I'll Stand By You
Glee Cast - I'll Stand By You
Oh, why you look so sad?
Tears are in your eyes
Come on and come to me now
Don't be ashamed to cry
Let me see you through
'cause I've seen the dark side too
When the night falls on you
You don't know what to do
Nothing you confess
Could make me love you less
I'll stand by you
I'll stand by you
Won't let nobody hurt you
I'll stand by you
So if you're mad, get mad
Don't hold it all inside
Come on and talk to me now
Hey, what you got to hide?
I get angry too
Well I'm a lot like you
When you're standing at the crossroads
And don't know which path to choose
Let me come along
'cause even if you're wrong
I'll stand by you
I'll stand by you
Won't let nobody hurt you
I'll stand by you
Take me in, into your darkest hour
And I'll never desert you
I'll stand by you
And when...
When the night falls on you, baby
You're feeling all alone
You won't be on your own
I'll stand by you
I'll stand by you
Won't let nobody hurt you
I'll stand by you
Take me in, into your darkest hour
And I'll never desert you
I'll stand by you
I'll stand by you
Won't let nobody hurt you
I'll stand by you
Won't let nobody hurt you
I'll stand by you

No Heaven
Oh Lord (oh Lord, oh Lord, oh Lord, oh Lord)...
Oh Lord
Oh boy, oh well I told you
Well I told you, but I thought you'd know
There ain't no heaven
Oh Lord, there ain't no heaven
There ain't no heaven
On the county road
Don't talk about it
Oh boy, don't talk about it
Don't talk about it
If you do, I'll cry
Don't come around me
Oh Lord, don't come around me
Don't come around me
If you do, I'll die
Oh Lord (oh Lord), there ain't no heaven
Oh Lord (oh Lord), there ain't no heaven
Down at the station stood my dear ol' mother
Oh well she keep on, keep on screamin' and a-cryin'
"Oh Lord, I wonder what my son has done"
Oh Lord (oh Lord), there ain't no heaven
Oh Lord (oh Lord), there ain't no heaven
Oh Lord (oh Lord)...
Ah Did you bring me, bring me any silver? (silver, silver...)
Oh did you bring me, bring me any gold? (any gold, gold...)
Oh did you see me, workin' on South Carolina
Oh just to see me work on the county road?
Oh Lord (oh Lord), there ain't no heaven
Oh Lord (oh Lord), there ain't no heaven
(Oh Lord, oh Lord)
Oh Lord (oh Lord)
There ain't no heaven (there ain't no heaven)
(Oh lord, there ain't no heaven)
Oh lord (oh lord), there ain't no heaven

Who's Gonna Save My Soul
Who's Gonna Save My Soul
Got some bad news this morning
Which en turn made my day
When this someone spoke I listened
All of a sudden has less and less to say
Oooo how could this be
All this time I've lived vicariously
Who's gonna save my soul now
Who's gonna save my soul now
How will my story ever be told now
How will my story be told now
Made me feel like somebody... huh
Like somebody else
Although he was imitated often
It felt like I was being myself
Is it a shame that someone else's song
Was totally and completely depended on
Who's gonna save my soul now
Who's gonna save my soul now
I wonder if I'll live grow old now
Getting high cause I feel so low down
And maybe it's a little selfish
All I have is the memory
Yet I never stopped to wonder
Was it possible you hurtin' worse than me
Still my hunger turns to greed
Cause what about what I need
And Ooooo
Who's gonna save my soul now
Whooooo's gon save my soul now
Oooo I know I'm out of control now hoohooo
Tired enough to lay my own soul down

John Mayer - St. Patrick's Day
Here comes the cold
Break out the winter clothes
And find a love to call your own
You - enter you
Your cheeks a shade of pink
And the rest of you in powder blue
Who knows what will be
But I'll make you this guarantee
No way November will see our goodbye
When it comes to December it's obvious why
No one wants to be alone at Christmas time
In the dark, on the phone
You tell me the names of your brothers
And your favorite colors
I'm learning you
And when it snows again
We'll take a walk outside
And search the sky
Like children do
I'll say to you
No way November will see our goodbye
When it comes to December it's obvious why
No one wants to be alone at Christmas time
And come January we're frozen inside
Making new resolutions a hundred times
February, won't you be my valentine?
And we'll both be safe 'til St. Patrick's Day
We should take a ride tonight around the town
and look around at all the beautiful houses
something in the way that blue lights on a black night
can make you feel more
everybody, it seems to me, just wants to be
just like you and me
No one wants to be alone at Christmas time
Come January we're frozen inside
Making new resolutions a hundred times
February, won't you be my valentine?
And if our always is all that we gave
And we someday take that away
I'll be alright if it was just 'til St. Patrick's Day

