奥 華子
楔 －くさび－
作詞 : 奥 華子
作曲 : 奥 華子
日文歌詞：
終電後の誰もいない道に 二人の悲しげな一つの影
もう二度ともう二度と会わないと 心に誓い合った夏の夜
ただ傍にいるだけで笑い合えた そんな日が続いてくと信じていた
あなたを嫌いになるくらいなら このまま二人で夜になりたい
最後の口づけ 触れるだけで痛いよ
愛しい気持ちが溢れて 貴方を壊す前に
抱きしめて 貴方の腕で あと1秒だけでもこうしていたい
もう喧嘩する事も もうやきもち焼く事も
もう顔を見る事さえ出来なくなるの
不思議だね どうして人はすぐに 守れない約束をするのだろう
人の心を繋ぎ止めるものなど どこにもないと知っているのに
最後の言葉が 優しすぎて痛いよ
二人はお互いのこと分かりすぎてしまった
抱き寄せて 私の胸に 子供のような貴方の髪を撫でたい
もう横で笑う事も もう横で眠る事も
もう名前を呼ぶ事さえ出来なくなるの
心を繋ぎ止められるものは約束じゃない
約束は自分への気休めなのだろうか･･･
抱きしめて 貴方の腕で あと1秒だけでもこうしていたい
もう喧嘩する事も もうやきもち焼く事も
もう顔を見る事さえ出来ないのなら
もう会いたくなっても もう息が出来なくても
貴方を呼ばないと約束するから
貴方を呼ばないと約束するから
中文翻譯：
最後一班電車之後的寂靜路上,
一個人影子卻反映著兩個人的悲傷
在那一個夏天的夜晚,我立定決心以後也不再見你.
絕對,絕對不要再見.
我當時相信,只要在你身邊就可以快樂.
今夜就讓我們這樣吧,直到我不再喜歡你為止.
最後的一吻,雖只是輕輕碰到,但已經狠狠地刺傷我了.
在我決意忘掉你之前.我的愛已經滿溢了.
可以抱我嗎? 用你的雙臂 就算只餘下一秒也好
就連和你吵架 就連妒嫉你,甚至見你一面也不可以……
說起來真的很奇怪呢, 為什麼人總是作出不可能實現的承諾?
明明早知道連著心的線,早就已經切斷了….
你最後的說話.實在太溫柔了,令我更加心痛呢
我們兩個人都太了解對方了.
可以抱我嗎?可以躺在我胸前,讓我在母親般摸摸你的頭髮嗎?
就連在你旁邊微笑,就連睡在你身邊,就連呼叫你的名字也做不到了…
我和你的約定,不是要切斷連著我和你的線
只是答應你,我會安靜下來吧..
可以緊緊抱著你嗎? 用你的雙臂 就算只餘下一秒好
就連和你吵架 就連妒嫉你,甚至見你一面也不可以……
就算多麼想見你也好, 就算不能呼吸也好.
我答應過不再叫喚你
我們約好了,所以我不會再叫喚你的…
愛してた

《阿信的故事》... it will be a great movie!
阿信, Oshin, おしん
當年，從日本紅遍亞洲、家喻戶曉的電視劇《阿信的故事》，將籌拍電影，於明年的三十週年紀念上映。故事主角阿信，生長在山形縣最上川上游的赤貧農家，七歲開始幫傭。她的一生相當於日本經濟發展的成長史縮影，見證了從明治、大正到昭和，三個時代的文明演進。 這次電影版將由2008 年，獲得美國金球獎最佳外語片《送行者》『おくりびと』的製片公司松竹映画（Sedic International）負責。 仍保有日本原始自然風貌的山形縣鶴岡市庄內地方，是原劇中阿信的故鄉。電影將以庄內電影村外景為主，全片都將在山形縣境內取景。 電影版《阿信》將以童年阿信的故事為主。飾演阿信的演員會於日本全國公開募集五至十歲的兒童參加試鏡，經驗不拘，再從中挑出合適人選。至今已有1500人應募，其中有300人是來自東北地區的，最終面試將於本月尾舉行。 童星選角確定後，明年一月開拍，預計二月殺青完工，並在年中上映。挾當年《阿信》橫掃東南亞、台灣的佳績，這次海外上映也將對準亞洲市場。 這電影讓我們再一次看到小阿信克服重重困難，絕不放棄、努力活下來的身影，敬請期待作品的完成哦！！ 松竹映画：http://www.sedic.co.jp/

Je Ne Veux Pas Travailler - Pink Martini (to Feh!!)
Ma chambre a la forme d'une cage
Le soleil passe son bras par la fenêtre
Les chasseurs à ma porte
Comme des petits soldats
Qui veulent me prendre
{Refrain:}
Je ne veux pas travailler
Je ne veux pas déjeuner
Je veux seulement oublier
Et puis je fume
Déjà j'ai connu le parfum de l'amour
Un millions de roses
N'embaumeraient pas autant
Maintenant une seule fleur
Dans mes entourages
Me rend malade
{au Refrain}
Je ne suis pas fière de ça
Vie qui veut me tuer
C'est magnifique
Etre sympathique
Mais je ne le connais jamais

Je ne suis pas fière de ça
