今天晚上Kenny Garrett四重奏在國家音樂廳所帶來的即興演出似乎一掃下午突如其來的一場大雷雨的煩悶之氣. 2個小時隨心所至的音符在身體與心靈間自由的竄動.
What a wonderful night !

什麼樣的人生經歷，才會讓古人窮盡一生創作出流傳千古的鉅作？什麼樣的生活體驗，才會讓歌手寫出感動人心的音樂？

低調到不行[傳言因害怕鎂光燈不想與瑞妮齊薇格一起走奧斯卡星光大道而被瑞妮甩了]的愛爾蘭創作歌手Damien Rice， 因不願屈服唱片公司希望他做一些適合電台播放的輕快作品， 一番掙扎後毅然離開愛爾蘭前往托斯卡尼，並在歐洲展開街頭賣藝演唱。回到愛爾蘭後，幸運的遇到了愛才的電影配樂大師David Arnold [Stargate, Independence Day, Tomorrow Never Dies]資助他購買了可移動式的錄音室，個人專輯O才得以問市。簡單的吉他伴奏再加上大提琴的低沉琴聲，接近原音毫不花俏的真實聲音，唱出一幅幅浮現在聽者腦中的滄桑影像。 

最近以”You Are Beautiful”一曲紅遍英國的James Blunt，在其歌聲背後很難想像當歌手前的他竟是個曾在科索沃打仗的的軍官，而且他說”My life is brilliant”, (我的生活很精彩)。 我想是吧， 戰爭中所產生的分離死別，絕不是我們這些一般人可以經歷跟體會的。

他們的作品，聽起來很純粹，很動人，很滄桑，但苦中帶著甜美。

能聽到這些作品，不只是幸運，還真是幸福啊！ music saved my life again！！

DANIEL POWTER - Bad Day

Where is the moment we needed the most
You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost
They tell me your blue skies fade to grey
They tell me your passion's gone away
And I don't need no carryin' on

You stand in the line just to hit a new low
You're faking a smile with the coffee to go
You tell me your life's been way off line
You're falling to pieces everytime
And I don't need no carryin' on

Cause you had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
The camera don't lie
You're coming back down and you really don't mind
You had a bad day
You had a bad day

Well you need a blue sky holiday
The point is they laugh at what you say
And I don't need no carryin' on

You had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
The camera don't lie
You're coming back down and you really don't mind
You had a bad day

(Oh.. Holiday..)

Sometimes the system goes on the blink
And the whole thing turns out wrong
You might not make it back and you know
That you could be well oh that strong
And I'm not wrong

So where is the passion when you need it the most
Oh you and I
You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost

Cause you had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
You've seen what you like
And how does it feel for one more time
You had a bad day
You had a bad day

Had a bad day
Had a bad day
Had a bad day
Had a bad day
Had a bad day
