Imagine there's no Heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today
Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace
You may say that I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one
Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world
You may say that I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one

这一首one of John Lennon's most popular songs, 曾经 leading 了一两个时代, 影响着几代人。
压榨, 欺凌下, carringing on 沉重的锁链, 亦或是被 trapped 在铁窗黑屋里(whether 是有形的, 还是心理上的), 疲惫少年的微弱, 却是发自内心和灵魂深处(否则也不可能打动全世界那么多的心灵, 并爆发出如此强烈的人性共鸣的吧?)的颤动和呻吟。
大概更因着超强的和谐, 和无以伦比的透明度, 也才会产生出如此难以抗拒的射杀, 感染和俘获力吧?
Sounds so rebellious 悖逆, 反叛, 从天堂怀疑到国家, 更到地上的拥有。但背后深深的痛和找不到光和亮的哀告 (只能be a dreamer, doing IMAGINation),
却也是实实在在, 无法忽视的 (whether they choose 吸毒, 酗酒, 还是跳楼, or without much choices, but suffering young broken-hearted 心碎, 心悸, or even 心跳突然停止), 是吗?

甚至从这首本该是快乐, 轻松的Christmas Song 里面, 也能让人品出些伤感和控诉的味道, 是吗?

John & Yoko,
疲惫挣扎的他/她们, 终于找到了一片宁静的栖息地和可以停靠的港湾
是爱情, 也成了东西方文化的完美交融
