創作故事

要來分享的是我自己的故事，不知道正在收聽的你沒有自己的一個夢想，以前寫作文的時候，常常都會寫到一個題目叫我的夢想，我有時看到FB的連結，都看到我同齡的同學或是朋友，好像都很棒職業，有的當老師，有的當醫生，有的開店創業當老闆，但我常常在想，我好像不是這些領域的優秀人才，也常常自我懷疑是不是走錯方向或對人生很迷惘，這些職業好像都是跟我沒關係，在人生旅途中不斷地載浮載沉，就是一個沒有光引導的謎航船帆，到處漂流，曾漂流到Starbucks去做咖啡藝術師，十年的歲月裡，認識了各行各業的人，也開始探索了自己的可能性，記得小時最喜歡唱歌，常常拿著錄音機玩，高中的時候在上課時逼著同學聽我在桌子底下聽唱歌，下課後唱片行也成了我的遊樂場所，什麼音樂都聽，心靈音樂、華語流行音樂、日文音樂、法式沙發音樂、台語歌、英文歌，到最近的kpop，以前因為很喜歡唱歌，所以都跑去參加歌唱比賽但偶而幾次太過緊張就棄賽烙跑，原本有機會有音樂老師想培訓我去念音樂班，因為家裡反對後就沒有往這一條路走而音樂就成為了工作背後的背景音樂，不再幻想有一天可以走進音樂世界，就這樣，一般人一樣的生活，就在Starbucks工作，內部設計比賽都會參加，之前，公司有國際性綠圍裙大賽，就跑去參加並且入圍台灣區，後來也有參加地球環保日的隨行杯手繪比賽，漸漸發現對藝術創作有莫名喜愛，對於聽覺與視覺感受特別強烈，而且每天都可以聽音很多的音樂，如：爵士樂音樂、獨立音樂….，透過這樣環境洗禮後，以為我愛上了畫畫，就跑去唸商品設計系研究所，希望有一天能成為平面設計師，天天都可以畫畫，後來，短暫兼差接觸藝術相關工作後，發覺被客戶追趕要設計稿，開始沒有靈感也不畫不出快樂的心，最後就辭掉藝術工作，繼續埋首我的學業，寫論文，有寫過論文的人都知道過程中超難熬，寫論文時我被老師退件不符合他的期待而卡住半年沒寫，一直很想放棄，而真正影響我而改變音樂第二人生的是一場五月天的演唱會，當時看到吉他手怪獸彈在彈奏電吉他solo當下而留下了眼淚，因為感受到旋律裡彷彿喚醒我內心聲音，說著：快回來音樂世界裡玩，之後沒多久，我就真的闖進音樂的殿堂，開始了電吉他的生活，當時，還是個窮學生兼打工族，肩負著房租及生活費外幾乎沒餘費用可以學音樂，還好，有個超貼心的麻吉弟弟，替我付第一期的學費後便開始了我音樂之路，然而每一個月我都要繳學費才能上下一期的課程，所以當交完這期學費後我就得開始想辦法在另存下一筆學費，而存50元銅幣是最不會有壓力的方法，少吃一餐就可以每天存，然後一直存，存到一個月後，就可以繳下一期學費繼續學習，就這樣，一晃眼，學了五年時光，而這個習慣卻成為了我對音樂態度與堅持的恆心，陸陸續續開始創作自己的音樂，也加學了詞曲創作、鋼琴、爵士鼓、編曲、混錄音，到目前為止，還在持續堅持學習中，依舊還是很多挫折，我記得曾經聽過別人分享，在音樂的路上，要具備三個條件：1.愛音樂，第二個：熱情熱血、第三個：挫折特別多，雖然挫折特別多但這些都是成長的養分，只期許自己能變成全方位音樂創作，為寫自己的歌，把生活的感受與能量，寫成故事寫成歌來療癒自己也可以療癒別人。

這首歌曾一度難產，歌詞在2014寫完，但歌經歷了七年之久到2021年我才真正完整地完成，過程中一直尋找思維接近的音樂人指導、修正，不斷地修改歌詞，討論音樂風格、創作、由專業音樂人協助作曲也一起討論編曲。一首貼近自己人生歷練的歌曲，很多人問我，為什麼叫『50。more』，50代表的是五十元，Ｍore，代表的是很多很多，諧音，解釋是『夢』，50 more就是五十夢（也算是一個音樂魔力），也有另一個解釋 『午食，夢』，用餐費存下了音樂的夢想，希望在音樂的路上，可以分享更多的音樂生活故事，療癒心靈，也希望可以用自己的力量，幫助更多在音樂路上正在迷路的人。

