與月相伴的動人歌曲 / Heart-touching songs accompanying the moon

中秋節，除了烤肉、吃月餅、剝柚子及賞月之外，還有甚麼事情可以做呢？還有很多事情可以做，對於愛唱歌的人而言，去KTV唱歌，不但可以跟朋友聚會，聯絡感情之外，更可以一曲高歌、一展歌喉，放鬆心情和釋放壓力，假如歌聲動人，唱得很好的話，更可以感到愉悅及成就感。

而以月亮為主題，所創作的歌曲，在中外並不少喔，首先，月亮逐漸變化的形狀和階段可以象徵時間的流逝，它可以引發人們對孤獨、失落、美滿、團圓等情感，並進而思考生命的涵義，是種很棒的歌曲涵義象徵，此外，月光在夜晚營造出一種神秘和浪漫的氛圍，神秘和未知強烈地引起了人們的好奇心，神秘感常用來創作充滿幻想和神秘元素的歌詞，而月亮也常被用來表達愛情、思念和渴望。

以下幾首和月亮相關的好聽歌曲，可能大家都聽過，但在中秋佳節聆聽，更有那種氛圍，但是在平日聽到，也是相當迷人動聽。

《城裡的月光》許美靜

城裡的月光是新加坡歌手許美靜的成名曲之一，她是上華唱片公司台柱之一，有著美音天后美譽，在城市裡，喧囂過後，在城市的一角，她獨自仰望這城市裡的月光，許美靜的美音婉轉而細膩，仿佛在訴說這個平凡而又動人的城市故事。

《月光》王心凌

人們對王心凌的印象，應該是那個清純甜美，穿著學生短裙，踏著輕快舞步，唱的愛你的那位甜心教主吧，這首王心凌唱的月光也同樣地瀰漫著那種甜蜜蜜的感覺，唱出那種小女孩對於愛情的天真浪漫，也勇敢面對愛與不愛的勇氣。

《黃色月亮》蘇慧倫

蘇慧倫是以玉女歌手的身分出道的，一出道，立刻吸引了眾多的男粉絲，在唱片公司的包裝下，她也給人那種小女生甜美的感覺，但這首黃色月亮，似乎表達了蘇慧倫的真我，它的歌詞副歌「我渴望極度自由、我渴望海闊天空，我渴望日日夜夜輕輕鬆鬆矇矇朧朧，不要再迷戀著我、愛上我並不好受，我想你不會了解我的情緒電波。」好像蘇慧倫也在唱出，她其實是位有想法、可行動的新女性的內在。

《黃色月亮》伍佰 & China Blue

這首歌曲是台灣搖滾天王伍佰幫蘇慧倫寫的，在伍佰的演唱會上也有唱出這首歌曲的搖滾版本，伍佰的個人舞台魅力、嘶啞的嗓音，把歌曲詮釋得更加放浪不羈，更加自由奔放。

《月亮惹的禍》張宇

聽說這首歌誕生的背景是歌手張宇與妻子，突然決定決定在加拿大閃婚。但是事後兩人面對媒體對於閃婚理由的追問，卻講不出原因，正好張宇想起結婚那天的月亮特別圓，於是請他的妻子，也就是他專用的作詞人十一郎，親自寫了這首詞，把所有兩人閃婚的原因都歸結給了月亮，就當是月亮惹的禍吧。這句話，很好用，是個很好的做錯事情的藉口。

《私奔到月球》五月天 feat. 陳綺貞

五月天是台灣的天團，從出道後，表演事業一直都順利，唱出多支暢銷的經典歌曲，歌詞中的「一二三牽著手，四五六擡起頭，七八九我們私奔到月球。」，跳脫地球的禁錮，甚至私奔可以逃到月球。這樣爲愛的奮不顧身，這首歌曲，還是一首男女對唱浪漫情歌，讓我們唱出一場與衆不同的太空浪漫之旅吧。

以上幾首歌，好像都不是近期的歌曲，主要是我國語歌本來就聽得不多，以上的歌曲，可能傳唱已久，而我聽多了，已經聽到很耳熟了，所以才列出，事實上，與月亮有關的好ㄊㄧㄥ歌曲太多了，而與月亮相關的歌曲總是能夠輕易觸動我們的心靈，讓我們感受到音樂的魅力和魔力。

On Mid-Autumn Festival, apart from barbecuing, eating mooncakes, peeling pomelos, and moon-gazing, what else can you do? Well, there are plenty of activities to choose from. For those who love to sing, heading to a KTV (karaoke) can be a fantastic option. It's not only a great way to hang out with friends and bond but also a chance to belt out a tune, unwind, and relieve stress. If you happen to have a captivating voice and sing well, it can bring immense joy and a sense of accomplishment.

