2008年8月1日 星期五

沒什麼
只是想把過去那個悶悶不樂的自己殺死
並且試著去嘗試一些不一樣的東西

變.....只是想讓自己換個角度過日子罷了

順便祝各位八月一號星期五快樂

"Hero"



Chain gleaming
Switching lanes
Two-seating
Hate him or love him
For the same reason
Can't leave it
The games needs him
Plus the people need someone to believe in
So in God's Son we trust
'Cause they know I'm gonna give 'em what they want
They looking for . . . a hero
I guess that makes me . . . a hero

Another chapter of the cleanest rapper
Distinguished gentlemen
Crooks and castle on his back
Maybach-er, exotic lady eye-catcher
Holla at'cha, call me the chiropractor
Working like Muay Thai class
Get perspire out ya
And of course I've been the boss since back when
Rocking D Boy, Fila, velour in 190 black Benz
Now they shut down the stores when I'm shopping
Used to be train robbing, face covered in stocking
I'm him

Chain gleaming
Switching lanes
Two-seating
Hate him or love him
For the same reason
Can't leave it
The games needs him
Plus the people need someone to believe in
So in God's Son we trust
'Cause they know I'm gonna give 'em what they want
They looking for . . . a hero
I guess that makes me . . . a hero

Rubber-grip-holder, reloader
Come at me I'ma rip your soliders in half
Silverback ape, nickle-plated mag
Young, rich, and flashy
Young, b!tch, I'm nasty
All black clothes til ice lay on me so classy
And every time I close my lids
I can still see the borough, I can still see the Bridge
I can still see the dreams that my niqqas ain't never lived to see
Tell them angels open the door for me
From nine berettas and moving raw
To chilling in wine cellars
Sticks and humidors
That's what I call mature
That's what I call a g
That's what I call a pimp
That's what I call a gangsta
To the fullest, sh!t
I try to make more cream
By every September 14th, that's my dream
So I can be more clean, as I grow yearly
I can see things more clearly
That's why they fear me




Chain gleaming
Switching lanes
Two-seating
Hate him or love him
For the same reason
Can't leave it
The games needs him
Plus the people need someone to believe in
So in God's Son we trust
'Cause they know I'm gonna give 'em what they want
They looking for . . . a hero
I guess that makes me . . . a hero


This universal apartheid
I'm hog-tied, the corporate side
Blocking y'all from going to stores and buying it
First L.A. and Doug Morris was riding wit it
But Newsweek article startled big wigs
They said, Nas, why is he trying it?
My lawyers only see the Billboard charts as winning
Forgetting - Nas the only true rebel since the beginning
Still in musical prison, in jail for the flow
Try telling Bob Dylan, Bruce, or Billy Joel
They can't sing what's in their soul
So untitled it is
I never change nothin'
But people remember this
If Nas can't say it, think about these talented kids
With new ideas being told what they can and can't spit
I can't sit and watch it
So, sh!t, I'ma drop it
Like it or not
You ain't gotta cop it
I'm a hustler in the studio
Cups of Don Julio
No matter what the CD called
I'm unbeatable, y'all

Twista - So Lonely (feat. Mariah Carey)

快嘴饒舌怪物Twista跟花蝴蝶在2005年合作的歌
收錄在Twista的The Day After

"So Lonely"


[Twista]

It's ya boy Twista, that girl Mariah
It's that fire

You know I like the way you kick it gurl
You know I like it when you in my world
C'mere lil' momma lemme freak yo' body
Then roll wit me in the Bentley white pearl
Girl you know you get me so erotic
Especially when I be sippin Hypnotiq
Got me feelin like I'm smokin on chronic
When we fuckin it be so exotic
Now I know that everything be on fire wit Mariah
And she know she be dealin with a baller
Hiccup ashes and meet me through the wire
Fulfullin desires like a Chi shot caller
Do you love how the Twista went at you (at you)
Do you love when I hit it from the back too (back too)
Let me feel how you hook up that one way
C'mon baby girl let me see what that do

[Hook: Mariah Carey]
I wish that we could, blow up the speakers
Over and over, tell jokes and secrets
Forever, your lady, you act right, then maybe
Ain't nothing to talk about, with the music loud
So they won't hear me say...

[Chorus: Mariah Carey (x2)]
Ahhhh, hah hah, hah hahhh; come and be my one and only
I'm tired of being so lonely, come hold me
Ahhhh, hah hah, hah hahhh; wanna wrap myself around you (around you)
whenever you want to come make me say
Ahhhh, hah hah, hah hahhh; come and be my one and only
I'm tired of being so lonely, console me
Ahhhh, hah hah, hah hahhh; wanna wrap myself around you (around you)
whenever you want to come make me say

[Twista]
Now we pullin up out the garage
In the platinum blue Arnage
Me and you about to hit that club
To the bar so we can sip that bub
Both of us together we be the livest
If I had to break it down, how would I describe it
(Ahhhh, hah hah, hah hahhh)
We the type of couple that when we get up with each other
We get it crackin in the kitchen or the bedroom
It don't matter where we at, we be makin noise
So play the track, so the bass'll make your head boom
Break you off when you hold one leg up
And you know I like the way you put it on me
It's the East coast queen and the midwest mob boss
Shawty I'ma never leave you lonely