Create a story

What I want to share is my own story. I don’t know that you who are listening to you don’t have a dream of your own. When writing articles before, I often wrote about a topic called my dream. Sometimes I saw the FB link and I read it all. My classmates or friends of the same age seem to have great careers, some as teachers, some as doctors, and some as shop owners and bosses, but I often think that I don’t seem to be an outstanding talent in these fields, and I often become myself. I wonder if I’m going in the wrong direction or I’m confused about life. These professions seem to have nothing to do with me. During the journey of life, I am constantly floating and sinking. It is a mysterious sail without light guidance, drifting everywhere, once drifting to Starbucks. As a coffee artist, I have met people from all walks of life in the past ten years, and I have also begun to explore my own possibilities. I remember that I like to sing when I am young, and I often play with a tape recorder. When I was in high school, I forced my classmates to listen. I listened to singing under the table. After class, the record shop became my playground. I listened to all kinds of music, such as soul music, Chinese pop music, Japanese music, French sofa music, Taiwanese songs, English songs, to the nearest k-pop, I used to love singing, so I ran to participate in singing competitions, but occasionally I was too nervous and abandoned the competition. There was a chance that a music teacher wanted to train me to go to music classes because after my family opposed it, I didn’t go this way and music became the background music behind my work. I no longer imagined that I could enter the world of music one day. The average person lives in Starbucks and participates in internal design competitions. Previously, the company had an international green apron competition, so I ran to participate and was shortlisted in Taiwan. Later, I also participated in the hand-painting competition of the accompanying cup on Earth Environmental Day. I gradually discovered I have an inexplicable love for artistic creation. I have a strong sense of hearing and vision, and I can listen to a lot of music every day, such as jazz music, indie music… After being baptized in this environment, I thought I fell in love with painting. I went to study at the Institute of Commodity Design, hoping to become a graphic designer one day, and I could paint every day. Later, after a short part-time job with art-related work, I found that I was chased by a client and asked for a design draft. At first, I couldn’t draw without inspiration. Happy heart, finally quit my art job, continue to bury my studies and write a thesis. Anyone who has written a thesis knows that the process is extremely difficult. When writing the thesis, I was rejected by the teacher, which did not meet his expectations, and stuck for half a year. I didn’t write, I always wanted to give up, And what really affected me and changed the music of Second Life was a Mayday concert. At that time, I saw the guitarist monster playing the electric guitar solo and left tears because I felt the melody as if to awaken my inner voice, said Written: Come back to the music world to play. Not long after that, I really broke into the music hall and started the life of the electric guitar. At that time, I was a poor student and working family, and I was shouldering rent and living expenses with almost no extra expenses. I can learn music. Fortunately, there is a super caring brother Mo Ji who started my music journey after paying the first tuition for me. However, I have to pay tuition every month to go to the next course, so when After paying this tuition fee, I have to start to think of a way to save the next tuition fee and deposit 50 yuan copper coin is the least stressful way. You can save it every day if you eat one less meal, and then keep saving until one month later. , You can pay the next tuition to continue studying. Just like that, I have studied for five years, and this habit has become my perseverance towards music attitude and persistence.

I started to create my own music one after another. I also learned songwriting, piano, jazz drums, arranging, and mixing recording. So far, I still continue to learn, and there are still many setbacks. I remember once listening to other people’s sharing. On the road of music, three conditions must be met: 1. Love music, second: passion and blood, and third: setbacks are particularly numerous. Although there are many setbacks, these are all nutrients for growth. I only hope that I can become a full range. Music creation is to write one's own songs, to write the feelings and energy of life into stories, and write songs to heal oneself and others.

This song was once difficult to give birth to. The lyrics were written in 2014, but it took me seven years to complete the song in 2021. In the process, I was looking for the guidance and correction of musicians with close thinking, constantly revising the lyrics, and discussing the music. The style, creation, and composition assisted by professional musicians are also discussed together. A song close to my life experience, many people asked me why it was called "50. "more", 50 means fifty yuan, More, means many, many, homophonic, the explanation is "dream", 50 more is fifty dreams (also regarded as a musical magic), there is another explanation "lunch, dream" "The meal expenses have saved the dream of music. I hope that on the way to music, I can share more stories of music life and heal the soul. I also hope that I can use my own power to help more people who are lost on the road of music.

歌詞：

當人生藍圖 夢想的 碎片 繽紛的節奏 拼湊彩虹道路

金色的輝煌 耀眼而 閃亮 乘著風的 白雲 吹向那遠方

當眼神發光 甜甜的微笑 唱出堅定美好的 fifty more

你我的相遇 延續著快樂 就讓愛去前行 飛向那邊界

不順流的命運黑暗力量對抗 當生命運轉轉成完美的旋律

五十勇氣 五十勇敢 滿分的夢想 等著觸碰的爆發

金色餘聲 敲響世界 多少機運來證明 酸甜苦辣的滋味

有時碰撞 有時任性 獨特的想像 堅持不變的 永恆

突破空想 嶄新人生 足跡的旅程 正在發生那夢想的 時刻

lyrics

When the blueprint of life, the fragments of dreams, the colorful rhythm, piece together the rainbow road

Golden brilliance, dazzling and shining, riding the white clouds in the wind to the distance

When the eyes shine, sweet smile, sing firm and beautiful fifty more

The encounter between you and me continues the happiness, let love go forward and fly to the boundary

The fate that is not flowing down the flow, the dark force confronts, when life turns into a perfect melody

Fifty courage, fifty courage, dream of a perfect score, waiting for the explosion of touch

The golden aftermath ringing the world, how many opportunities have proved the sweet and bitter taste

Sometimes collision, sometimes willfulness, unique imagination, perseverance, eternity

Breakthrough fantasy, a new life, a journey of footprints, the moment that dream is happening
