Falling slowly
I don't know you,but I want you,all the more for that.
Words fall through me,and always fool me,and I can't react
And games that never amount to more than they're meant will play themselves out
Take this sinking boat and point it home,we've still got time
Raise your hopeful voice you have a choice, you've made it now
Falling slowly eyes that know me, and I can't go back
Moods that take me and erase me, and I'm painted black
You have suffered enough,and warred with yourself,It's time that you won
Take this sinking boat and point it home,we've still got time
Raise your hopeful voice you have a choice you've made it now
Falling slowly sing your melody,I'll sing along
尝试着去理解，但是总会想起这首歌，Glen低沉的声线和Marketa清亮的声音配合起来，还是那么熟悉，那么的令人简单起来。真实的，太简单的故事，简单的令人难以相信这会是一部电影。自己的故事不会变成电影，变成电影的，都是别人的故事。就像《人间喜剧》中的那些人，那些事，到底谁才是电影中的角色？
刚刚看了一个笑话，大意是说一个小孩总要拿饼干给售票窗口中的售票员，售票员说不要、谢谢的时候孩子他妈说：不好意思，刚从动物园回来。
我也在尝试让自己在中午困顿的时候能够不用去思考，可是真的很难。老徐在桌子前，说了他的故事，也许我那句话真是无心，我们都是劳碌人。老徐的故事也很简单，几十年的风风雨雨，得到了什么失去了什么，谁也很难说清，只是觉得，至少，老徐觉得不错，至少嫂子很开朗也很护着老徐。过程，也许是很繁复的，但是结果总是很简单的。而专业习惯，让我现在已经在尝试着分解复杂的问题变成简单的问题——回首向来萧瑟路，也无风雨也无晴——真要做到这点，我都要成半仙了。
那年在科分院门口，有人叫我哥，可是我真的不认识，我也很老实，告诉我不认识你，对方也很实在，是我小弟的同学。多少年之后，我再从那里经过，居然有些期盼这种感觉，一种陌生感，是城市的陌生还是自己陌生？平淡的信号，是危险的信号。意识形态的问题，还得需要意识形态去解决。我做不到老Bill那种浪潮汹涌下的淡然，所以，我也只能随波逐流。有些累了，不仅是自己，也累别人，都很累。但是还得继续，不管如何。

捷克才女Marketa Irglova的日志 2008年,19岁的才女拿到了格莱美最佳原创音乐奖,获奖感言也很感人:
“Hi everyone. I just want to thank you so much. This is such a big deal, not only for us, but for all other independent musicians and artists that spend most of their time struggling, and this, the fact that we’re standing here tonight, the fact that we’re able to hold this, it’s just the proof that no matter how far out your dreams are, it’s possible. And, you know, fair play to those who dare to dream and don’t give up. And this song was written from a perspective of hope, and hope at the end of the day connects us all, no matter how different we are. And so thank you so much, who helped us along way. Thank you.”
猫扑上有《The Swell Season》的链接，这样的东西，应该用心去听，我不知道西尔德斯神话如何介绍他们，但是给我感觉，很干净，一如在《Once》中的表现。尝试在这里下载原声大碟：once original soundtrack
