2016年上半年上帝帶走了妖嬈的David Bowie擦耀,下半年的上帝突然多愁善感起來,于是又召喚走了睿智的Leonard Cohen涩堤。于是我們終于失去了內(nèi)斂而優(yōu)雅某抓,有著沙啞聲線的唱詩人以后娃循,確又無意中得到在飛逝的時(shí)光中回味和咀嚼他那些韻味長存的詩歌的機(jī)會(huì)该互。
在Cohen的各種版本的身份介紹中药版,演員,也許是不起眼的一個(gè)標(biāo)簽白魂,畢竟他的音樂汽纤、詩、小說都已經(jīng)足夠炫目福荸,而各色影視導(dǎo)演們也許沒有太多機(jī)會(huì)和這位深居簡(jiǎn)出的謫仙在鏡頭前合作蕴坪,所以他們用了另一種方式,既是合作敬锐,更是一種致敬方式吧:將Cohen的歌曲放在了他們的畫面中背传。繼續(xù)用他深沉而細(xì)膩的唱詩曲來讓我們動(dòng)容。
所以就借著這篇記錄來回顧下那些曾在鏡頭中曾經(jīng)乍現(xiàn)又驚艷的歌曲台夺,在流逝的鏡頭中一起再回味下不曾流逝的旋律和感受续室。
迪斯尼今年暑期檔的電影,翻拍自1977年的同名動(dòng)畫歌舞電影谒养,但在新片中歌舞形式徹底不見。獨(dú)立導(dǎo)演出身的David Lowery感覺缺少童真明郭,而站在完全旁觀成人的角度买窟,而且索然無味的去講了這樣一個(gè)珠玉在前的故事,甚至選入Cohen老爺子的歌曲作為插曲也顯得有些格格不入薯定。不過陪著小孩進(jìn)電影院的父母?jìng)兛赡軙?huì)被這樣有些冒失的選擇當(dāng)作貼心的加分項(xiàng)了始绍。
曲目:So Long, Marianne
選自 Leonard Cohen 1967年的首張個(gè)人專輯【Songs Of Leonard Cohen】
彼時(shí)的Cohen33歲,剛從一個(gè)備受關(guān)注和爭(zhēng)議的作家身份放下筆话侄,離開打字機(jī)亏推,背起吉他学赛,走進(jìn)了錄音棚沒幾年,他的聲線也還沒有磨礪出歲月的滄桑吞杭。伴著連綿的吉他掃弦盏浇,悠揚(yáng)的小提琴,還缺少那迷人的深邃魅力芽狗,但帶著些許亮色的質(zhì)樸卻剛好完美詮釋了這首有幾分憂傷更多是樂觀的民謠绢掰。
彼時(shí)的Cohen和他的音樂詩,親近卻不濫情童擎,悲傷又透著洞觀世情的睿智已經(jīng)略有體現(xiàn)滴劲。
Come over to the window,my little darling,
I'd like to try to read your palm.
I used to think I was some kind of Gypsy boy
before I let you take me home.
Now so long,Marianne,it's time that we began
to laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again.
Well you know that I love to live with you,
but you make me forget so very much.
I forget to pray for the angels
and then the angels forget to pray for us.
Now so long,Marianne,it's time that we began
to laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again.
We met when we were almost young
deep in the green lilac park.
You held on to me like I was a crucifix,
as we went kneeling through the dark.
Oh so long,Marianne,it's time that we began
to laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again.
Your letters they all say that you're beside me now.
Then why do I feel alone?
I'm standing on a ledge and your fine spider web
is fastening my ankle to a stone.
Now so long,Marianne,it's time that we began
to laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again.
For now I need your hidden love.
I'm cold as a new razor blade.
You left when I told you I was curious,
I never said that I was brave.
Oh so long,Marianne,it's time that we began
to laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again.
Oh,you are really such a pretty one.
I see you've gone and changed your name again.
And just when I climbed this whole mountainside,
to wash my eyelids in the rain!
Oh so long,Marianne,it's time that we began
to laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again.
