活到中途才發現沒有出路只剩孤獨
好聽★★★★★
一鳴驚人吉爾伯特歐沙利文的這首"Alone Again (Naturally)"太悲傷也太無助，說的就是一個人爬到頂樓要跳樓不成到了教堂被人議論紛紛一定是被女友拋棄最主要的是這世上沒人注意到他包括上帝當父親死時他大哭母親死時他又大哭確定了這生他就是破碎的一個人只剩孤獨。這首歌得過排行榜六周冠軍和年終亞軍真的是不管任何人聽了都會喜歡上的歌就算是不同背景或不同角度，尤其它的旋律是那麼地沒有修飾毫無瑕疵簡單乾淨又純樸，主歌副歌叨絮著整個悲傷過程三分四十秒一路沒有重複，沒有人能停下來不聽完他真實的聲音發自內心深處，那就是每個人都會有的陰暗一面包括了絕望懷疑被棄徬徨無從與憤怒，原來活到中途才發現人生沒有出路只有孤獨，到最後不是要不要堅強而是要不要痛快地哭一哭，我們每個人要面對的不是感受周遭的溫度而是自己要拿出什麼走下去的態度。
