"Spring Day" - Ron Ng


春日 - 吳卓羲

作曲: Park Sung ll
填詞: 鄭櫻倫
編曲: 葉肇中/鄧智偉
監製: 鄧智偉

*忘掉你說過愛我 沒記憶不清不楚
但我很清楚 剩低畢生 無助

其實向你訴說過 但你聽得清晰麼
淚已給風乾 卻添心裡 負荷
期望太多 請想起 思憶中擁吻過*

眺望過去的仍在眼內 在遠方揮手 你在
就算那天分開 依戀不再 我不捨 舊愛

我願這晚鐘停在美夢 夢永不休止結局
讓暖意 似往昔 沒明天 都不哭
你不懂 如像線路錯 沒法接通

Repeat *

那日我倆的甜蜜腳步 在那春天花 滿路
但剎那 似佈景 換來冬天冰島
看不到 還是我獨個 望眼太高

Repeat *

偶爾碰上雨裡一天 如能從前般親暱慣見
情沒 切線 要說再見這次願佔先

台上戲裡你與我 若缺一聲音不可
未說得清楚 愈感不勝 無助

明白我已似客過 但我心珍惜當初
若固執偏 多我知感覺 惹禍

還望再拖 不甘輕風般消失 
不許可 沉在你心中思憶的一 個我

Kenneth Ma Sincerely Learns About Stardom

maming01maming02

【成報】馬國明誠心取星經

「我從細細個時候講好嗎?」馬國明帶微笑地說:「我有個花名是『傻佬明』,好百厭又貪玩,試過用個頭撞電視,爸爸媽媽都好嬲我,試過被罰藤條炆豬肉,打完之後我便偷偷地把藤條掟落垃圾桶,以為就可以不再捱打……」高大俊朗的馬國明邊說邊笑童年時,長大了的他與家人關係非常之好,而在不知不覺因媽咪所喜愛的偶像,而產生首次接觸幕前的演出。

馬媽媽的偶像就是大家所熟悉的張國榮先生,馬家終日都有他的歌聲,而馬媽媽更嚷說:「我要改一個英文名叫做Monica呀!」國明耳濡目染也喜歡哥哥,他最喜歡的歌就是《為你鍾情》,而他最難忘的就是:「當時張國榮拍汽水廣告,而在一戲中各人拿起汽水那一幕,我就是其中的一個呀!」99年入行,第十四期訓練班的同學,罕有地說出他入行前啼聲初試的故事,而他在不同的場合見到梁朝偉、劉青雲都有心跳的感覺,他不是追星一族,但是他對具有攝人魅力的偶像,加上對方友善有禮的態度,卻深深打動了他。

藝人親民 成功風範

國明說:「他們都很有修養,很有禮貌,誰跟他們打招呼都會點頭微笑,當侍應遞上飲品食物,他們都會說唔該晒!親民有禮真是沒有丁點兒的架子。」看呀,一個成功的藝人,當然在其工作崗位做到最好,若加上待人以誠,好話當然有人為他說。

當國明正式在電視圈工作的時候,他那善良的性格及家教,很自然地表現一份真誠和親善出來,他說:「我個人而言,一心只想做到一個演員,當身邊的朋友說你唔錯喎有Fans,有人叫你簽名影相,你好紅喎!我內心都沒有半點他們所說的感覺,我撫心地問自己,現在只是耕種的日子,Fans給我的支持和鼓勵是很重要,但真的,我沒有半點飄然的感覺。」他一口氣地說,每句話都是充滿真誠和坦白。

不揀角色.交足功課

我對他說:「聽過別人說馬國明在《同撈同煲》裏演來有些浮誇,但也有讚你很夠放,你怎樣看?」國明用心地聽,然後就說:「我是知道那些壓力的存在,有人讚當然會有人彈,當我戰戰兢兢的時候,我就會告訴自己,聽導演的話,和同劇演員一起配合,努力地把角色應有的特質盡量做好,每場戲都交足功課呀!」

