相信大部分聽廣東歌大的八九十後,到27歲的時候,總會想起那段歌詞 :
“霎眼27歲,時日無多,方不敢偷懶, 宏願縱未了 ,奮鬥總不太晚。”
陳奕迅的歌,總是能唱到大家的心底裏面。可能快邁向30之際,我突然驀然回首,望望身邊應該有的,跑車相機金錶都好像還沒有,只對美酒和生活態度有點點堅持和講究。
27歲的那一夜覺醒自己好像未夠努力,也沒有甚麼成就。用我尚有的那團火再奮鬥一番,應該還有機會達成自己人參目標。雖然不知道還剩低幾多時間,還未知道趕不趕得及。但昂貴是這刻,我覺悟了,相信自己同時做更好的自己。
有時命運是有趣的,四月份搞市集的時候毫無預備的上台Free Jam,獻出了生平第一次公眾表演,樂手幫我選了笑忘書和陀飛輪。可算是十個月前送給自己的啟示吧,這兩首混合了血與淚的成長之歌幫我做了一個2019的重要決定。
Many of our generation born during the 80s and 90s will remember the song Tourbillion, by Eason Chan.
It is a song about growing up and realizing we are running out of time, but it is never too late to start chasing our dreams.
Eason’s songs are always relatable. Looking back nearing the end of my 20s, the watches, cars, the luxuries are far from my grasp, but still, I hold fine wines, whisky and my way of life dear to my heart.
On the night I turned 27 it felt like I have achieved nothing, nor have I chased hard enough. Maybe it was fate, but Tourbillion came on while I was working and I thought to myself, maybe it wasn’t too late to light up the fire within me once again and chase after what I really wanted. Though I do not know if I can achieve what I have set for myself within this lifetime, this realization is priceless, and I believe that I can be better.
Life is interesting, I was invited on stage unprepared for a free jam during the Easter fair back in April. It was my first ever time performing publicly. The performer chose “The Book of Laughter and Forgetting” and “Tourbillion”. The two canto-pop songs we grew up with brought upon me a revelation 10 months later, when I made an important decision for 2019.
