”藤井風”ファンだと名乗って尋ねられる、「どの曲が一番好き?」という問いには、これまで「”特にない”、全部好きなんで」と答えてきた。
これでわかる人には説明はいらないし、文字通り受け取ってくれる人には、それ以上言っても情報過多のような気がするからだ。
全くの事実なので、これからもそれで通してもいいんだけど、”藤井風”をよく知らない人にお勧めするときの1曲を考えてみた。
その1,”もうええわ”のケース。
やらなきゃなんないことがいっぱいあるのに、どうしてもやる気になんなくて、グダグダうだうだしてる時に聴くと、このままぱっくれてもいいんじゃないかと思わせてくれる救いの曲。
やらきゃいけないわけじゃなくて、自分がそう思ってるだけなのに気づく。
人に言われたからじゃなくて、常識だからじゃなくて、自分に大切なのは何?
人の価値観に合わせて生きるなんて、もうええんやない?
自分で自分を幸せにさしたろ、笑ったろ。
笑ってみると不思議とどうにかなる。
「やらねば」を「やろう」に変える魔法の曲。
When I tell someone that I'm a big fan of Fujii Kaze and am asked, "Which song do you like the most?", I have answered "Tokuninai (nothing in particular), because I like all of his songs."
Those who understand this meaning don't need any explanatione, and for those who take it literally, it feels like there's too much information to take any more.
It's completely true, so I can continue to pass it off as such, but I thought of a song that I would recommend to someone who doesn't know much about Fuji Kaze.
Part 1: Mo-Eh-Wa case.
If you listen to this when you don't feel like doing anything anyway although you're overwhelmed with a lot of things to do, it will be a savior song which makes you think that it's okay to just let all things leave there and you can go away anywhere.
You realize that it's not that you have to do it, it's just that you think so.
Not because someone told you to do, or because it's common sense, but what is important for you?
Isn't it no longer necessary to live according to other people's values?
You should make yourself happy, and laugh.
When you smile, something is strangely going to happen better.
It's a magical song that turns "I have to do it" into "I will do it."
