聽 想像歌唱

 
 
    想找一首歌詞有點意思,但又不失popular況味的歌,很自然的就找到伍佰的歌。    

     
   
       伍佰有些歌詞是很有想像力的,適合拿來說說「超現實主義」這個文學術語。然而避免落入玄妙,所以想換個方式,找些具體生活裡的例子,說說它更為鬆散卻有義意的用法,作為一種形容詞的用法。
 

 然而不管手法如何,有感而發仍是創作的動機。因此我們說他「寫實」或者有現實取向。如同Bob Dylan 的歌。

Blowing in the wind 

How many roads must a man walk down

Before they call him a man

How many seas must a white dove sail

Before she sleeps in the sand

How many times must the cannon balls fly

Before they're forever banned

The answer, my friend, is blowing in the wind

The answer is blowing in the wind
 



How many years must a mountain exist

Before it is washed to the sea

How many years can some people exist

Before they're allowed to be free

How many times can a man turn his head

And pretend that he just doesn't see

The answer, my friend, is blowing in the wind

The answer is blowing in the wind
 



How many times must a man look up

Before he can see the sky

How many ears must one man have

Before he can hear people cry

How many deaths will it take

'Till he knows that too many people have died

The answer, my friend, is blowing in the wind

The answer is blowing in the wind

 
  說這是反戰的歌吧,夠現實的評論,但這樣闡述現在聽來依然動人,因為這裡有跨越時空的普遍性存在,如和平、公義、人權等等價值的宣揚,這是「超」現實卻再現實不過的議題,正如楊熾昌說過的:「我們在超現實中透視現實,捕捉比現實還要現實的東西。
