「領悟」 是一首神歌,
我極度愛這首歌,
尤其每次聽曉琪姐唱,
每次感受都不同,
次次的探索歌詞裡的世界,
到底要受過多大的傷,
才能唱出痛的領悟?
鋪陳、轉折、這歌實在是扣人心弦。
#獻醜了

【桃花開在周杰倫】The Peach Blossom named Jay Chou(English writing below)
上星期的Youtube影片中,我談到周杰倫前世如何修到大桃花,以及桃花和個人財富的關係。
2019年9月11日2300H,久未發新歌的周杰倫推出新歌單曲《說好不哭》,兩天內就破一千萬的流量,刷下華語樂壇的新紀錄,而且在超過十個國家,包括美國、澳洲、韓國、德國、新馬港台等,都衝上了Youtube發燒影片第一名。
相比之下,蔡依林去年年尾推出睽違四年的新專輯,打破了傳統歌手唱情歌的套路,其中七首歌都有概念新穎、議論性極高的MV,但影片流量卻不敵這次「周五」的合作。
我不是蔡依林的歌迷,但她這次為專輯的付出真的讓我刮目相看 - 回顧蔡依林出道至今的「黑歷史」MV《怪美》,邀請吳君如一起拍向80、90年代香港電影致敬的MV《腦公》,邀小S拍的MV《紅衣女孩》,以及今年榮獲台灣金曲獎年度歌曲獎的《玫瑰少年》等等。
我個人很喜歡這首《玫瑰少年》。此歌以轟動一時的「葉永鋕事件」為背後故事:葉永鋕,台灣人,國中生,因不同的性別氣質而遭到同學霸凌,不敢在下課時間去上廁所。十五歲那年,葉永鋕在上課時,提前離開教室去上廁所,後來被發現傷重倒臥血泊中,送醫後不治死亡。(取之:维基百科)
而在今年五月,台灣成為第一個將同性婚姻合法化的亞洲國家,讓《玫瑰少年》更具有代表性。
再看看周杰倫這次的新歌《說好不哭》,如果你也覺得「周杰倫是我的青春」,這MV用的許多「情懷梗」,作詞人方文山,神秘來賓五月天阿信,必會讓你驚喜連連。
對我而言,這首歌延續著周氏情歌的曲風,MV拍法沒有突破,並沒有像蔡依林的專輯有那麽強大的創意和正面能量。
可是蔡依林這次別出心裁,影片流量和賺到的錢也不少,卻依然亞於周杰倫。
這一切的現象隱藏著過去世的因果。
據我根本上師聖尊蓮生活佛開示,周杰倫前世修密教的敬愛法,想必他持了天文數字的敬愛咒。他八字寫著,這一世的寫歌本領就是他修來的眾桃花投影。
這桃花非同凡響,改變了華語樂壇對流行歌的審美觀。這次《說好不哭》的MV流量、新歌銷量等,都名列前茅,新歌上線的24小時內,總銷量548.5萬張,售額1645.6萬元人民幣(S$3.2m)。
蔡依林全身都是重桃花相,但就算如此,她和幾個星期前出新歌《對的時間點》的林俊傑,也完全被周杰倫比下去。
一些聰明的Youtuber在《說好不哭》上線24小時內火速推出了自己的翻唱影片,鋼琴彈奏版,歌詞版等。這是很明智的作法,因為不用花錢就能夠沾個邊,借一借周杰倫的桃花來旺自己。如果周杰倫的八字及歌曲旺他們的八字,就會更有效。
網路搜索,加上娛樂新聞頻道的新聞報導,他們的頻道便會迅速增加訂閱和流量。
寫了這麼多,有三點要提醒大家:
1)有幸得到師尊灌頂的敬愛尊咕嚕咕咧佛母和愛染明王法的同門,請勤修此法。
有眾桃花,貴人顯著,做什麼事情真的會比較容易,賺錢也可以比別人快。我個人的修法領悟,如果抱著利益眾生的菩提心來修,效果會更不可思議。
2) 要賺錢,你速度要快。
錢如流水走很快不等人,你要懂得觀察局勢,學學那些Youtubers的掙錢速度及魄力。如果還是不會, 批八字看風水時,可請教你的師父如何迅速為自己增強桃花。
3)往對的方向,用對的方法努力,能改自己和別人的命
無論你八字中有沒有眾生緣,你要有錢,有敬愛的魅力,你都得努力地去結眾生緣,持續地去佈施,慢慢地去積累。因為再多的眾生緣,也會有用完的一天。
以上的歌手都是努力的典範,包括那些Youtubers。因為努力而產生的影響力,能引導他人改自己的運勢,你的功德可加倍。
不要一日一日地這樣荒廢青春,別把時間都給了家人,而吝於給他人。佈施要用心思,要不然,有一天福報見底時,你和你的家人就會出現資糧荒的現況了。
「聰明人將精力用於預防和積累,而蠢蛋則寄望於補救。」
..........................