HBO出神劇,我現(xiàn)在都還眼巴巴的等著【權(quán)力的游戲】第七季顾复,以及這部【真探】的第三季班挖,當(dāng)然最近口碑爆棚的【西部世界】等到季終也肯定會(huì)一頭栽進(jìn)去見識(shí)見識(shí)。
而【真探】的奇情黑色故事在冷峻的鏡頭芯砸、敘事節(jié)奏的渲染下萧芙,就像一把黑色的錐子,不動(dòng)聲色的刺入內(nèi)心乙嘀,交織在一起的命運(yùn)末购,將劇情和感情的沖突涂上了宿命般的黑色無力感。
曲目:Never mind
選自 Leonard Cohen 2014年個(gè)人專輯【Popular Problems】
做為片頭曲Never mind幾乎從一開始就完美的契合了這樣的基調(diào):Cohen冷峻深沉的人聲有力而節(jié)制的在歌唱虎谢,冰冷的重拍電子為主的伴奏編曲盟榴,而充滿印度風(fēng)情的詭異女聲聲部又陡然將冷峻推向詭異。而這首2014年的歌曲的歌詞更稱得上是【真探】的天作之合:There's Truth that lives,And Truth that dies,Never mind......不是無奈的嘆息婴噩,更是直接的質(zhì)問擎场,歌曲終了,故事也畫上了句號(hào)几莽,但是關(guān)于真相和真理的探尋卻繼續(xù)迅办。
The war was lost
The treaty signed
I was not caught
I crossed the line
I was not caught
Though many tried
I live among you
Well disguised
I had to leave
My life behind
I dug some graves
You'll never find
The story's told
With facts and lies
I had a name
But never mind
Never mind
Never mind
The war was lost
The treaty signed
There's truth that lives
And truth that dies
I don't know which
So never mind
Your victory
Was so complete
That some among you
Thought to keep
A record of
Our little lives
The clothes we wore
Our spoons our knives
The games of luck
Our soldiers played
The stones we cut
The songs we made
Our law of peace
Which understands
A husband leads
A wife commands
And all of this
Expressions of
The Sweet Indifference
Some call Love
The High Indifference
Some call Fate
But we had Names
More intimate
Names so deep and
Names so true
They're blood to me
They're dust to you
There is no need
That this survive
There's truth that lives
And truth that dies
Never mind
Never mind
I live the life
I left behind
There's truth that lives...
I could not kill
The way you kill
I could not kill
The way you kill
I could not hate
I tried I failed
You turned me in
At least you tried
You side with them
Whom you despise
This was
This swarm of flies
This was once your mouth
This bowl of lies
You serve them well
I'm not surprised
You're of their kin
You're of their kind
Never mind
Never mind
The story's told
With facts and lies
You own the world
So never mind
Never mind
Never mind
I live the life
I left behind
I live it full
I live it wide
Through layers of time
You can't divide
My woman's here
My children too
Their graves are safe
From ghosts like you
In places deep
With roots entwined
I live the life I left behind
2014年一部關(guān)于尋找的電影,也是一段關(guān)于自我認(rèn)識(shí)的記錄章蚣。抱歉我不想用“救贖”這樣已經(jīng)太流于表面的詞了站欺,我寧愿化一生的時(shí)間來認(rèn)清自己,看清這個(gè)世界纤垂,抓住一些屬于自己的勇氣矾策,記住屬于這個(gè)世界的一些美麗。如同影片最后峭沦,身處荒野密林贾虽,女主微笑了,嗯吼鱼,這世界蓬豁,這生活如何荒蕪绰咽,也要有這一笑間的芳華。
曲目:Suzanne
選自 Leonard Cohen 1967年的首張個(gè)人專輯【Songs Of Leonard Cohen】
這部電影的原聲選了很多我喜歡的老歌手地粪、樂隊(duì)的歌曲取募,比如Simon & Garfunkel、Bruce Springsteen驶忌、Portishead矛辕,當(dāng)然還有就是Cohen老爺子的了,而且是他的首本名曲Suzanne付魔。
愛戀聊品、思慕從音樂響起的瞬間就隨著輕柔的吉他,Cohen疏離又溫暖的人聲中流淌而出几苍。有些愛會(huì)隨風(fēng)飄揚(yáng)翻屈,有些愛會(huì)落入塵土,有些愛也會(huì)湮沒在大海妻坝,但是Cohen的愛如同幽深的地下暗河伸眶,被地殼包圍也有種溫柔涌動(dòng),而不期待為人輕易發(fā)現(xiàn)刽宪。Cohen在眾多場(chǎng)所唱過眾多次Suzanne以后厘贼,他才吐露Suzanne是他一位友人的妻子,而這種發(fā)乎情止乎禮的情愫正是造就這首溫柔卻不媚俗的情歌的催化劑吧圣拄。
