You


it is not the ending that makes it so regrettable
but the imagination of happiness with which we could have shared

you are such a beautiful girl, priya

擁抱 就是現在



不是說只聽Indie不聽Pop song
只少較少聽而已
這是我最近很喜歡的一首歌

擁抱 就是現在
至少我為你能做得到

Worried Shoes

 

from the soundtrack of the movie
 'Where The Wild Things Are'


A frail child beset by a seemingly endless parade of illnesses, Mr. Sendak was reared, he said afterward, in a world of looming terrors: the Depression; World War II; the Holocaust, in which many of his European relatives perished; the seemingly infinite vulnerability of children to danger. He experienced the kidnapping of the Lindbergh baby in 1932 as a personal torment: if that fair-haired, blue-eyed princeling could not be kept safe, what certain peril lay in store for him, little Murray Sendak, in his humble apartment in Bensonhurst?
............

As Mr. Sendak grew up — lower class, Jewish, gay — he felt permanently shunted to the margins of things. “All I wanted was to be straight so my parents could be happy,” he told The New York Times in a 2008 interview. “They never, never, never knew.”

I believe for every great artist there must be sort of pain or melancholia behind him/her so that he/she could write such an amazing story as an outlet ...

一個人在台北‧去年聖誕

在淡水漁人碼頭
一隻望着河岸沉思的狗


忠考敦化站外
被囚禁的樹

咖啡小塵紙貨店
絡於有機會看到wei*的作品
最近在西門紅樓開了自己的店子
真好! 這是咖啡小熊的網站:

西門紅樓創意市集
可能是因為聖誕節
好像檔子不夠多


 華山創意文化區
吃着美味的熱狗
欣賞美好的音樂表演
這就是公共空間




 捷運裡的創意


喜歡台北這個城市。

Mask




Almodovar's new film "La piel que habito" is shocking but amazing!
What makes the movie so enchanting and what amazes me most is the role "Vera/Vicente" played by the lead actress Elena Anaya. Really charming ... especically when she is in her mask,
The soundtrack is also great!! I think I should buy it especially my favorite singer's Chris Garneau's song "Between the bars" is included.
Other songs are great too!
Bravo!
"En Mi Peil"

Der Weg von hier, sad ist Mein Ziel



Der Weg von hier
sad ist Mein Ziel

 -- F, Kafka


離開這裡
那就是我的目的

-- 卡夫卡

離開這裡
我該到哪裡去

Where should I go
What should I do

Music for tourists


Chris Garneau's "Music for tourists" is finally right here one on my desk!
It's probably one of the best CD I have ever listened to.
Just perfect in depicting the the lonliness and melancholy of traveler ...


Yes.
Wish you were here.

Saturday - Chris Garneau



How long can a saturday
keep me name all the same things?
i love all things i said i love
but i forget why i'm still standing

It is over ... today



從今天以後 沒有人告訴我
我該去那裡 我該做什麼

今天終於再看完 "Essays in Love"

怎麼說呢
書裡面的是一段關係的反思
但這些反思有很多都不是我能感受的
因為我呢 ... 好像沒有開始便完結了
完結是第一次我們見面的那一刻

 "Love me!" And for what reason?
I had only the usual paltry, insuffiicient excuse:
Because I love you ...


de Botton 說得對
"I love you!" 是永遠不足夠的
是卑微的

又想起

A short film about love 的對白:

"I love you."
"There is no such thing."
"There is."

有沒有
不是一個爭辯的問題
因為她不相信


因為她不相信

Al Otro Lado Del Rio



Al Otro Lado Del Rio

Jorge Drexle

Clavo mi remo en el agua
Llevo tu remo en el mio.
我將槳划入水中
將你的槳握在手中。
Creo que he vista una luz
al otro lado del rio.
我相信我看到那道光芒
就在河的彼岸。
El dia le ira pudiendo
poco a poco al frio.
這天對他來說
將一點一點變冷。
Creo que he vista una luz
al otro lado del rio.
我相信我看到那道光芒就在河的彼岸。
Sobre todo, creo que
no todo esta perdido.
最重要的是我深信
我尚未失去所有。
Tanta lagrima, tanta lagrima y yo,
soy yn vaso vacio……
許多淚、我流過的許多淚
足夠裝滿一樽空玻璃杯
Oigo una voz que me llama,
casi un suspiro:
我聽到一個聲音呼喚著我
像是聲嘆息:
Rema, rema, rema-a Rema, rema, rema-a
划、划、向前划去En esta orilla del mundo
lo que nos es presa es baldio.
去那未被禁錮的世界邊境,發現新大陸。
Creo que he visto una luz
al otro lado del rio.
我相信我看到那道光芒就在河的彼岸。
Yo, muy serio, voy remando,
y muy adentro, sonrio.
我努力的划過去
越來越深入,我笑著。
Creo que he visto una luz
al otro lado del rio.
我相信我看到那道光芒
就在河的彼岸。

Heaven's on Fire




from Album "Clinging To A Scheme" by The Radio Dept
** Link for offical free download of the song

super cool music with a fanstatic album cover!!

"People see rock and roll as, as youth culture, and when youth culture becomes monopolised by big business, what are the youth to do? Do you, do you have any idea?
I think we should destroy the bogus capitalist process that is destroying youth culture."


"When I look at you, heaven's on fire
I wish I didn't know you better, but it's pointless
One look at you, and heaven's on fire

When I look at you, I reach for a piano wire
Fighting to keep it together, but it's pointless
One look at you and heaven's on fire,
Heaven's on fire


It seems like everyone is on your side
We're outnumbered by those who take no pride
In constantly moving against the tide
Charlatans just out of reach and out of time

I'm a little like you,
Ugly on the inside
But while I dive into the gritty
You just stand by
When I look at you
Heaven's on fire
Heaven's on fire

It seems like everyone is on your side
We're outnumbered by those who take no pride
In constantly moving against the tide
Charlatans just out of reach and out of time"

old post: mujer contra mujer

Inspired by Mecano's song "mujer contra mujer" and one of Zheng Danyi (鄭單衣) 's poem <而我> from <夏天的翅膀>. Both protraited an image of "throwing stones" with a few stokes and that I tried to 'put the two together". Obviously, it was an unsuccessful attempt and I spoiled the two master pieces ... #So thankful that I found Mecano and this beautiful song. Don't know much about this Spainish pop band actually, just browsed on net and somewhere it is said that this band also composed songs on many controversial social issues, e.g. Dalai Lama, aids. But for creating such a meaningful, peotic piece, I'm convinced that it's a great band and really deserves much respect, no matter from heterosexuals, bisexuals or homosexuals. The song was composed in the eighties. But surely it is also a song of all time. Ah, it suddenly reminded me of the current debates on Domestic Violence Ordinance ... Finally, who stopped the doves flying? ................ 不要再向她們(或他們)扔石頭了。