In my Youtube video last week, I talked about how Jay Chou cultivated his great Peach Blossoms in his past life and the correlation between your personal wealth and your Peach Blossoms.
On 11 September 2019 2300H, Jay Chou released his much-awaited new song "Won't Cry". His MV crossed 10 millions views within 48 hours on Youtube, setting a new record for Chinese music entertainment scene, and was the #1 trending MV in over 10 countries, including USA, Australia, Korea, Germany, Singapore, Malaysia, Hong Kong and Taiwan. His latest single also crashed Chinese music streaming site QQ music in less than a hour after its release.
In comparison, Jolin Tsai launched her new concept album end of last year, after a hiatus of 4 years. The album broke out of the conventional love ballads typical of Mandopop. 7 songs in this album were launched on Youtube with very creative and artsy music videos, which attracted much online discussion.
Yet the views on her MV cannot be compared with Jay Chou's latest MV.
While I am not a fan of Jolin Tsai, I applaud her effort for this album. The Ugly Beauty MV talks about the criticisms that Jolin Tsai had received since her debut. The Hubby MV was a salute to Hong Kong movies in the 80s & 90s, with Sandra Wu guest starring. Xiao S was also invited for her Lady in Red MV. The song Womxnly won the Song of the Year in this year's Golden Melody Awards, while this album won Album of the Year.
My personal favourite is the song Womxnly, which was inspired by the sensational story of Yeh Yung-chih, a secondary school Taiwanese student who had been long bullied for his perceived effeminate behaviour and thus, never dared to go to the school toilet at break times. One day, just five minutes before school ended, he was found dead in the school’s restroom in a pool of blood at the age of 15.
In May this year, Taiwan became the first Asian country to legalise same-sex marriage and Womxnly became even more symbolic.
Let's now take a look at Jay Chou's new single Won't Cry. If you also think that "Jay Chou is my youth", the many punchlines in this MV, the lyricist Vincent Fang and the mystery guest Ashin of Mayday will have you grinning in surprise.
To me, while this song is not bad and a continuation of Jay Chou's love ballad style, it does not carry as much creativity and positive energy as Jolin Tsai's Ugly Beauty album. Jay Chou's MV was also pretty similar to many of his past MVs. There was no breakthrough.
Yet, beneath all that we have seen till now, is the karma from many past lives.
My Root Guru, His Holiness Living Buddha expounded that in Jay Chou's past life, he practiced the Magnetization Sadhana of Varjayana, and had recited an astronomical number of the mantra of Love and Respect. As stated in his Bazi, his songwriting talent this lifetime is a reflection of his cultivated Peach Blossoms of Mass Appeal.
This is an extraordinary Peach Blossom, as it rewrote the judgment standard of Mandopop. The viewership of Jay Chou's Won't Cry MV and sales volume of the single are just as astounding. Within 24 hours of release, his new song sold 5.485 million copies online and raked in S$3.2million.
The entire physical appearance of Jolin Tsai spells of heavy Peach Blossom of mass appeal. However, with Jay Chou in the picture, both she and JJ Lin Junjie who released a new single The Right Time 3 weeks ago paled in comparison.
