I found a reason - Cat Power

這首歌是我在「Ｖ怪客」（V For Vendetta）以及「面子」（Saving Face）兩部電影裡所聽到的配樂，演唱的歌手我雖不太熟悉，但總覺得她的聲音可以輕易進入我心很裡面的地方。非常溫柔，但卻有一點點憂鬱，我想很適合有點藍色心情的時候聽。



Oh I do believe
In all the things you say
What comes is better than what came before

##CONTINUE##And youd better come come, come come to me
Better come come, come come to me
Better run, run run, run run to me
Better come

Oh I do believe
In all the things you say
What comes is better that what came before

And youd better run run, run run to me
Better run, run run, run run to me
Better come, come come, come come to me
Youd better run

Home - Michael Buble

Another summer day
Has come and gone away
In Paris and Rome
But I wanna go home
Mmmmmmmm

##CONTINUE##Maybe surrounded by
A million people I
Still feel all alone
I just wanna go home
Oh, I miss you, you know

And I've been keeping all the letters that I wrote to you
Each one a line or two
"I'm fine baby, how are you?"
Well I would send them but I know that it's just not enough
My words were cold and flat
And you deserve more than that

Another airplane
Another sunny place
I'm lucky I know
But I wanna go home
Mmmm, I've got to go home

Let me go home
I'm just too far from where you are
I wanna come home

And I feel just like I'm living someone else's life
It's like I just stepped outside
When everything was going right
And I know just why you could not
Come along with me
'Cause this was not your dream
But you always believed in me

Another winter day has come
And gone away
In even Paris and Rome
And I wanna go home
Let me go home

And I'm surrounded by
A million people I
Still feel all alone
Oh, let me go home
Oh, I miss you, you know

Let me go home
I've had my run
Baby, I'm done
I gotta go home
Let me go home
It will all be all right
I'll be home tonight
I'm coming back home

Reasons to fall - Luren Hoffman

這首歌是「Luren Hoffman」所唱的「Reasons To Fall」，在Youtube裡找不到原來的music vedio，但我卻碰巧看到網友用「South of nowhere」片段所剪接而成的Clip。

這部主角為高中生的影集雖有涉及同志戀情（Ashley & Spencer, 網路上大家都簡稱他們是Spashley），但裡面所討論的話題卻要比同志來得多多了。譬如說被白人家庭領養長大的黑人Clay要如何去適應這個社會對黑人的歧見，還要找到自己在黑人同伴裡的定位；玩世不恭的Glen在受傷後陷入了毒品上癮的危機，還有高中畢業後失去了對未來的方向；Spencer又是怎麼從一個疑惑膽怯的小鎮姑娘，到認識自己並且勇敢面對一切...

或許我們的成長過程不像電視裡那麼drama，但我們的生活卻也曾像他們一樣跌跌撞撞。「Just be who I am」這檔子事，放諸四海穿越時空，我想都會是一樣困難的吧！



We're on a wire but it's better than drowning
And I don't care if I fall cuz I've never been higher
Everythings changing but I don't care for sameness
'Cause safety makes graves of the fearful I find

##CONTINUE##A ride on a wave, a home on a wind-blown cloud
Make your body loud for me

Could you be safe in my arms, and scared at the same time
Running towards and away 'til you're standing still

The mystery's calling, come if you dare
And find what is there when you tear down the walls
No you're gonna wait til the moment is certain
While I've been out searching for reasons to fall

Hard is the ground you're wrapping your arms around

Nobody's home - Avril Lavigne

I couldn't tell you why she felt that way,
She felt it everyday.
And I couldn't help her,
I just watched her make the same mistakes again.

##CONTINUE##What's wrong, what's wrong now?
Too many, too many problems.
Don't know where she belongs, where she belongs.
She wants to go home, but nobody's home.
It's where she lies, broken inside.
With no place to go, no place to go to dry her eyes.
Broken inside.

Open your eyes and look outside, find a reasons why.
You've been rejected, and now you can't find what you left behind.
Be strong, be strong now.
Too many, too many problems.
Don't know where she belongs, where she belongs.
She wants to go home, but nobody's home.
It's where she lies, broken inside.
With no place to go, no place to go to dry her eyes.
Broken inside.

Her feelings she hides. Her dreams she can't find.
She's losing her mind. She's fallen behind.
She can't find her place. She's losing her faith.
She's fallen from grace. She's all over the place.
Yeah, oh～

She wants to go home, but nobody's home.
It's where she lies, broken inside.
With no place to go, no place to go to dry her eyes.
Broken inside.

She's lost inside, lost inside...oh oh yeah
She's lost inside, lost inside...oh oh yeah

What if God was on of us - Joan Osborne

If God had a name what would it be?
And would you call it to his face?
If you were faced with him in all his glory
what would you ask if you had just one question?

