最近被幾首歌轟到不行~
  
只要一開收音機,之前聽到的是張菲的歌,現在聽到的就是這幾條:James Blunt You are beautiful;陶子的走路去紐約…
 
總是有個念頭:James Blunt 的歌好像之前在巴黎戀人裡聽到過...可是應該不是。戲裡配樂的那條You are beautiful應該是老歌才對… Anyway~ 基於好奇,去看了一下這位在英國有上尉詩人之稱的James Blunt的大作… 結果本來以為是情歌的,歌詞內容卻超出我想像:
 
My life is brilliant. My life is pure. I saw an angel.
Of that I’m sure. She smiled at me on the subway.
She was with another man.
But I won’t lose no sleep on that, ‘Cause I’ve got a plan.
You’re beautiful. You’re beautiful. You’re beautiful, it’s true.
 I saw your face in a crowded place, And I don’t know what to do,
‘Cause I’ll never be with you. Yeah, she caught my eye, As we walked on by.
 She could see from my face that I was, Fucking high,
And I don’t think that I’ll see her again, But we shared a moment that will last till the end.
You’re beautiful. You’re beautiful. You’re beautiful, it’s true.
I saw your face in a crowded place, And I don’t know what to do,
‘Cause I’ll never be with you. You’re beautiful. You’re beautiful. You’re beautiful, it’s true.
There must be an angel with a smile on her face,
When she thought up that I should be with you.
But it’s time to face the truth, I will never be with you.
 
大概是因為他軍人背景的關係…所以他寫的歌,首首都帶有些宿命色彩,用類似六0年代敘事民謠的形式來寫出他的所見所聞。
其實歌還很好聽的…聽起來還是蠻舒服的…
