真心祝福2016年以及今后的每一天,大家都会更好!

明天会更好

00:00/00:00

我想了半个多小时关于有创意的祝福,可是不论如何发现好像也就是加点修辞,掺些古文,插点图片,了不起修张图做个动画,也谈不上什么信达雅、高大上。但这些时间里我静下心来,才意识到如果一味如此,反倒是和本意背道而驰了。又过去一年,真的是看到了很多故事,体验了很多人生,想一想最重要的,还是健康的身体,积极向上的态度,与身边的家人和朋友。所以,是真心地祝福您在2016年,以及未来的每一天,都能够健康,快乐,并且感到幸福。也感谢这么多年来,所有给过我希望和帮助的同辈和长者们。谢谢!愿今后能保持长久的联系,直到永久。

2016 三周年特辑 – 格莱美博物馆

热烈欢庆本博3周年整纪念日!热烈庆祝2016年的到来!

特辑的2015年年底LA格莱美博物馆游记!

当天正好是The Supremes的主题活动,有专门的展厅,不过最值得欣赏的绝对是那几套衣服,特别有年代感。之后还有简单音乐史的历程展示(古典和Jazz放一块开始),Jimi的吉他,虫子的西塔琴,Sam Cooke的衣服,Taylor的信,Woody的真迹,还有X-japan和他的水晶KAWAYI昂钢琴乱入等等.. 最后整个一层都是Frank Sinatra的天下。其中有一间专门讲解播放器发展史的屋子非常爽,从最古老的音效展示到现在的5.1环绕,以及槽点满满的MP3设备,呆了很久,感想是如果要在家搞5.1一套,至少这隔音效果是要绝佳的。

还发了几张周边景色(门口的星光大道)以及两张好莱坞星光大道(Walk of Fame)音乐相关的图片。

500 Miles (Five Hundred Miles)

500 miles

00:00/00:00

Hedy West的folk传世经典,传承者都是神话级别的或是会成为传奇的人物 [注:下文大部分链接源自youtube视频],民谣传奇Peter, Paul and Mary(500 Miles – Peter, Paul and Mary),为什么没有和Dylan在一起的Joan Baez(500 Miles – Joan Baez) ,猫王(500 Miles – Elvis Presley),松隆子(500マイル – Takako Matsu),贾老板(500 Miles – Justin Timberlake) ,哥特系的Nick Cave(500 miles away from home – Nick Cave)等等.

最近听到的版本是从同学手机上播放的贾老板版本(feat. Carey Mulligan and Stark Sands)(J.T.的录音更透彻,感染力也相对更强,而老boss们的版本就是更需要投入地去听),当时正驾驶着一辆亮着胎压预警器的rental car上驰骋于加州的高速公路,一曲亢奋的不看歌词一句都听不懂的California Hotel (Live)结束,响起Five Hundred Miles的前奏,顿时无言,再响起歌唱,无尽感动。说是歌词部分highly based on 迪伦的『I Was Young When I Left Home』(推荐Marcus Mumford的版本,毕竟迪伦自己唱的比较难接受.. 而且这里面关系特别有意思,贾老板的版本(Inside Llewyn Davis & 电影配乐)找了Carey Mulligan (盖茨比女主)来feat,而她又嫁给了Marcus Mumford,然后M.M.又唱了贾老板唱的这首歌的原版的歌词的灵感来源的歌的翻唱..[可见500 miles的地位有多深!以及娱乐圈的关系有多复杂!])。歌词的确相似度极高,包括远离home的主题,某些对称,重复等等,并没有调查过发行年月,好像年份是相同的,不要在意这些细节。『I was young when I left home』『To my home, Lord, to my home』『You’ll hear that whistle blow hundred miles』『Hundred miles, honey baby, Lord, Lord, Lord』『An’ you’ll hear that whistle blow hundred mile』

