Ray Of Light

Zephyr in the sky at night I wonder,
Do my tears of mourning sink beneath the sun?
She's got herself a universe gone quickly,
For the call of thunder threatens everyone.

And I feel like I just got home,
And I feel.
And I feel like I just got home,
And I feel.

Faster than the speeding light she's flying,
Trying to remember where it all began.
She's got herself a little piece of heaven,
Waiting for the time when earth shall be as one.

Quicker than a ray of light,
Quicker than a ray of light,
Quicker than a ray of light.

And I feel,
Quicker than a ray of light,
Then gone for,
Someone else shall be there,
Through the endless years.

She's got herself a universe,
She's got herself a universe,
She's got herself a universe.

And I feel,
And I feel,
And I feel like I just got home.
And I feel.

Quicker than a ray of light she's flying.
Quicker than a ray of light I'm flying.

時光飛逝，去年這個時候身在東京巨蛋，正期待著Madonna的演出。眨眼間又一年。這首歌陪伴渡過那些身在的士夠格的晚上，還有那次在彩雲村的通宵牌局。那些擦身而過的人，經已煙沒在歲月的塵土下；牌桌上的人，也有些早已面目模糊，連名字也不大想得起。

〈Ray Of Light〉單曲收錄於1998年Madonna專輯《Ray Of Light》，藍色的專輯封面上藍色衣服配襯一把金黃色頭髮，側看的表情酷得很。睽違樂壇數年，這張專輯是娜姐當年的漂亮come back，更一舉摘下最佳流行專輯等共三個格林美獎項。

由慢而靜的前奏開始，隨著日出引入強勁急促的節奏，畫面換上川流不息的汽車和人潮，最後在晚上瘋狂的舞動下結束了一天，地球仍舊繼續高速運轉。非常喜歡〈Ray Of Light〉本來的編曲和MV。去年在《Confessions Tour》現場聽到，雖然修改了編曲，但配合眩目的燈光和視像效果，舞蹈員的動作和娜姐一身黑色的打扮，一樣令人興奮莫名。
