terminology

痾啊整個曬傷刺痛完奇癢難耐
然後就想到了北川景子的"刷刷"(我是很需要刷背)

結果變成了earworm揮之不去 = =...

於是偶然找到了一堆名詞術語的英文
---

原來日本人還是發得出"刷"這個捲舌音的

---
Meme
(模因): an idea, behavior or style that spreads from person to person within a culture. While genes transmit biological information, memes are said to transmit ideas and belief information.


Earworm
(洗腦歌): a loan translation of the German Ohrwurm, is a portion of a song or other music that repeats compulsively within one's mind, put colloquially as "music being stuck in one's head."

Hook(記憶點): a musical idea, often a short riff, passage, or phrase, that is used in popular music to make a song appealing and to "catch the ear of the listener". The term generally applies to popular music, especially rock music, hip hop, dance music, and pop. In these genres, the hook is often found in, or consists of, the chorus. For example, the "hook" of Beethoven's Fifth Symphony could be said to consist in the distinctive three G notes followed by an E-flat.(登登登 等~~)

Motif(動機): a shortmusical idea, a salient recurring figure, musical fragment or succession of notes that has some special importance in or is characteristic of a composition. ex: Sabre Dance (Fa Do Fa Do Fa Do Fa Do...)

Groove(律動): the sense of propulsive rhythmic "feel" or sense of "swing" created by the interaction of the music played by a band's rhythm section (drums, electric bass or double bass, guitar, and keyboards). ex: bass drum on beats 1 and 3 and snare drum on beats 2 and 4

Fill(過門): a short musical passage, riff, or rhythmic sound which helps to sustain the listener's attention during a break between thephrases of a melody. (我只知道The White Stripes的鼓不會有過門...)

Lick(潤飾): a stock pattern or phrase consisting of a short series of notes that is used in solos and melodic lines.

Ostinato(頑固低音): (derived from Italian: "stubborn", compare English: obstinate) a motif or phrase which is persistently repeated in the same musical voice. An ostinato is always a succession of equal sounds, wherein each note always has the same weight or stress. The repeating idea may be a rhythmic pattern, part of a tune, or a complete melody in itself. ex: Johann Pachelbel's Canon

Counterpoint(對位法): the relationship between two or more voices that are independent in contour and rhythm and are harmonically interdependent (polyphony). It has been most commonly identified in classical music, developing strongly during the Renaissance and in much of thecommon practice period, especially in Baroque music. The term originates from the Latin punctus contra punctum meaning "point against point". ex: Fugue no. 17 in A-flat major, BWV 862, from book 1 of The Well-Tempered Clavier by Bach

Almost Transparent Blue

black bird.jpg

可怕的世界仍然被我踩在腳下啊。
...你會看見黑鳥的,綠眼睛曾這麼對我說過。這屋子的外面,那扇窗子的另一頭,搞不好就有巨大的黑鳥正在飛。如同黑夜本身一樣大的黑鳥,與平日啄食麵包屑的鳥一樣在空中飛舞的黑鳥,只因為實在過於巨大,所以透過窗戶就只能看到嘴巴上如洞窟般的鼻孔而已,無法窺見全貌吧。就好像被我殺死的蛾,並不知道我的全貌就一命嗚呼,一定是這樣。
妳仔細看,那城市就是鳥,那並不是城市唷,那裡並沒有人居住,那是鳥呀,妳不知道嗎?妳真的不知道嗎?那個在沙漠裡吶喊,要飛彈爆炸的男人,就是想要殺死鳥啊。鳥非殺不可,如果不把鳥殺掉,我就會越來越迷失。那隻鳥一直在干擾,把我想看的東西都藏了起來。...
原來我一直都在接觸自己不明瞭的事物,我躺在草地這樣想。即便是現在,身處這靜謐夜裡的醫院中庭的現在,情況也依然沒變吧。現在,巨大的黑鳥仍然在飛,我和苦澀的青草、圓形小蟲一起被囚禁在胎內。除非我的身體脫水硬化,就如同這隻變得像是小石子的蛾一樣,才有可能擺脫黑鳥。
...邊緣仍留有血跡的玻璃杯碎片沾染了黎明的空氣,變得幾乎透明。
這是一種接近無限透明的藍色。...希望自己身上也能夠映出這和緩的白色起伏。我希望也能夠讓別人看到映在我身上的優美起伏。

滾蛋吧
我一點也不希望你來

Memento

memento.jpg

Memento is a thriller film written and directed by Christopher Nolan. This is a story of a man who suffer from short-term memory loss, trying to find out who murdered his wife. To remind himself the clues, he tattooed the essential information on his body and took photos for everyone he had met. The story line is presented as two sections and proceeds alternatively, one is told forward in time while the other is told backwards, so the film ends in the middle of the whole tale. The audience have to gather each bit of the scenes by themself for the special narrative mechanism, just as the role did in film, and this is the most interesting part for me.

Mansun's only love song

97年灰燈籠的出現已是英搖黃金期之末
03年第四張專輯製作到一半便解散
同時期更是無法跟其他大團比
卻是令人驚艷值得一再回味的團體

迷幻的概念式專輯, 故事連貫一氣呵成
歌詞哲學也相當令人玩味
比起Suede, 他的陰柔唱腔我還能接受
一、二張灰燈籠和Six評價都不錯
第三張主唱Paul也承認只是迎合市場的垃圾
第四張則是把demo和b-side集成豪華3CD告別作

意外發現張阿懸也翻唱
還有echo在英搖之夜也唱過Taxloss
要說現在較知名的這些文青樂團是吸著britpop奶水長大的也不為過
