Foals《A Knife
In The Ocean》
有些電影導演很喜歡賣弄『哲學』的技巧，
編了一些令人摸不著頭腦的劇情，稱之為深度，
於是很多觀眾又會趨之若鶩，
不但能夠看得懂導演表達的『深思』，
更讚嘆其『功力』和『偉大』。
不單電影如是，連武俠小說亦如是，
金鏞寫了一本三百頁的小說，
有些可愛的讀者就用了三千頁去研究作者的心思路程，
比作者還要清楚究竟作者想表達些甚麼………
抽象派藝術如是，行為派藝術如是，
對於這些現象，鄙人絕對是門外漢，
就像看了幾齣『哈利波特』電影，
我根本看不懂在說些甚麼.........
近期有一首歌曲亦是如此，
樂隊名稱是『FOALS』，歌名《A Knife
In The Ocean》，
歌詞內容看得出英文造詣很高
(英國人寫本國的語文，當然有其深度)
但本人就真的不大理解正確的翻譯，
只是朦朧地知道是一種對海洋所喚起的反應。
愛聽歌曲的人與愛聽音樂的人絕對不同，
因為有些歌曲以歌詞取勝，
明明是旋律稱不上動聽，但仍然感動無數心靈，
這些聽眾很少會明白到為甚麼愛聽音樂的人，
會被一段沒有歌詞的旋律感動得熱淚滿眶!
《A Knife In The Ocean》當然地很有Rock的味道，
隨著電子樂的日漸普及，
現代歌曲很在乎創作者對電子音色的觸角，
這種觸角牽涉到天才和天份，
Foals樂隊都擁有這種天賦，
雖然不大明瞭歌詞的意思，
但那種意會加上音色的表達，
令到《A Knife In The Ocean》這首歌曲很有魅力。

"A Knife In The Ocean" 歌詞
When I come to
walk the line the fire may come but we'll be just fine
When I go to walk the line the fire, it will come but we'll be just fine
Mouth of the ocean, be well spoken, watch your P's and Q's
Now that we're older, the future is colder but what is there to do?
I'll walk the line, I'll be just fine, I'll be right back on time
The fire is coming but we'll outrun it, we'll never be undone
Oh, what came of the things we once believed?
Oh, all lost to the depths of a hungry sea
Oh, what came of the things we once believed?
Oh, all lost to the depths of a hungry sea
And now our parents are long departed, who can finish the songs they started?
Bodies are broken but it's just a token of what is surely to come
Unstitch the suture, please pause the future, so I can collect my things
The fire is coming but we'll outrun it, we'll never be undone
Oh, what came of the things we once believed?
Oh, all lost to the depths of a hungry sea
Oh, what came of the things we once believed?
Oh, all lost to the depths of a hungry sea
When I go to walk the line the fire, it comes but I'll be just fine
Oh, what came of the things we once believed?
Oh, all lost to the depths of a hungry sea
Oh, all lost and, oh, all lost, to the depths of a hungry sea
Oh, all lost to the depths of a hungry sea
All that's left, all that's left is the echo of a roaring sea
Long gone, long gone to the trace of a memory
What came of the things I once believed?
All that's left, all that's left is the trace of a memory
When I go to walk the line the fire, it will come but we'll be just fine
Mouth of the ocean, be well spoken, watch your P's and Q's
Now that we're older, the future is colder but what is there to do?
I'll walk the line, I'll be just fine, I'll be right back on time
The fire is coming but we'll outrun it, we'll never be undone
Oh, what came of the things we once believed?
Oh, all lost to the depths of a hungry sea
Oh, what came of the things we once believed?
Oh, all lost to the depths of a hungry sea
And now our parents are long departed, who can finish the songs they started?
Bodies are broken but it's just a token of what is surely to come
Unstitch the suture, please pause the future, so I can collect my things
The fire is coming but we'll outrun it, we'll never be undone
Oh, what came of the things we once believed?
Oh, all lost to the depths of a hungry sea
Oh, what came of the things we once believed?
Oh, all lost to the depths of a hungry sea
When I go to walk the line the fire, it comes but I'll be just fine
Oh, what came of the things we once believed?
Oh, all lost to the depths of a hungry sea
Oh, all lost and, oh, all lost, to the depths of a hungry sea
Oh, all lost to the depths of a hungry sea
All that's left, all that's left is the echo of a roaring sea
Long gone, long gone to the trace of a memory
What came of the things I once believed?
All that's left, all that's left is the trace of a memory
