大卫宝儿(David Bowie)秘密抗癌18个月,保密工夫做足没漏出半点风声,不过,大卫离世前数日公开的新歌《Lazarus》MV中,竟出现他在病床上垂死争扎的场面,而歌词亦提及“在天国”及“自由”等字眼,创作时已患病的他,似在透过音乐作出死亡预告!

《Lazarus》首句歌词便是“Look up here, I'm in heaven”(看这里,我在天国),正正切合大卫已撒手尘寰的事实,“I've got scars that can't be seen”(我有看不见的疤痕),以及“Look up here, man, I'm in danger”(看这里,我身在危险中),似在隐喻自己患上顽疾,“I was living like a king”(我曾活像国王)、“Then I used up all my money”(之后花光了所有钱),就像他的人生写照,最后更多次出现“I'll be free”(我将会自由),甚有即将离开的意味。

歌曲MV亦具有浓厚的死亡色彩,片中大部分时间都是大卫在病床上痛苦争扎的场面,中段他站起来展现招牌舞蹈,稍稍重现其巨星风采,似是向乐迷作最后道别,末段他痛苦地在写字,不难令人联想他在执笔写遗书,最后一幕他走进像极棺材的衣柜里作结,感觉十分悲伤。

《Lazarus》歌词全文

Look up here, I'm in heaven

I've got scars that can't be seen

I've got drama, can't be stolen

Everybody knows me now

Look up here, man, I'm in danger

I've got nothing left to lose

I'm so high it makes my brain whirl

Dropped my cell phone down below

Ain't that just like me

By the time I got to New York

I was living like a king

Then I used up all my money

I was looking for your ass

This way or no way

You know, I'll be free

Just like that bluebird

Now ain't that just like me

Oh I'll be free

Just like that bluebird

Oh I'll be free

Ain't that just like me
