【音乐,城市】深圳:寂寞之城: Angel

【音乐,城市】深圳:寂寞之城: Angel

伴奏主要是钢琴加上远处的合成器,钢琴弹得非常小心,生怕破坏演唱的气氛,Sarah McLachan也唱得非常克制,在真声和假声之间流转,仿佛是在天堂远处的天籁.

这首Angel是电影City of Angel(天使之城)的主题歌,有梅格.瑞恩, 尼古拉斯.凯奇主演,影片看得不知所云,歌曲实在是太好了.

Sarah McLachlan是一个不红的歌手,她的其它的歌乏善可呈,但有这一首歌传世就够了.Sarah McLachlan曾经以嘉宾身份参加Santana的演唱会,重唱了这首Angel,嗨,好好的一首歌给Santana这个老吉他油子坏了味,就像在热咖啡里加了过多的糖.

这是一首关于寂寞的歌,最早在胡晓梅的电台节目听到的.

还有哪个城市比深圳更适合这首歌哪?有比深圳繁华,比深圳平民,比深圳有历史积淀,但是有什么城市比深圳更寂寞?

来深圳的人,就象西游记的孙猴子一样从石头里崩出来,没有人知道他的来历和过去;安顿下来之后又必须为衣食忧,为稻粮谋,绷紧的心一放松下来,环顾四周没有一个亲人可以谈谈心,象大病初愈一样空乏无力;大限一到或纷纷娶妻生子,或匆匆嫁作他人妇,又发现所遇非人,遇人不淑.

只有象深圳这样的寂寞无助的城市才能产生象胡晓梅这样的"城市英雌",一个电台夜谈节目竟然声称要"用声音记录这个城市",扮演着居委会大妈和妇联主任的双重角色,象大妈听完怨妇们的唠叨后,象妇联一样传给怨妇一招对付男人的"胡氏飞刀",更为过分竟然将别人个人的寂寞和无助象标本和化石一样公之于众记录书本. 这,是一种不由分说的城市暴力.

这样的城市英雌充其量只能"记录这个城市的声音",一部分的声音.

我的寂寞自己享受,关你什么事??

想想酒吧出来后,朋友散去的虚脱,看看磨房驴友周末浩浩荡荡开赴梧桐山,七娘山,为什么?有位驴友说得好:山寂寞,我也寂寞.

"我们所处的城市就是这样的城市：是最好的城市，也是最坏的城市；我们很快就要上天堂了，我们也要下地狱了"

Angel

Spend all your time waiting
for that second chance
for a break that would make it okay
there's always some reason
to feel not good enough
and it's hard at the end of the day
I need some distraction
oh beautiful release
memorys seep through my veins
let me be empty
oh and weightless then maybe
I'll find some peace tonight

In the arms of the angel
fly away from here
from this dark cold hotel room
and the endlessness that you fear
you are pulled from the wreckage
of your silent reverie
you're in the arms of the angel
may you find some comfort here

So tired of the straight line
and everywhere you turn
there's vultures and thieves at your back
the storm keeps on twisting
keep on building the lies
that you make up for all that you lack
it don't make no difference
escape one last time
it's easier to believe
in this sweet madness oh
this glorious sadness that brings me to my knees

In the arms of the angel
fly away from here
from this dark cold hotel room
and the endlessness that you fear
you are pulled from the wreckage
of your silent reverie
you're in the arms of the angel
may you find some comfort here
you're in the arms of the angel
may you find some comfort here
