按照通常的公历意义上来讲，今天应该就是我的生日，可是，在家里人这里，今天不是。

我想把这话说出来，会让很多老外们一头雾水，因为中国人的很多关于时令的计算方式是他们没有办法去理解的。其实，在现在的一般日常生活里，中国人已经多是按照公历去计时计日了，但这也只是一般情况，特殊的情况还有很多，比如结婚的所谓吉日、比如新春、中秋佳节，这些时候，中国人是会忘记公历日期的意义而只记得代代相传的农历的。以此类推，换作生日，对于我们这一代人来说，大概是计算公历的多，计算农历的少，可我们的父母却并非如此，于是，就有了我开篇的那句让人费解的话。

说实在的，连自己都差点忘记今天是自己的生日，要不是好友老申提醒，估计今天就如此这般的要错过去了。出生在2月里的人，我想很多都会像我这样，经常会忘记自己公历的生日，而只记得农历生日，谁让这2月如此特殊，经常跟中国人无比重视，念念不忘的农历的正月相联系呢？

在此先谢过老申等诸位好友，特别是老申，在零时准时向我发来祝贺短信，着实让我感动了一把，谢谢，真的，非常感谢。

2007 Grammy 已经过去了有N久了吧，2007 Grammy Nominees这张专辑也在电脑里躺了N久，好像当时恰好是我忙着折腾程序课件，所以一直没有去品味。说实在的，差点就给遗忘了。今天帮老姐Down“伪装者”的Season3和4，在整理的时候发现了，一阵惊喜和兴奋。但打开听时，却发现没有新鲜感——怎么会一大半都是我曾经推荐给华和各位朋友的歌啊？不过，转念一想，或许这也是件好事，从侧面证明，我的欣赏能力还是很有值得显摆的资本的。

恍然想起了N年前，自己还是初中新生时候，我听周杰伦的时候，朋友笑话我听口吃歌曲，结果，一年以后，周的“范特西”发行，周也因为“爱在西元前”红透了大江南北。于是，我又换听王力宏、陈奕迅、孙燕姿等等，都遭到了大家的不屑，可都是不到一年的时光，这些人全部大红大紫……

过年了，在这里向大家说一句“新年快乐”。

新年第一天，自然要跟大家分享一番来自音乐的快乐，List如下：

NO.1：Aleksander With——Coming Home

PS：如今的选秀比赛可以说是红红火火，多如牛毛，中国有我比较看好的梦想中国，有我很看不上眼的超级女生，在美国，有我比较关注的AI。而今天的这位Aleksander With，则是挪威偶像2006年度的NO.1，19岁的阳光男孩，音色很好，唱功也很上档次，大概是年纪尚小，整个专辑还略带一丝青涩，我给Coming Home这张唱片打8.5分，而搜索了很多国内的欧美音乐网站，多数给出的推荐度都高达5颗星之最，可见还是很值得一听的。

NO.2：Chris Daughtry——Daughtry

PS：我相当关注的AI在2006年度留给人最大的遗憾就来自于Chris Daughtry，在4进3时被拒之于三强之外，可以说令无数人大跌眼镜。不过，在我看来，Chris Daughtry位居第4位也在情理之中，虽然Chris的音域宽广，与曾经的AI亚军Bo Bice相比，可以说有过之而无不及。整张专辑与Nickelback的曲风十分相似，我个人认为与Nickelback的Chad Kroeger相比，其声色还是略欠些火候。据媒体上对于Chris的各方面的报导，我觉得这是一个非常有个性的人，据称比赛刚结束Fuel乐队便力邀其加入乐队作主唱，但却很快得到了Chris的拒绝——他有自己对音乐的理解，也有自己的理想与野心，所以，拒绝了Fuel，他创建了属于自己的Daughtry乐队，并发行了这场处女唱片。我给这张唱片打9分，而各网站推荐度则为4星半，究竟该如何评价，我想还是留给大家来公断吧。

又有日子不来了，看样子这里确实冷清很多，原来每天的流量都比现在的月流量多得多。

放假了，所以日子过得浑浑噩噩，听歌不少，但新人新曲很少，推荐给大家的也就少了些许新意，怀旧自然是件很有情调的事，可对于现在这个空间的气氛，不太协调。

废话还是不说了，直接推荐了(全部为专辑)：

NO.1：Michelle Hunziker——Lole
PS：甜美的声音，柔美的人，Michelle绝对是一个尤物，一个天才，身兼数职，横跨众多领域，男人眼中的理想情人，女人眼中的偶像与敌人。

NO.2：Dave Matthews Band——Busted Stuff
PS:老牌的劲旅乐团，介绍太多简直就是浪费和赘余。

NO.3：VariousArtists——Nordic Lounge Vol.2 
PS：看名字大家应该就会明白是一盘合集，VeryCD上对它的评价是很惊人的，而推荐给我的朋友说的话就更加惊人了——震撼心灵都已经不能用来形容它的美妙。个人听过后，感觉也确实非同凡响，但震撼心灵还是足以形容它的，虽然有一点点委屈它。

看来，很多事情没有了动力干起来就是很拖沓，原来总能坚持地去更新，然而，现如今却做不来了，有的时候甚至都忘记了还有这么一块属于自己的地盘。最近听了很多歌，也破例在朋友推荐后试听了一盘中文专辑，感觉很不错，相当具有震撼力。

