http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://www.barriere.cc/chinMusic/chinM...; Subway Concerto
Recently, I watched an Asian man play a stringed instrument in the Union Square Subway Station waiting for the Number 6 Train, and was amazed at his musicianship, skill, and love for his special instrument. People seemed to encircle him, but the audience ever changed, as they had to board their trains. I did board my train as well, though I wish I wasn't late for my assignation. I watched from behind him and saw his utter disappearance in the obsession of each softly struck note, waiting for the next in instants of glory, every note stilled the senses and engaged every neuron of my brain to find in my mind a wonder at his consistent persistent playing with stamina and his hopes to please an audience of strangers. The instrument he played is called a "Yangqin".

Subway Concerto
The image of the musician is still vivid
Struck on my waxed tablet ... memory
So unreliable at times - not here, not now.
After almost a week no diminution of his
Art's mark on my mind's recalling, pulling
From deep in the well of sounds to ripple
And a hologram of this splendid Musician
Steals away my senses again
Playing an instrument of Asian descent,
Not a dulcimer as some might say but
A yangqin of so much latent feeling
Expressions of finding infinity
Stringed with complexity struck with
Reflexes and controlled power where
Sounds abide to crystallize into music
Filling the subway station space
As never before as people gathered
Around the man with looks of curious
Awe -- eyes darting from the gray haired
Asian man and the strange stringed
Instrument he played with the skill
Of a master of mystical vibration
In the midst of those noisy trains' distraction
Coming in and out on track for destinations
Known to all who listened to the man
But not the man who was destined
To play even recognizable tunes
To comfort those late travelers
Strung at Time's taut pleasure.

The Musician of all Subway Concertos hesitates ...
He looks down as though he dropped a thought
Or misplaced a favorite note borrowed from
Those spheres that the ancients used to revere
Then a suddenness of resolution and he strikes
A new melodious foray much to Time's taut dismay.

by Amos Lee

A beautiful song ... I could listen to it forever ...
"Colors" was featured in the movie "Just Like Heaven". Here are the lyrics:

Colors

Yesterday I got lost in the circus
Felling like such a mess
Now I'm down I'm just hanging on the corner
I can't help but reminisce
When you're gone all the colors fade
When you're gone no New Year's Day parade
You're gone
Colors seem to fade

Your mama called she said that you're down stairs
crying
Feeling like such a mess
Yeah I hear you you're in the background bawling
What happened to your sweet summertime dress

I know we all, we all got our faults
We get locked in our vaults and we stay
But when you're gone all the colors fade
When you're gone no New Year's Day parade
You're gone
Colors seem to fade
Colors seem to fade
Yeah
