自從買了 iPhone 之後,我就一直想找個 dock 把 iPhone 跟床頭音響連起來;但是我不想買已經有附喇叭的 dock,因為原有的床頭音響品質已經夠好了,除非花大錢買高級品,很不划算。
所以我一開始就把目標放在:
僅有 dock 本體 (無音響)
有音源輸出
可充電
有遙控器
僅僅這四點要求,實際找起來卻發現能滿足條件的寥寥無幾:
1號候選人: Apple iPhone 3G Dock 優點: 原廠質感好 缺點: 沒有搖控器
2號候選人: Apple Universal Dock 優點: 原廠質感好 缺點: 搖控器功能簡陋,menu 鍵居然沒有用! (質感大扣分,這點在Amazon的討論區被罵翻了)
3號候選人: Dexim AV Dock Station with Remote Control Dexim 是一家似乎出來沒多久的大陸公司,專做一些走質感路線的多媒體週邊。這個產品在 iLounge 的評價不錯,但除此之外我找不到任何使用心得。 優點: 外型不錯,有 iPhone 認證、有搖控器 缺點: 缺乏資訊,找不到使用者的feedback。台灣買不到、Amazon買不到、其它網站就算能買到運費也很貴,算一算超過3張小朋友。
There we sat among the thousand fools just like us But not so in love like us
There we spoke of all our feelings And dreams were born like that And we hope for love like that
Now your dreams have changed, we're far apart I don't know when or where to start leading you from my mind
I want to stand with you again I hope to find you here again in the eternal sunshine
I'll search for the orange moon that lit up our love on the ocean while i held your hand
Now watch all the waves from the stones where we gazed to the golden sun
If i see the horizon glow just the same as it did when we stood on the hill I'll make the arrangements, just wait on that corner for me If you drop me a line I'll be sure to make these arrangements
Lay your head upon my shoulder I'll sing a tune or three Sweet melodies for thee
Softly speak to say what i meant Why do you leave My heart is at your sleeve
Well I'd like to share three words again practise these words with you again if you think is possible and maybe i can pull you close whisper in your ear again that i want you in my life forever
I'll search for the orange moon that lit up our love on the ocean while i held your hand
Now watch all the waves from the stones where we gazed to the golden sun
If i see the horizon glow just the same as it did when we stood on the hill I'll make the arrangements, just wait on that corner for me
You're like summer rain that cools me, it sooths me You are the person that I pray for every day
Maybe we'll sit on those stairs once again Maybe we won't turn down have to pretend You will be here in my imaginings, they’re imaginings I'll search for the orange moon that lit up our love on the ocean while i held your hand
Now watch all the waves from the stones where we gazed to the golden sun
If i see the horizon glow just the same as it did when we stood on the hill I'll make the arrangements, just wait on that corner for me If you drop me a line I'll be sure to make these arrangements If you drop me a line I'll be sure to make these arrangements
許多人說陶喆的聲音很虛,說得精確一點,我想他們是指陶喆的聲音很薄;沒錯,但是聽聽這首「不一樣」的低音部分,其實他本人的低音 (包括講話音在內) 是很厚的。 陶喆在中高音的發音方面有其獨特的方法,一般人模仿起來的話,通常都會只剩鼻音跟金屬音而已,所以聽起來既薄又不自然;類似的發音方法,在某些西方歌手身上也聽得到,比如說動畫「Cars」裡面的主題曲「Life is a Highway」。 也許就是因為天生低音,用頭腔共鳴時就能同時保有一定的厚度跟高度,在這些人身上,持續發出這種不像是他所能唱出的聲音,似乎是一件很容易的事情? 陶喆在控制聲音方面,簡直是出神入化,而他也是少數從低到高音域都能保持「自然」的歌手,因此穩居我排行榜上的第一名。「不一樣」的音域從低到高,連vocal也包含在內,非常適合用來欣賞陶喆的「控音」技巧,聽聽看。