算是对关注我这片天地的朋友们的谢罪吧，这一次不再只更新一首歌及歌词了，直接给大家列一份我最近在听的清单，有新人的，也有老牌唱将的，总之，是我喜欢的。

NO.1：Dashboard Confessional——Dusk And Summer
NO.2：Matt Willis——Don't Let It Go To Waste
NO.3：The Afters——I Wish We All Could Win
NO.4：Alex Parks——Introduction
NO.5：Ivy——In The Clear
NO.6：Justin Timberlake——Future Sex Love Sound
NO.7：朱哲琴——七日谈

PS：以上更新在VeryCD上应该都有下载，有劳大家自己去找找看了。

来首歌，很轻快，BillBoard上周排名NO.3，本周有所下降，No.7。

JoJo——Too Little Too Late

Come with me,stay the night,you say the words but boy it don't feel right
What do you expect me to say (You know it's just too little too late)
You take my hand,and you say you've changed
But boy you know your beggin' don't fool me,because to you it's just a game
So let me on down,cause time has made me strong,I'm starting to move on
I'm gonna say this now,your chance has come and gone,and you know
It's just too little too late,a little too wrong
And I can't wait,boy you know all the right things to say
You say you dream of my face,but you don't like me
You just like the chase to be real,it doesn't matter anyway
I was young and in love,I gave you everything but it wasn't enough
And now you wanna communicate
Go find someone else,in lettin you go,I'm lovin myself
You gotta problem,but don't come askin me for help
Cause ya know it's just too little too late
I can love with all of my heart baby
I know I have so much to give (I have so much to give)
With a player like you,I don't have a prayer
That's the way to live,it's just too little,too late

又是几天没有来这里，因为又重新回到了PostShow，所以时间上有些紧张，而且，自己也多少有些倦怠了，想来也是，缺乏了动力了，怎么能还像过去那样激情四射？

Thirteen Senses——Into The Fire

Come on,come on,put your hands into the fire
Explain,explain,as I turn and meet the power
This time,this time,turning white and senses dire
Pull up,pull up,from one extreme to another,from the summer to the spring
From the mountain to the air,from Samaritan to sin,and it's waiting on the end
Come on,come on,put your hands into the fire
Explain,explain,as I turn and meet the power
This time,this time,turning white and senses dire
Pull up,pull up,from one extreme to another,from the summer to the spring
From the mountain to the air,from Samaritan to sin,and it's waiting on the end
And now I'm alone I'm looking out,I'm looking in way down,the lights are dimmer
Now I'm alone I'm looking out,I'm looking in way down,the lights are dimmer
Come on,come on,put your hands into the fire,come on,come on

PS：一个年轻的乐队，浓重的英伦风格，虽然没有Keane那样的人气和名气，但却依旧牢牢地抓住了我的耳朵。Keane是华丽的、浪漫的，而Thirteen Senses则是优雅的、甜蜜的，一个令人激情澎湃，一个令人柔情脉脉……

关于是不是还坚持更新这个Blog的问题困扰了我有N多天了，跟华的冷战似乎不会有一个善终的结果了，华小题大作发动的冷战，我想不是我能够左右的了，她总是希望万事都能够稳妥的进行，跟我在一起这种冒险的行为，对她的挑战似乎太大了。原以为要选择放弃的话会相当的难过，但在风信子的安慰下似乎并没有达到想象中的那种难以自制的程度。我是一个糊涂虫，这是我在经历了很多事情之后发现的事情。华在我的心中很重要，但上天又跟我开了一个如此巨大的玩笑。而更让我觉得自己可笑的是，在我心中同样具有重要位置的人，原来并没有像我想象的那样幸福的生活着。现在或许是我应该出现在她的身边的时候了，但当我真的站在了她的面前时，她和我居然都有些不知所措。我们都成了一个矛盾的整合体，不知是应该前进，还是倒退。我想一切都还是随缘吧，毕竟，有很多事如果凭理智去解决的话，大概是永远都解决不了的。

最终，对音乐的喜爱让我坚持把这个Blog做下去，而“送给华的歌”暂且还保留下去，算是过渡也好，算是纪念也罢，能存在多久就多久吧。

Fergie——London Bridges

When I come to the clubs,step aside
Pop the seeds,don't be hating me in the line
V.I.P because you know I gotta shine,give me love you long time
All my girls get down on the floor,back to back drop it down real low
I'm such a lady but I'm dancing like a ho
Because you know what,I don't give a false,so here we go
How come every time you come around
My London London Bridge want to go down
Like London London want you to go down
Like London London be going down,drinks star pouring
And my speech start slurring,everybody start looking real good
The Grey Goose got the girl feeling loose
Now I wishing that I didn't wear these shoes
It's like everytime I get up on the dude
Papparazzi put my business in the news and I'm gonna get up out my face
Before I turn around and spray your ass with mace
My lips make you want to have a taste,you got that,I got the bass

