昨 晚看電視見到有人扮Diana Ross("Queen of Motown", "Female Entertainer of the century", "#38 of Greatest Women of Rock n Roll"),可是是由那一個節目中最「乞人憎」那個人去扮。她絕對扮得到Diana的形,但卻扮不到Diana的實,節目的主持人也說扮的那個人缺乏了 Diva Style。今早的巴士車程都在聽iPod裡Diana Ross的歌,多麼的舒服,她的歌可說是早晨的歌。第一次聽Diana的歌是在親友留下的黑膠唱片,一直到現在都沒有擁有過她的CD。她似乎只存在於黑膠 年代,因為只有黑膠唱片才能捕捉得到Motown的聲音。

曾在電視看過Diana Ross的電影,一個黑人天后在七十年代可以擔正做女主角,在高加索人當道的荷里活可說絕無僅有。縱使她的電影沒有一套是流芳百世,但電影中的歌卻令人印象深刻。

她主唱的主題曲Do You Know Where You're Going To,今天再聽,就算這不是我最喜歡的音樂類型,仍然動聽。

Do you know where you're going to?
Do you like the things that life is showing you?
Where are you going to? Do you know?
Do you get what you're hoping for,
When you look behind you theres no open door?
What are you hoping for? Do you know?
Once we were standing still in time,
Chasing the fantasies that filled our minds.
You knew how I loved you, but my spirit was free
Laughing at the questions that you once asked of me.
Do you know where you're going to?
Do you like the things that life is showing you?
Where are you going to? Do you know?
Now looking back at all we've had,
We let so many dreams just slip through our hands.
Why must we wait so long before we see,
How sad the answers to those questions can be?
Do you know where you're going to?
Do you like the things that life is showing you?
Where are you going to? Do you know?
Do you get what you're hoping for,
When you look behind you theres no open door?
What are you hoping for? Do you know?

發生在我仍未出生的1975。

為我村提供小巴服務的公司,可算最一毛不拔。他們用的小巴是二手紅色小巴,是一些已經舊到開始出問題的車。舒適程度不消說了,反而最令人擔心的是安全問題。今早上班竟然發現有一架新的小巴提供服務,是一架燃氣的新小巴。
