Sunday Bloody Sunday

June 4th, 2007

這首歌是U2為記念北愛爾蘭的流血星期日事件而創作的。影片末段所提及的人名是另一場北愛爾蘭炸彈襲擊(Omagh Bombing)的受害者。

心血來潮,我翻查一下萬年曆,發現那場所謂「春夏之交的政治風波」,也恰巧發生在星期天。我看見U2和歌迷們可以大大聲唱Sunday Bloody Sunday。我們呢?18年過去了,現在的主流態度反而是沉默和逃避。這算不算是一種退步?


Yes…

I cant believe the news today
Oh, I cant close my eyes and make it go away
How long…
How long must we sing this song?
How long? how long…

cause tonight…we can be as one
Tonight…

Broken bottles under childrens feet
Bodies strewn across the dead end street
But I wont heed the battle call
It puts my back up
Puts my back up against the wall

Sunday, bloody sunday
Sunday, bloody sunday
Sunday, bloody sunday (sunday bloody sunday…)
(allright lets go!)

And the battles just begun
Theres many lost, but tell me who has won
The trench is dug within our hearts
And mothers, children, brothers, sisters torn apart

Sunday, bloody sunday
Sunday, bloody sunday

How long…
How long must we sing this song?
How long? how long…

cause tonight…we can be as one
Tonight…
Tonight…

Sunday, bloody sunday (tonight)
Tonight
Sunday, bloody sunday (tonight)
(come get some!)

Wipe the tears from your eyes
Wipe your tears away
Wipe your tears away
I wipe your tears away
(sunday, bloody sunday)
I wipe your blood shot eyes
(sunday, bloody sunday)

Sunday, bloody sunday (sunday, bloody sunday)
Sunday, bloody sunday (sunday, bloody sunday)
(here I come!)

And its true we are immune
When fact is fiction and tv reality
And today the millions cry
We eat and drink while tomorrow they die

The real battle yet begun (sunday, bloody sunday)
To claim the victory jesus won (sunday, bloody sunday)
On…

Sunday bloody sunday
Sunday bloody sunday…

Taxloss - ₤25,000 marketing campaign

May 28th, 2007

點樣利用二萬五千英磅做唱片宣傳好呢?Mansun決定派左佢。但如何派錢先最有效果呢?係人來人往既車站fing哂佢最夠gimmick。campaign...原來係咁架?


Taxloss

He’ll be your taxloss lover from Liverpool
Taxloss lover if the truth be told
Taxloss lover still lives in the War
Taxloss lover touching 74
Ah, come back to me
We want your money, taxloss
We think you are stupid
We give you money ‘cos our assets are fluid yeah
We’ll sell you down the river
Just remember that we said we’d deliver you

Sign on the line and we’ll give you the money
And then you’ll be mine and we’ll fly somewhere sunny
And you’ll quibble that our drivel seems unsatifactory
You’re a taxloss, come back to me
We want your money, taxloss

He’ll be your taxloss lover and his name is Bert
Taxloss lover and he’s always a flirt
Your taxloss lover into kinky sex
Your taxloss lover wears a cracking dress

Sign on the line and we’ll give you the money
And then you’ll be mine and we’ll fly somewhere sunny
You’ll quibble that our drivel seems unsatifactory
We’re a taxloss, come back to me
We want your money, taxloss

Sign on the line and we’ll give you the money
And then you’ll be mine and we’ll fly somewhere sunny
And you’ll quibble that our drivel seems unsatifactory
A taxloss, come back to me
We want your money, taxloss

Taxloss, mod rock
Junk pop, chart hop
Mop top, swap shop
Who’d you nick your cliche off

Dark Mavis

May 26th, 2007

張懸演繹Mansun的Dark Mavis。


Wait around, I’ll be walking quite a while
Don’t be late
Hard to take, Vicar twists and gets away
His lipstick’s running, his dress is stunning
He’s got high heels on
And his flock don’t care now
In the path of righteous man
There is rubble where I stand
I’ll be the one, you can kiss his vase
Until the end of the month
Vicar stay ‘cos your lipstick smeared away
From your face
Vicar twist, grey pajamas in your case
His tights are nylon, his nails by Revlon
He’s got high heels on
And his flock don’t care now
Mavis what will he wear
Mavis what will he wear
In the path of righteous man
There is rubble where I stand
I’ll be the one, you can kiss his vase
Until the end of the month
And if you should see me passing by
Do not disturb me as I fly
Though I am far away
This is where I’ll be
In the path of righteous man
There is rubble where I stand
I’ll be the one, you can kiss his vase
Until the end of the month
In the path of righteous man
There is rubble where I stand
I’ll be the one, you can kiss his vase
Until the end of the month
Until the end of the month
Until the end of the month

我在早上七時沉沉睡去

May 25th, 2007

我在床上翻滾了一整晚,我想睡,也應該睡,卻睡不了。醒來睡去,輾轉反側,像省略號。窗外的漆黑漸漸被冰冷暗淡的光填滿。早上七時,睡意終於襲來,我沉沉睡去。不到半小時,床頭的鬧鐘響起。在我的身體終於渴望睡眠的時候,我卻被迫起床上班去,因為那不是適合進入深沉夢鄉的時間啊。

這是一個隱喻嗎?他媽的。
