這是兩年前我看〔I am Your Man〕紀錄片中的一段, Rufus Wainwright唱著這位老詩人Leonard Cohen 所做的歌。 歌詞憶往,講的是老詩人年輕時在紐約Chelsea Hotel的一場聚會中, 遇見一位令他驚豔的女子,女子言行獨具,觸發他對美的感受,甚至成為他的謬思女神。 而後,兩人當然無疾以終,但交會時互放的光亮,讓Leonard Cohen 寫下了這首歌。 如此吟唱生命中的偶然,美麗又有令人追念。 而Rufus Wainwright唱得溫柔清越!是我在這部紀錄片中No.2的 最愛。 http://tw.youtube.com/watch?v=f4rQ03pl2Og&feature=related CHELSEA HOTEL /Leonard Cohen I remember you well in the Chelsea Hotel, you were talking so brave and so sweet, giving me head on the unmade bed, while the limousines wait in the street. Those were the reasons and that was New York, we were running for the money and the flesh. And that was called love for the workers in song probably still is for those of them left. Ah but you got away, didn't you babe, you just turned your back on the crowd, you got away, I never once heard you say, I need you, I don't need you, I need you, I don't need you and all of that living around. I remember you well in the Chelsea Hotel you were famous, your heart was a legend. You told me again you preferred handsome men but for me you would make an exception. And clenching your fist for the ones like us who are oppressed by the figures of beauty, you fixed yourself, you said, "Well never mind, we are ugly but we have the music." And then you got away, didn't you babe... I don't mean to suggest that I loved you the best, I can't keep track of each fallen robin. I remember you well in the Chelsea Hotel, that's all, I don't even think of you that often. |
