《今晚食乜好》Tonight Eat What Good (TEWG)是地球旅人一首玩味比较重的的单曲。歌曲曲调为节奏感强劲,会跟著摆动身体的Funky Style。再配合Justin Leung的Horn Section编曲,更是丰富了歌曲的层次感。
把“今晚食乜好”香港人最为熟悉的口头禅写入歌词,加入大量香港地区名字和广东话口话写成歌词。使单曲多了一阵“港味”。
这首单曲想表达的内容,其实并不是你所听到的那么欢快。而是一个奇怪故事。
歌词方面,主要分为广东话和英语两部份。广东话:就好像是在与别人的对话,问:“今晚食乜好?今晚去边度?”相反英语却说明了歌者其实只有自己一个,像是一直在自言自语。
《今晚食乜好》这首单曲也会收纳入年末的一张小型专辑内。探讨了我们(香港人)生活单一而又无聊的现象,“今晚食乜好”已经成为了我们最关注的事情。在我们追求享乐,满足各种欲望的时候,却不知不觉忽略了很多本来是重要的议题。
《今晚食乜好》Tonight Eat What Good (TEWG)'s composition is based on funk-rock, a strong bass-and-drum groove with snapping and crunchy guitar riffs layered atop relentless rhythm guitar. The song also features the emotive saxophone solo by Justin Leung, who also provided the arrangements for the brass section.
“今晚食乜好”, a familiar phrase often used by Hongkongers, sets the tone of the lyrics which is mostly in colliquial cantonese, which also references many Hong Kong streets and areas, giving the song uniquely Hong-Kong characteristics.
Despite the upbeat and cheerful melody, the song tells a more uncanny story. The lyrics consists of a Cantonese and English part. The Cantonese part seems to be a conversation with a friend, asking “what should we eat tonight, where are we going next?”. The English part of the lyrics then reveals that the narrator is alone and has been talking to themselves all along.
TEWG will be part of the EP which will be released by the end of the year. It addresses the monotonous and repetitive lives of Hongkongers, when “tonight eat what good” has become the main question we are worried about. When we are so preoccupied with superficial things and in pursuit of pleasure, often we become self-absorbed and aren’t concerned about the world going on around us, even if it would impact us later on.
