之前經朋友介紹,聽了一首Corrinne May的Fly Away這首歌,當下馬上被她的歌聲所吸引.她的嗓音很純淨,而且有一種似乎可以觸及內心深處的穿透力,所以我總是喜歡一個人安靜的欣賞她的歌聲,然後任憑內心的情緒流溢.
後來也上網查了一下她的資料,才知道原來她是新加坡人,後來以歌曲創作在美國崛起.記得幾年前張韶涵有演出一部偶像劇「海豚灣戀人」,當時張韶涵所扮演的角色在劇中就常會演唱「Journey」這首歌.那時只覺得這首歌很好聽,可是並不知道原來就是翻唱自Corrinne May的原作.兩者相較之下,我覺得Corrinne May的演唱較能達到情緒的張力繼而感動聽眾.
在她的Fly Away照這張專輯中,我非常喜歡「Same Side of the Moon」這首歌,每次聽到這首歌的時候,心裡會有一種淡淡的憂傷的感覺.記得吳若權曾經在歡唱悲歌這本書中說到:「最深的想念,就是擁抱的時候還能想念對方;而最大的疏離,莫過於親密的時候還覺得彼此陌生」.而這首歌就是給我這種感覺. 有興趣的人可以點下面的連結聽聽看囉.

I'm looking out the window
Where we sat to watch the stars
There's a chill within the air
It makes my heart long for your touch
You may be miles away
But as I kneel to pray
I see the same side of the moon
That we'll be looking on when the world turns blue
And know that time and space can't come between me and you
We share the same side of the moon
And though you'll never see all the tears shine through
I know I can't be that far from you
If we're both looking on the same side of the moon
I picture you across the ocean
In your corner of the world
I pray the wind will blow my voice
And gently whisper in your ear
Your night may be my day
And though the seasons change
It's still the same side of the moon
That we'll be looking on when the world turns blue
And know that time and space can't come between me and you
We share the same side of the moon
And though you'll never see all the tears shine through
I know I can't be that far from you
If we're both looking on the same side of the moon
I know I can't be that far from you
If we're both looking on the same side of the moon
