In my younger and more vulnerable years my father gave me some advice that
I’ve been turning over in my mind ever since.
是的,這是《大亨小傳》(The Great Gatsby)的第一句話。而今年在AI,我們沒有
大亨,只有被大家批評「喘氣很大聲,好傻好天真」的The Great Gaspy,David
Archuleta。
該怎樣形容Archie的聲音呢?他的聲音有很強大的力量。那個力量是超越他年紀的賦
予。聽他唱歌,雖然聲音不是非常漂亮完美,但是他有種下凡的天使,secular angelic
voice.
第一次聽到他唱Imagine,第一句就讓我雞皮疙瘩都上來。我記得我那時候在倫敦的
朋友家裡,清晨的房間裡,小弟的歌聲讓沒有暖氣的房間都顯得溫暖。
我喜歡他有脆弱的時候。雖然我也一度對他感到厭倦。但是脆弱的時候,我會想起,
啊這個孩子才壹拾柒。他背後的父親,不管是好是壞,可以想見對他期望之深。
今天的final,小弟火力全開。我喜歡他這樣奮力一搏的神情。眼光也都全都不一樣。
He is young, and he is vulnerable, but he is ready for this world.
不管最後結果是什麼,thank you, Archuleta, you’ve brought me a wonderful night,
and I am so proud of you.
And I guess we all are.