Some clever Youtubers quickly uploaded their own covers, in less than 24 hours of Jay Chou's new song release. There were cover songs, piano versions, and lyric version. This is a very smart way of leveraging on Jay Chou's Peach Blossom luck for FREE. Works best if the song and Jay Chou’s Bazi are compatible with their Bazi.
Through online searches and online entertainment channels who report about the covers, the Youtubers get to boost their subscriber volumes and viewership at a much faster rate.
These are the 3 points I wish to highlight to everyone after writing so much:
1) To my fellow Dharma brothers and sisters who are fortunate enough to receive our Root Guru's Dharma empowerment of Kurukullā and Rāgarāja, please cultivate this Sadhana diligently.
When you have Peach Blossom of Mass Appeal, your benefactors are prominent and everything that you do in life gets easily done, even earning money is faster for you. My personal experience is that if you practice this Sadhana with the Bodhicitta heart to benefit sentient beings, the effects will be incredible.
2) If you make money, you must be speedy.
Money waits for no man. You have to know how to observe the situations and learn the money-making speed and drive of those Youtubers. If you do not know how, seek the advise of your Chinese Metaphysics practitioner, when getting your Bazi analysed or Feng Shui audit done.
3)Move in the right direction with the right method, and you can change your life and others' too.
Regardless your Bazi has mass appeal affinity or not, to have money, to have charisma of Love and Respect, you must be diligent in forming mass positive affinities. Learn to give and accumulate your way through. For no matter how many mass affinities you have, they get expedited over time.
The celebrities and Youtubers I mentioned above are examples of diligence.
When your hard work brings you the ability to influence, you will be able to guide others to improve their luck, be it you are conscious of it or not. And that doubles up your merits.
Don't squander your youth by living aimlessly. Don't blindly give all your time to your family and be miserly in giving your time to others.
Constant giving requires thought, otherwise when your good fortune hits rock bottom, you and your family will face a dire drought of life resources.
"The smart one spends his effort in prevention and accumulation, while the fool puts his hope in salvaging. "

A Brand New Day
[VERSE]
Back in the good ol‘ days when we’d be in the arcade all night,
Playin’ our favorite games ‘til the sun brought a new daylight.
We’d be attacking, defending, shootin’ em up, and smashing the arcade machine.
Always losin’ track of time, down to our last dime, totally immersed in the screen.
[PRE-CHORUS]
Down, down, into the ground
Letting the man drag you further down
But ya gotta try before it gets too late
[CHORUS]
A brand new day
Time to start over
A brand new game
Topping the leaderboard
A brand new life
Pressing the reset
A brand new dream
Changing direction
[VERSE 2]
Mem’ries of long ago are beginning to escape my mind.
But it’s that golden age that I’m not gonna leave behind.
The dedication, elation of reachin’ the end is somethin’ that I really need
Filling up my life gauge, for the final stage, stopping once I fin’ly succeed

Lyrics:
[Aminato]
ay yo we keep it real son
將恩惠跟仇恨都撿拾起
針對著 現實的傢伙
我將劍指你
練紙筆 sharp my sword
經驗值 不夠用
金鏈子抵
體現時代的燦爛不跟騙子比
黯淡的傢伙靠經紀 吃爛飯
所以說實力在哪裡(在面子裡)
oh shit dope shit
我持續轉著我的loop
歌詞難產 害怕封鎖
用語都得輾轉
喊著虛假的富 使人反感
前人種的樹
根部交錯出你所能夠走的路
他們削弱了底蘊
我怎麼防守得住呢
所幸他們都愛為了誰最bitch互噴
yo 來自頂 樓的風景
只想佔資源的Shorty不必為那婊子同情了
蹂躪著那些弱的貨色
y’all see we ROOF TOP “MOB” this motherfucker
[John J ]
Damn,so bad
靠北他們不承認我們逐漸壯大
It's true my friend
OK!下賭注玩到這把成功不靠相殺
太多進來的新玩家心態都輕鬆做
不懂新玩法就想做坐下
想拚再多清牌桌
掀開後莊家開大全通殺
真難過 輸到脫褲
沒那屁股玩什麼鬥地主
穿的再酷 開口以為你來自印度?!
