《Hotel California》 一首动听诡异的歌 (原创图片和文字)
6-Park的各个板块就像五光十色的人生折射到这里的各种缩影。有空时随便逛逛这个公园里的不同的区域,会有意想不到的发现。有一次在6公园曲径通幽的某个角落,居然也办了一个与其板块主旨基本无关的唱歌活动;更让我惊艳的是一位小哥自弹自唱了一首《加州旅馆》。这是一首很难唱的歌,小哥的完成度相当的好。我很喜欢老鹰乐队的这首《加州旅馆》, 所以一时心血来潮根据歌词的意境制作了一幅图。在欧美的摇滚乐队里,毒品和女人常是他们的生活支柱,也是他们的创作之源。《加州旅馆》是一首在世界各地传唱度和播放量极高的经典;这首歌,曲风怪异,但优美动听。我觉得此曲不应人间有,当然也不是来自天堂或地狱,而是吸毒后的嗨,飘飘然中出现的幻觉,被断断续续地记录下来,写进歌里。歌词描述的是在午夜时分,一个在荒漠中驱车旅行的疲惫过客,闻到了空气中飘荡的大麻香,仿佛看到远处旅馆招牌上忽明忽暗的霓虹灯,旅馆门前时现时隐的女郎。。。 歌词中的colitas是俚语,这里虽然指的是大麻,但它的另一个意思是臀部(隐喻性或女人)。毒品嗨的时候大概很爽,所以就有了那些似有似无,旅馆后院里的轻歌曼舞尽兴尽欢的虚幻场景。但毒品一旦上了瘾就很难解。于是就有了我认为是点睛之笔:Your can checkout any time you like, but you can never leave!王家卫的《2046》我觉得很可能也是在他吸毒后产生的灵感;电影中那些无厘头的片段有点虚幻,它们之间的逻辑联系不是很强;但每一个片段呈现的画面却是很精致,演员阵容也很强大。电影名2046本身也是那部电影里旅馆的一个房间号码;这个虚无的,满装过往记忆的房间,进去了也就出不来了,似乎与《加州旅馆》里那句“Your can checkout any time you like, but you can never leave!”遥相呼应。所以我图中用2046作为加州旅馆里一个房间的房间号。 《加州旅馆》这首歌里让我觉得最特别和有魅力的是它超长(超过2分钟)的吉他前奏,还有那些直击心底的鼓点,艺术感染力超强!小娟的《往事随风》里的配器应该也借鉴了这个风格,这在中文歌曲里也比较罕见。“都云作者癡, 誰解其中味”。很多人喜欢《加州旅馆》是因为它动听的旋律和独特的编曲,但真正听懂它歌词意思的人可能不多。同理,也有一些人喜欢王家卫的《2046》的精致画面,但这也是一个不太易懂的电影,比较烧脑。我制作的这幅图试图探讨上面二个艺术作品里某种有关联的意境,随便看看就好。:)《Hotel California》(尽管是现场录音,但这首音质很好,值得戴高保真耳机欣赏)
《往事随风》
Hotel CaliforniaOn a dark desert highway
Cool wind in my hair
Warm smell of colitas
Rising up through the air
Up ahead in the distance
I saw a shimmering light
My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim
I had to stop for the nightThere she stood in the doorway
I heard the mission bell
And I was thinking to myself
"This could be Heaven or this could be Hell"
Then she lit up a candle
And she showed me the way
There were voices down the corridor
I thought I heard them sayWelcome to the Hotel California
Such a lovely place (such a lovely place)
Such a lovely face
Plenty of room at the Hotel California
Any time of year (any time of year)
You can find it hereHer mind is Tiffany-twisted
She got the Mercedes Benz
She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys
That she calls friends
How they dance in the courtyard
Sweet summer sweat
Some dance to remember
Some dance to forgetSo I called up the Captain
"Please bring me my wine"
He said, 'We haven't had that spirit here
Since 1969"
And still those voices are calling from far away
Wake you up in the middle of the night
Just to hear them sayWelcome to the Hotel California
Such a lovely place (such a lovely place)
Such a lovely face
They livin' it up at the Hotel California
What a nice surprise (what a nice surprise)
Bring your alibisMirrors on the ceiling
The pink champagne on ice
And she said, 'We are all just prisoners here
Of our own device"
And in the master's chambers
They gathered for the feast
They stab it with their steely knives
But they just can't kill the beastLast thing I remember, I was
Running for the door
I had to find the passage back
To the place I was before
"Relax, " said the night man
"We are programmed to receive
You can check out any time you like
But you can never leave"
