Open Your Eyes vs. C'était un Rendezvous

Open Your Eyes – Snow Patrol
All this feels strange and untrue
And I won't waste a minute without you
My bones ache, my skin feels cold
And I'm getting so tired and so old

The anger swells in my guts
And I won't feel these slices and cuts
I want so much to open your eyes
'Cause I need you to look into mine

Tell me that you'll open your eyes [x4]

Get up, get out, get away from these liars
'Cause they don't get your soul or your fire
Take my hand, knot your fingers through mine
And we'll walk from this dark room for the last time

Every minute from this minute now
We can do what we like anywhere
I want so much to open your eyes
'Cause I need you to look into mine

Tell me that you'll open your eyes [x8]

All this feels strange and untrue
And I won't waste a minute without you


不記得是因為聽網路電台播的Chasing Cars或這首Open Your Eyes才買了Snow Patrol的專輯,反正兩首我都很愛聽,但那時當然沒想過幾年後會因此發現一部曾經引發爭議的微電影。

記得第一次看Open Your Eyes的MV很傻眼,怎麼有這麼混的一鏡到底?最後還出現那麼復古的人在擁抱,飄逸衣服打哪兒來的……之前就只是單純定義那是一支偷懶的MV。今天,天外飛來的好奇心帶著我確定了這是清晨時分的巴黎街道,而且MV其實是截取自1976年的微電影C'était un Rendezvous (It was a date.)。現在,我會說真是超酷的影像、音樂結合。

忍受著引擎高速運轉、不斷換檔、輪胎磨地的噪音,看完了8分多鐘的原始影片,見識了欲望的橫衝直撞與振耳欲聾。熱戀一開始都是望眼欲穿、激情澎湃,能否攜手走到最後就不一定了。
