《0528》四號日記─Half-Gifts
Half-Gifts
Milk & Kisses
Cocteaus Twins
1996
It’s an old game, my love
When you can’t have me, you want me
Because you know that you’re not risking anything
Intimacy is when we’re in the same place at the same time
Dealing honestly with how we feel, and who we really are
That’s what grown-ups do
That is mature thinking
Well I’m still a junkie for it
It takes me out of my aloneness
But this relationship cannot sustain itself
Intimacy is when we’re in the same place at the same time
Dealing honestly with how we feel, and who we really are
That’s what grown-ups do
That is mature thinking
I just have to know how to be in the process
Of creating things in a better way
And it hurts but it’s a lie that I can’t handle it
I still have a world of me-ness to fulfill
I still care about this planet
I am still connected to nature and to my dreams for myself
I have my friends, my family
I have myself
I still have me
I have my friends, my family
I have myself
I still have me
兩年前KKBOX能搜尋4AD、Matador、Rough Trade、XL四廠音樂起
我每天瘋狂點選4AD相關樂團作品線上收聽
Dead Can Dance、Red House Painters等等
不過很快就失去興趣
其實KKBOX能找到的4AD專輯大概都已陳列在我的CD架上
所以在線上如遇舊識的感覺很快就散去
今天偶然瀏覽
竟發現當時忽略了4AD大台柱其一的Cocteau Twins
女主唱Elizabeth Fraser吟唱幾乎沒有意義的歌詞
如樂器的歌聲現在聽起來依然非常震撼
可能因為市場需要
Cocteau Twins後期作品流行多了
王菲也挑了幾首翻唱成自己的專輯歌曲
包含將這張Milk & Kisses的Rilkean Heart編作「懷念」
不過「懷念」的編曲
實際上更接近Cocteau Twins單曲Twinlights中Rilkean Heart的acoustic版本
我也喜歡Twinlights中acoustic版本的Half-Gifts
比擬Milk & Kisses版本就是多一股親密的溫柔
年紀到了
不時被介紹這個認識那位
應答時常感無奈
因為對於關係
我無法放棄心境的流浪與自由
更不能接受對方期望比親密捷足先登的承諾
關係需要被傾聽
渴望被了解
Intimacy is when we’re in the same place at the same time dealing honestly with how we feel, and who we really are.
這個定義比任何教科書上的敘述都好