PS：又逢专辑发行的旺季，整个8月里看到了很多既熟悉又陌生的面孔，比如Paris Hilton，熟悉的是这张漂亮的脸和似乎永远都不间断的绯闻，陌生的便是她那还算不俗的音色。与Paris Hilton相比，Fergie在我这里的熟悉程度可以说差得很远，Black Eyed Peas可以说是目前比较成功的女子说唱乐团，而作为主唱的Fergie也确实有相当的实力，这是不可否认的，但最近Fergie急剧上升的人气让我觉得有些离谱，尽管我也对Fergie称得上绝对上品的舞台表现力连连赞叹，但我始终认为，如果没有Black Eyed Peas其他成员的鼎力支持，恐怕Fergie的才华也只能被埋没在欧美流行乐坛闪耀的群星的辉煌光芒之下了。

实属意外，昨天因为临时有事被朋友拉走，晚上回来已近0时，又兼一身疲惫，倒头便睡去，没有更新。

今天学些聪明，早早更新了吧，免得晚上又有不测，毕竟，人算不如天算么。

Pussycat Dolls (Feat Snoop Dogg)——Buttons

I'm telling you loosen up my buttons baby,but you keep fronting
Saying what you going to do to me,but I ain't seen nothing
I'm telling you loosen up my buttons baby,but you keep fronting
Saying what you going to do to me,but I ain't seen nothing
Hardly the type I fall for,I'm liking the physical
Don't leave me asking for more,I'm a sexy mama (Mama)
Who knows just how to get what I want and (want and)
What I want to do is spring this on you (on you)
Back up all of the things that I told you (told you)
You been saying all the right things all along
But I can't seem to get you over here to help take this off
Baby,can't you see,how these clothes are fitting on me
And the heat coming from this beat,I'm about to blow,I don't think you know
I'm telling you loosen up my buttons baby,but you keep fronting
Saying what you going to do to me,but I ain't seen nothing
I'm telling you loosen up my buttons baby,but you keep fronting
Saying what you going to do to me,but I ain't seen nothing
You say you're a big boy,but I can't agree,'cause the love you said you had
Ain't been put on me I wonder if I'm just too much for you wonder
If my kiss don't make you just wonder what I got next for you
What you want to do,take a chance to recognize that this could be yours
I can see,just like most guys that your game don't please
Baby,can't you see,how these clothes are fitting on me
And the heat coming from this beat,I'm about to blow,I don't think you know
I'm telling you loosen up my buttons baby,but you keep fronting
Saying what you going to do to me,but I ain't seen nothing
I'm telling you loosen up my buttons baby,but you keep fronting
Saying what you going to do to me,but I ain't seen nothing
I'm a make you loosen up my buttons babe,loosen up my buttons babe
Why don't you loosen up my buttons babe,loosen up my buttons babe
I'm a make you loosen up my buttons babe,loosen up my buttons babe
Why don't you loosen up my buttons babe,loosen up my buttons babe
I'm telling you loosen up my buttons baby,but you keep fronting
Saying what you going to do to me,but I ain't seen nothing
I'm telling you loosen up my buttons baby,but you keep fronting
Saying what you going to do to me,but I ain't seen nothing
I'm telling you loosen up my buttons baby,but you keep fronting
Saying what you going to do to me,but I ain't seen nothing
I'm telling you loosen up my buttons baby,but you keep fronting
Saying what you going to do to me,but I ain't seen nothing

PS：自SpiceGirls解散的继任者，来自英国的又一辣妹组合，据称在现今英伦女子乐团红透半边天，个人感觉来自英伦的女子组合似乎都是如此模式、曲风，没有太多的新鲜感，而且，如果真的拿来与SpiceGirls相比的话，我还是觉得Pussycat Dolls略欠火候，但不管怎样，Billboard前十的成绩，也还是足以证明其实力非比寻常了。

一个假期，真的是懈怠了，一直闲了就发呆，忙了就不知所以。当意识到已经很久没有更新的时候，已经是相识的第1476天了。本想及时补救，但又总觉得这7字做数的日子让人心里毛毛的。于是，索性就又丢了10天，也就是今天，1486，很让我满意的数字，86是我的生辰年，而且，这一8一6，在多数人的眼里，应该也是极吉利的数字吧？

Paris Hilton——Stars Are Blind

I don't mind spending some time,just hangin' here with you
Cus I don't find too many guys,that treat me like you do
Those other guys all wanna take me for a ride
But when I walk they talk of suicide
Some people never get beyond their stupid pride
But you can see the real me inside
And I'm satisfied,alone,even though the guys are crazy
Even though the stars are blind,if you show me real love baby
I'll show you mine,I can make it nice and naughty
Be the devil and angel too,got a heart and soul my honey
Let's see what this love can do,baby,I'm perfect for you
I could be your confidante,just one of your girlfriends
But I know that's not what you want,if tomorrow the world ends
Why shouldn't we be with the one we really love
Now tell me who have you've been dreaming of
And am I alone,Even though the guys are crazy
Even though the stars are blind,if you show me real love baby
I'll show you mine,I can make it nice and naughty
Be the devil and angel too,Got a heart and soul my honey
Let's see what this love can do,baby,I'm perfect for you
Excuse me for feeling,this moment to critical,it might be me feeling
It could get physical,Even though the guys are crazy
Even though the stars are blind,if you show me real love baby
I'll show you mine,I can make it nice and naughty,be the devil and angel too
Got a heart and soul my honey,let's see what this love can do
Let's see what love can do,baby I'm perfect for you,I'm perfect for you
Even though those guys are crazy,even though the stars are blind
Even though guys are crazy,even though the stars are blind