[Hook]

[Chorus]

[Twista]
Let me give it to you all night long
Let me give it to you through this song
Let me give it to you in the hallway
Let me give it to you on the balcony baby (that's right)
Give it to you on the East coast (East coast)
Give it to you on the West coast (West coast)
Give it to you down South
Let me give it to you in the midwest baby
Let me give it to you in the U.K.
Let me give it to you through the DJ
Let me give it to you in the rack or the back
I got you yankin the sac, that's how a freak play
Give it to you however you desire
And I gotta show you that I ain't a liar
I'ma console you even when you lonely
Come and listen to the Twista and Mariah

[Mariah Carey]
Soldier show a girl what it do (what it do)
After this boy (I'm promising you)
You got my body lit up like the moon
Way too persuasive I can't take it I'm so caught up in you

[Chorus - first repeat only]

Foo Fighters - Let It Die

這首歌跟The Pretender一樣都是出自Echoes , Silence , Patience & Grace
第一次聽的時候感覺跟Pretender一樣,前奏都讓我提不起興趣@@
不過在後半段,Dave的嗓音加上歌詞內容讓我愛上了這首歌

都有動人的嗓音,我想這是Kurt跟Dave最大的共通點吧!

"Let It Die"





Heart of gold but it lost its pride
Beautiful veins and bloodshot eyes
I've seen your face in another light
Why'd you have to go and let it die?

Why'd you have to go and let it die?
Why'd you have to go and let it die?
In too deep and out of time.
Why'd you have to go and let it die?

A simple man and his blushing bride
Intravenous, intertwined
Hearts gone cold your hands were tied
Why'd you have to go and let die?
Why'd you have to go and let die?
Why'd you have to go and let die?
In too deep and out of time.
Why'd you have to go and let die?

Did you ever think of me?
You're so considerate.
Did you ever think of me?
Oh, so considerate.

In too deep and lost in time
Why'd you have to go and let it die?
Beautiful veins and bloodshot eyes
Why'd you have to go and let it die?
Hearts gone cold and hands were tied.
Why'd you have to go and let it die?
Why'd you have to go and let die?

Did you ever think of me?
You're so considerate.
Did you ever think of me?
Oh, so considerate.

In too deep and lost in time
Why'd you have to go and let it die?
Beautiful veins and bloodshot eyes
Why'd you have to go and let it die?
Hearts gone cold and hands were tied.
Why'd you have to go and let it die?
Why'd you have to go and let this die?
Why'd you have to go and let this die?
Why'd you have to go and let this die?
Why'd you have to go and let this die?

Why'd you have to go and let it die?

Hans Zimmer & James Newton Howard - The Dark Knight



以下文章轉自metalmow的部落格

《黑暗騎士》無疑是今年目前為止聲勢最強大的電影
而其電影配樂也是一絕
相信大家都對小丑的雜音前奏、以及蝙蝠俠的沈重配樂
有著深刻的印象
尤其是小丑的雜音前奏
每次聽到那雜音傳來
就知道又有人要慘死了...壓迫感超重的
我翻譯了原聲帶CD中所收錄,導演諾蘭對電影配樂的一點心得
放在這裡和大家分享
由於小弟我不是專業翻譯
有謬誤之處在所難免
還請有購買這張CD的同好不吝指教,謝謝~

* * * * * * * * * * * *

我必須要向漢斯和詹姆斯承認,我之所以會想重回《開戰時刻》世界的原因之一,就是因為背景音樂實在太過出色。音樂確實完美捕捉到到我心中想像的氣氛——充 滿能量,且不失莊嚴,動感與情感兼具。他們的音樂比人們所知道的還要有創新感,我從沒看過有動作電影的預告片能和配樂如此契合。所以,我認為我們不需要添 加太多的新音樂到新故事《黑暗騎士》中。

當我和漢斯表達我的看法時,他並不急著和我爭辯,他只是給了我「好啊,我們等著瞧」的眼神,然後詢問這次的新角色「小丑」的相關細節。我使用「卑劣、凌 亂、令人害怕」等字眼來形容這個角色。我還說我希望能馬上聽到試作品,越快越好。我在坐飛機前往香港的旅程中,用隨身聽來聽這些試作品,結果我這一輩子所 聽過最粗糙、最難以理解的怪音樂就這樣不斷的灌進我耳中,下了飛機後,長時間被怪音轟炸的我簡直變了個人。但在這些折磨人的音樂中,潛伏著小丑那駭人的笑 聲下,最寧靜也最精緻的痛苦情緒。

