愛上沙

如果   有些想念遺忘在某個長假

1999. 9 | 陶晶瑩【我變了】

以為年紀大了一點 臉皮就可以厚一些
遇到喜歡的你時 想不到仍然逃得遠遠

你好像對我笑了兩次 又偷偷看了我幾眼
我還是只能像個又酷又傲的淑女 假裝沒看見

就跟沒幾個女人會覺得陳冠希不帥是一樣的道理

沒幾個人(不論男女)會說Robbie Williams不性感 

Me no bubbletious
Me smoke heavy tar
Me be groovin' slowly where you are
Notify your next of kin
'Cause you're never coming back
I've been dropping beats since Back in Black

I don't wanna talk
About the things we've gone through
Though it's hurting me
Now it's history
I've played all my cards
And that's what you've done too
Nothing more to say

地點是城市某個角落　時間在午夜時刻
無聊的人常在這裡出沒　交換一種寂寞

我靜靜坐在你的身後　你似乎只想沈默
我猜我們的愛情已到盡頭　無話可說
比爭吵更折磨　不如就分手

放我一個人生活　請你雙手不要再緊握

梁靜茹的歌，幾乎都是在KTV裡學會的。

高中時，開始與三五好友在段考後的下午去錢櫃唱歌，
而那時候總是佔據著國語排行榜前三名的歌曲，
就是前奏好長好長，長到大家都不耐煩想切歌換下一首的「勇氣」。

那時候，同年紀的女生都喜歡點梁靜茹的歌來唱。

這次的超級星光大道終於有人挑戰這首很難唱得好聽的歌了
但因為這位黃姓參賽者以獨樹一格的"男人女聲"著稱  所以有被感動到  
合聲雖然好像有時候沒合到但是瑕不掩瑜了我覺得
好久不見的Shino也好可愛  希望她已走出酒駕肇事的陰霾
很期待她下禮拜和Soler合辦的演唱會!!
(雖然地點是我不喜歡的台北國際會議中心.... 話說台北有哪個地方是我認為適合辦演唱會的 XD)

"心動"這首歌對我有很特殊的意義

How come you never know what you got til it's gone
為何人總是等到失去了才會明白曾擁有的是多麼珍貴
Too bad coz I never felt so good with anyone
太可惜了  因為我從沒和別人如此契合過
How fooled was I into thinking I was gonna be alright, okay, fine
我怎會如此愚笨  還以為自己還能一如往常 沒事 好好的過

So everyday I try a little harder to forget her
每天每天我都會更加努力嚐試去忘了她
Lying here and convince myself that tomorrow will be better