記得他曾演過如殺人犯、絲襪狂徒、路人甲乙丙,而在《Loving You》裏演的舞男卻是留下很深的印象,坦白一點地問:「你是否願意去演那些角色?」他快人快語地答:「作為一個藝人來說,只要公司派下來任何的角色我都非常樂意地去做,因為那是應該的,那是一份工作,況且我更視為一種鍛煉的機會呀!」

蘊聚實力.長久作戰

「我希望日後可以演更多不同類型的角色,例如同性戀、忘年戀、智障人士,只要角色派到我手,我便會用心地去演。」國明對演出是充滿憧憬和期待,當我直言地問:「那麼你心裏可否有當小生的意念?」他實實在在地答:「就算有此機會,我也希望自己努力地當上一個被別人及台前幕後都認為有實力的小生呀!」說到這裏,筆者不期然地想起一些,虛張聲勢,只有外殼的一些所謂花旦和小生,看深一點,那都只是花瓶而已,也許,在國明心裏,演藝生涯是長久之戰,在他口中所提及的演員,如梁家輝、周潤發、張國榮、梁朝偉、劉青雲……等等都是實力非常的演員,而他們身上的共同點就是平易近人,絕不擺架子!

盡心盡力.必有得

最近看了他在《人間蒸發》的演出,主線雖然並不落在他身上,但是他卻有另一番的表現,他就說:「每當我踏入錄影廠的時候,我就告訴自己不容有失,我是一個藝員,我個人而言,每一次的通告都視為一個機會,若一次做得不好,就算有第二次第三次機會,那麼會有第四次嗎?」此刻,我頓然間想起劉德華曾與筆者所說的一段話:「今天你拿了A,聽到無盡的掌聲,但是否等於你下一部作品會拿A+,起落一定有,只要努力,成績就不會一下變得太差!」

後記﹕足球精神 搏殺娛圈

馬國明熱愛踢足球,不論前鋒、中鋒、守龍門他都表現俱佳!「踢足球就是講求合作性,怎樣傳怎樣射都要球員互相配合,其實做任何事都是應該有團隊合作性,只要每一個人都盡忠職守,失波的機會便會大減。」他沒有硬把演藝工作混入而說,正在力爭上游的馬國明,在力捧之下,他常常告訴自己,實力才是最珍貴。

Kate Tsui and Kenneth Ma Do Not Avoid Suspicions, Learning to Make Sushi

CREDIT IF REPOSTED


In the series "Hard to Be a Woman", the rumoured pair of Kate and Kenneth will be dating. Kenneth will be portraying a sushi master, who will be teaching Kate to make sushi. Sparks will also be flying between the arguing pair. Therefore, on the previous day, the two went to a Japanese diner to study under a skilled sushi chef, where they talked and laughed merrily without avoidance.

Since Kenneth and Kate will be having a relationship in the series, they were asked whether they would be worried about rumours arising again. With ease, Kate said, "Filming hasn't even started, and rumours already have. But I really have to thank them for helping promote the series. It's only acting--nothing to be afraid about. I have previously worked with Kenneth on some programs. Anyone in this industry already understands this type of news". Asking if it would be awkward if the plot involved intimate scenes, Kenneth namely said, "Don't know if there'll be any intimate scenes; even if there are, it will only be acting. I have acted in many series before, so it won't be awkward, but Kate has only begun to act, so I don't know if she is afraid or not".

Apart from learning how to make sushi under a master, it was also the two's first time making a Japanese dish, so there was some clumsiness. Under the direction of the master, Kate learned very quickly; someone even pointed out that her skill resembled that of a master more than Kenneth's. Kate smiled and said, "We're about the same, but later in the series, the plot will really be about the 'student surpassing the teacher'. The happiest thing is that I am able to eat sushi, combining work with entertainment".

In other news, there was a magazine that earlier photographed Kate swimming in a bikini. She felt extremely helpless, as she expressed that she was swimming in a personal space but was still photographed. She feels unhappy; however, all she can do is find another place to swim. As for not being exposed, Kate firmly says, "When getting a suntan, I certainly wouldn't dare loosening the straps--I wouldn't even dare wearing a bikini at the beach".
