dreaming in ...

要如何責怪夏天的一片海洋？

她從來就不曾屬於你。

紀念，被絕望燙傷的夏天。

陳奕迅 - 無人之境

「一人之境」, 不知靈感有否來自於「無人之境」呢?

陳奕迅 - 傾城 (2012)

相信不少人是因為陳奕迅翻唱的版本才認識這首歌, 他確實把這首歌演繹得不錯, 應該是翻唱之中聽得最舒服的男聲, 不需要很用力, 就可以將哀傷隱隱帶出, 但他已經完全放下了嗎? 顯然是還沒有

相反原唱以一種感情較為澎湃的方式演繹, 加上不太正統的廣東話, 出來的感覺反而令人更有共鳴, 那種強烈的空虛無助感就被她一字一句唱到心坎中, 而她的美聲在這首歌中更加顯露無遺

紅眼睛 幽幽的看著這孤城 如同苦笑 擠出的高興 

瓊樓玉宇 倒了陣形 來營造這絕世的風景

傳說中 癡心的眼淚會傾城 霓虹熄了 世界漸冷清 

煙花會謝 笙歌會停 顯得這故事尾聲 更動聽

3. V煞 V for Vendetta (2005)

攜同逝去了的夢　欣賞雨中戀人們相護送 那雨後的冷意　昨日也一樣濃 寂寥茫然的風　情懷仍未凍 讓昨天柔柔思憶　心中舞動 * 徘徊在雨灑街頭　身邊汽車不停飛過 　那跌落的雨傘　似倦透的面容 　被遺忘無依感覺　原來沉痛 　讓雨的水點輕輕沾濕我夢 # 太陽彷彿瞭解我沉默傷痛 　冰凍雨後給我照亮　熱暖心頭送 　啊　會否與她這原地相逢 　為我解去寂寥　擁抱熱暖中 Ooh ﹒雙雙的背影　又泛起昨天的邂逅(偶遇) 　相識紛飛雨中　但愛戀流逝像風

Japanese:  中村雅俊 - 恋人も濡れる街角 (1982)

For the melody, I like the original Japanese one more, but since I understand Cantonese, I find the lyrics is so poetic, esp. the bold part.

*Cantonese lyrics written by 簡寧

And lastly I recommend an amazing Japanese cover from HK singer 衛蘭 (2010)

Beneath You It Eats Its Name.

When all the stars are consumed.

We will sing it to the Audient Void.

By fire. By water. By air. By earth.

We are born of one. The Unbound was not.

Best of us. The first given the breath of life by the Host.

Wise is the maker who fears their own skill.

Woe to all when a thing is made too well.

The angels. All pallid and wan, trembled when it tore out its own name.

It gnashed. It chewed. Memory became its food.

And then no one could recall the name. Not even the makers.

Names fetter fast when spoken true.

But the Unbound has no chains.

The Host could not command it.

The Dreamers could not seduce it.

Gaia could not inspire obeisance.

Elohim, jinn, and shaytan trembled at its savage freedom.

By the Howling! By the inconceivable fates.

In the end, it was a solitary man, a clever ape.

King Solomon, the smiling magus, tricked and trapped the Unbound.

Using a bauble from the Age of celestial sciences.

The prison, a universe in a trinket, was placed under the Black Pyramid.

And there the Unbound remains, behind the entrance unknown.

Silently speak these letters three.

 We will sing it to the Audient Void,

When all the stars are consumed.

Super Brain 2016 - China vs Japan 

And I keep searching for the most difficult mental calculations accomplished in world record and finally this man appears.

Some people think there must be a way to simplify the calculation so that it could turn into a humanly possible one, but what I feel amazed is his talent to find the way and also the time and effort he paid to make it successful.

Definitely there is more when I search through 13th root of a large number, and finally appears the world record holder,  Alexis Lemaire

Here is some info about his record:
