Queenie(Benjamin的妈妈) :
Everyone feels different about themselves one way or another, but we all goin’ the same way.
Captain Mike(艺术家船长) :
You can be as mad as a mad dog at the way things went. You could swear, curse the fates, but when it comes to the end, you have to let go. 你可以像瘋狗那樣對周圍的一切憤憤不平,你可以詛咒命運,但是到了最後一刻,你還是得平靜地放手而去。
Benjamin Button :
For what it’s worth: it’s never too late or, in my case, too early to be whoever you want to be. There’s no time limit, stop whenever you want. You can change or stay the same, there are no rules to this thing. We can make the best or the worst of it. I hope you make the best of it. And I hope you see things that startle you. I hope you feel things you never felt before. I hope you meet people with a different point of view. I hope you live a life you’re proud of. If you find that you’re not, I hope you have the strength to start all over again. 一件事無論太晚,或者對于我來說太早,都不會阻攔你成爲你想成爲的那個人,這個過程沒有時間的期限,只要你要,隨時都可以開始,要改變或者保留原狀都無所謂,做事本應有所束縛,我們可以辦好這件事,卻也可以把它搞砸,但我希望,最終你能成爲你想成爲的人,我希望你有時能駐足於這個令你感到感嘆的世界,體會你從未有過的感覺,我希望你能見到其他與你觀點不同的人們,我希望你有一個值得自豪的一生,如果和你想像的生活不一樣,我希望你能有勇氣,重新啓程。
Some people, were born to sit by a river. Some get struck by lightning. Some have an ear for music. Some are artists. Some swim. Some know buttons. Some know Shakespeare. Some are mothers. And some people, dance……. 有些人就在河邊出生長大;有些人,被閃電擊中過;有些人,對音樂有著非凡的天賦;有些人,是藝術家;有些人,游泳;有些人,懂得鈕扣;有些人,知道莎士比亞;有些人,是母親;也有些人,跳舞…
“Life being what it is — a series of intersecting lives and incidents, out of anyone’s control”
这里分享其中两首我很喜欢的合唱歌曲,但不是收录在“O”专辑里。来自爱尔兰的Damien Rice 和 Lisa Hannigan 现场合唱,我很欣赏这样有个性的两把歌声。

Unplayed Piano (Live)
2005年6月21日是缅甸民主人权斗士昂山素枝的六十岁生日,Damien Rice发表了 “Unplayed Piano” 作为对 “Free Aung San Suu Kyi 60th Birthday Campaign” 的支持。这首有意思的歌曲,两人的声线很搭。
Come and see me
Sing me to sleep
Come and free me
Or hold me if i need to weep
Or maybe it’s not the season
Or maybe it’s not the year
Or maybe there’s no good reason
Why i’m locked up inside
Just cause they wanna hide me
The moon goes bright
The darker they make my night
Unplayed pianos
Are often by a window
In a room where nobody loved goes
She sits alone with her silent song
Somebody bring her home
Unplayed piano (unplayed piano)
Still holds a tune (still holds a tune)
Lock on the lid (years, years pass by)
In a stale, stale room (in the changing of the moon)
Maybe it’s not that easy (too many windows)
Or maybe it’s not that hard (in a stale, stale room)
Maybe they could release me (stale, stale room)
Let the people decide
I’ve got nothing to hide
I’ve done nothing wrong
So why’ve i been here so long?
Unplayed pianos
Are often by a window
In a room where nobody loved goes
She sits alone with her silent song
Somebody bring her home
Unplayed pianos
Are often by a window
In a room where nobody loved goes
She sits alone with her silent song
Somebody bring her home
Unplayed piano (unplayed piano)
Still holds a tune
Years pass by
In the changing of the moon

9 Crimes (Live)
Leave me out with the waste
This is not what I’d do
It’s the wrong kind of place
To be thinking of you
It’s the wrong time
For somebody new
It’s a small crime
And I’ve got no excuse
Is that alright?
Give my gun away when it’s loaded
Is that alright?
If you don’t shoot it how am I supposed to hold it
Is that alright?
Give my gun away when it’s loaded
Is that alright
With you?
Leave me out with the waste
This is not what I’d do
It’s the wrong kind of place
To be cheating on you
It’s the wrong time
She’s pulling me through
It’s a small crime
And I’ve got no excuse
Is that alright?
Give my gun away when it’s loaded
Is that alright?
If you dont shoot it, how am I supposed to hold it
Is that alright?
If I give my gun away when it’s loaded
Is that alright
Is that alright with you?
Is that alright?
If I give my gun away when it’s loaded
Is that alright?
If you don’t shoot it, how am I supposed to hold it
Is that alright?
If I give my gun away when it’s loaded
Is that alright
Is that alright with you?
Is that alright?
Is that alright?
Is that alright?
Is that alright?
Is that alright?
Is that alright with you?
