刮住刮住個心的歌聲

最近學人聽Damien Rice。歌聲和樂器都是簡單質樸的。嘗試像唱K般學Damine的唱腔，效果難受，那刮在人心的聲線是模仿不來的，異於「靚聲」的追求，輕懸的嘶啞，徘徊在邊緣的歌聲，猶如被懷中的貓抓傷，像Louis Armstrong的「含住啖痰」般帶著獨特的感染力。

很多朋友喜歡Closer這電影，大概都會喜歡這首"The Blower's Daughter":

And so it is
Just like you said it would be
Life goes easy on me
Most of the time
And so it is
The shorter story
No love, no glory
No hero in her skies

I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes...

And so it is
Just like you said it should be
We'll both forget the breeze
Most of the time
And so it is
The colder water
The blower's daughter
The pupil in denial

I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes...

Did I say that I loathe you?
Did I say that I want to
Leave it all behind?

I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind off you...
I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind...
My mind...my mind...
'Til I find somebody new

"Cold Water"則讓我想起<<詩篇>>中那些在死蔭幽谷伸手的詩人：

Cold, cold water surrounds me now
And all I've got is your hand
Lord, can you hear me now?
Lord, can you hear me now?
Lord, can you hear me now,
Or am I lost?

No one's daughter allow me that
And I can't let go of your hand
Lord, can you hear me now?
Lord, can you hear me now?
Lord, can you hear me now?
or am I lost?

oooo, I love you
Don’t you know I love you
And I always have
Hallelujah
Will you come with me?

Cold, cold water surrounds me now

Women:cold cold water surrounds me now

And all I've got is your hand
Lord, women :can you hear me?
Lord, women :can you hear me now?
Lord, women :can you hear me?
Ahh...

Am I lost with you?
Am I lost with you?
Am I lost with you?
