董永乐的盲窗

今天晚上加班。突然特别想听世界杯主题曲。在网上搜来听了。把歌词也找到了。

Waka Waka (This Time For Africa)

Shakira

You're a good soldier
Choosing your battles
Pick yourself up
And dust yourself off
Get back in the saddle
You're on the front line
Everyone's watching
You know it's serious
We're getting closer
This isn't over

The pressure's on; you feel it
But you got it all; believe it
When you fall, get up, oh oh
And if you fall, get up, eh eh
Tsamina mina zangalewa
Cause this is Africa
Tsamina mina eh eh
Waka waka eh eh
Tsamina mina zangalewa
This time for Africa

Listen to your god; this is our motto
Your time to shine
Don't wait in line
Y vamos por todo
People are raising their expectations
Go on and feel it
This is your moment
No hesitation

Today's your day
I feel it
You paved the way,
Believe it
If you get down
Get up oh, oh
When you get down,
Get up eh, eh

Tsamina mina zangalewa
This time for Africa
Tsamina mina eh eh
Waka waka eh eh
Tsamina mina zangalewa
Anawa aa
Tsamina mina eh eh
Waka waka eh eh
Tsamina mina zangalewa
This time for Africa

最近不知为何，总是想起《无间道》中的一个片段：

刘警官买了一套HiFi器材，放着蔡琴的《被遗忘的时光》……

于是勾起了10多年前关于HiFi的梦想。

那时还在上学，没有HiFi的条件，只能看《发烧音响》杂志望梅止渴。

后来的生活一直在飘，一直没有一个固定的居所，更谈不上给自己营造一个音乐空间。上学时买了一大箱子CD，全都留在北京，没能随身带过来。现在，那一箱CD也不知道还有几张能放。

6月搬了一次家，房东留下一套组合音响，可惜功放部分有故障。不是自己的东西，也不方便去修（修也不划算了。）

前天想起来房东还留下一台卡拉OK机，杂牌子，型号在网上也查不到。但想了想，没有后级功放，虽然功率小点，但对我听歌的愿望来说，应该还够。而且作为前级放大，失真度应该很小，再加上那套组合音响的一对音箱的优点就是灵敏度还不错。就试了试，果然比我2006年花999元买的那套NEC效果要好。昨天一时也找不到什么合适的音源，就拿笔记本电脑上了。挑了三首歌，闭上眼睛，短暂地让耳朵和心灵享受了一下。

Cara Dillon的"Craigie Hill"

乔维怡翻唱的《白月光》

张绍涵的《梦里花》

有这篇博，得益于周日与老婆一起重温的《肖申克的救赎》中安迪那句话：不能让心灵空虚了。

The River of No Return
Marilyn Monroe

There is a river called THE RIVER OF NO RETURN
Sometimes it's peaceful and sometimes wild and free!
Love is a trav'ler on THE RIVER OF NO RETURN
Swept on for ever to be lost in the stormy sea
Wail-a-ree I can hear the river call [ no return, no return ]
Where the roarin' waters fall wail-a-ree
I can hear my lover call come to me [ no return, no return ]
I lost my love on the river and for ever my heart will yearn
Gone gone for ever down THE RIVER OF NO RETURN
Wail-a-ree wail-a-re-e-ee
She'll/He'll never return to me! [ no return, no return, no return ]

The song just bring me back to those days when I was at school, enjoying English songs.  However, time just can't back to the past, just the river of no return, unless the scientists tell us it's possible. :)

All my past was gone, but there still left some in my memory.

It also reminded me of a signature, left by master:

- What will you store in your new hard disk drive?

- Memory.

要给一个晚会上的节目配乐。

那位要朗诵《再别康桥》，据说还是双语版。

在网上搜到现成的，配的是小提琴，很舒缓。

于是想到了《梦幻曲》，那位天才的作曲家舒曼。

记得那会儿读到舒伯特用《摇篮曲》的手稿换了一份牛肉烧土豆，那经历何等悲凉。

相比之下，舒曼的一生可以说是华丽。因此才会有象《梦幻曲》之类的作品。

但舒伯特的作品中，也很少体现他生活中的痛苦。
