Dark Was The Night

My favourite three tracks from the complication.

留下來陪你生活

演唱: 張懸
留下來陪你生活
作詞：陳樂融　作曲：張小雯

你聽過千百首歌　真實的日子還是一個人過
而一個人的脆弱　和許多心都相通
你的我的他的　我們同在一個夢裡走

我曾經傻的可以　癡心想抱住那麼大的地球
讓有緣人能結合　讓暴風雨都沉默
現在相信命運　比我們每個人都懂

我想留下來陪你生活
一起吃點苦　再享享福
我想留下來陪你生活
幸福不要多　只要我心感覺夠

我想留下來陪你生活
一起流點汗　再唱唱歌
我想留下來陪你生活
故事不要多　只要精彩就足夠

Quit acting for Hip-hop?

I think...

I think many people, including me, think that language lacks when we want to express something we feel, something we see, something we hear in real life. In many occasions, languages even confused us and misunderstood others.

But when you read the following words:

• cherry blossom mornings of springtime
• singing in the breeze
• mist over mysterious forest
• wind blowing through wheat fields

These words are so beautiful if we use a little imagination. Isn't it?

So in between that, we have the pleasure to enjoy beauty of life and creativity of our minds.

Big Day Coming

Big Day Coming - Yo La Tengo
Let's be undecided, let's take our time
And sooner or later, we will know our mind
We'll be on the outside, we won't care
Cause we're together, that's somewhere

And there's a big day coming, about a mile away
There's a big day coming, I can hardly wait

Let's wake up the neighbours, let's turn up our amps
And we know we're used to without a plan
We can play a Stones song, sitting on a fence
And it'll sound pretty good, till I forget how it ends

I woke up early, couldn't go back to sleep
Cause I had been thinking of where it all would lead
So I made you wake up, I said, "Let's take a walk,
I wanna hold your hand, we don't have to talk"

+ baby, I can't wait to come back to you. This song fits perfectly!

Peter Saville

Peter Saville is famous for the design of record sleeves for Factory Records artists, most notably for Joy Division and New Order. These sleeves are beautiful, it really makes the vinyl album more collectable in my personal opinion.

School of Seven Bells

Lately, I'm really into dream-pop, because I've been working on a dreamy mixtape for my very special one.
After reading through few other blogs, and found this new great band, School of Seven Bells.
Ex-Secret Machines' guitarist, Benjamin Curtis with a pair of twin sisters Alejandra and Claudia Deheza.

Released their album "Alpinisms" in 2008.
Their music sounds dreamily pop.
I think they took a lot of influences from India. Some of the songs sound like...chanting Buddhist scripture. Still cool though.
Well, I guess I will let the professional do their job.

• "Turn off your mind, relax, and float downstream." 8.0 (Recommended)-Pitchfork
• "The twin sisters' heavenly harmonies are unlike anything else you'll hear (the closest reference point is Cocteau Twins' Liz Fraser) and they make this debut album quite otherworldly and something very special indeed."-9 out of 10 NME
• "What pushes these songs past mere worship involves cunning collisions of robust rhythm, caressing noise, and heavenly melody, with each element equally crucial. Good shoegaze/dream-pop bands mastered one of them; the most exceptional of the heap, like this group, had all three down." 4 1/2 out of 5 - AMG

Half Asleep - great video! I like!

ps. SVIIB had toured with bands like Blonde Redhead and M83. Now they are currently touring with Bats for Lashes and White Lies. God, I wish I could see them all at once, sigh...
