这个选歌不是给死者的，而是给生者的。尤其是那些心理压力特别大，郁闷，压抑，心慌，撕心裂肺，感到情绪难以排解的朋友们。但凡抒情的、节奏缓慢的都排除没选。我希望可以刺激一点点，爽快一点点。只是一点点。那些阴影挥之不去，我想从歌中找寻一种经历过痛苦后挥挥泪重新面对生活的勇气，一种积极向上的温情。记住过去，记住死者，同舟共济，我们要站起来，我们要重生。

很仓促，都是最近听的歌，新歌居多，随手拿来，没有翻旧账。一共8首。

1

Fuck Buttons — Sweet Love For Planet Earth
from Street Horrrsing (2008)
Electric / Rock / Experimental

我想寻找一个刺激一点的开头，以对应受到沉重打击的心情。

The National — Apartment Story
from Boxer (2007)
Indie Rock

公寓房间里的情感故事离不开床铺。动人的是自己给自己鼓励，自己摆脱阴霾的部分。

Be still for a second while I try and try to pin your flowers on la la la la
Can you carry my drink I have everything else
I can tie my tie all by myself
I’m getting tied, I’m forgetting why

Oh we’re so disarming darling, everything we did believe
is diving diving diving diving off the balcony
Tired and wired we ruin too easy
sleep in our clothes and wait for winter to leave

Hold ourselves together with our arms around the stereo for hours, la la la la
While it sings to itself or whatever it does
when it sings to itself of its long lost loves
I’m getting tied, I’m forgetting why

Tired and wired we ruin too easy
sleep in our clothes and wait for winter to leave
but I’ll be with you behind the couch when they come
on a different day just like this one

We’ll stay inside til somebody finds us
do whatever the TV tells us
stay inside our rosy-minded fuzz for days
We’ll stay inside til somebody finds us
do whatever the TV tells us
stay inside our rosy-minded fuzz

so worry not
all things are well
we’ll be alright
we have our looks and perfume

stay inside til somebody finds us
do whatever the TV tells us
stay inside our rosy-minded fuzz

so worry not
all things are well
we’ll be alright
we have our looks and perfume on

Ultra Orange & Emmanuelle — Don’t Kiss Me Goodbye
from Ultra Orange & Emmanuelle (2007)
Indie / Pop

我不得不又选了一首来自房间内的爱情故事。此曲被收入进《The Diving Bell and The Butterfly》的原声碟。里面有一种依恋之情。你也可以不把它当爱情作品来看。

If you close the door
just turn off the lights now
the world looks better into the dark
between the curtains somebody’s watching
oh sail me the moon
before it’s too late

son’t kiss me goodbye baby

I turn around since too much time
those railroad tracks
will swallow my mind
I try so hard to stop waisting my life
if only I could just make you mine

don’t kiss me goodbye

4

A Place to Bury Strangers — Missing You
from A Place to Bury Strangers (2007)
Post-punk / Shoegaze

想念也可以是无尽的痛苦黑洞。

5

Joy Division — Atmosphere
from Substrance (1988)
Post-punk

可以把这首看作是写给死者的歌。有时候我甚至希望我下葬时能用这首作哀乐。其实，此歌更寄托了生者的思念。情绪很对。我可以一动不动听上几个小时。

Walk in silence,
Don’t walk away, in silence.
See the danger,
Always danger,
Endless talking,
Life rebuilding,
Don’t walk away.

Walk in silence,
Don’t turn away, in silence.
Your confusion,
My illusion,
Worn like a mask of self-hate,
Confronts and then dies.
Don’t walk away.

People like you find it easy,
Naked to see,
Walking on air.
Hunting by the rivers,
Through the streets,
Every corner abandoned too soon,
Set down with due care.
Don’t walk away in silence,
Don’t walk away.

Electric President — We Will Walk Through Walls
from Sleep Well (2008)
Electric / Indie

我问牛，有什么灾后可听的专辑。他推荐了这张新专辑。睡个好觉。

Pulp — I Love Life
from We Love Life (2001)
Brit-pop

爱。是的。爱。

Here comes your bedtime story: Mum & Dad have sentenced you to life.
Don’t think twice; it’s the only reason I’m alive.
I feel alright as long as I don’t forget to breathe.
Breathe in, breathe in, breathe out.
Look at all these buildings & houses
I love my life. I love my life.
Hey now, slow down a minute.
Take my arms & fill them full of life.
Don’t think twice.
Does it ease the pain of being alive?
Or is it why – why you keep nodding out on me?
Breathe in, breathe in, breathe out.
Another day, another major disaster
I love my life. I love my life.
You got a problem.
I lost my keys when I stayed at your place.
On the floor of your living room, you made the scene but it’ll never get shown on TV.
So tonight prepare to kiss goodbye to my lovelife.
So get this right- I love my life; it’s the only reason I’m alive.
It’s mine, all mine – as long as I don’t forget to breathe.
Breathe in, breathe in, breathe out.
Corny I know, but you had better believe it
I love my life. I love my life. I love my life. God, how I love my life.
That’s right: you’ve got to fight to the death for the right to live your life.
Alright: I’m gonna fight to the death ’til they give me back my life.
That’s right: you’re in the land of the living but there’s so few signs of life.
Alright.
Breathe in. Breathe out. Breathe out.

British Sea Power — We Close Our Eyes
from Do You Like Rock Music? (2008)
Brit-pop / Indie-rock

这是最后的安慰曲。有什么风雨我们一起走过去。

We’re all in it and we close our eyes
