Je est un autre.

宝特瓶请摘掉帽子，这是Olympia，管你环保不环保。

导座费不给强要，这是Olympia，关你高兴不高兴。

还好还好，位子不错，左邻声控，舞台咫尺；

还好还好，氛围极佳，灯光很炫，音乐悦耳。

Mélanie出走Low Fi，给自己的团暖场，不过尔尔。Télérama异常客气地给了两个ff, 不怀好意地以为给了NV个薄面。二十分钟场依微凉，再散了二十分钟场，NV才终于使出来。

疯长的四肢和声响戏剧了台上台下。白金女（白衣金发缩写）干脆跳到舞池中央，拉着听众乱舞，不由自主地想到了开场前洗手间“遇”到的Mary J.。Mélanie带着现场录下巴黎的一声呼喊，是Folk还是F***，原谅我对法式英语的残弱听力，不过有首歌是没错的，叫作《Too Drunk To F***》。还有一首大笑的歌名：《La crise économique c'est fantastique》。乐手们也不甘寂寞：视觉上Bass抢掉了绝对的红，和琴支摇曳拉扯；Drums写了一首歌，让鼓和白金女Duo一把。殊不知默默无闻的Keyboard和Guitar才是NV的灵魂人物Olivier Libaux和Marc Collin。五年来的合作旨在用Bossa Nova糖衣七零八零的朋克新浪潮经典。

Bossa Nova=Nouvelle Vague=New Wave。

最后的最后，Gerald来了温柔的两刀：《Relax》和《Israël》，只得诚服专辑里呢喃的这般爆发力。第一次在巴黎看到的两次Encore。

“Paris est putain exceptionnel.”白金女如是道别。

一盏接一盏的咖啡，恹恹地在电脑前灵魂出窍，回闪那夜的New Morning。

近日的天气多少闷热，东边云多，西边雨飘，完全没有秋天该有的凉爽。错过了Bataclan的新专辑巡演，却意外地赶上这场Accoustic Live。依旧是长长的队伍，挨个弯进单扇的铁门，拣了个右侧的位子坐下，开始环顾这熟悉的空间。两年前的Patricia Barber的演唱会，我坐在对面的位子上。漆黑的屋顶上稀拉地长着旧照片黄的白帜灯。风扇拖沓地打着转，代替了台上缺席的鼓手。照例有钢琴，与键盘面对面，Tori的两手四琴还历历在目。因为是第一次看Johanson的演出，不知道他不是自弹自唱，立在一隅的话筒架也没引起自己的注意。

九点一过，他从容地走了出来，留长的头发贴着后背，侧面也不易察觉。其他照旧：衬衫，仔裤，白鞋。白帜灯谢幕，钢琴键落，《Poison》里的《Alone Again》。话筒前他静静地和着琴声，曲终只有一声带着口音的“Thank You”。当Trip-Hop没有了鼓点，现场俨然一个钢琴吧。Johanson偶尔转身，加入微弱的迷离音效，尽管这与原声演出的概念有些许出入，只不过电脑音效于他是一件无法替代的乐器。

演出形式决定了曲目的选择，都是熟悉的旋律，有些也不自觉地呢喃起歌词。当音乐回归本来的面目时，情感的表达像湿了的海绵，可以愈蓄愈满，只是听者的眼眶不能自己，现场起起落落的左手和右手。演出的间隙Johanson也道出了本次演出的原委。十年前香榭丽舍的FNAC里，同样的器乐搭配，那时的他不甚有名。这一次，是回归，也是想念。演唱会的后段他也兴起地唱了一首筹备中的新歌。

演出终场，一鞠躬，一声谢谢，听者静静离场，在白帜灯再次亮起的时候。

还记得第一次听到他的歌，音乐录音带竟然是在上海取的景。

Wonder Wonders,我在渐弱的音乐里搁笔。出了车站，遇见来法最倾盆的大雨。

Finally, you were sitting in  front of me, accompanied by your quadruple keyboard, although the distance was still 2 times as far as I had imagined.

The music began. You came along in a new dress which reminded me of your new song Lady in Blue. As an American, you did not ignore the fashion side of the city. Like a prayer, you lay down on your knees, hands folded. Such sacred moment debuted the tour named sinful attraction.

Fingers lingering on the piano, you were non-handicapped Venus, following the exact rhythm given by your colleagues. Sometimes, you got up; Sometimes, you raised your hand. The only character that did not change was your long straight red hairs, as well as your music.

The lighting was well designed and as impressive as the resonance. I could not give up thinking the cover of her album Under the Pink when the white illuminated the whole palace during the song Icicle.

Undoubtedly you were much more attractive when your were alone with your favorite piano. Silent All These Years aroused all the nostalgia. That was the first song of you that I heard.

Surely everyone was expecting a 4-hour concert. However, everything has an end (except the sausage). When Precious Things came up, unexpectedly the audience flooded down to the frontline of the stage. The carnivalesque moment started. After Big Wheels, she left the stage without a word.

That was the end of this unforgettable wonderful night, on October 3rd, 2009.
