你向外在世界呈现了一切,
透露你的所有喜好,
藏着你的与众不同;
以各种不一样,
在这个缤纷世界留下你的印记。
我们每个人,
都有着自己的私人空间,
独家记忆。
比如你,
读过的书,衣着发型,
朋友圈里的背景图,
个性签名,
还有,
循环千百遍的歌曲。
或许手机换了,音乐软件变了,
但总会,
在第一时间重新下载回来的那种。
今天,想跟大家分享几首英文歌。

Almost lover(恋人未满)

推荐理由
人生有八苦:
生,老,病,死,爱别离,
怨长久,求不得,放不下。
Almost
无限的接近可能,
唱出的本质确是永远不可能;
听完之后,
你可以看看汤唯和廖凡
主演的电影《命中注定我爱你》。
Yellow
不是Coldplay的原唱,
慵懒萎靡的女声却更能入心动人。