PS：或许在今天这个又一个开始的一天就送出一首超级尤物的歌有点不太合适，不过，想来华不会有怪罪的吧？一首让我惊讶的歌，一个令我吃惊的人，更是一个令我瞠舌的声音——从来没有想到Paris Hilton的声音会如此只好，就在N久前听说她要发行专辑的消息时，我还是对此嗤之以鼻(毕竟太多的名人给了我们太多的失望跟打击)，但当一个不经意，Paris Hilton就出人意料的等上了UK单曲榜的第五位！于是带着一份轻蔑的态度试听后，我无语了，虽然不能说是唱功了得，但至少Paris Hilton没有给我带来打击，相反，还给了一点兴奋，想来不是所有的美女都仅仅是花瓶，Paris Hilton这个全世界公认的女钻石王老五就给了我们最好的证明。
PS：加了一张Paris Hilton的照片，跟华微笑时的样子很相似哟(如果把头发换作黑色短发的话，就更，更，更相似了)！

销声匿迹了近一个月，因为考试，也因为世界杯。转眼考试已经结束了近一周的时间，回到家中也有5天之久了吧，可还是懒洋洋地不愿来写点什么，有些倦乏，有些无语，有些莫名的无所适从。凌晨的半决赛，意大利在加时赛的最后3分钟将我心爱的德国战车阻截在了决赛城外——失败，尽管知道是在所难免，可还是在它来临时心中感到了一种无以言表的伤痛——年青的一代就这样与他们心中神往的大力神杯擦肩，而像我一样年青的一代德国战车的忠实追随者也同样告别了为心爱的战车贴上4星军功章的仪式：一切又要重新开始，我的战车还是崭新的，尽管这次被意大利的元老将领们痛击地伤痕累累，但年青就是希望，就让我和我的战车一起，卧薪尝胆，从今天起静静地等待4年后的FIFA World Cup……

Maximilian Hecker——The Days Are Long and Filled With Pain

The days are long and filled with pain,we'll throw our lives away again
I've never seen in my whole life,my worst friend's sugar baby wife
Now my life is gone,won't you try to hold me tight
'Cause you'll be me and I'll be out,what will I find inside my head
The sun is gone,but there's still light down inside my mind
There's still lot for us to see in this life,today you slipped into my head
I'm waiting for you inside my bed,there ain't no sense in feeling low
I need more when you ever have to go,now my life is gone
Won't you try to hold me tight,'Cause you'll be me and I'll be out
What will I find inside my head,the sun is gone
But there's still light down inside my mind
There's still lot for us to see in this life
Some might say that I walked through that door
All my dreams are made of stupid whores,some might say that I fell from the sky
But I have got a pillow in my eye,the days are long and filled with pain
We'll throw our lives away again,I've never seen in my whole life
My worst friend's sugar baby wife,now my life is gone
Won't you try to hold me tight,'Cause you'll be me and I'll be out
What will I find inside my head,the sun is gone
But there's still light down inside my mind
There's still lot for us to see in this life

PS：今天的色彩是忧郁的，用德意志最忧伤的声音来献给心中留下了伤痕的德国战车——明天还长，尽管伴随着的是今天留下的无尽伤痛……

忙于考试的一个星期，周一晚上忙的是周二毛论考试论文的定稿，周二晚上忙的是周三军事理论的考试资料整理，周三忙的是周四的物理考核准备，总算到了周四，也就是今天晚上可以清净一下了，谢天谢地……

Shayne Ward——No Promises

Hey baby,when we are together,doing things that we love
Every time you're near I feel like I'm in heaven,feeling high
I don't want to let go, girl,I just need you to know girl
I don't wanna run away,baby you're the one I need tonight,no promises
Baby,now I need to hold you tight,I just wanna die in your arms,here tonight
Hey baby,when we are together,doing things that we love
Everytime you're near I feel like I'm in heaven,feeling high
I don't want to let go, girl,I just need you you to know girl
I don't wanna run away,baby you're the one I need tonight,no promises
Baby,now I need to hold you tight,I just wanna die in your arms
I don't want to run away,I want to stay forever,thru time and time,no promises
I don't wanna run away,I don't wanna be alone,no Promises
Baby,now I need to hold you tight,now and forever my love,no promises
I don't wanna run away,baby you're the one I need tonight,no promises
Baby,now I need to hold you tight,I just wanna die in your arms
I don't wanna run away,baby you’re the one I need tonight,no promises
Baby,now I need to hold you tight,I just wanna die in your arms,here tonight

PS：Shayne Ward，英国选秀节目The X Factor年度冠军，实力惊人，创造了英国ITV电视台自The X Factor开办以来的惊人的最高支持率——1000万。第一次听这首No Promises就喜欢上了，而且自制成了铃音用在了手机上。婉婉道来的曲风，富有磁性的嗓音，相信华也一样会喜欢。