哈維丹特的音樂則需要另一種表現手法。這個角色的悲劇是《黑暗騎士》故事的情感主軸,我希望詹姆斯能用他的音樂,將哈維丹特從理想英雄轉變為墮落之人的意 境給傳達出來。詹姆斯先用充滿美國風的感覺來塑造哈維的音樂,最後以恢弘的交響樂作結,呈現出哈維從優雅轉為墮落的意象。此段配樂風格是蝙蝠俠系列電影的 全新嘗試,但卻能完美的和其他音樂融合在一起,這都要歸功於兩位音樂大師的無間合作。他們倆之間完全沒有任何嫌隙,在最良性的競爭下,兩位大師相輔相成, 使出渾身解數做出最好的音樂。

我們有想過直接把《開戰時刻》部分的音樂套入新電影中,不過當剪接工程開始後,我們就知道直接移植的方式是行不通的。幸運的是,漢斯和詹姆斯不斷的研究著 製作中的電影片段,他們尋找新的音效,還有新的音樂元素,讓他們的音樂和電影故事一起成長。在拍片的過程中,我能感受到每個部門都對《黑暗騎士》有著相當 大的野心,漢斯和詹姆斯的音樂團隊當然也不例外。當其他人已經在休息充電時,音樂團隊則利用這個時段開工。他們永遠對自己的作品不滿意、不滿足,總是覺得 還有哪裡可以作的更好…

在詹姆斯無止盡的追求卓越完美,以及漢斯對鼓聲的執著堅持下。比前作更能使《黑暗騎士》完整的音樂傑作終能呈現。而漢斯也非常有風度,好在他沒跟我說「我早就跟你說了嘛!」

克里斯多夫諾蘭

------------------------------------------------

TDK的原聲帶是由Hans Zimmer(圖左)跟James Newton Howard(圖右)兩位配樂大師做出來的
JNH我比較沒注意,所以我在這邊也不多提了
不過Zimmer常看電影的可能都聽過他的音樂
舉幾個近期他的作品:神鬼奇航2,3、達文西密碼、功夫熊貓、蝙蝠俠開戰時刻,黑暗騎士、神鬼戰士、末代武士......等等,從1982年到現在Zimmer的作品已經超過一百個了

短短一分多鐘的The Dark Knight現場演奏

Slipknot - Wait And Bleed

99年Slipknot同名專輯裡面的歌

最近兩三個月的心情,配上這首歌的歌詞
幹!還真他x的爽!

"Wait & Bleed"



I felt the air rise up in me
Kneel down and clear the stone of leaves
I wander out where you can't see
Inside my shell, I wait and bleed.
I felt the air rise up in me
Kneel down and clear the stone of leaves
I wander out where you can't see
Inside my shell, I wait and bleed.

Goodbye!

I wipe it of my tie, the light is brighter this time
Everything is 3D blasphemy
My eyes are red and gold, the hair is standing straight up
This isn't the way I pictured me
I can't control my shakes, how the hell did I get here?
Something about this, so very wrong
I have to laugh out loud, I wish I didn't like this
Is it a dream or a memory?

I felt the air rise up in me
Kneel down and clear the stone of leaves
I wander around where you can't see
Inside my shell, I wait and bleed

Get outta my head cause I don't need this
Why didn't I see this? I'm a victim Manchurian candidate
I have sinned by just
Makin' my mind up and takin' your breath away!

I felt the air rise up in me
Kneel down and clear the stone of leaves
I wander around where you can't see
Inside my shell, I wait and bleed
I felt the air rise up in me
Kneel down and clear that stone of leaves
I wander out where you can't see
Inside my shell, I wait and bleed.

Goodbye!

You haven't learned a thing
I haven't changed a thing
My flesh was in my bones
The pain was always free
You haven't learned a thing
I haven't changed a thing
My flesh was in my bones
The pain was always free

I felt the air rise up in me
Kneel down and clear the stone of leaves
I wander out where you can't see
Inside my shell I wait and bleed
I felt the air rise up in me
Kneel down and clear the stone of leaves
I wander out where you can't see
Inside my shell, I wait and bleed.

AND IT WAITS FOR YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lemar - Your Face

炎熱無聊的夜晚
想起了你那我好久不見的笑容
也自然的想起了這首歌

"Your Face"



[Chorus]
When i'm tired of all the lying
Have no one to hold on to
When the tears are falling
The sun seems to hide behind the moon
Open arms i'm calling
Nothin ever will replace
Though i know you're watching
I wish that i could see your face

Sometimes i find a corner and i just wanna be alone
I don't wanna say no prayers
And i won't answer the phone
You showed me everybody goes through problems
Everybody cries
But no one can show you what to do when you lose someone in life

I need you now even more than the air i breathe
You always intervened when things got too hard for me
Where are you now?
Can you reach me somehow?

[Chorus]

Many times though i'm surrounded, i still feel so alone
That's when you send a sign to me that somehow makes me strong
It's only when you've been there that the words become so true
I'd give up everything i own for one last dance with you

I think about you each and every single day
I promise i won't let your memory fade away
How are you now?
Can you tell me somehow?

[Chorus]

Sometimes i find a corner and i break down and cry
I wish that i could see your face