搞不清楚 文字才該是衣服
那是門藝術還不進步
我們追求新的高度
現在是黃金世代
我們勵志為榜樣 熊還三餐吃菜
我們不怕失敗 我們衝得太快
我們自成一派 散發王的姿態
[Hook]
Where I'm from
窩在頂樓跟著一起jam, like puff
we jiggy jiggy fuck all the shit ,like ah
[Lil $tummy]
我不住頂樓但我感覺身在頂上
I don’t pop pill也能看到那幅景象
像是內心住了一隻野獸等著解放
跟我作對 你沒看到他們的慘狀
Like shit 我把大便點石成金
They said太多東西腐蝕人心
是金錢還是權力惡魔問你要不要
就算得到一切怎麼還是一笑都不笑
Asking myself, I keeping asking myself
我不再單純那要怎麼keeping it real
壞人長得慈眉善目how can I tell
我不隨便給人欺負這點gotta let you know
Oh yeah, 我只知道我要繼續grinding
這是我的未來我就不要給人決定
成功的果實每天都預習怎麼rolling
總有一天也會像黃金一樣的shining
[Zashō]
Another night 檢討職不職業,到底值不值?
現在才跳入的口舌之爭算遲了,還是不遲?
這世道瞎忙著比爛的總是正氣凜然
總搞得還篳路藍縷的心煩又意亂著
But nah nah nah nah nah aye
世上人阿物啊
是以稀才為貴
只管用信仰且既往的life style
養著堪用的伎倆 till we find out
now ,talk about the future
talk about the game
假藝術之名的舉動
we don’t jam with dat shit
伴隨同溫層的優越感食髓而知味
than you die in the comfort zone
還裝得比誰專業
nam sayin’
at the same time I realize
生命不是拿來奉獻給扮家家酒的狀態
愛辦麻煩 就跟你同類自己扮
we got rhymes we got life like陳幾年的red wine
[Hook]
Where I'm from
窩在頂樓跟著一起jam, like puff
we jiggy jiggy fuck all the shit ,like ah
[LICKONE ]
yeah we put down our mic drop errbody scream
Your bitches talking trash talk that's kinda lame
then you gotta pay more to cover up the shame
Bitch you gotta lay low and remember my name
they keep talk about those hate and fears can feed them alive
someday all those nonsense been discuss will pay up a price
they try to broke down mental health and countless innocent live
I gonna put a trap then tear you down cause I’m a devil, surprise
I set a trap for the diggers my favorite haters
I wanna thank them for spending time and effort
I feel like I'm the ninja who can tamed the nine tail's power
Bust down all people mind who try to ruin my happy hour
they all try to go back to the golden age
but wait they are still wearing those gold are fake
time is running out better craved out the jade
Shoutout all my legends are still undead
[Teddy]
一個個喊者peace and love 把hip-hop說的頭頭是道
撕掉玻璃面具 上面寫著中國製造
避開那些辭藻成就你們生存之道
反正跪著沒人知道錢的味道還更重要
What 讓我們回到原點
激動的心跳跟著每個鼓點boom bap
像是初戀 漸漸出現 努力裝酷點
設計每個 字裡行間 成敗得失 談吐之間
之前 開始押韻之前
耳機偷偷放著參劈 頭都不敢跟著點
之後 開始押韻之後
Real talk教會我一切的那正是老莫
從每個歌詞 韻腳中學哲理
變成老學校和新學校的结合體
鞋盒里堆滿舊的歌詞 舊的相片
現在最重要的是那條項鏈 刻著RTM
[Hook]
Where I'm from
窩在頂樓跟著一起jam, like puff
we jiggy jiggy fuck all the shit ,like ah
[ZacRao]
SAY 'Roof top' 就像黃金年代的 2 PAC
拉緊你的鞋帶 不要露出你的褲襪 不再互相 辱罵 嘻哈不是只有存在於 木柵
又是誰躲在頂樓 想當個 T O P 我們像隻烏龜努力爭一口氣 寫下傳奇 寫下一首 龜兔賽跑 然後紀錄在伊索寓言裡
直到去年底 我們靠著聖誕打出了 就連你 都為之驚艷 之新鮮的屌貨 還不快 去撿你 的耳機 再聽一次 然後設個捷徑 放在螢幕 角落
我們沒再跟你瞎攪和 嘴再臭也沒 有比你的 腳臭 你聽的歌少的像是白紙 我以為手機跟你頭髮一樣被拿去漂過

