Me

你常說「害怕什麼?期待什麼?我們一起分享!」
我好像想不出適當的話回答...
There's so much I want to express in『Me』...

From Paula Cole 《This Fire 》1996
也許很多人不認識Paula,不過很多人一定聽過她唱的『I don't wanna wait』
我很喜歡Paula的聲音,
這是專輯裡我很喜歡的歌...

(由於youtube已經將影片移除 就直接聽吧 自己按播放鍵囉...)

I am not the person who is singing 
I am the silent one inside 
I am not the one who laughs at people's jokes I just pacify their egos 
I am not my house, my car, my songs 
They are only just stops along my way 
I am like the winter 
I'm a dark cold female 
With a golden ring of wisdom in my cave 
And it is me who is my enemy 
Me who beats me up 
Me who makes the monsters 
Me who strips my confidence 
I am carrying my voice
I am carrying my heart
I am carrying my rhythm 
I am carrying my prayers
But you can't kill my spirit
It's soaring and it's strong
Like a mountain
I'll go on and on
But when my wings are folded 
The brightly colored moth
Blends into the dirt into the ground
And it's me who's too weak
And it's me who's too shy 
To ask for the thing i love
And it's me who's too weak
And it's me who's too shy 
To ask for the thing i love
That I love
I am walking on the bridge
I am over the water
And I'm scared as hell
But I know there's something better
Yes I know there's something 
Yes I know, i know, yes i know
That I love . But it's me . And it's me . But it's me.

Come What May

Moulin Rouge
my favorite movie ...
故事很簡單,場景很華麗,很多我們熟悉的歌曲...
簡單的故事,總是特別動人...
看見很不一樣的Nicole。當然,還是很美麗!
也聽見很棒的Nicole 還有 Ewan

The greatest thing you'll ever learn , is just to love and be loved in return .


Never knew I could feel like this
Like I've never seen the sky before
I want to vanish inside your kiss
Every day I'm loving you more and more
Listen to my heart, can you hear it sings
Telling me to give you everything
Seasons may change, winter to spring
But I love you until the end of time

Come what may
Come what may
I will love you until my dying day

Suddenly the world seems such a perfect place
Suddenly it moves with such a perfect grace
Suddenly my life doesn't seem such a waste
It all revolves around you
And there's no mountain too high
No river too wide
Sing out this song I'll be there by your side
Storm clouds may gather
And stars may collide
But I love you until the end of time

Come what may
Come what may
I will love you until my dying day

Oh, come what may, come what may
I will love you, I will love you
Suddenly the world seems such a perfect place

Come what may
Come what may
I will love you until my dying day

Single Ladies...

Beyoncé 和Justin Timberlake 在節目上的完整版
看很多次還是很好笑啊~

The Sound Within

(pic by Bob Rafto)

多久沒想想自己想要的是什麼?
現在過的是自己期望的生活?
縱使現實有多殘酷、無奈,
有勇敢追過自己的渴望?
是什麼讓自己膽怯?
忙碌、無趣、枯燥、習慣...讓自己不再想起?
其實是害怕想起?

安靜自己一個晚上,
Listen to the sound within ...

One Of The Boys



23歲的Katy 總把自己打扮的像個芭比;
不過我覺得Katy 的聲音跟她的外表有極大的反差!
外表甜美,不過Katy的聲音很有磁性,渾厚、略帶沙啞。
這是一張很有趣、很棒的專輯!
《Hot N Cold》就是其中一首很有趣的歌!
不過我實在不懂,主打歌《I Kissed A Girl》中文為什們翻成「親了一個拉拉」??

I Am… Sasha Fierce



Dream Girls 裡的 Beyoncé 耀眼的讓人激賞
2007年的The Beyoncé Experience,

Beyoncé 整場演出眼睛的目光都離不開她啊!

親眼見到更讓我驚為天人!!


抒情的《 I Am...》

動感的《 Sasha Fierce 》

Bravo!!


看看動感的 Single Ladies 



去瘋?去夢?

沈睡的,醒了。
決定去瘋了!
原來默默守護的約定,
渴望成為堅定的誓言!
只是,似乎醒的太快了...
我有些暈眩
你有些怯步

也許原來沈睡的,比較適合在夢中擁抱...
也許原來的約定,比較適合在心中完美...

The Rose

Some say love, it is a river 
that drowns the tender reed 
Some say love, it is a razor 
that leaves your soul to bleed 
Some say love, it is a hunger 
an endless aching need 
I say love it is a flower 
And you, it's only seed 

It's the heart afraid of breaking 
that never learns to dance 
It's the dream afraid of waking 
that never takes the chance 
It's the one who won't be taken 
who can not seem to give 
And the soul afraid of dying 
that never learns to live 

When the night has been too lonely 
And the road has been too long 
And you think that love is only for the lucky and the strong 
Just remember in the winter 
Far beneath the bitter snows lies the seed 
That with the sun's love in the spring becomes the rose
(~from Bette Midler 1979)

這首歌,很美、很溫暖
所以很多人唱過
Bette 唱的很深情,很令人著迷
週末夜晚,伴著鋼琴聲,Sandy的聲音很清澈、很陶醉

DT 18-200mm

手癢...還是忍不住給他敗下去...
雖然也不是什麼高級鏡頭,還是忍不住給他拍張照...
加了遮光罩......照遠的時候...鏡頭伸超長的....好害羞喔...連照片都不號意思放!(神經病!)