As for songs themed around the moon, there are plenty of them in both Eastern and Western music traditions. First, the ever-changing phases of the moon can symbolize the passage of time. This can evoke feelings of solitude, loss, happiness, reunions, and prompt reflections on the meaning of life. It's a wonderful theme for songs with deep and symbolic meanings. Additionally, moonlight creates a mysterious and romantic ambiance at night. The mystery and the unknown often pique people's curiosity, making it a great backdrop for songs filled with fantasy and mystique. The moon is also frequently used to convey emotions of love, longing, and desire.

Here are a few beautiful songs related to the moon that you might have heard before. They carry a special atmosphere, especially when listened to during the Mid-Autumn Festival, but they are enchanting at any time.

"City Moonlight" by Mavis Hee

"City Moonlight" is one of the signature songs of Singaporean singer Mavis Hee. She is one of the pillars of the Hua Yin record label and is renowned as the Queen of Mandarin Pop. In the midst of the hustle and bustle of the city, in a quiet corner, she gazes up at the moonlight in the city all by herself. Mavis Hee's melodious and delicate voice seems to be narrating the ordinary yet touching stories of the city.

"Moonlight" by Cyndi Wang

When people think of Cyndi Wang, they probably picture the innocent and sweet girl in a schoolgirl skirt, dancing with light steps, singing as the sweetheart of the pop music world. Similarly, Cyndi Wang's rendition of "Moonlight" also exudes that sweet and romantic feeling. She sings about the innocent and romantic notions of a young girl in love and the courage to face both love and heartbreak.

"Yellow Moon" by Tarcy Su

Tarcy Su is often associated with the image of an innocent girl-next-door, and her debut as a pop idol immediately attracted a large number of male fans. Under the packaging of her record company, she exuded that sweet and girlish vibe. However, in the song "Yellow Moon," it seems like Selina is expressing her true self. The chorus of the song goes, "I yearn for extreme freedom, I yearn for boundless horizons, I yearn for carefree days and nights, I don't want you to be infatuated with me, it's not easy to fall in love with me, I don't think you'll understand my emotional wavelength." It's as if Selina is singing that she is actually an independent and thoughtful modern woman who can take action.

"Yellow Moon" by Wu Bai & China Blue

This song was written by the Rock King of Taiwan, Wu Bai, for Selina of S.H.E. Wu Bai also performed a rock version of this song at his concert. Wu Bai's charismatic stage presence and raspy voice added an even more wild and free-spirited interpretation to the song, making it even more liberating and carefree.

"Moon's Mischievous Deed" by Zhang Yu

I heard that the background of this song is that the singer Zhang Yu and his wife suddenly decided to elope in Canada. However, when facing media inquiries about the reason for their sudden marriage, they couldn't come up with a clear explanation. Then, Zhang Yu remembered that the moon on their wedding day was particularly round. So, he asked his wife, who happens to be his dedicated lyricist Eleven Lang, to write the lyrics for this song. They attributed all the reasons for their elopement to the moon, as if the moon had caused the mischief. This phrase, "Moon's Mischievous Deed," is quite handy and serves as a good excuse for making mistakes.

"Runaway to the Moon" by Mayday feat. Cheer Chen

Mayday is a Taiwanese superband that has enjoyed a successful career since their debut. They've produced numerous bestselling classic songs. The lyrics go, "One, two, three, holding hands; four, five, six, lift your head up high; seven, eight, nine, let's run away to the moon." It's about breaking free from the confines of Earth and even escaping to the moon. This song encapsulates the fearless pursuit of love, and it's a romantic duet between a man and a woman. Let's sing our way into a unique space romance.

The songs mentioned above may not be recent, but that's because I don't listen to Mandarin songs very often. These songs have been around for a while, and I'm quite familiar with them. In reality, there are so many beautiful moon-themed songs, and they always have the power to touch our hearts and make us feel the magic of music.