繼 2018 年金音獎入圍的《炮打司令部》後,中文嘻哈界絕無僅有的共產主義饒舌歌手鍾翔宇與英國製作人 Ransom-Notes 馬不停蹄地聯手炮製出六首歌的新專輯《星星之火》,相較於上張專輯還有如〈保力達B〉、〈偶像的手冊〉等比較詼諧幽默的歌曲,這張專輯顯得更加嚴肅而深入的闡述自己的意識形態。
即使如此,這張專輯並沒有流於自我重複的說教,而是透過自己在美國成長過程親眼目睹的(台灣媒體跟好萊塢電影不告訴你的)具體事實,鍾翔宇戳破所謂的「美國夢」,一層一層爬梳嘻哈音樂如何失去最初的反抗精神、分析爭取勞動權益的困境甚至環保議題。很難想像這麼龐大的知識量被鍾翔宇精巧的放在一張不到 20 分鐘的專輯當中,這樣大膽的嘗試絕對值得你靜下心搭配歌詞細細玩味。搭配 Ransom-Notes 充滿黃金年代風格的編曲,讓嚴肅的歌詞不再難以下嚥。而鍾翔宇精心設計的多韻和不時的好笑 punchline,也展現他想讓歌曲直面普羅大眾的誠意。
批判美國的霸權和當今的社會經濟制度等於動搖了非常多人的基本信念,鍾翔宇也深知這一點。然而看到不公不義的事實而站出來發聲,這是讓鍾翔宇之所以愛上嘻哈的浪漫初衷。《星星之火》這張專輯就如同他的偶像,英國嘻哈詩人 Lowkey 的 “Soundtrack to the Struggle” 一樣,是貨真價實的革命之聲,所有真心想衝破世界當今所面對的困境的人,肯定能從鍾翔宇的音樂中得到啟發。
Shortly after his 2018 album "Bombard the Headquarters" was nominated best hip hop album by the Golden Indie Music Awards, Xiangyu, one of the few openly communist rappers in the Sinosphere, together with his comrade Ransom-Notes from the UK, began working on "a Single Spark." In comparison to his previous album, which contains comedic songs like "Paolyta B" and "the Idol's Handbook," "a Single Spark" takes on a more serious tone and delves deeper into Xiangyu's ideology.
Despite the comparatively somber tone, this new album avoids repetitive preaching. Through sharing his personal experiences and the things he saw growing up in the United States, Xiangyu debunks the so-called "American Dream." Using materialist dialectics, he tells us how hip hop has lost its rebellious essence, and also analyzes power dynamics and touches on topics such as the environment. It is difficult to imagine how Xiangyu and Ransom-Notes were able to condense such a vast expanse of knowledge into an album less than 20 minutes in length. You will not be disappointed should you decide to sit down and listen to such a bold album while studying the lyrics. Reminiscent of hip hop's golden age, Ransom-Notes' beatmaking provides the listener with the sugar that makes the pill easier to swallow. Xiangyu's carefully constructed rhymes and the occasional humorous punch line demonstrate his sincere attempt to make his agitprop more accessible to the layperson.
Criticizing US hegemony and the socioeconomic order of today is tantamount to shattering the fundamental beliefs of many, and Xiangyu is acutely aware of this. The fact that hip hop can serve as a platform for pointing out injustices is what attracted Xiangyu to the genre in the first place. "A Single Spark" is similar to "Soundtrack to the Struggle" by Lowkey, one of Xiangyu's influences, in the sense that it is truly revolutionary in content. Those who genuinely seek to transform the predicaments plaguing our world today will certainly find inspiration in Xiangyu's music.