遇到这种翻唱无数的,按照惯例放上虾米里搜到的现成精选集:http://www.xiami.com/collect/14718791

相当相当简单的歌词,不仅是利于传唱,更是有助于我们学习 😀 即使现在大家都是坐坐飞机2个小时不到就开完这500英里,然而越是有便捷的科技出现,我们越是不能被繁华和纷杂给扰乱了记住这永恒的home. 家是动力的来源,是勇往直前的倚靠和支柱。往大的看,这可以是我们的家乡,我们的国家,我们的星球.. 你可以听到这火车的汽笛声,飘向了100英里外,它还在继续,直到200英里,直到500英里,直到我们不能轻易地踏上归途,直到我们衣衫褴褛且心力憔悴,直到我们站在路边,遥望无尽的天际线并暗中决定要在这里建立新的家。即便如此,那一个永恒的home,我们也会永远记在心里。而歌曲原本想要表达的似是和三顾茅庐而不入有相符的意思,如果仅仅是儿童时期阅读这些故事,所能体会到的文字所蕴含的情感是极其有限的,而如今用音乐承载,的确是有更深的感触了。

最后,祝圣诞快乐!


If you miss the train I’m on, you will know that I am gone
You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles
A Hundred miles, a hundred miles, a hundred miles, a hundred miles
You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles

Lord I’m one, Lord I’m two, Lord I’m three, Lord I’m four
Lord I’m 500 miles away from home
away from home,away from home,away from home,away from home [500 miles – P.P.M版本]
Lord I’m 500 miles away from home

Not a shirt on my back, not a penny to my name
Lord I can’t go a-home this a-way [a- –> ole]
This a-away, this a-way, this a-way, this a-way
Lord I can’t go a-home this a-way

If you miss the train I’m on, you will know that I am gone
You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles

負けないで・揺れる想い~坂井泉水 追悼オルゴール集

火影那篇以后填坑了。因为今天听到羽田裕美一张关于ZARD的专辑(钢琴)时突然想看看自己以前是怎么写的,然而并没有在博客里搜索到,为何会如此!

照例先占坑,因为版权问题虾米也没有泉水的歌,可以去百度或者网易云音乐搜索下。具体的歌单以后填坑的时候献上,等我先全部过一遍再说。

这里先放上虾米唯一有的music box版本的音乐集。

Hello – Adele

Hello-Adele

00:00/00:00

阿呆姐新专首单《Hello》, “Hello, How are you”

原生美音强力击穿韩梅梅Lei总等(I’m sorry, for everything that I’ve done)(There’s such a difference between us. And a million miles),时隔三年归来 一举成为英语教学典范。

此曲已然是通杀了国内外各大新闻/音乐/社交网站的首页,不过这只是穿榜年的开幕。副歌够亮,不过这情伤主题好像比较没劲,传言说是对前男友『嘲讽』,可惜艺术界的东西并不知道真假,视作真情实感去听,就觉得那句『a million miles』组合着『I’m sorry, for breaking your heart』带着整首音乐变得凶残可怖起来,不过呢,够爽快。


[Verse 1]
Hello, it’s me
I was wondering if after all these years
You’d like to meet, to go over everything
They say that time’s supposed to heal ya
But I ain’t done much healing
Hello, can you hear me?
I’m in California dreaming about who we used to be
When we were younger and free
I’ve forgotten how it felt before the world fell at our feet
There’s such a difference between us
And a million miles

[Chorus]
Hello from the other side
I must’ve called a thousand times to tell you
I’m sorry, for everything that I’ve done
But when I call you never seem to be home
Hello from the outside
At least I can say that I’ve tried to tell you
I’m sorry, for breaking your heart
But it don’t matter, it clearly doesn’t tear you apart anymore

[Verse 2]
Hello, how are you?
It’s so typical of me to talk about myself
I’m sorry, I hope that you’re well
Did you ever make it out of that town
Where nothing ever happened?
It’s no secret
That the both of us are running out of time

[Chorus]
Hello from the other side
I must’ve called a thousand times to tell you
I’m sorry, for everything that I’ve done
But when I call you never seem to be home
Hello from the outside
At least I can say that I’ve tried to tell you
I’m sorry, for breaking your heart
But it don’t matter, it clearly doesn’t tear you apart anymore

[Bridge]
Ooooohh, anymore
Ooooohh, anymore
Ooooohh, anymore
Anymore

[Chorus]
Hello from the other side
I must’ve called a thousand times to tell you
I’m sorry, for everything that I’ve done
But when I call you never seem to be home
Hello from the outside
At least I can say that I’ve tried to tell you
I’m sorry, for breaking your heart
But it don’t matter, it clearly doesn’t tear you apart anymore
