今天整理電腦同時聽著音樂 翻找我的iTune音樂庫突然發現這首曲子

First Day Of My Life by BRIGHT EYES
收錄在專輯 I'm Wide Awake, It's Morning 中

簡單介紹一下這支來頭不小的MV

導演是 John Cameron Mitchell
也許光聽到他的名字不是這麼熟悉
這位導演就是電影"性愛巴士(Shortbus)" 的 導演 / 製作 / 創作人

John 也在1992年 於 New York Times 名人錄公開的出櫃 成為媒體的焦點
而後出名的創作包括 1998年的外百老匯音樂劇 Hedwig and the Angry Inch
2006年 電影 性愛巴士(Shortbus)

而這支MV則是他2005年的作品
同年他還有執導另一支MV Scissor Sisters - Filthy/Gorgeous
但因為包含太多猥褻內容而遭MTV禁播 如果有興趣的 可以看以下連結

另外根據WIKI上的資料
"First Day Of My Life"這支MV也拿下了第十七屆 GLAAD 特別表揚的殊榮獎項
" a special recognition award for the video for
"First Day of My Life" at the 17th Annual GLAAD Media Awards."


well.. MV介紹完了 好好聽一下這首歌吧!

其實我喜歡的 不單單只是音樂 更讓我愛上他的 是歌詞

This is the first day of my life
I swear I was born right in the doorway
I went out in the rain suddenly everything changed
They're spreading blankets on the beach

Yours is the first face that I saw
I think I was blind before I met you
Now I don’t know where I am
I don’t know where I’ve been
But I know where I want to go

And so I thought I’d let you know
That these things take forever
I especially am slow
But I realize that I need you
And I wondered if I could come home

Remember the time you drove all night
Just to meet me in the morning
And I thought it was strange you said everything changed
You felt as if you'd just woke up
And you said “this is the first day of my life
I’m glad I didn’t die before I met you
But now I don’t care I could go anywhere with you
And I’d probably be happy”

So if you want to be with me
With these things there’s no telling
We just have to wait and see
But I’d rather be working for a paycheck
Than waiting to win the lottery
Besides maybe this time is different
I mean I really think you like me

以上 推薦給各位 相信每個人聽完這首歌 應該都有不同的感動 :)

"" A melody is like seeing someone for the first time.
The physical attraction,sex.
But then,as you get to know the person,that's the lyrics.
Their story,who they are underneath.
It's combination of the two that makes it magic. ""