天气一天比一天热，每天即使是坐在教室的电扇下，我也会汗流如注——没有空调的日子是如此难熬，只是距离暑假还有些时日，无奈，难耐……

The Lucksmiths——A Little Distraction

It's a lonely,lonely,lonely night,it's a lonely,lonely,lonely night
I need a little distraction to come along
A little distraction,and you're the one
It's a lonely,lonely,lonely night,such a lonely,lonely,lonely night
I need a little distraction to come along
A little distraction,and you're the one
To hold my hand and talk soft,show me all your photographs
Holidays in Italy,post a card for me from the earthquaked village
I need a little distraction to come along
A little distraction,and you're the one
I need a little distraction to come along
A little distraction,and you're the one

PS：应该怎么理解The Lucksmiths这个名字呢？幸运史密斯？知道这个乐队的时间不长，但其清新爽朗的曲风和略带伤感的嗓音却是彻彻底底地将我在一刹那征服。来自澳洲的乐队或者组合似乎都会给人以耳目一新的感觉，Savege Garden就是很好的一例。简单的歌词，优美的意境，A Little Distraction，真的是百听不厌，只可惜，在国内似乎人们在关注的却从来不是这样的声音——就像优秀的Micheal Learn To Rock一样，令人难忘的歌多又多，但却直到其创作了那首所谓的张学友经典制作吻别的英文翻版Take Me To Your Heart后才真的让国人知道了他们，无语……

今天是端午，祝福的短信发出又收到，似乎这已经成为了一种习惯……

想着那位N年前投身汨罗江的老前辈，感觉自己与他还是有几分缘分的：N年前他投江时是为了国破家亡，心情悲愤到了极点才选择如此了断，而我，在N年后的今天，心情也有点低落，不过，想来我这个人，恐怕能让我产生了结自己生命的事物还没有让我碰到……

Queen——I Was Born To Love You

I was born to love you with every single beat of my heart
Yes,I was born to take care of you
Every single day,I was born to love you with every single beat of my heart
Yes,I was born to take care of you
Every single day of my life,you are the one for me
I am the man for you,you were made for me,you're my ecstasy
If I was give every opportunity,I'd kill for your love,so take a chance with me
Let me romance with you,I'm caught in a dream,and my dream's come true
It's so hard to believe,this is happening to me,an amazing feeling
Comin' through,I was born to love you with every single beat of my heart
Yes,I was born to take care of you,every single day of my life,I wanna love you
I love every little thing about you,I wanna love you,love you,love you
Born to love you,born to love you,yes,I was born to love you
Born to love you,born to love you,every single day of my life,an amazing feeling
Comin' through,I was born to love you with every single beat of my heart
Yes,I was born to take care of you,every single day of my life
Yes I was born to love you,every single day of my life,go,I love you babe
Yes,I was born to love you,I wanna love you,love you,love you,I wanna love you
I get so lonely,lonely,lonely,lonely,yeah,I want to love you,yeah,give it to me

PS：喜欢Queen也算是有些年头，尤其是在有点怀旧情愫高昂的时候……

很讨厌最近的网络状况，总是或多或少地出现这样那样的意想不到。已经很久不能登陆PostShow，昨天甚至连Gmail都不能登陆。我不喜欢带着有色眼镜看待任何事物，但似乎网络的这种不稳定的情况是从年后转到电信的网络上以后便开始出现的：虽然不想说，但或许所谓的“北方网通，南方电信”的说法恐怕不仅仅是只两家ISP的势力范围……

Linkin Park & Adema——Giving In

Will you walk me,to the edge again,shaking,lonely,and I am drinking again
Woke up tonight and no one's here with me,I'm giving in to you
Take me under,I'm giving in to you,I'm dying tonight,I'm giving in to you
Watch me crumble,I'm giving in to you,I'm crying tonight,I'm giving in to you
Caught up in life,losing all my friends
Family has tried to heal all my addictions
Tragic it seems to be alone again,I'm giving in to you,take me under
I'm giving in to you,I'm dying tonight,I'm giving in to you,watch me crumble
I'm giving in to you,I'm crying tonight,I'm giving in to you
I look forward to dying tonight,drink 'till I'm myself,life's harder every day
The stress has got me,I'm giving in,giving in,giving in
No,take me under,I'm killing all the pain,I'm dying tonight
I'm sick of all that faith,watch me crumble,I'm killing all the pain
I'm crying tonight,I'm giving in to you,take me under,I'm giving in to you
I'm dying tonight,I'm giving in to you,watch me crumble,I'm giving in to you
I'm crying tonight,I'm giving in to you,take me under,I'm giving in to you
I'm dying tonight,I'm giving in to you

PS：对Linkin Park的喜爱可以说是自始至终的，今天又偶然的机会通过Linkin Park而知道了Ameda这么个名字。在网上搜罗一番，跟Ameda有关的歌却只找到了这么一首能正经试听并下载的。有点郁闷。仔细查找了一下跟Ameda有关的资料和评论，发现了不少Ameda的Fans，可惜的是，他们却多少有些孤芳自赏的味道——都在庆幸着自己如何得到了一张又一张Ameda的CD，却没有一个人把他们制作大包给他人分享。继续郁闷。很久没有逛音像店了，回头一定要去好好找一找这个能够被Linkin Park看中的却在国内不是很出名的Ameda乐队。

