Me >> Myself << MyWorld

的確



有時的確會因為一些小事情



腦袋裡亂七八糟的一堆感覺跟想法



不喜歡咬文嚼字



也整理不出個頭緒



那就一個字帶過吧 ...

Waiting For My Rocket to Come

-Jason Mraz







第一次接觸到Jason Mraz 的音樂

是從這張專輯開始

地點 在一家服飾店

時間 就在試穿衣服的時候聽到

當下的心情 我還記得寫 在這裡



You and I Both 這首歌

讓我聽到笑著流淚 (不是笑到流淚黑)

讓羅曼女覺得我該去當DJ

讓某人聽到怦然心動

他的歌，真的是簡單樸實純真的好聽



網誌裡擺的 Sleep all day 也是一首讓人聽了很relax的歌

覺得很適合下雨天呆在家裡懶在床上時聽

既然下雨出不了門

then why don't we sleep all day, sleep all day ~ over~~



多虧鐵男平時愛聽廣播~

某天跟我update jason mraz 似乎出了新專輯

讓我趕快上網找找









這次的新專輯 【We Sing, We Dance, We Steal Things】

很喜歡網路上找到一篇網誌的介紹，

以下擷取自

拉扣不拉扣 -Jason Mraz 之 搶糧搶錢搶娘兒們 (We Sing. We Dance. We Steal Things)



新專輯名稱叫做【We Sing. We Dance. We Steal Things.】跟投名狀的【搶錢搶糧搶娘兒們】一樣有一種逗趣順口溜的感覺，為什麼取這個名字呢？底下是 Jason 的自問自答。






What is We Sing. We Dance. We Steal Things?

We Sing, We Dance, We Steal Things is a phrase I lifted from Scotland’s Great Visual Humorist David Shrigley. (His version had the word AND between each statement where I’m using punctuation marks.) I fell in love with his work in 2006 and that phrase, taken from a drawing, stuck with me throughout the entire conceptual process of the album. I just knew it was going to be a perfect album title. Each statement seems to encompass what I was going after: A sing-a-long, danceable fervor.



靈感來自蘇格蘭的一個滑稽演員，聽了之後覺得太棒了！這就是他的專輯要追求的！可以讓人邊唱歌邊跳舞！





So, it’s no surprise the album is visited by various choirs and ensembles, as it's what we (humans) like to do. We Sing. And quite simply to accompany that celebration of music, or by accident the way we react to music; We Dance.





所以呢，這張專輯跟一堆教堂合唱團合作。我們人類就是喜歡唱歌，而伴隨而來就是對歌曲的自然反應，舞蹈。





And what things do we Steal? Practically everything.



那我們偷什麼？我們什麼都偷。





Take away anything from your life that could be changed or has changed and What do you have left?

Just yourself.



如果把你的生命中所有可以改變或已經改變的事物都抽離，你還剩下什麼？剩下你的真我啊！





Therefore, all the stuff around us, even our homes, are

borrowed, begged for, or stolen from someone or something else, past and

present. Music, land, names, ideas, fashion styles, personal choices, etc.

All have been built, designed, or practiced before by someone else. Even the carpenters know that the trees didn’t get a fee to become the house.



所以呢，所有在我們身邊的東西都是跟人家借來求來偷來的，音樂土地姓名靈感等等...就連你住的小木屋都是木匠跟樹木偷來的，樹可沒跟木匠收錢啊！





We Steal from our teachers and masters even, to be more like them.



我們跟老師與大師偷東西，以向他們看齊。





So there you go. Now you know what we're all about.



所以囉！你看我們每個人都會偷東西，這就是人生啊！









We Sing. We Dance. We Steal Things.



總之這就是我們的專輯名稱的由來啦！



(Or if you want the short answer: I thought it was funny.)



或是你想要短一點的答案：我覺得這個名字很好笑啊！

真的很喜歡這句，就如同他的音樂一樣，有種回歸最純真的自我的感覺





看了一下官網的行程表~

怎麼Japan, Korea, Singapore 都去了 ...

就是不來台灣開個小型演唱也好ㄚ

曾經

我們是相對的走在前方的

我們是希望拉著對方往前走的

這一段曾經 都不短暫



雖然曾經跌了一跤 傷的不輕

好不容易爬了起來~

拍拍膝蓋 大步往前走

不會說"早知道不選這條路了"

只會摸著頭~ 靦腆的說 "哎呀，有誰走路不摔跤的呢"



雖然依舊往前走，但對於過去

還是會希望
