Where is my Mind ? ( 1 )

今年年初，在一個偶然的情況下我聽見了一陣很熟悉的音樂，它是曾經陪我度過晦澀青少年歲月的歌曲 - Where is my Mind 。

因為這首經典名曲，我認識了 Pixies，而" Where is my Mind " 也順勢成了我當時的大愛兒歌之一。(囧～～我以前對美國地下樂壇的認識實在有限。。。)


我幾乎忘了自己已有多久沒再聽過這首歌，而這次我聽到的 " Where is my Mind "，vocals 已經從我所熟悉的 Black Francis 換成 Brian Molko(Placebo)，雖然在我心目中還是根深蒂固的認為 "Where is my Mind = Pixies"，但是不可否認,在聽過許多翻唱版本後發現，Placebo 算是眾多團體中詮釋的頗為用心的一個，而且他們也的確努力賦予這首歌曲某種新的靈魂。

只是不知怎麼地，再一次聽見兒時喜愛的音樂而產生的莫名悸動，使得一向理性凌駕感性的我忽然感傷了起來，同時一幕幕過往的記憶片段，瞬間幻化成一張張黑白照片，不斷重現。。。

我一向很怕紀錄自己的兒歌，尤其面對那種混合著熱情與惆悵的矛盾情緒，常常不自覺將自身推向一種複雜的情境，有時甚至覺得過去的一切彷彿就像夢境般，有種奇怪的不真實感。所以，對於自己兒時喜愛的音樂，我總是稍稍帶著逃避的心態，通常這些美好的回憶，我只能小心翼翼的將他們收到自己心裡的某個角落，放著～～


Pixies - Where is my Mind



Ooooooh - stop

With your feet in the air and your head on the ground
Try this trick and spin it, yeah
Your head will collapse
But there's nothing in it
And you'll ask yourself

Where is my mind [3x]

Way out in the water
See it swimmin'
I was swimmin' in the Carribean
Animals were hiding behind the rock
Except the little fish
But they told me, he swears
Tryin' to talk to me to me to me

Where is my mind [3x]

Way out in the water
See it swimmin' ?
With your feet in the air and your head on the ground
Try this trick and spin it, yeah
Your head will collapse
If there's nothing in it
And you'll ask yourself

Where is my mind [3x]

Ooooh
With your feet in the air and your head on the ground
Ooooh
Try this trick and spin it, yeah
Ooooh
Ooooh



Pixies - Wave Of Mutilation



Cease to resist, giving my goodbye
Drive my car into the ocean
You'll think I'm dead, but I sail away
On a wave of mutilation
Wave of mutilation
Wave of mutilation
Wave
Wave

I've kissed mermaids, rode the El Niño
Walked the sand with the crustaceans.
Could find my way to Mariana
On a wave of mutilation
Wave of mutilation
Wave of mutilation
Wave
Wave

Wave of mutilation
Wave of mutilation
Wave of mutilation
Wave
Wave