今天记点什么呢？阴沉沉的天扰得心里乱糟糟的，很不舒服。刚来到大学的时候，一直觉得自己与学校所在的这个陌生的城市是缺少缘分的，可如今，随着时间的流逝，渐渐地，我发现虽然我依旧不喜欢这城这地，但却有觉得我跟它似乎还真有些许丝丝的联系：我喜欢雨，这个城市恰好多雨；我讨厌雪，这个城市在我来的这一个冬，飘过的雪只有一次，而且是很小很小的一次。但我还是说我不喜欢它，因为它多雨，但却不是我喜欢家乡的绵绵细雨。

心结，我想，这应该就是我的心结吧……

Darren Hayes——California

I got a cottage with a sea view,I got a regular summer tan
I've been working up the courage to call you all year
There is nothing I can say,there are no good words left anyway
Besides people are cruel and the world still moves without you
Welcome to my Californian home,you don't have to call me you can leave when you want
There's a picture by my bed,there's a light in your eyes,I don't know,well I don't know
Why you still feel alone,and we were dying from the get go
I was dreaming but you never believed,I was trying to fit myself in the spaces between
And you were kind and sometimes crue,you said all the world's love couldn't satisfy you
And nothing could have hurt me as much as the truth,darling,welcome to my Californian home
You don't have to call me you can leave when you want
There's a picture by my bed,there's a light in your eyes
I don't know,tell me cause I want to find out
Do you still feel alone,love is illusive when you search for it
Don't I know,happiness sometimes it just creeps in
Don't I know,I'm going crazy,I've been wondering
Do you still feel alone,I need to find,some kind of peace of mind
I need to find,I got a cottage with a sea view
I got a regular summer tan,I know that I deserve more
But I still want you,welcome to my Californian home
You don't have to call me you can leave when you want
There's a picture by my bed,there's a light in your eyes,I don't know
Tell me 'cause I want to find out,do you still feel
Welcome to my California,I need to find
Even though I'm not good for you,some kind of peace of mind
There's a part of me still waiting for you,I need to find
Welcome to my happy ending,I need to find
Even though it's fun contending,some kind of peace of mind
I know,I know you can't look back,you can never go back
Welcome to my Californian home,you can never go back
Welcome to my Californian home,I know you can never go back
Welcome to my Californian home,I know,you can never go back
I know I need to find out,do you still feel,welcome to my Californian home,I need to find
Even though I'm no good for you,some kind of peace of mind
Deep inside there's a piece of me,there's a piece of me
Still waiting for you to come home,welcome to my Californian home,I need to find
I know you can never look back,you can never look back again
Some kind of peace of mind,but tell me 'cause I want to find out
Do you still feel alone,do you still feel alone

不知道是我想得太多，还是某些人太有心计？

Ronan Keating——She Believes In Me

While she lays sleeping,I stay out late at night
And play my songs,and sometimes all the nights can be so long
And it's good when I finally make it home,all alone,while she lays dreaming
I try to get undressed without the light
And quietly she says how was your night
And I come to her and say,it was all right,and I hold her tight
And she believes in me,I'll never know just what she sees in me
I told her someday if she was my girl
I could change the world,with my little songs
I was wrong,but she has faith in me,and so I go on trying faithfully
And who knows maybe on some special night,if my song is right
I can find a way,while she waits,I stumble to the kitchen for a bite
Then I see my old guitar in the night,just waiting for me like a secret friend
And there's no end,while she lays crying
I fumble with a melody or two,and I'm torn between the things that I should do
And she says to wake her up when I am through,god her love is true
And she believes in me,I'll never know just what she sees in me
I told her someday if she was my girl,I could change the world
With my little songs,I was wrong,but she has faith in me
And so I go on trying faithfully,and who knows maybe on some special night
If my song is right,I can find a way,while she waits,while she waits for me

PS：下了一整天的雨，我也借此为由请假一天在家。心情不是很好，有些憋闷。这一周快要过完了，继续延续这一周组合单飞歌手的主题，今天的这位想来应该是不需要介绍的，BoyZone的主唱，也是英国人气相当旺的帅哥，我个人不是很喜欢他，但对他的那首When You Say Noting At All却是情有独钟：在我看来，一个歌手，能够让自己的作品首首精彩靠的是惊人的实力，而如果仅仅需要证明自己能够成功的实力的话，我想有一首就足够了，而Ronan在我的眼中就是这样的一位歌手。

C语言程序设计上机课在今天算是告一段落，C语言的课程也已经全部讲完，想来在这个学期结束后，我也将或是暂时或是永远的告别这门课程了——以后用VB和C++大概要多一些，C恐怕用到的时候将是少之又少了。虽然从上个学期开始便偶尔会看一下Java方面的书籍，但直到今天还是觉得自己对与Java知之甚少。自勉之，在这片我还十分热爱的领域里——虽然我自知自己以后在这一领域发展的可能性相当小——继续奋斗，继续努力，加油！

Brian Littrell——Welcome Home (You)