suzanne(album version-leonard cohen
suzanne takes you down to her place near the river
you can hear the boats go by
you can spend the night beside her
and you know that she's half crazy
but that's why you want to be there
and she feeds you tea and oranges
that come all the way from china
and just when you mean to tell her
that you have no love to give her
then she gets you on her wavelength
and she lets the river answer
that you've always been her lover
and you want to travel with her
and you want to travel blind
and you know that she will trust you
for you've touched her perfect body with your mind
and jesus was a sailor
when he walked upon the water
and he spent a long time watching
from his lonely wooden tower
and when he knew for certain
only drowning men could see him
he said all men will be sailors then
until the sea shall free them
but he himself was broken
long before the sky would open
forsaken almost human
he sank beneath your wisdom like a stone
and you want to travel with him
and you want to travel blind
and you think maybe you'll trust him
for he's touched your perfect body with his mind
now suzanne takes your hand
and she leads you to the river
she is wearing rags and feathers
from salvation army counters
and the sun pours down like honey
on our lady of the harbour
and she shows you where to look
among the garbage and the flowers
there are heroes in the seaweed
there are children in the morning
they are leaning out for love
and they will lean that way forever
while suzanne holds the mirror
and you want to travel with her
and you want to travel blind
and you know that you can trust her
for she's touched your perfect body with her mind
知道這部FX制作的電視劇很早嘴秸,但是當(dāng)時(shí)看簡(jiǎn)介覺著是一部黑幫、家庭倫理混搭題材庇谆,大概是當(dāng)時(shí)覺得膩味(同期我應(yīng)該是在追【大西洋帝國】)岳掐,所以放著他到2014年第七季全劇終都沒去看。不過最近又看到他的另一個(gè)譯名:無政府之子饭耳,又突然來了興趣串述,等有時(shí)間來填坑吧。
曲目:Come Healing
選自 Leonard Cohen 2012年專輯【Old Ideas】
混亂中如何找尋真實(shí)的安穩(wěn)寞肖,沒有看劇的我纲酗,在弦樂和鋼琴陪伴中的圣潔女聲旋律緩緩出來之時(shí),卻是實(shí)實(shí)在在的感受到了安穩(wěn)新蟆。而Cohen的低沉嗓音如同一個(gè)仁慈的老者用歌聲在洗滌傷痛耕姊,寬恕著掙扎的痛苦靈魂。簡(jiǎn)單但走心的旋律栅葡,治愈的圣歌溫暖著周遭的世界。
O, gather 'round the brokenness
Bring it to me now
The fragrance of those promises
You never dared to vow
The splinters that you carried
The cross you left behind
Come healing of the body
Come healing of the mind
And let the heavens hear it
The penitential hymn
Come healing of the spirit
Come healing of the limb
Leonard:
Behold the gates of mercy
In arbitrary space
And none of us deserving
Of cruelty or the grace
Together:
O, solitude of longing
Where love has been confined
Come healing of the body
Come healing of the mind
O, see the darkness yielding
That tore the light apart
Come healing of the reason
Come healing of the heart
