今天是圣诞节。圣诞节虽然是西方的节目,但是它代表的意义却不分国界。在这天,最重要事情就是感恩,感恩一切包括的苦难和不幸。我一直认为,没有苦难,生命就缺少重量。“真正的欢乐让我们爱这个世界,真正的悲哀让我们了解这个世界”。谢谢Z同学推荐的一首“When Christmas Comes To Town”,“这是3D动画片极地快车的主题曲,不是很喜欢那画面的风格,但是一直记住了这充满童真的声音,清冽又温暖。” »» 点击浏览全文 »»»»»»
说起《Brave Heart》的原声音乐,就不得不说说曲作者James Horner这位大名鼎鼎的好莱坞电影配乐家。国人熟悉Horner可能是从《Titanic》开始,那一首《My heart will go on》和一支悠扬的苏格兰风笛不知迷倒过多少人。 影片《勇敢的心中》,Wallace的父亲因为抗击英国的统治而牺牲了。在父亲的葬礼上,村里的小女孩Murron摘了一朵紫蓟花送给了小Wallace。这时风笛第一次响起了象征Wallace和Murron爱情的主题,就是这首《For the love of a Princess》,它是那样的优美而哀怨。 »» 点击浏览全文 »»»»»»
这首歌是电影《这个杀手不太冷》(Leon-The Professional)的主题曲。这部经典的电影,我想不用介绍了吧。如果你还没看过,那我强烈推荐你去看。 Shape of my heart起源于占卜的纸牌本来就含着些命运的深意,被诗人般的歌手配成电影的片尾曲,天衣无缝——心,该是鲜红跳动的桃形,扑克牌中只有红桃像它,那是爱的象征。权力(黑桃)、金钱(方片)、武力(梅花)都非我心所愿。而只有真心,只有爱,是我一直所追求的。 歌曲就是Leon的内心独白。一个职业杀手,生活在自己的世界里。曾经有过刻骨铭心的爱,可在永远失去爱人后,开始了一个人的旅程。不知道他为什么选择杀手这条路。对于杀手,爱只是个包袱。他习惯独来独往,一个人去超市,一个人喝牛奶,一个人坐在椅子上,睁着一只眼睛睡觉,无牵无挂。可是,在他为马蒂尔达开门的那一刻,一切都变了。 大都看完电影的人包括我,都会思考,Leno对马蒂尔达究竟是什么样的感情,可以说是父亲、朋友、情人……不过这些都不重要,不管是哪一种爱,都出自内心最深处。就像歌直到最后,也没有说出究竟什么才是心的形状。
试听:Shape of my heart-Sting
歌词: He deals the cards as a meditation And those he plays never suspect He doesn’t play for the money he wins He doesn’t play for the respect He deals the cards to find the answer The sacred geometry of chance The hidden law of probable outcome The numbers lead a dance
I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier I know that the clubs are weapons of war I know that diamonds mean money for this art But that’s not the shape of my heart
He may play the jack of diamonds He may lay the queen of spades He may conceal a king in his hand While the memory of it fades
I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier I know that the clubs are weapons of war I know that diamonds mean money for this art But that’s not the shape of my heart That’s not the shape, the shape of my heart
And if I told you that I loved you You’d maybe think there’s something wrong I’m not a man of too many faces The mask I wear is one Those who speak know nothing And find out to their cost Like those who curse their luck in too many places And those who fear are lost
I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier I know that the clubs are weapons of war I know that diamonds mean money for this art But that’s not the shape of my heart That’s not the shape of my heart That’s not the shape, the shape of my heart