When I left home to be who I am,some people said no way,but I laid it all down
Gave everything,in my head rang the words,that my father said
You're never far,I will be where you are,and when you come to me
I will open my arms,welcome home you,I know you by name
How do you do,I shine because of you today,so come and sit down
Tell me how you are,I know son,it's good just see your face
When I look at you,holding my heart,I will give to you all that I have
Son I know there'll be times,you'll feel all alone,I will share with you
The words my father said,you are never far,I will be where you are
And when you come to me,you can bet I will open my arms
Welcome home you,I know you by name,how do you do
I shine because of you today,so come and sit down,tell me how you are
I know son, it's good just to see your face,see I've been waiting for that day
Just to feel your warm embrace,your love has shown
That I will never be alone,for you will welcome me home
I'll forever be for you will say to me
Welcome home you,I know you by name,how do you do
I shine because of you today,so come and sit down,tell me how you are
I know son,it's good just to see your face
When I left home to be who I am,some people said no way

PS：突然发现这一周的前两天里送给华的歌都是出自组合歌手的单飞专辑，于是索性这一周接下来的几天就再送上些组合中单飞的歌手的歌给华好了。周一的Ashley的出身可以说算是名不见经传，昨天的Nick的出身则应该算是相当显赫，那么，今天的这位Brian Littrell又是何许人呢？或许Brian并不很为人知，但如果提及Brian的“大家庭”BackstreetBoys的话，我想但凡是对欧美流行乐略知一二的人就一定会知晓。Nick Carter的同门师兄弟，其实力我想自报出Brian的家门后也就无须我在多言了吧？

浑浑噩噩，我应该是一个不喜欢重复生活的人，所以，一直以来我都不喜欢按部就班的学校生活。小学的时候，因为不甘平淡，所以我制造了联名上书，弹劾了我们班的辅导员，而自己也因此被班主任狠批特批了很久；初中的时候，因为不甘乏味，所以我成了我们学校最头疼的优等生——逃课最多的年级前3名，而且带领着全校最乱的班级令学校3年被迫给我们撤换了3个班主任并安排年级主任和教务主任为我们上课；而到了高中，我终于老实地度过了3年，大概也正是因为没有了刺激，单调让我每天犹如行尸走肉一般，而最终也在没有了曾经辉煌的傲人成绩。转眼到了大学，依旧按部就班，总感觉自己一天比一天觉得疲惫……我，只愿去面对新鲜而充满活力的生活，新鲜是激情的动力，活力是精神饱满的印证；我，不愿去走被安排好的每一步路，即使那是完美的路。

或许真的就像多数人说的那样，当我离开了学校后，大概才会怀念校园生活吧。

Nick Lachey——What's Left Of Me

Watch my life,pass me by
In the rear view mirror,pictures frozen in time,are becoming clearer
I don't wanna waste another day,stuck in the shadow of my mistakes
Cause I want you And I feel you,crawling underneath my skin
Like a hunger like a burning,to find a place I've never been
Now I'm broken and I'm fading,I'm half the man I thought I would be
But you can have what's left of me,I've been dying inside
Little by little,no where to go but going out of my mind
In endless circles,running from myself until
You gave me a reason for standing still,and I want you and I feel you
Crawling underneath my skin,like a hunger like a burning
To find a place I’ve never been,now I'm broken and I'm fading
I'm half the man I thought I would be,but you can have what's left of me
Falling faster,barely breathing,give me something to believe in
Tell me it's not all in my head,take what's left of this man
Make me whole once again,cause I want you and I feel you
Crawling underneath my skin,like a hunger like a burning
To find a place I’ve never been,now I'm broken and I'm fading
I'm half the man I thought I would be,you can have all that's left
What's left of me,I've been dying inside you see
I'm going outta my mind,outta my mind,I'm just running in circles all the time
Will you take what's left,will you take what's left
Will you take what's left,just running in circles in my mind
Will you take what's left,will you take what's left
Will you take what's left,take what's left of me

PS：在近些年的欧美流行乐坛，98 Degrees的名字是不能不提的——第一次凭借着超人的实力而签约在黑人顶尖厂牌Motown旗下的白人组合——一曲I DO让太多太多的人记住了这个拥有着4副抒情好嗓音的组合。但似乎已经成为了一个规律，组合不长久，2002年成了众多98 Degrees忠实歌迷最伤心的一年，因为在这一年98 Degrees宣布解散。也就是在前不久，作为主唱的Nick Lachey带着他单飞后的最新专辑What's Left Of Me回来了。今天送给华听的就是这首Nick新专辑中的同名主打歌，尽管被我收入藏品中已经有些时日，但一直因为其不是很吉利的创作背景——Nick失恋后的作品——我不是很愿意送给华，但昨天送给华了Ashley Parker Angel的歌，今天想来也不能再把Nick藏着了，因为，在我看来，Ashley的Soundtrack To Your Life和Nick的What's Left Of Me必将成为今年年度最佳专辑的最有力竞争者——从主观上我更推崇Ashley的Soundtrack To Your Life——我想知道华在听过之后究竟会是怎样的看法。

最近的Spaces一直登陆不了，据DRL上的虾米们说是因为有关部门因MS的Live站点的手续问题而把其相关的站点都给封了的原因。虽然不知道究竟是不是这样——MS也会手续出现问题——但我还是那句话：永远不要挑战政府的耐心。