2011年出品的電影尤泽,陣容非常有吸引力:Woody Harrelson欣簇、Steve Buscemi规脸,還有Ben Foster,加上警界黑檔案的故事背景熊咽,感覺是很火爆的類型片莫鸭。但是當(dāng)坐在電腦前過了5分鐘以后,就會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)這是一部以文藝片手法演繹的故事横殴。緩慢的節(jié)奏被因,幾乎是Harrelson的獨(dú)角戲,憑借肢體衫仑、表情梨与,以及導(dǎo)演的鏡頭調(diào)度,完成了對(duì)一個(gè)惡警的立體刻畫文狱。一段被人偷拍的施暴惡行本身是能成為套路商業(yè)片的導(dǎo)火索粥鞋,在這部電影里卻幾乎完全的還原了生活:偶有波瀾的生活始終推著人生往前行,甚至來不及憤怒或者沮喪瞄崇。
曲目:Famous Blue Raincoat
選自Leonard Cohen1971年專輯【Songs Of Love And Hate】
這也是一首膾炙人口的經(jīng)典曲目呻粹,而且曾被Joan Baez、Tori Amos等才華橫溢又個(gè)性鮮明的女歌手所翻唱苏研。凌晨的紐約等浊,華燈已快熄滅,而曙光也還未至摹蘑,冷寂而衰弱的氣息此刻正濃筹燕。輕撥的吉他、Cohen悲傷內(nèi)斂的嗓音融進(jìn)了回憶纹蝴、懺悔庄萎,還有無盡的憐憫,還有隱隱的微弱希望藏在其中塘安,令人不忍停止聆聽糠涛,在一遍遍Cohen的吟唱中,審視自己的滑稽兼犯,自己的無力忍捡,自己在白日的頑劣和荒唐。
It's four in the morning, the end of December
I'm writing you now just to see if you're better
New York is cold, but I like where I'm living
There's music on Clinton Street all through the evening.
I hear that you're building your little house deep in the desert
You're living for nothing now,
I hope you're keeping some kind of record.
Yes, and Jane came by with a lock of your hair
She said that you gave it to her
That night that you planned to go clear
Did you ever go clear?
Ah, the last time we saw you you looked so much older
Your famous blue raincoat was torn at the shoulder
You'd been to the station to meet every train
And you came home without Lili Marlene
And you treated my woman to a flake of your life
And when she came back she was nobody's wife.
Well I see you there with the rose in your teeth
One more thin gypsy thief
Well I see Jane's awake
She sends her regards.
And what can I tell you my brother, my killer
What can I possibly say?
I guess that I miss you, I guess I forgive you
I'm glad you stood in my way.
If you ever come by here, for Jane or for me
Your enemy is sleeping, and his woman is free.
Yes, and thanks, for the trouble you took from her eyes
I thought it was there for good so I never tried.
And Jane came by with a lock of your hair
She said that you gave it to her
That night that you planned to go clear
青春切黔,無論是每一場(chǎng)考試砸脊,甚至是每一次戀愛都是一次試練。2011年的獨(dú)立電影【家庭作業(yè)】正是這樣一部青春記錄纬霞,雖然缺少浪漫喜劇的元素凌埂,卻又讓人能冷靜的回顧屬于青春的歲月和呼吸。粗枝大葉的表面下面誰都有一顆敏感的心诗芜,何況是最寶貴的少年時(shí)光瞳抓?
曲目:Winter Lady
選自 Leonard Cohen 1967年的首張個(gè)人專輯【Songs Of Leonard Cohen】
這首曲子老實(shí)說我覺得有些強(qiáng)說愁的感覺埃疫,旋律也不是喜歡的韻味:一直覺得他冷但又有幾分油滑或者是輕浮。但似乎在這樣一部青春文藝片中又恰好能貼合男主的經(jīng)歷孩哑。而33歲時(shí)Cohen的無奈演繹這樣人生經(jīng)過的青春站臺(tái)栓霜,似乎也是剛好合拍:青春漸遠(yuǎn),我將繼續(xù)漸行横蜒。
Trav'ling lady, stay awhile
until the night is over.
I'm just a station on your way,
I know I'm not your lover.
Well I lived with a child of snow
when I was a soldier,
and I fought every man for her
until the nights grew colder.
She used to wear her hair like you
except when she was sleeping,
and then she'd weave it on a loom
of smoke and gold and breathing.
And why are you so quiet now
standing there in the doorway?
You chose your journey long before
you came upon this highway.
Trav'ling lady stay awhile
until the night is over.
I'm just a station on your way,
I know I'm not your lover.
先告一段落胳蛮,戰(zhàn)戰(zhàn)兢兢,怕掛一漏萬丛晌,所以先放上這一部分的網(wǎng)易云音樂歌單仅炊,聽聽老爺子的歌,追憶中再來整理思緒茵乱。
