bonfire05.jpg又是一年homecoming weekend。昨天下午全部被耗去批卷子,一直到晚上8点,吝啬的俩教授居然不给我们买pizza吃-_-,还错过了系里人的bonfire preparty,还好出去正好赶上bonfire点火。还是校长球队代表讲话,还是不遗余力的打压比赛的对手,今年是columbia,然后点燃bonfire,新生绕着火跑,老生和校友在周围围着起哄,一切都似乎和去年一样,只是火上的数字从08变成了09。有点恍惚,这么快都过去了一年,就和这bonfire一样,生活似乎没有什么太大变化,有点失败的感觉,也许未来的四年也都是如此?回到家打开电视正好MTV台开始放Madonna: I’m Going to Tell You a Secret,是关于她去年的Re-Invention Tour的一部记录片,虽然她那次巡演主题的宗教和政治意味非常强,但看上去仍然是一场非常精彩的演出。片子里的Madonna显得非常睿智非常清醒非常人性,当然不排除片子专门美化她的嫌疑,但确实给人一种很positive的感觉。她在狂宣扬宗教Kabbalah,但是她信教的态度是我赞赏的,清醒自己信的原因,不把它无限拔高。MTV显然也非常给Madonna面子,居然完全不中断的连续放完这个两小时的片子,这是我第一次看到MTV台完全不插广告。这个记录片本身也确实非常的好看,剪辑编辑都是一流,中间穿插的演唱会现场有些编辑的非常非常的好看,像那首Nobody knows me,歌词闪烁着,now I’m gonna try to improve my life,让我张着嘴痴迷的看完然后默骂一声“这歌也太他妈的积极励志了”。

NOBODY KNOWS ME

I’ve had so many lives
since I was a child
And I realize
How many times I’ve died

I’m not that kind of guy
Sometimes I feel shy
I think I can fly
Closer to the sky

No ones telling you how to live your life
But it’s a setup until you’re fed up

This world is not so kind
People trap your mind
It’s so hard to find
Someone to admire

I sleep much better at night
I feel closer to the light
Now I’m gonna try
To improve my life

No ones telling you how to live your life
But it’s a setup until you’re fed up

It’s no good when you’re misunderstood
But why should I care?
What the world thinks of me
Won’t let a stranger
Give me a social disease

Nobody, nobody knows me
Nobody knows me
Nobody knows me
Like you know me

I don’t want no lies
I don’t watch TV
I don’t waste my time
Won’t read a magazine

I sleep much better at night
I feel closer to the light
Now I’m gonna try
To improve my life
