偷懒了很久，中秋之际，再不写点东西自己都觉得说不过去了，于是有了这篇。
Come What May: “你曾经对我说，你永远爱着我，爱情这东西我明白，但永远是什么”，
罗大佑的这首《恋曲1980》不可不说是充满了睿智。但是就象名言里说的那样，陷入爱情
中的人，会变成耳聪目明的盲聋，空有智慧的傻子。当听到真正所爱的人对你说：“无论什
么会发生，我将爱你到时间的结束”，你大概也会把罗大佑给忘到九霄云外，脑袋里面装着
的，只有“爱”和“永远”这两个据说是很不可靠的东西。这里推荐的这首歌，出自最近观
看的一部电影《红磨坊》。很喜欢这部电影里面的音乐，尤其是这首Come What May，由此
可见，本人没准儿也很具有变成傻子的潜质。要说这首歌的演唱者，还真是挺不错，都不是
专门唱歌的，就是两个主演Nicole Kidman和Ewan McGregor，但是他们的歌唱功力却都可
圈可点。尼科尔·基德曼刚刚与汤姆·克鲁斯离婚的，由她演唱这首歌，真是让我不能不再
一次向罗大佑表达敬意。

Too Much Heaven: 住在天堂里，你会觉得时间太长吗？沉浸在欢乐里，你会觉得欢乐太多
吗？被爱情俘虏了，你也会觉得爱情太多了吗？大概很少有人会给出否定的答案吧，市侩的
说法就是“钱多不烧手”，嫌爱情太多和嫌钱太多的人这个世界上大概都不多。否定爱情的
人，大多是因为得不到它；正如否定财富的人，大多数都是穷光蛋。值得高兴的是，虽然我
没财富，但我不否定财富；虽然我还没得到爱情，我也不否定爱情。所以我愿意听描述爱情
之美的歌曲，比如这首Bee Gees的Too Much Heaven。Bee Gees乐队实在是我很喜欢的乐
队之一，对他们的第一印象，就是那特殊的嗓音，每次听到都不自觉的联想到“流水”二字。
溪流淙淙，不过如此。

Sad Movies (Make Me Cry): 有些名字在网上是被用的很滥的，比如说小小，依人，依依之
类。我相熟的网友中有个惫懒人物，为显与众不同，自号“衣人”，按下不表。在这些泛滥
的名字里，叫做依依的，我知道的最有名的是大洋网的依依，也是现在新帆原创文学组的版
主。依依的文章拜读过不少，某日在网上遇到，向我说起了这首60年代的老歌，道是曾经
有它的mp3，很是喜欢，可惜一不留神就丢失了。也算我运气不错，很快就找到了这首歌，
无以为敬，正好借花献佛。这首歌由Sue Thompson演唱，说的是一个女孩子在电影院看到
男朋友和自己最好的朋友亲热，潸然泪下，回到家中，母亲问起，答曰：观悲剧所致。人生
如戏，实未欺人。

A Whiter Shade Of Pale: 说起这首歌，曾介绍过两个版本，原唱Procol Harum的经典摇
滚版和Sarah Brightman翻唱的艺术歌曲版。这次推荐的则是我很喜欢的一个女歌手Annie
Lennox翻唱的版本，也正是我一直以来想要找到第三个版本，总算是得偿所愿了吧。Annie
Lennox的歌之前介绍过好几首，比如大名鼎鼎的《吸血鬼的情歌》。可惜她前些年已经退出
歌坛，再无新作了。

记不得是在那部三流的武侠剧广告中听到这首一流的歌曲，辛晓琪的《迷途》。最喜欢那段
词：
总有人永不知足 总有人装不在乎 兜兜转转迷了路
一点点寂寞也忍不住 这辈子注定过得比别人辛苦
总有人不服约束 总有人存心辜负 总让那专情的人哭
若有人还是 这样付出 除了怕孤独 没有别的缘故

且夫水之积也不厚，则其负大舟也无力。覆杯水于坳堂之上，则芥
为之舟。置杯焉则胶，水浅而舟大也。风之积也不厚，则其负大翼也
无力。故九万里则风斯在下矣，而后乃今培风；背负青天而莫之夭阏
者，而后乃今将图南。

歌词：
Come What May
--Nicole Kidman & Ewan McGregor
Never knew I could feel like this
Like I've never seen the sky before
Want to furnish inside your kiss
Everyday I love you more and more
Listen to my heart, can you hear it sing
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 and I'll be there by your side
Storm clouds may gather and stars may go by
But I love you ( I love you), until the end (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
---------------------------------------
Too Much Heaven
--Bee Gees
CHORUS:
Nobody gets too much heaven no more
It's much harder to come by
I'm waiting in line
Nobody gets too much love anymore
It's as high as a mountain
And harder to climb
Oh you and me girl
Got a lot of love in store
And it flows through you, and it flows through me
And I love you so much more
And my love
I can see beyond forever
Everything we own will never die
Love is such a beautiful thing
Oh you make my world a summer day
Are you just a dream to fade away
CHORUS
You and me girl
Got a highway to the sky
We can turn away from the night to day
And the tears we had to cry
You're my life
I can see a new tomorrow
Everything we own never die
Love is such a beautiful thing
When you are to me the light above
Made for all to see
Our precious love
CHORUS
Love is such a beautiful thing
You make my world a summer day
Are you just a dream to fade away
CHORUS
Nobody gets too much love anymore
It's as wide as a river and harder to cross
---------------------------------------------
Sad Movies
--Sue Thompson
Sad movies always make me cry.
He said he had to work so I went to the show alone,
They turned off the lights and turned the porjector on,
And just as the news of the world started to begin,
I saw my darling and my best friend walk in.
Though I was sitting there they didnt see,
And so they sat right down in front of me
And when he kissed her lips I almost died
And in the middle of the colour cartoon I started to cry.
Oh.............
Sad movies always make me cry
oh ...Sad movies always make me cry
So I got up and slowly walked down home
and mama saw the tears and said whats wrong
and so to keep from telling her a lie
I just said sad movies make me cry.
Am............
Am............
Sad movies.......Make me cry..........

A Whiter Shade of Pale
By Procol Harum
We skipped the light fandango
And turned cartwheels across the floor
I was feeling kind of seasick
But the crowd called out for more
The room was humming harder
As the ceiling flew away
When we called out for another drink
The waiter brought a tray
And so it was that later
As the miller told his tale
That her face at first just ghostly
Turned a whiter shade of pale
She said "There is no reason,
And the truth is plain to see"
But I wandered through my playing cards
And would not let her be
One of sixteen vestal virgins
Who were leaving for the coast
And although my eyes were open
They might just as well have been closed
And so it was that later
As the miller told his tale
That her face at first just ghostly
Turned a whiter shade of pale

迷途
-- 辛晓琪
国语专辑《怎么》
休想谁不恨谁 是最好 因为这样反而才糟糕
我 早说过用新欢敷旧伤 伤好不了
可惜 总有人 相信爱情会是解药
只眼也不眨就一口干了 不管它情火怎么烧
要真有麻烦 改天再聊
* 若能错不再犯 是最好 其实这些倒也不重要
明天醒来是哭或是笑 都由人自找
再说 说得再多也 不见得有效
心有多痛要 痛了才知道
究竟 结果是求饶 还是找到宝 不试试永不会揭晓 *
# 总有人永不知足 总有人装不在乎 兜兜转转迷了路
一点点寂寞也忍不住 这辈子注定过得比别人辛苦
总有人不服约束 总有人存心辜负 总让那专情的人哭
若有人还是 这样付出 除了怕孤独 没有别的缘故
