美妙

最近迷上了Taking Tiger Mountain (Album)

一遍一遍反覆聽著這張1974年發行的老專輯,喔不!其實它一點都不老,
即便把它擺在2009年的今天依舊是一張十分具有創意精神的創作。
(所以說天才就是天才不論任何年齡,任何時間..)


Brian Eno - Taking Tiger Mountain


就在刮起一陣怪風的午後~

一邊享受音響彼端傳來的美妙音符,
一邊拾起畫筆畫下屬於今日的心情。


Eno - Put a Straw Under Baby

怎麼會這麼好聽啊(含淚ing),每一首都好好聽, 去聽實體更棒啦..


Put a straw under baby,
Your good deed for the day
Put a straw under baby,
Keep the splinters away.

Let the corridors echo,
As the dark places grow
Hear Superior's footsteps
On the landing below.

There's a place in the orchard
Where no-one dare go
The last one who went there
Turned into a crow.

Turned into a crow, crow,
Turned into a crow
The last one who went there
Turned into a crow.

There's a brain in the table,
There's a heart in the chair
And they all live in Jesus,
It's a family affair.



Eno - Taking Tiger Mountain



We climbed and we climbed,
Oh, how we climbed
My, how we climbed
Over the stars to [the] top
[Of] Tiger Mountain
Forcing the lines through the snow



Eno - Mother Whale Eyeless

老實說,我愛死這首了...


I can think of nowhere I would rather be
Reading morning papers, drinking morning tea:
She clutches the tray
And then we talk just like a kitchen sink play
Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
Living so close to danger,
Even your friends are strangers
Don't count upon their company.

This is for the fingers,
This is for the nails:
Hidden in the kitchen,
Right behind the scales.
What do I care?
I'm wasting fingers like I had them to spare,
Plugging holes in the Zuider Zee.
Punishing Paul for Peter,
Don't ever trust those meters
What you believe is what you see.

In my town, there is a raincoat under a tree.
In the sky, there is a cloud containing the sea.
In the sea, there is a whale without any eyes.
In the whale, there is a man without his raincoat.

In another country, with another name
Maybe things are different, maybe they're the same.

Back on the trail,
The seven soldiers read the papers and mail
But the news, it doesn't change.
Swinging about through creepers,
Parachutes caught on steeples
Heroes are born, but heroes die.
Just a few days, a little practice and some holiday pay,
We're all sure you'll make the grade.
Mother of God, if you care,
We're on a train to nowhere
Please put a cross upon our eyes.
Take me - I'm nearly ready, you can take me
To the raincoat in the sky.
Take me - my little pastry mother take me
There's a pie shop in the sky


還有這個版本,有趣!!


Brian Eno - Mother Whale Eyeless +Devo - The Rope Song


In my town, there is a raincoat under a tree
In the sky there is a cloud containing the sea
In the sea there is a whale without any eyes
In the whale is a man without his raincoat.

  1. 我不知道歌手的背景,但聽起來隱約有黑人教堂音樂的趣味,Put a Straw Under Baby很好聽,間奏的樂器有點像風笛,但又沒風笛那麼幽揚?

  2. 阿濟,這張專輯是 Brain Eno 年輕時(25歲)的創作,也是他個人的第二張專輯。
    這張專輯很好聽喔, 我覺得 Eno 是令人激賞和值得尊敬的 musician~

  3. ...一定要留網址是不是...這下總該成功了吧...@@

    我是想說,後面那首"Mother Whale Eyeless"好有趣~
    我很喜歡"The Rope Song"的版本,但這版本是完整的嗎?

  4. 對啊對啊!剛剛肚子「餓」了偷偷跑去那個URL,偷喝了一碗檸檬愛玉冰。好喝...

    然後呢,下回分解。

  5. 哈哈,是這樣的..
    最後放的那MV是網友自行製作的啦

    他把前一個MV " Mother Whale Eyeless " 裡非常跳tone 的一段 "In my town, there is a raincoat under a tree..." 和 Devo 的歌曲 "The Rope Song" 合併在一起,結果造就了現在我們看到的有趣版本。


    啊啊,還有恭喜你留言成功,放一串鞭炮歡迎你,哈哈哈

  6. 唉,看來 iggy 又進入某一種狀態了。
    URL我知道,檸檬愛玉就...算了

  7. 跑去找了Devo"The Rope Song"來聽,哈哈,好妙的結合~其實最初吸引到我的就是Eno那一串跳tone的接龍歌詞,所以結合版的加上自製的畫面很好玩啊XD

    是說妳聽的音樂是我平時比較沒有接觸的,這類的音樂對我來說需要導聽,這陣子處於一個狂嗑各種文本的狀態,想試試以前沒接觸到的東西,就晃來妳這兒啦~妳的音樂筆記書如果要付梓,要通知啦!

    然後...我好像知道iggy是進入一個怎樣的狀態XDDDDDDDD

  8. 老實說你願意聽這些音樂,我心裡真的很高興耶。
    其實,我覺得台灣提供音樂方面的平台一直相當貧乏,坊間音樂資訊的取得也不是太容易。正因為如此,所以我們很容易與許多歐美地區的好作品失之交臂,這樣很可惜!

    幸好現在拜網路之賜,我們能透過網路來閱讀英美地區的音樂週報與雜誌,也能收聽跨國的radio show,真是太幸福了啦..

    如果你喜歡,今後我們也能慢慢來接觸以前不曾聽過的音樂,這樣的日子挺美妙的,不是嗎?( 傻人做傻夢 :D )


    我的音樂筆記純為興趣啦,目前沒考慮別的用途喔。
    然後我終於搞懂檸檬愛玉是怎麼一回事了,哈哈,我也愛吃喔~
