1,暴雪出品,必属佳作!


2,欲望都市》电影版

很奇怪在看完这个美剧所有七季之后,我才知道这4个女人每次出场都是满身名牌,且从来没穿重过。
我竟然从来没注意过她们的穿着。
我喜欢这个剧,是因为我想了解另一个国度的30岁女人如何处理友情、亲情、爱情以及独立生活的问题。她们碰到的绝大多数问题我也碰到过,甚至是很细节的问题。所以那段时间只是感觉心有戚戚。
电视剧就是这个功用吧。除了kill time,更多的是让多情女子们的多余情感有一个认同和宣泄的地方。
刚看了电影版的《欲望都市》。上手40分钟让我倒足胃口(幸好我今天为自己烧了一大盆yummy的花菜肉片,否则真要吐了),难道编剧真的要把这个电影搞成一台时装秀+空洞的婚礼么?
不过接下来的100分钟都不错。依旧看到了3年前的那4个女人对于感情的挣扎,有喜有悲。最后Carrie选择尊重Big,举行了简朴的婚礼,也让人感到高兴。
电影结束的时候,女友们为Samantha过了50岁生日,想刚开始时,她不过40吧。时光是残酷的,不过Samantha依旧是她自己。我喜欢她的个性,可惜朋友们说我是Carrie和Miranda的综合体。

3,Alanis Morissette - Flavors Of Entanglement ★★★☆ 2008.6.10

Alanis Morissette最值得称道的是她的真性情。她的嗓子也是独一无二的。虽然她的专辑里,制作部分对嗓音的修饰越来越多,但我依然享受她独特的吐字方式。
另外她的歌词写得很好。相较第一张专辑来说,这张专辑关注的范围已经宽泛很多,显然她不再满足于搞点小情调了。
I declare a moratorium on things relationship/ I declare a respite from the toils of liaison/ I do need a breather from the flavors of entanglement/ I declare a full time-out from all things commitment.
Moratorium

(土豆的嵌入播放器做得越来越不人性化了)

4,Liz Phair - Exile in Guyville ★★★★ 2008.6.24

1993年专辑的再版,加DVD一张。
Liz Phair,出生即遭父母遗弃,后被一外科医生领养。
多数人的人格在18个月内通过与母亲的互动完成,那么Liz Phair呢?——显然不是省油的灯。
可以想象这个(当年)26岁的姑娘,总是把同别人的感情搞得一团糟,歇斯底里发作一番,然后又用音乐记录下来。
这张专辑不仅仅是lo-fi在吸引我(其实我没觉得她有多lo-fi),歌和歌之间的区别、细节处的奇妙构思更是值得赞叹,可以说是她最出色的一张作品。
女朋克始终是女朋克,她不会自怨自艾的,她的能量始终指向外部世界。

5,Nine Inch Nails - The Slip ★★★☆ 2008.7.22

正如NIN亲近电子乐一样,他们也亲近互联网。这次NIN又是先在网上免费发专辑,然后再发传统形式唱片,以满足不同类型歌迷的欣赏习惯。
和其他激进的金属乐队相比,NIN要感性得多,善于营造抽象的几何氛围,歌词也不错,我喜欢的。
20年的老牌乐队,不必再在技术和吼叫上争天地了。
将来的音乐恐怕也不需要唱片公司来整合了,艺人自己决定怎么做的可能性更大。
Trent Reznor对中国很友好,来过好几次了。

6,Lil Wayne - Tha Carter III ★★ 2008.6.20

说唱大约是我最不喜欢的黑人音乐形式。还加上一堆乱七八糟的音效,实在不敢恭维。
不过这张貌似在美国大红。不懂。

7,Lizz Wright - The Orchard ★★★ 2008.2.26

Lizz Wright,我个人觉得比Norah Jones和Diana Krall更有味道。爵士女歌手还是黑人好,倒不是我有种族偏见。
如果说她有什么欠缺的话,我认为是深度不够,没有入木三分刻骨的气息。而且,一张专辑,又有爵士,又有民谣,又有乡村,感觉怪怪。幸好那几首民谣不算难听。
也许,对我们这种老Jazz Vocal听太多的人来说,现在已经不可能有人能满足我们挑剔的耳朵了。

大概我有点忙晕了,怎么看着今天介绍的人,名字都差不多啊?  >。< 好像有点神经了......这几天稍稍闲下来,还在继续听新专辑,听完了继续写:)
