donuts and nuts

早排立法會選舉期間, 特登搵咗由木村拓哉擔嘅日劇”Change” 嚟睇, 太好睇, 三日睇晒十集. 有一個寫到咁嘅戲嘅編劇, 同埋有一班有質素嘅觀眾支持有深度嘅作品, 日劇未至於沉淪, 多得佢地.

Change嘅主題曲, 揀咗麥當娜嘅Miles Away, 配合番劇中主角由一個只係諗住喺長野接埋教書嘅小學教師, 搖身變成全國敬仰嘅首相嘅心境. 雖然首歌原意係madonna 講佢同老公兩地相思嘅點滴, 但借用喺一個瘋狂社會, 一個人歷盡滄桑, 與別人心靈上似近還遠嘅疏離感, 又出奇地配合 , 成為咗薯仔近排最愛嘅歌.

Madonna – Miles Away.

I just woke up from a fuzzy dream
You never would believe those things that I had seen
I looked in the mirror and I saw your face
You looked right through me, you were miles away

All my dreams they fade away
I’ll never be the same
If you could see me the way you see yourself
I can’t pretend to be someone else

You always love me more, miles away
I hear it in your voice, we’re miles away
You’re not afraid to tell me, miles away
I guess we’re at our best when we’re miles away

So far away
So far away
So far away
So far away
So far away
So far away
So far away
So far away

When no one’s around then I have you here
I begin to see the picture, it becomes so clear
You always have the biggest heart,
When we’re six thousand miles apart

Too much of no sound
Uncomfortable silence can be so loud
Those three words are never enough
When it’s long distance love

You always love me more, miles away
I hear it in your voice, we’re miles away
You’re not afraid to tell me, miles away
I guess we’re at our best when we’re miles away

So far away
So far away
So far away
So far away
So far away
So far away
So far away
So far away

I’m alright, don’t be sorry, but it’s true
When I’m gone you’ll realize
That I’m the best thing that happened to you

You always love me more, miles away
I hear it in your voice, we’re miles away
You’re not afraid to tell me, miles away
I guess we’re at our best when we’re miles a-a-away…

You always love me more, miles away
I hear it in your voice, we’re miles away
You’re not afraid to tell me, miles away
I guess we’re at our best when we’re miles away

So far away
So far away
So far away

做政治人物, 個人意志好多時不能實踐, 唔似做平民時隨心欣欲.

第四集, 講木村想出去一間好受歡迎嘅donut 店, 食新鮮出爐嘅donut, 但因為貴為總理, 貴人事忙, 外去會勞師動眾, 又有美國代表來訪而去不成.

喺套劇入面, 有一句木村經常強調嘅話係, “以國民嘅視線來搞政治”, 木村講嘅時候大聲疾呼, 聲嘶力竭, 七情上面, 幾感人.瀶心風暴之家好月圓 , 破紀錄成五十點. 令我開始懷疑單純用民眾嘅視線來搞政治, 最終會否會淪為民粹主義? 最受大眾歡迎嘅,就只有庸俗不堪嘅嘢呢?

馬英九喺佢嘅書”沉默的魄力”附送嘅DVD錄像, 記錄馬英九曾說要做一個政治家, 不是群眾想要什麼就給什麼, 而是做醫生, 為社會治病.

正所謂苦口良藥, 要醫社會嘅病,  少不免觸及到既得利益集團嘅神經, 換來無理無情嘅反擊.面對困難的政治兩難, 政治家既要機關算盡衡量民意, 又要堅持自己嘅理想, 好多時絞盡腦汁都唔會有兩全之策. 做傳媒, 亦都有類似嘅情況. 要隨波逐流爭讀者同觀眾, 定係堅持自己嘅信念, 身處兩難, 又不能抽身而退, 食住花生等睇戲, 就唯有食多d合桃補吓腦.

人生有時就係咁無奈…但最重要係個種打不死嘅精神, 同埋識得苦中作樂.
