耳朵，雙手，腦袋，在2007年上半年幾乎不管用。 也不是真的沒用，或許是必須要處理的事太多，面對比起潮水還洶湧的、跨越好幾個 十年的歌曲感到一陣無力；好比那惱人的睡眠，每每在夜半成為恐怖的負荷。 進入新的世紀，黑人音樂開始混亂，因為HipHop強力的介入所有曲式，所以排行榜已 經沒有所謂的正確參考價值。以前各種樂種當道，其實那樣的日子比較多元，檯面上的 東西真的很吸引人，那時候的美國真的還是個大熔爐時代，不像近十年，幾乎所有的人 事物都已經制式化，當紅的竟然都是一些狗皮倒灶的怪物，真正有實力、值得一書的， 卻怎樣都無法從參差不齊的環境中脫出。 R&B已經不R&B了，Jazz也已經變成歷史名詞，Soul呢？ 現代人不談Soul，因為Soul都賣給了梅菲斯特。 我以前說過，黑人不可能就被0與1的狂潮給淹沒，他們絕對有能力從腐朽的枕木中再 生出青芽。當我們懷念90年代的美聲，再向前探至80年代的黃金年代，還有70年代的百 變多姿，然後再回過頭來，會發現：假如00年代是成立的，這個段落的音樂可能是空白 如也。 是快速到空白，如同我們現今過的每一天，你很難發現現在發生了什麼事，你只能知 道未來會長成怎樣，過去是多麼值得追憶與尋歡；每一天都有太多無須理會的東西阻在 時間疏道，偏偏我們又要向前走，怎麼辦？ 已經很很少人會靜下心，真真正正靜下心，不是譁眾取寵的靜下心，也不是為求名利 的靜下心，靜下心來做一件自我證明的事。要證明什麼？ 證明我並非活在時間裡。 我們都需要一點點勇氣。 4hero ft. Darien Brockington & Phonte - Give In http://www.zshare.net/audio/257541881df7e1/ (Words by Darien Brockington, Phonte Coleman, Music by Mark Clair) You used to wake me with a smile on your face Each morning lying next to you Now we don't talk cause you have nothing to say So sad wish I could help see you through Wishing time would stand still so you don't feel left behind You never thought you'll find yourself broken torn apart I know there'll be time of rain Those are the days that I want to give in I'll be your friend through the cloudy days Don't be ashamed I won't let you give in Sometimes I wish you could say all the things you want me to be But everyday that you cry is a day that goes by And your slipping away from me Wishing time would stand still so you don't feel left behind You never thought you'll find yourself broken torn apart I know there'll be time of rain Those are the days that I want to give in I'll be your friend through the cloudy days Don't be ashamed I won't let you give in Hey love I've been meaning to call you Seems the stress of life put cracks in your armour But you do it cause it has to be done Although it seems like the faster you run Your destination gets farther I wish that I could take away your problems with a drop Of a dime and say that it's all good but it's not Your dreams get undermined, accounts get overdrawn No matter the case girl I'm waiting with open arms My word is bond... --
