Every Little Thing--重要的小事

若說出生在華文世界最大的幸福是能閱讀武俠小說

那身為北歐國家的國民最棒的事除了神話之外

就是令人起雞皮疙瘩的黑死樂了

前二個星期期末考加上颱風天

沒有出遊沒有電動沒有寶島少年

只有念不完的共筆背不起來的考古題

焦慮煩悶加上想玩想擺爛的躁動在胸口鼓動

果然只有央葛的黑死樂才能抒解這些複雜的情緒啊

之前陪我度過上一段黑暗期的Symphony X-Paradise lost已經被我打入冷宮

這次我的新歡是Eternal Tears of Sorrow (EToS)的Chaotic Beauty

Symphony X帶給我啟示錄、墮天使之怒的印象

(我最喜歡Set the World On Fire the Lie of Lies

像是天使墮落時挾帶著憤怒的火燄化整個伊甸樂園為焦土一片)

而EToS給我的感覺像是在百幕達三角洲鬼打牆的船員們

聽到雨霧裡傳來的糜糜之音而發毛的那種感覺

在令人發瘋的魔鬼節奏與旋律中

以僅有的理智對無止盡的黑暗白霧長嘯嘶吼

在颱風肆虐的夜半扭開喇叭更是心有戚戚

而我最喜歡的一首是Autumn’s Grief

一開始的鋼琴清脆地落在深夜的孤寂

接著鼓聲一陣狂瀉

引出男子的悲傷與獨白

而鋼琴帶出的主旋律並未消失

反而以貝斯(or吉他？)的形式繚繞在背景裡

就像男子在深夜裡的愁訴

人聲最後悲吼的同時鋼琴又鏗然出現

將整首歌結束在黑白鍵間的蒼涼

送上歌詞

想聽歌曲的只好自己去買CD或上你的管子去找囉

The dance of two free souls...No more masquerades of mortals
Just you and me as nightly guests at the dance hall of our last Autumn
Your look's so faithful, so brave...as you feel our common pain
Our lives and love now in a single stream...the stream of our last Autumn's grief

Together we lived our lives...and together we will leave...
It shall be the final tie of our bloody seal...
We gave our secret promise on the shore of our red streams...
The bloody oath of real love...the oath of red falling leaves...

Your look's full of passion...as the night kisses your skin
You close your eyes and also let me feel our common will
This crimson stream will be the final step on the path of our mortal lives
You know our love is real...and oh yeah, so do I...so do I

Together we lived our lives...and together we will leave
It shall be the final tie of our bloody seal
We gave our secret promise on the shore of our red streams
The bloody oath of real love...the oath of red falling leaves

Together we lived our lives...and together we will leave
It shall be the final tie of our bloody seal
We gave our secret promise on the shore of our red streams
The bloody oath of real love...the oath of red falling leaves of the last
Autumn
