第一次聽到 The Cranberries 的 Linger 是在我大學的時候，

在那之前，我對小紅莓的印象僅止於 Zombie 這首歌，

當時我聽著我一位長得很"屌"的 Buddy 分享給我的 The Cranberries Live Concert 時，

Live 版本的 Zombie 更是讚到不得了！

但也在當時，心中對 Linger 這首歌留下了相當深刻的感覺！

之後隨著硬碟不斷汰舊換新，那張 Live Concert 也就不知道跑哪去了，

而天天聽的 Zombie & Linger 也從我的 MusicMatch 中消失啦！

直到之前在電影 Click 中又聽到這首歌，

Linger 這首歌是片中 Newman & Donna 兩人的定情曲，

姑且不論 Click 這部片給我的啟示，光是電影中兩人定情的橋段，

"WILL YOU STILL LOVE ME IN THE MORNING？"

"FOREVER ＆ EVER, BABE！"

短短的兩句話，夾雜了初吻的滋味，

當時背景音樂更是 Match 到不行的 Linger！

我是不知道是不是有人跟我一樣，但我的確被這樣簡單卻幸福的橋段所吸引住！

而隨著日子一天一天過，最近 HBO 天天撥 Click，

我當然又把 Linger 翻出來聽！真的是越聽越有感覺！

所以忍不住想分享給大家聽！

題外話，我挺想看看星光二班會不會有人出來唱這首歌，

我個人是希望 Gina 來唱，哈哈哈！

不過若要講唱得好，應該是美珍吧....

若要講唱的有感覺，我則認為是林宜融....

Whatever, try it！I believe you'll love it！

LINGER

If, you, if you could return
Don't let it burn, don't let it fade
I'm sure I'm not being rude
But it's just your attitude
It's tearing me apart
It's ruining everyday
And
I swore, I swore I would be true
And honey so did you
So why were you holding her hand
Is that the way we stand
Were you lying all the time
Was it just a game to you
But I'm in so deep
You know I'm such a fool for you
You got me wrapped around your finger
Do you have to let it linger
(Do you have to *2)
Let it linger

Oh! I thought the world of you
I thought nothing could go wrong
(But I was wrong *2)
If you, if you could get by
Trying not to lie
Things wouldn't feel so confused
And I wouldn't feel so used
But you always really knew
I just wanna be with you

But I'm in so deep
You know I'm such a fool for you
You got me wrapped around your finger
Do you have to let it linger
(Do you have to *2)
Let it linger
