    hotel california

    夜晚一个人在屋,放着最爱的歌曲之一《hotel california》,打开小音箱窗口最大化,就像在音乐会现场一样。77年、92年、94年各个版本的mtv逐一播放,豪放不羁的年轻人转眼变为不惑的中年人,不知道他们现在离开那家旅店了没有?
     
    On a dark desert highway, cool wind in my hair
    Warm smell of colitas rising up through the air
    Up ahead in the distance, I saw a shimmering light
    My head grew heavy, and my sight grew dimmer
    I had to stop for the night
    There she stood in the doorway;
    I heard the mission bell
    And I was thinking to myself,
    'This could be Heaven or this could be Hell'
    Then she lit up a candle and she showed me the way
    There were voices down the corridor, I thought I heard them say...

    Welcome to the Hotel California
    Such a lovely place (such a lovely place)
    Plenty of room at the Hotel California
    Any time of year, you can find it here

    Her mind is Tiffany-twisted, She got the Mercedes Benz
    She's got a lot of pretty, pretty boys, that she calls friends
    How they dance in the courtyard, sweet summer sweat.
    Some dance to remember, some dance to forget
    So I called up the Captain, 'Please bring me my wine'
    He said, 'We haven't had that spirit here since 1969'
    And still those voices are calling from far away
    Wake you up in the middle of the night
    Just to hear them say...

    Welcome to the Hotel California
    Such a lovely Place (such a lovely face)
    They livin' it up at the Hotel California
    What a nice surprise, bring your alibis

    Mirrors on the ceiling, the pink champagne on ice
    And she said 'We are all just prisoners here, of our own device'
    And in the master's chambers, they gathered for the feast
    They stab it with their steely knives, but they just can't kill the beast
    Last thing I remember, I was running for the door
    I had to find the passage back to the place I was before
    'Relax' said the nightman, We are programed to receive.
    You can check out any time you like, but you can never leave
     
    有的人说不明白这个歌词,怎么说呢,谁也不能说完全明白歌词的意义,每个人有每个人的理解吧。一个你不得不进的旅馆,充满诱惑的旅馆,却又是肮脏的旅馆,你进去了就出不来。可能说的是青春的堕落,可能就是这无望的人生,前者也许还能逃脱,后者真的死路一条。“这世上有两种人,一种人忙着活,一种忙着死。”
    这首歌是美国70年代的产物,那个时代的美国人是困惑的,现在的中国年轻人是困惑的。社会充满了物欲和诱惑,所以年轻人爱摇滚,中年人则爱古典,心态是不一样的。
     
    音乐做为一种艺术——有意味的形式——来享受的时候,在于你有没有感受到那愉悦的“审美情感”。这似乎是一种很玄乎的东西,它是人类精神物质的进化和积淀,音乐和艺术是精神物态化的形式。在听我最爱的歌的时候,那种自己也说不明白的美感就产生了,呵呵。这首歌是一种颓废美!
