Two people’s decisions are needed for starting a relationship, but only one person’s decision is needed to end it.
A couple may separate; relationship may end; but love may go on.
I found I love you more and better, but it is not important.
The important thing is I will carry our love for the rest of my days.

About “The View From Here”

Through the craggy mountains of sound that North Carolina metal acts have pushed up through the years lies the lulls and valleys populated by pop bands that once dominated the local music scenes, and their younger brethren eager to return to the melodies that first put the state on the map. Climbing down from the monoliths towering above to forge something new and unique is Yearling, featuring Sid Menon, bassist for the uncompromisingly brutal Glass Casket. Cutting his teeth touring the nation with the metal outfit, Menon realized that as much as he enjoyed the shredding and destruction Glass Casket provided him with, his heart still lie in the golden sounds of 70's AM pop. A sound he was eager to breathe new life into and bring back to the forefront in the scene at home. On their debut full-length, The View From Here, Yearling takes the arena-rock appeal of artists like Todd Rundgren and T. Rex and updates it with an ambience and soul all their own. The result is an album bursting with lush harmonies and fluid, textured guitar-work. There are hints of synth and sound loops that flesh things out and make each song it's own animal, an impressive feat in a sea of pop that pays tribute to yesterday and yet all sounds the same. The most impressive thing about the album is that you'll barely notice as the instantly catchy choruses bury themselves inside your head, unable to be shaken for weeks. But that's certainly not a bad thing as you'll find that the mood of the record is such that every time you hum it to yourself you'll be smiling.

Raleigh's Yearling make their six strings twinkle as they belt out birthday well wishes and Splenda-sweet melodies.” — Independent Weekly, Raleigh NC

如果廣東話將要消失，你最想保留哪一句話？

香港人說話時中時英、又中又英，最後不中不英，這是否就是我們對港式廣東話的集體記憶？一個地方的語言跟它的文化藝術一樣，都是有生命的東西，它們本是屬於生活，而不是屬於博物館的；它們所表現的活力、特質，是生活在同一地方的人所共同擁有的。香港由於歷史因素，華洋混集，由是我們一直在中與英之間尋找自己；在全球化的浪潮下，我們又在「國際文化」裡迷失、摸索。具本土性的東西不斷消亡，直到一天，我們發覺本來屬於生活的東西走進了博物館，那時已是「愛得太遲」…

※卜玉珍作品「不中不英」

是次展覽取名自藝術館的一件藏品 – 卜玉珍的「不中不英」。卜的作品以港式廣東話創作，表現了藝術家對這個地方的觀察和領會。同時展出的還有程展緯、洪強、李慧嫻、曾建華和黃琮俞幾位香港藝術家。他們的作品在思考語言、本土歷史文化、身份等問題上，都提供了很有意思的材料和觀點。

「不中不英 － 香港藝術展」以語言為題，由館藏出發，探尋香港藝術的當代語境。展覽取名藝術館的藏品 – 卜玉珍的《不中不英》，同場亦展出藝術家李慧嫻、曾建華、程展緯、洪强和黃琮瑜的十組作品。他們都是歷屆香港藝術雙年展的得獎者和入選者，作品均為探討本土（視覺）語言文化的理想材料。

卜玉珍的《不中不英》以港式廣東話創作，表現了藝術家對地方特色敏銳的觀察。李慧嫻的兩組作品是香港雙語教學的代表作，她把玩的是中、英文語言中的男、女觀念。至於曾建華的作品，對語言文化應否有雅俗之分提出了更嚴厲的質詢。程展緯則試圖透過作品對本土文化進行積極搶救。洪強關心的同樣是語言在世界高速發展下出現的失衡問題。黃琮瑜的兩件作品以高科技創作，用最當代的視覺語言思考自身和藝術的問題。

展覽由三月二十三日至六月三日在藝術館舉行。

忽然諗起…

其實我有冇係度介紹過自己人生既第一首主打歌?

04年首支主打 “偏見與傲慢”, 收錄在首張大碟 “一個夢想” 內, 描述的是電影 “魔戒2″ 內的一個小魔怪角色 (”Smuggles”),  這個患有bipolar disorder 和雙重性格的角色深深吸引我, 因而寫了這首怪怪的歌.

那時因為還未入tvb, 也未有一個很有系統的宣傳方法, 所以一直都不是很多人認識這首歌. 外界的反應對這首歌是很極端, 一就是很喜歡, 一就是覺得好難聽. 很多人問我為什麼一開始就打那麼偏的歌? 我的答案很簡單: 因為我是一個獨立自資歌手, 如果大路情歌大家根本不用選我.

現在就放上 blog 讓大家重溫吧!!

主唱: 吳彤

承認我 承認我 神經很錯亂
跟你好 跟你好 就似擁有過貝聿銘的出版
抱擁溫莎堡一般燦爛
是誰亦都戀棧 登發現號一般驚嘆
要離別會是多麼慘 如何面對再去力挽

拋不開偏見與傲慢
可惜怎麼會轉淡 淡到沒時間 共吃二人餐
決不可以停下這樣到站

腦海裡面就似  但丁詩篇荒誕
有古怪念頭迅速氾濫
已跟你太習慣  己經不可失散
有千個別人也不會揀
 
腦海裡面就似 企於冰島風眼 
遠征到熱河派出戰艦
你知每個夜晚 變得多麼心淡
有千個別人也不會揀  (想愛亦難)

一刻激烈  一刻火速轉淡  夜晚感觀異常未慣
心肌分裂  跳動也極蹣跚  隨便調亂快慢 (能用盡力去爭)

我同意吳彤的非主流歌是較主流的好聽，現在的台風比早期好多了。BTW，那隻小怪叫Gollum，歌曲尾部扮牠的聲音也扮得很像。

I think it is about time to forget,
I think it is about time not to mention again,
Things we have gone through should stay in the past,
Things come in the future will give power to life.