Ashley Parker Angel——Soundtrack To Your Life

If you can hear me,and know that im right here
I heard your heartbeat,it took away the fear,cuz my life is sliding
I tried to ride the wave,it came down crashing,it's time to start again
Backwards to go forward,left at every corner
Been there and back again,and when the music ends,your life is a flashback
A question, a photograph,a statement,a story,a struggle,a chance to laugh
Cuz if you don't laugh you cry,a last crescendo when you die
So hit the rewind and listen,it's the playback,the soundtrack to your life
Your first step,your last breathe,eveything's been planned
There's questions and answers you'll never understand,I hold on but let go
Give you room to breathe,remember the best things,were never mine to keep
Starting at the ending you won't break while your bending
Been there and back agian,and when the music ends,your life is a flashback
A question, a photograph,a statement,a story,a struggle,a chance to laugh
Cuz if you don't laugh you cry,a last crescendo when you die
So hit the rewind and listen,it's the playback,the soundtrack to your life
Soundtrack to your life,that it goes by like a bullet,and my name
It may be different than yours,but we are the same
Neat up broken back for more ill be dragging my own ass off the floor
I throw myself right in it,whats the point if you dont live it
If you can hear me,and know that im right here
I heard your heartbeat,it took away the fear,your life is a flashback
A question,a photograph,a statement,a story,a struggle,A chance to laugh
Cuz if you don't laugh you cry,a last crescendo when you die
So hit the rewind and listen,it's the playback,the soundtrack to your life

PS：因为最近自己的两个Blog都出现了登陆问题，所以，更新一直都难以进行，有点恼怒。今天Spaces总算是成功的登陆，但BlogBus却依旧是能够进入主页，却无论如何都无法进入管理界面，无奈。有点突发奇想，今天送给华这首Ashley Parker Angel最新专辑的主打歌Soundtrack To Your Life。我不知道华看到Ashley Parker Angel这个名字然后再听了Soundtrack To Your Life后会是什么反应，或许会和我的很多朋友一样很吃惊吧——相当女性化的名字，相当男性化的嗓音——不惊讶才怪。第一次知道Ashley Parker Angel这个名字因为O-Town这个当年为打败'N Sync而组建的5人组，作为主唱兼创作的Ashley给我留下了非常深刻的印象：冷冷但清澈的眼神，集Jon Bon Jovi、Bryan Adams、Richard Marx、Brian Molko四位乐坛老将优点的嗓音，很是完美的感觉。虽然因为乐队的第二张唱片出现的种种问题，乐队最终走向了解散，Ashley也从此在世人的眼前消失，但可喜的是，在沉寂了多年之后，年初的时候，Ashley再一次复出歌坛，并在一复出就荣登Billboard前十位，并获得Hot Shot Debut的骄人成绩。在目前的Billboard最佳专辑的投票中，Ashley的复出专辑Soundtrack To Your Life一路飘红，并大有超过Nick Lachey的What's Left Of Me之势。

最近关注了一下央视的青年歌手大赛，个人感觉颇具水准，没有玷污央视作为国内媒体领头羊的名声。算是巧合，今天打算送给华的歌被一个选手在比赛中演唱——BillBoard的上榜歌曲，个人认为是R&B风格中的上乘作品，听起来清新自然，虽然歌词带着忧伤，但聆听起来却让人感到了一种积极向上的感觉。喜欢的曲风，喜欢的基调，送给喜欢的人，又是一段不错的机缘巧合。

Ne-Yo——So Sick

Gotta change my answering machine
Now that I'm alone,cuz right now it says that we
Can't come to the phone,and I know it makes no sense
Cus you walked out the door,but it's the only way I hear your voice,anymore
It's ridiculous,it's been months for some reason I just
Can't get over us,and I'm stronger than this
No more walking 'round with ma head down,I'm so over being blue
Crying over you,and I'm so sick of love songs,so tired of tears,I'm so sick
So done with wishing,you were still here,said I'm so sick of love songs
So sad and slow,I'm so sick,so why can't I turn off the radio
Gotta fix that calender I had,that's marked July 15th
Cuz since there's no more you,there's no more anniversery,ain't no more
I'm so fed up with my thoughts of you
And your memories,and now every song reminds me of what used to be
That's the reason,I'm so sick of love songs,so tired of tears,I'm so sick
So done with wishing,you were still here,said I'm so sick of love songs
So sad and slow,I'm so sick,so why can't I turn off the radio
Let's go,leave me alone,tird of dealing with the frustration
Leave me alone,Stupid love song,same song even when I change the station
Don't make me think about her smile
She's crafty,or having my first child,then lettin go
Turning of the radio,time to let go if your with me turn off the radio
Cuz I'm so sick of love songs
So tired of tears,I'm so sick,so done with wishing,she were still here
Said I'm so sick of love songs,so sad and slow,I'm so sick
So why can't I turn off the radio,and I'm so sick of love songs
So tired of tears,I'm so sick,so done with wishing
She were still here,said I'm so sick of love songs,so sad and slow,I'm so sick
Why can't I turn off the radio,cuz I'm so sick of love songs,so tired of tears
So done with wishing,you are still here,said I'm so sick of love songs
We so sick,so sad and slow,we so sick,so why can't I turn off the radio