##CONTINUE##Yeah, Yeah, God is great
Yeah, Yeah, God is good
Yeah Yeah yeah yeah yeah

What if God was one of us?
Just a slob like one of us
Just a stranger on the bus
Trying to make his way home

If God had a face
What would it look like?
And would you want to see
If seeing meant that you would have to believe
In things like heaven and Jesus and the saints
and all the Prophets

Yeah Yeah God is great
Yeah Yeah God is good
Yeah Yeah yeah yeah yeah

What if God was one of us?
Just a slob like one of us
Just a stranger on the bus
Trying to make his way home
Just trying to make his way home
Back up to Heaven all alone
Nobody callin' on the phone
'cept for the Pope maybe in Rome

Yeah Yeah God is great
Yeah Yeah God is good
Yeah Yeah yeah yeah yeah

What if God was one of us?
Just a slob like one of us
Just a stranger on the bus
Trying to make his way home
Like a holly Rolling Stone
Back up to Heaven all alone
Just trying to make his way home
Nobody callin' on the phone
'cept for the Pope maybe in Rome

Endless story - Yuna Ito (伊藤由奈)

下面是電影版「娜娜」（NANA）裡面一段超催淚的劇情。當然，我認為音樂好聽（翻唱自一首美國曲，歌名為If I'm Not in Love）佔了成功非常大的因素，而且中文的翻譯十分感人，雖然沒用什麼艱澀的辭句，但聽起來卻非常誠懇；雖然淡淡地，卻帶著一種說著肺腑之言的痛──兩位女主角心疼對方的友情，「娜娜」對「蓮」無法割捨的愛情，好朋友選擇離開卻依然祝福的兄弟情，都在這首歌裡餘音繚繞... 很動人，不是嗎？



##CONTINUE##網路上有很多不同版本的中文翻譯，但我不懂日文分不出優劣，只是我個人較喜歡電影版裡面的：

如果你心意不變　今晚請陪在我身邊
我已厭倦假裝堅強　面對你我幼稚得可憐
只說得出對你的思念　卻難以說抱歉

如果不是為了誰　而是為了你
想唱出這首歌的餘韻綿綿
我們的故事永不完結　持續散發光芒耀眼
一直希望你明瞭　直到永遠

回憶屬於我們之間　不想就這樣消失不見
Don't go away　冰消瓦解　顯而易見
溫柔的點滴　在我心中擴散開來
切不斷我仍對你思念　緊握的手　別鬆開

如果能實現夢想　我要再一次為了你
唱出這歌中的餘韻綿綿
我們的故事永不完結　愛不留餘地空間
tell me why　告訴我吧　永遠永遠在一起

那接下來就請專心地聆聽這首很棒的歌曲吧！



想唱這首歌嗎？下面還有羅馬拼音版本：

The Blower's Daughter - Demian Rice

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 sky

##CONTINUE##I can't take my eyes off of you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off of you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you

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

Whether You Fall - Tracy Bonham

Whether it's the sunshine whether it's the rain
Doesn't make a difference 'til you complain
Whether it's the water coming in from the roof
Does it piss you off that you're not water proof?

Whether you fall means nothing at all
It's whether you get up it's whether you get up

And you hate the silence as it fills up the room
And there's not much to say to your blushing groom
Maybe all eyes are on you as you finish the race
And the world sees you struggling for last place

Dear Mr. President - Pink

Dear Mr. President
Come take a walk with me
Let's pretend we're just two people and
You're not better than me
I'd like to ask you some questions if we can speak honestly

##CONTINUE##What do you feel when you see all the homeless on the street
Who do you pray for at night before you go to sleep
What do you feel when you look in the mirror
Are you proud

How do you sleep while the rest of us cry
How do you dream when a mother has no chance to say goodbye
How do you walk with your head held high
Can you even look me in the eye
And tell me why

Dear Mr. President
Were you a lonely boy
Are you a lonely boy
How can you say
No child is left behind
We're not dumb and we're not blind
They're all sitting in your cells
While you pay the road to hell

What kind of father would take his own daughter's rights away
And what kind of father might hate his own daughter if she were gay
I can only imagine what the first lady has to say
You've come a long way from whiskey and cocaine

How do you sleep while the rest of us cry
How do you dream when a mother has no chance to say goodbye
How do you walk with your head held high
Can you even look me in the eye

Let me tell you about hard work
Minimum wage with a baby on the way
Let me tell you about hard work
Rebuilding your house after the bombs took them away
Let me tell you about hard work
Building a bed out of a cardboard box
Let me tell you about hard work
Hard work
Hard work
You don't know nothing about hard work
Hard work
Hard work Oh

How do you sleep at night
How do you walk with your head held high

Dear Mr. President
You'd never take a walk with me
Would you