Chinese Democracy 中國民主
民主的前提不是「自我統治」和「人民以和平手段達成集體決定以解決政治問題」嗎?那中國何來民主之有?
In the dictionary definition, democracy "is government by the people in which the supreme power is vested in the people and exercised directly by them or by their elected agents under a free electoral system."
In the phrase of Abraham Lincoln, democracy is a government "of the people, by the people, and for the people."
Then, Democracy in China?
Apparently, Not So Fast.
這當然不是一篇多偉大,多了不起,談論民主怎樣怎樣的文章,我要提的只是Guns N Roses的新曲Chinese Democracy而已。以上。
"Chinese Democracy" from Guns N Roses, just take a look.
It don't really matter
Gonna find out for yourself
No it don't really matter
You're gonna leave this thing to
Somebody else
If they were missionaries
Real time visionaries
Sitting in a Chinese stew
To view my dis-infatu-ation
I know that I'm a classic case
Watch my disenchanted face
Blame it on the Falun Gong*
They've seen the end and you can't hold on now
Cause it would take a lot more hate than you
To win the fascination
Even with an iron fist
All they got to rule the nation
But all I got is precious time
It don't really matter
You're gonna find out for yourself
No it don't really matter
So you can hear now from
Somebody else
Cause it would take a lot more time than you
I've got more masturbation
Even with your iron fist
All they got to rule the nation but all I got is
Precious time
All they got to rule the nation but all I got is
Precious time
It don't really matter
I guess you'll find out for yourself
No it don't really matter
So you can hear it now from
Somebody else
You think you got it all locked up inside
And if you beat them all up they'll die
Then you'll walk them home for the cells
Then now you'll dig for your road back to hell
And with your ? makes you stop
As if your eyes were their eyes you can tell
And you're out of time
*Falun Gong(法輪功)is a spiritual practice founded in China by Li Hongzhi(李洪志)in 1992.It has five sets of meditation exercises and seeks to develop practitioners' hearts and character according to the principles of Truthfulness, Compassion, and Forbearance, articulated in the main books Falun Gongand and Zhuan Falun.

Anyone else but you
You're a part time lover and a full time friend
The monkey on you're back is the latest trend
I don't see what anyone can see, in anyone else
But you
Here is the church and here is the steeple
We sure are cute for two ugly people
I don't see what anyone can see, in anyone else
But you
We both have shiny happy fits of rage
You want more fans, I want more stage
I don't see what anyone can see, in anyone else
But you
You are always trying to keep it real
I'm in love with how you feel
I don't see what anyone can see, in anyone else
But you
I kiss you on the brain in the shadow of a train
I kiss you all starry eyed, my body's swinging from side to side
I don't see what anyone can see, in anyone else
But you
The pebbles forgive me, the trees forgive me
So why can't, you forgive me?
I don't see what anyone can see, in anyone else
But you
Du du du du du du du du du dudu
Du du du du du du du du du dudu
I don't see what anyone can see, in anyone else
But you
This is the ending song from "JUNO", enjoy it!

The Internationale
紅軍電影"烽火赤焰萬里情"(Reds),1981年華倫.比提(Warren Beatty)自編自導完成這部作品時,意識型態和共產革命的英雄塑造,引發相當批判,因為當時蘇聯尚未解體,共產主義還在和資本主義對決。
"烽"片在台灣曾經遭禁演,因為電影描述的就是曾經參與蘇聯建國革命,寫下《震撼世界的十天》現場新聞報導的美國左傾記者約翰.瑞德 (John Reed)的故事。俄國共產黨奪權成功、改朝換代,都因為他人在莫斯科和聖彼得堡現場採訪,所以有了英文的書寫紀錄。身為一位記者,他見証了歷史;做為一位工人運動的信仰者,他也目擊了工人革命從理論的到實踐的過程。然而,理想歸理想,現實歸現實,在共產「國際歌(The Internationale)」的澎湃煽情下,人們都願意獻身,然而接下來的權力分配和利益競逐,卻也註定使得理想主義者的美夢逐一幻滅。
國際歌到底有多煽情?乍見國際歌讓人沸騰的能量,就可以明白為什麼國民黨當年要禁演此片,因為那股熱情能量,不但撼搖了帝俄政權,也可能撼動其他國家,於是禁演就是避免政治紛爭的最便捷道路。
wiki上對國際歌的描述:
國際歌(法文:L'Internationale)是國際社會主義運動中最著名的一首歌。這首歌也曾經是世界上最被廣泛傳唱的歌曲之一。原文(法語)的歌詞由歐仁·鮑狄埃(1816年-1887年)在1871年所作(當時用馬賽曲的曲調演唱),皮埃爾·狄蓋特(1848年-1932年)於1888年為其譜曲。這首歌被翻譯成世界上的許多種語言。傳統上,唱國際歌時常舉手握拳致意。國際歌不僅僅被共產主義者所傳唱,而且在很多國家中的社會主義者和社會民主黨人中也廣泛流傳。在1989年天安門學生工人運動(六四事件)中,這首歌被作為被壓迫者的戰歌。
不免俗的,放幾段影片讓大家瞧瞧。所謂
樂器是槍,歌聲是子彈。
就自己體驗吧!

Coldplay - Viva La Vida
Although there are both positive and negative comments from the internet,
but i just love the rhyme and lyric.
Enjoy!
I used to rule the world
Seas would rise when I gave the word
Now in the morning I sleep alone
Sweep the streets I used to own
I used to roll the dice
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
Listen as the crowd would sing:
"Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!"
One minute I held the key
Next the walls were closed on me
And I discovered that my castles stand
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand
I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
Once you go there was never, never an honest word
That was when I ruled the world
(Ohhh)
It was the wicked and wild wind
Blew down the doors to let me in.
Shattered windows and the sound of drums
People couldn't believe what I'd become
Revolutionaries wait
For my head on a silver plate
Just a puppet on a lonely string
Oh who would ever want to be king?
I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
I know Saint Peter won't call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world
(Ohhhhh Ohhh Ohhh)
I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
I know Saint Peter will call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world
Oooooh Oooooh Oooooh