偷拍對街阿姨的陽台...

Adventure

(a stone in every footstep by Rupert White 2004 )

當那些熟悉開始漸漸乏味,
開始從那些枝微末節像瘟疫般蔓延...

遲緩的心跳,是否因為索然的一切而疲憊

我似乎需要一場全新的冒險,
一副讓心跳重新啟動的鑰匙...

呼嘯過耳際的會是掛上愉悅的音符
攬入眼簾的會是塗滿幸福的畫布
然後,我會聽見調音師精準修復的悅耳心跳...

我去找你好了!懁!

Sunrises

詞/曲:順子 Shunza
Sun sets , my eyes drop.
Your hand slips away from mine.
Car keys , the motor runs.
And just like that you are gone...

Sunrises , I'm in bed. Your pillow next to me...
Breakfast is one bitter cup of coffee 
with no plans for the day...
(with no plans ahead...)

Empty , I lay back down.
Not quite ready to face the day...
Hollow , oh , is this home?
Maybe one day he'll be back to stay.

Sunrises , it's been years. You call me. My hopes high.
Surprises , is it safe to need(love) you this one time?

And it's never quite the right time.
So I'll wait , you know I don't mind.
If it's love , oh truest love , open my eyes and see.

好久不見的順子,
讓人想要去觸摸擁抱的歌曲
Sunrises 我們的日子依舊充滿了希望...

給等最久的人

詞/曲:小蟲
給我等最久的人,原諒我現在才明白
感謝你的心和愛,讓寂寞的花兒開
好美麗的感覺,經常有你陪我到深夜
好甜美的愛,沒想到就在身邊就在身邊就在眼前

給我等最久的人,原諒我傻得可憐
感謝你不曾埋怨,相信該來的不會走遠
好幸福的感覺,讓你的手遊移我髮間
好幸福的愛,多麼想彌補從前拾回從前直到永遠

It's you, it's you,是你讓我感到幸福
You, it's you,有了你也有了春天(永遠)

I hope you stay with me for a while,
I know it wouldn't take too long, let me make it up to you.

(~from 林憶蓮 不必在乎我是誰 1993)

突然聽起這首歌...好久...好久沒仔細聽...

在那之後...


(profumo mattutino by Gianluca Degrossi 2002)

當那些埋藏多年的、
那些避免觸碰的,
不再是彼此心裡那不能說的祕密...

是否就代表那些可以預見的未來...
是否就代表那些可以期待的完整...

那些還沒說出口的...

景氣的寒流

景氣不好,大家都感覺的出來喔...

只是在百貨公司,看到大家還是殺紅了眼大包小包的買...
這是2個『貧困』的上班族,在COSTCO感覺到的不景氣...

一直很『忙』的奶媽,終於休假,不過剛好我很『忙』
只好趁著上班前,到COSTCO逛逛,順便吃午餐~
其實辦了卡一直沒空來逛逛,挺浪費的!
什麼都好大一包啊!可惜我對餅乾、零食不太感興趣~
倒是肉品跟牛奶還滿吸引人的...可惜要上班,改天再來買。
哎呀~這不是重點!!!

由於COSTCO都不怕客人試吃,那些試吃的小攤位,不誇張...
每個都排的比去看海角七號的人龍還長!
喔~害我跟奶媽也忍不住一起排隊...呵....
那香草里肌肉...好香喔!忍不住排了2輪...
還有...起司、貝果、人參雞粥、醃牛肉、香煎干貝....
如果一直排隊吃,應該午餐都省下來了吧!哈~
雖然生活很『困苦』,我們還算是有sense的人,所以只吃了『少少』幾樣...
不過景氣真的很不好吧,好多人都是全家大小一起來『排隊』吃午餐呢!

好啦~逛完街到一樓吃午餐
COSTCO也很貼心的準備了提供碎洋蔥、酸黃瓜的自助機器...
突然奶媽要我撇頭過去看
一個媽媽正拿著一個超大的塑膠袋....她在裝碎洋蔥!!
絲毫不畏懼其他人異樣的眼光,這位媽媽很滿足的裝了2大袋碎洋蔥...

「喔~是景氣真的這麼差喔,連碎洋蔥也要貪小便宜!」
「唉,現在什麼都要省啊~說不定...她家是賣現炒的,只是懶得切洋蔥吧!哈!哈!」

For Better or Worse

You could walk behind me, or you could hold my hand.

You could know me fully, or never understand.
And you can drive me crazy , like only you can.
Life's blessing, life's curse,
For better or worse.

You could leave me stranded, or hold me with your eyes.
Come home empty handed, or with a brilliant surprise.
And you could sing me love songs, or just make me blue
Life's blessing, life's curse,
For better or worse, I'm with you.

Sure there are plenty of fish in the sea.
Flocks of birds on the rise.
Baby, not for me, 'cause I live in paradise.

And if harm's way found you, you know I'd be there.
To wrap my love around you, to let you know I care.

And when the angels came down , I'd say don't you dare.
You know not what you do,
May God take me first.
For better or worse, I love you.

(from Debbie Gibson , think with your heart 1995)

以前學生時候還滿常聽的歌,

那時候因為Debbie的歌旋律緩,歌詞又不難..很適合學英文...

現在聽起來,因為歌詞,其實還頗有感觸的...
