停辦了幾年的中國時報年度娛樂十大,今年復辦。先說說讓我失望的華語專輯部分,名單取向似乎有主流、非主流各半之感(雖然蘇打綠的亮眼銷售有打破此說),而兩張製作用心、概念清楚、市場反應不賴的專輯:Tizzy Bac《我想你會變成這樣都是我害的》、1976《耳機裡的新浪潮》卻是連遺珠都沾不上,叫人家黃健為、KbN該怎麼辦?(幸好林生祥還有被提到)西洋專輯部分因為有太多專輯了,每次選可能每次都會不一樣,所以看看就好。其中個人最愛的大概就是Thom Yorke了吧,雖然一樣是Radiohead電氣化,但飽滿度甚高;Beck這張有點平,還是上一張好;Justin Timberland已經很難把他當偶像看待,玩的元素愈來愈豐富很酷;Scissor Sisters是(不想)跳舞的High歌,但不符合我的痛所以不常放;YO LA TENGO開創出近年來難得的十補大全集,從第一首聽到最後一首,可以把他們的脈絡聽完,雖然我喜歡Summer Sun那樣的風格多一點,不過身為粉絲這張怎可錯過(現正聽的是Mr. Tough,超可愛的是吧)。

Yo La Tengo / Mr. Tough
Hey Mr. Tough
Don't you think we've suffered enough?
Why don't you meet me on the dancefloor
When it's time-to-time time?
And if you need to tell me something once
You won't have to say it twice
And if you ask for a nickel
I'm gonna hand you a dime
And we'll forget about our problems at home
For a little while
And leave our worries in the corner
Leave them in a big big pile
Pretend everything can be alright
Hey Mrs. Blue
Time to think of something new
We pause from spinning our hits
The old soft shoe
And if you wanna lose the rest of the night
There's nothing better I have to do
And if I tell you something
You won't have to ask if it's true
And we'll forget about our problems at home
For a little while
And leave our worries in the corner
Leave them in a big big pile
Pretend everything can be alright
Alone and uptight
On a Saturday night
?? by the room
I'm hiding in a crowded party
The records playing
For just me and you
