鄉村民謠老牌女歌手-愛米羅.哈瑞絲翻唱THE BEATLES For No One 勘稱一絕,她一開口整首歌亮麗了起來,變成了好優美的一首曲子,我很喜歡她的編曲,她讓我了解到The Beatles歌也可以這樣溫柔的唱出!

附上歌詞:

You day breaks, your mind aches
You find that all her words
of kindness linger on
When she no longer needs you
She wakes up, she makes up
She takes her time and doesn't
feel she has to hurry
She no longer needs
you

And in her eyes, you see nothing

No sign of love behind the tears
Cried for no one
A love that should have lasted years


You want her, you need her
And yet you don't believe her
When she says her love is dead

You think she needs you


And in her eyes, you see nothing
No sign of love behind the
tears
Cried for no one

A love that should have lasted years

You stay home, she goes out
She says that long ago she knew someone
but now he's gone
She doesn't need him

your day breaks, your mind aches
There will be times when all the things
she said will fill your head

You won't forget her

And in her eyes, you see nothing
No sign of love behind the tears

C
ried for no one
A love that should have lasted years

世界上最悲傷的音樂



科學給了我們答案。

英國籍的生理學家Harry Witchel博士,日前應Nokia之邀進行了流行音樂史上首次以科學方式分析不同歌曲對於人類心智活動產生的情緒效應。他以心跳頻率、呼吸節奏與體溫高低測量了受試者在聆聽過程中微妙的生理變化。據他表示,悲傷的歌會減緩人的心跳,快樂的歌降低了身體的倦怠感並召喚出好的記憶,使人興奮的歌則加快了呼吸節奏。



換句話說,除了某些歌在我們生命歷程裡於特定時間與地點扮演著難以抹滅的角色,或是某些歌讓我們記起了許久之前的心情,記起了想念(或憎恨)的人;大部分的流行歌曲確實對於人類身體產生著難以察覺的作用。研究也指出,受試者心跳的速度往往反應了歌曲節奏的快慢;此外,曲勢高低的轉變對於當下的情緒承載力總能啟動即刻的影響。Harry Witchel博士以英國流行金榜(Official UK Charts Company)提供的歌曲清單對受試者進行檢驗,結果如下:



十首最快樂的歌(The Happiest 10 Songs)



1. Lily Allen - LDN

2. Abba - Dancing Queen

3. REM - Shiny Happy People


4. B52s - Love Shack

5. The Beatles - She Loves You

6. Beyonce - Crazy In Love

7. Britney Spears - Baby One More Time

8. Bill Medley and Jennifer Warnes - I've Had The Time Of My Life

9. The Spice Girls - Spice Up Your Life

10. Kylie Minogue - Spinning Around

十首最鼓舞人心的歌(The Most Exhilarating 10 Songs)



1. Blur - Song 2


2. Girls Aloud - Love Machine

3. Killers - Somebody Told Me

4. Prodigy - Firestarter

5. Razorlight - Rip It Up

6. Rolling Stones - Start Me Up

7. Gnarls Barkley - Crazy

8. U2 - Beautiful Day

9. Oasis - Roll With It


10. Take That - Relight My Fire

十首最悲傷的歌(The Saddest 10 Songs)



1. The Verve - The Drugs Don't Work

2. Robbie Williams – Angels

3. Elton John - Sorry Seems To Be The Hardest Word

4. Whitney Houston - I Will Always Love You

5. Sinead O'Connor - Nothing Compares 2 U

6. Will Young - Leave Right Now


7. Elvis Presley - Are You Lonesome Tonight?

8. Christina Aguilera – Beautiful

9. James Blunt - Goodbye My Lover

10. Radiohead - Fake Plastic Trees

對於快樂與鼓舞這兩部份我的共鳴不大,倒是The Verve - The Drugs Don’t Work與Radiohead - Fake Plastic Trees真是選進我心坎裡了,我甚至替後者寫過一篇專文。這兩首歌皆是不論何時何地何種狀態之下聆聽,都能讓我在三秒(甚至更短)之內迅速沈澱的曲目。只要木吉他前奏一出,只能投降繳械。



還記得1999年初訪英倫時,我在某個深夜獨自從國王十字車站附近的青年旅館搭乘地鐵尋訪了倫敦塔橋。當我漫步於河畔,隨身聽的BBC Radio1播放的正是The Drugs Don’t Work。一瞬間,世界在眼前成了似有若無的背景畫面,大腦分泌的激素將我抽離了現實。這首歌也是大學時在學校側門的餐廳駐唱時每晚必彈的曲子;即使吉他不在身邊,每個和弦我都記得一清二楚。Fake Plastic Trees的悲傷程度相較The Drugs Don’t Work其實難分軒輊,它也與High & Dry結成了我心中永難取代的Back to Back Tracks。



為了呼應研究結果,我試圖編列自己的悲傷歌曲清單。這才發現,清單根本沒有列完的一日。我最喜歡的歌都是悲傷的歌,而我想破了頭卻列不出十首快樂的曲子。也許High Fidelity的開場提問對我來說逐漸有了解答。



【我們究竟因為感覺悲傷才聆聽流行音樂,還是流行音樂讓我們感覺悲傷?】
