朋友,这里是花甲@复活的童年,我是你们的老朋友佑一村。午夜相伴•低吟成瘾 ,在你我所爱之间订立契约。晚10点在这里相聚,我们继续一起来聆听科恩的歌《Steer your way》。
“假若从头到尾都是错的,会怎样?这字与歌里的世界,惊论与心印,寻爱与弃爱,所有的罪过与祷告?”
1944年1月的一天,一个9岁小男孩给死去的父亲写了一些话,把它们埋进雪地。从那一天起,他就一直追求并记录着纪律、深度、勇气、绝望、欢笑和认真这些老观念。
“是什么驱使了这一切?冥冥中有何安排? 你知道吗?”
莱昂纳德的回答是:
“我不想过肤浅的生活。我想严肃认真地对待彼此、友人和工作。严肃认真有性感的一面,我对此深深渴望。”
今天给各位听的这首歌《Steer your way》,仍然是莱昂纳德的经典之作,依然带着些许抑郁、隐忍、痛楚,依然总能如高超的外科医生一样,得心应手精确地找到灵魂深处的病痛,依然能够游刃有余地撕开这些痛楚,并在此过程中,呈现出坚韧、勇敢、洒脱的品质,依然桀骜不驯地保持着叛逆的特质和对自己理想的执念!
