迷幻藥

老實說，我是最近幾年才瘋狂愛上Brain Eno的音樂。

少年時期的我，一向是衝鋒陷陣的信仰者。。。
因為叛逆，因為憤怒,，
我將內心所有的滿腔熱血完全投注在搖滾音樂裡，
尤其當我面對Punk Rock與Post Punk，
那誘惑簡直令我無力抵抗。


漸漸隨著年歲增長,，我發現自己對音樂的 Range 比起從前放寬許多，
許多小時後不特別喜歡的音樂現在聽來卻變得很有感覺，
自己好像繞了一大圈才忽然發現了它們的好。

The Velvet Underground 和 Brain Eno 就是典型的例子。

回想過去其實我也聽了許多他們的音樂和創作，
無奈本人從小就是叛逆+憤怒少女，並不是所謂的"老靈魂"～（XD）
所以當年的我，實在體會不出字裡行間的巧妙，心裡自然也對這些感覺老扣扣的東西產生莫名的抗拒。。。
(過了好久之後，我才發現他們其實才是跨世紀劃時代的前衛藝術家啊，算我愚鈍XD)

到了前兩年，我才真正敞開心胸仔細聆聽Eno的音樂，誰知道聽了之後一發不可收拾的愛上它們。

結果發現當你對 Eno 了解越多，就越是尊敬這位橫跨各類藝術領域的前衛藝術家。。。


那是一種不同於20歲聽 Joy Division 時的沉重，
沒有聽Atmosphere 時，那每一次鼓聲的落點都直直的敲入自己心臟的震撼，
還有Ian Curtis 那略帶神經質而咄咄逼人的吐出每一個語句..

也不同於聽 Bauhaus 時內心的狂放，
尤其聽到 In The Flat Field時那種全身汗毛豎立的撼動，
深怕一眨眼就遺漏任何一個動作，一閃神就聽不清他任何一個音符，
只是一直是目不轉睛直盯著Peter Murphy 每一個動作。。。

更不同於聽The Clash 時的熱血，
每當聽到London Calling ，Joe Strummer 的吶喊聲幾乎讓我全身血液都沸騰了。
真的難忘那一票熱血，睡前飯後都要喊一句無政府主義的Punk ，很酷～


但是面對不同年齡對不同歌曲都有全新的想法和認知，
這種感覺 很棒～
就像是你拋開了自己原本得狹隘心態，真心擁抱音樂所帶給你的力量和快樂。
我喜歡這樣的轉變。。。

這不也算是一種意外的收穫和成長？

Brian Eno - The True Wheel

(好喜歡～)
We Are the 801
We Are the Central Shaft


And We Are Here to Let You Take Advantage
Of Our Lack of Craft
Certain Streets Have Certain Corners
Sooner Or Later We'll Turn Your.


We Are the 801
We Are the Central Shaft


And Thus Throughout Two Years We've Crossed the Ocean
In Our Little Craft (Row, Row, Row)
Now We're On the Telephone
Making Final Arrangements (Ding, Ding)


We Are the 801
We Are the Central Shaft


Looking For a Certain Ratio
Someone Must Have Left It Underneath the Carpet
Looking Up and Down the Radio
Oh, Oh, Nothing There This Time
Looking For a Certain Ratio
Someone Said They Saw It Parking in a Car Lot
Looking Up and Down the Radio
Oh, Oh, Nothing There This Time
Going Back Down to the Rodeo
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Here We Go!


We Are the Table the Captain's Table Let's Get It Understood
Let's Get It Understood
We Are the Losers We Are the Cruisers Let's Get It Understood
Let's Get It Understood
We Are the Diners the Final Diners Let's Get It Understood
Let's Get It Understood
Most of Us Are Tinkers, Some of Us Tailors
And We've Got Candlesticks and Lots of Cocktail Sticks
We Saw the Lovers the Modern Lovers and They Looked Very Good
They Looked As If They Could
We Are the Neighbours the Nosy Neighbours We Think Just Like You Would
We Think Just Like You Should.
