爵士狗汪汪叫

因為重播時間剛好在Match of the Day 2之後，週日晚上我常會接著看BBC2的影集Extras。主要也不是要講這個影集，而是昨天看到片尾，隨著在介紹下一個集目是什麼什麼的旁白，我突然發現那片尾曲不是Cat Stevens的〈Tea for the Tillerman〉嗎？

然後，就又把整輯弄出來好好聽了一次。

常會這樣吧，聽到個什麼音樂，你總會有一個什麼樣的畫面與心情會跑出來，有點私密的，個人的，某一個以前的生命片斷，也配著這段音樂。

可能是國小站在家裡藥房店頭聽叫做易百拉的張小燕報流行榜，可能是國中時跑到水族館旁的錄音帶店裡去找細胞出版的什麼音樂，可能高三被放捨時在新公園一個人聽著錄音帶隨身聽，可能是大學時某次因何事，將自己關在租屋處大聲播放到玻璃窗卡卡作響。

原本以為又會是一次帶出點什麼回憶的老盤聆聽之旅，沒想到，不是這麼一回事。

例如wild world好了，歌詞這樣：

Now that I've lost everything to you,
you say you want to start something new,
and it's breaking my heart you're leaving,
baby I'm grieving.

But if you wanna leave take good care,
hope you have a lot of nice things to wear,
but then a lot of nice things turn bad out there.

Oh baby baby it's a wild world,
it's hard to get by just upon a smile.
Oh baby baby it's a wild world.
I'll always remember you like a child, girl.

You know I've seen a lot of what the world can do,
and it's breaking my heart in two,
cause I never want to see you sad girl,
don't be a bad girl,
but if you want to leave take good care,
hope you make a lot of nice friends out there,
but just remember there's a lot of bad and beware,
beware,

Oh baby baby it's a wild world,
it's hard to get by just upon a smile
Oh baby baby it's a wild world,
and I'll always remember you like a child, girl.

Baby I love you, but if you wanna leave take good care,
hope you make a lot of nice friends out there,
but just remember there's a lot of bad,
and beware, beware,

oh baby baby it's a wild world,
it's hard to get by just upon a smile.
Oh baby baby it's a wild world,
and I'll always remember you like a child, girl.

又例低音代表爸爸高音代表兒子的father and son，歌詞這樣：

Father:
Its not time to make a change,
Just relax, take it easy.
Youre still young, thats your fault,
Theres so much you have to know.
Find a girl, settle down,
If you want you can marry.
Look at me, I am old, but Im happy.

I was once like you are now, and I know that its not easy,
To be calm when youve found something going on.
But take your time, think a lot,
Why, think of everything youve got.
For you will still be here tomorrow, but your dreams may not.

Son
How can I try to explain, when I do he turns away again.
Its always been the same, same old story.
From the moment I could talk I was ordered to listen.
Now theres a way and I know that I have to go away.
I know I have to go.

Father
Its not time to make a change,
Just sit down, take it slowly.
Youre still young, thats your fault,
Theres so much you have to go through.
Find a girl, settle down,
If you want you can marry.
Look at me, I am old, but Im happy.
(son-- away away away, I know I have to
Make this decision alone - no)

Son
All the times that I cried, keeping all the things I knew inside,
Its hard, but its harder to ignore it.
If they were right, Id agree, but its them you know not me.
Now theres a way and I know that I have to go away.
I know I have to go.
(father-- stay stay stay, why must you go and
Make this decision alone? )

總的說，不只沒有帶出什麼舊畫面，還帶出一堆未來的畫面，搞得自己夜半毛骨悚然。
