从《Love Me and Leave Me》谈开：（同人作家）四块二见证了莉亚妹妹与他渣男哥哥的二十余年来的爱恨纠葛
说起莉亚妹妹的歌曲创作，大家都会说他写的第一首歌是收录于《Standing on the shoulder of giants》的《Little James》，事实上，早在96年底至97年初之间，莉亚妹妹就与四块二一起搞了一首歌出来，也就是收录于本张专辑的《Love Me and Leave Me》。
我们要从盘古开天辟地开始说起吗？OK，let me try.
十几岁的莉亚妹妹是个沉迷足球和打扮，完全不听歌的美丽男孩，而一个花朵儿一样的美人打起架来异常凶狠.有一天，美丽的小莉走在街上突然被人揍了，他也不知道咋回事，但对方就拿着把榔头往他脑袋上砸，随着一声闷响，小莉倒地了，血从头上流了下来，然后小莉就晕了，被送医院了。当小莉醒来时，病房电视机上正在放《Like A Virgin》by麦当娜女士，从来不听歌的小莉突然就get到了音乐的召唤，他终于发现音乐之美了！这就是莉亚妹妹音乐道路的起点。
妈呀我讲累死了，这他妈要讲到啥时候，快进一下 >>>>>>>>>>>>>>
好了，时间来到1996年（喂！这跨度是不是有点大呢？），约4月开始莉亚妹妹便和他那阴晴不定的渣男哥哥土缸陷入了小规模冷战，原因完全不明，谁知道他们第几次闹分手因为啥闹分手，他们又不说！总之莉亚妹妹当时又混乱又难过。
由于这是海马专辑的评论区，所以我们来讲一下这时候的四块二在干吗（？）。1996年4月，四块二也离开了石玫瑰，离开石梅贵干嘛去了呢，马上搞自己的新乐队去了呀，找了三个unknowns，建立了海马乐队，主要目的就是自己玩吉他，瞎几把玩，想怎么玩就怎么玩，然后搞pop，气死猴王（bushi），但自己鬼混没前途啊，四块二又去找莉亚妹妹玩了，他这样一个射孔还能找人玩，可见莉亚有多可爱多美丽多charming了！
此时的时间线是1996年下半年，因为四块二参加了绿洲在96年8月Knebworth公园的演出，弹了champagne supernova和I am the walrus，这说明当时四块二跟撸粥混在一起，主要是跟莉亚妹妹混在一起厚。
莉亚在1998年的一个采访里，谈到了关于这首歌的来源：
In fact, Liam ("Our kid", they are both "Our Kid") had just had his first non-Oasis hit, having written the words to 'Love Me And Leave Me' by the Seahorses. A pretty good song too, if you like John Lennon. "John Squire come round me house one night for some aspirin and we ended up having a rant - a bit of this, a bit of that - and the paracetamol was a bit too strong for him, so we wrote that song. I've had this thing in me head for ages - I don't believe in Jesus, I don't believe in Jah - I don't believe in religion basically.（块二哥哥有天晚上来我家找我要点阿司匹林， 我给了块二哥哥扑热息痛，结果药效太强了，反正我们最后就喝得磕得晕乎乎的，然后就写了这首歌。这些词在我脑子里翻来覆去很多年了—— 我不相信耶稣，我不相信耶和华 —— 反正我基本上不信宗教。
I was brought up going to church and after circumstances in my life changed, I thought - fuck Jesus, fuck 'em all. It was because of me Mam and her divorce, how she couldn't take the Body of Christ anymore. They're telling her it's a big sin, she can't go to heaven and all that bollocks. She's put her whole faith in the church, but where's their faith in her?" （从小我就被带着去教堂做礼拜，但当我生活状况改变之后（我妈离婚了）-- 我就想，去他妈的基督耶稣随便什么狗屁神仙吧。就因为我妈离了婚，她就不能在教会里待着了，那些傻逼告诉她离婚是大罪过，她死后不能去天堂了balabala的，我妈把她所有的信仰都投入到教堂了，可是他们是怎么对她的？）
《Love Me and Leave Me》的创作时间是什么时候呢？
莉亚妹妹的好闺蜜RA在17年的一个BBC采访中聊到了录制《 Urban Hymns 》期间，莉亚妹妹来串门并参与录制的趣事，他这样说道：
“Liam Gallagher is on the last track ‘Come On’. I don’t think anyone knows this, but if you concentrate you can hear some demented guy screaming ‘come on’. I imagine everyone thinks that’s me, but I remember him doing it.（莉莉在最后一首歌come on里有出现哦！不知道了吧！你仔细听的话，就会听到有个疯癫颠的人在吼come on come on，别人应该都觉得是我在喊，其实我记得是莉莉在喊！）
“He arrived at the studio with the tape of a song he’d just done with [Stone Roses’ guitarist] John Squire. He proceeded, as he does, to play it 15 times in a row in the studio.”
从这里可以得知莉亚妹妹在the Verve录制《 Urban Hymns 》期间来到了录音室，而且带上了自己跟四块二刚做出来的新歌磁带，在录音室不停放了能有十五遍，可见得意非常！
而《 Urban Hymns 》的录制时间是1996年10月到1997年5月，也就意味着莉亚是在这个时间区间内造访的。那么这首歌的创作时间必然还要早一些。
【最新更新部分】四块二在97年Select五月刊的采访里讲起了这首歌的创作情况：
- only to route the conversation towards a Seahorses song entitled 'Love Me And Leave Me', co-written by one Liam Gallagher. Recent whispers have credited him with the song's lyrics..."
“He did the melody to the verse actually. It wasn't arranged. I just went round there after the Cup Final last year, round to Patsy's in St John's Wood. He wanted to show me this Epiphone Casino guitar that he'd got. I played a few chords, and I just had the first sentence of the song. I didn't have a melody, so I suggested that he try singing it over this chord progression that I had. It didn't get much further than that: we both got pretty pissed. But it came back to me later on. I wrote the song, and I had to concentrate pretty hard an what he'd sung, cos I remembered really liking it. It sounded special as soon as he did it.”
四块二虽然讲话很短但信息量很大！！！建议四块二出一本书取名《说话的艺术》。这段话里有一个时间点， I just went round there 【after the Cup Final last year】, round to Patsy's in St John's Wood. 根据查询，96年足总杯决赛是5月11号，也就是说四块二在1996年5月的一个晚上，可能是5月十几号，去找了莉亚玩。那么这首歌就是在这时候创作的，正好是莉亚跟有缸冷战的时候。
补充一个事情，96年9月莉亚妹妹跟缸突然偷偷私奔惹，跑到个谁也不知道的地方呆了一阵子，还打电话告诉妈妈一切都好，回来之后莉亚说一切都很好，绿洲不会解散了，which was 9月，而从《Love Me and Leave Me》的歌词来看，莉亚的心情是很低落的.
看看歌词吧。
Don't believe in Jesus Don't believe in Jah Don't believe in the wars we fight Just to prove how real we are
I believe in lovers, I believe in friends I believe in heaven here on earth 'Til the, the beginning ends
Love me and leave me Love me and leave me Love me and leave me Leave me to love
Don't you ever tell me It came from above Just love me and leave me Leave me to love
I believe in heroes, I believe in stars I believe that we'll meet one day Say hello in some astral bar
I believe in brothers I know you know who you are Here's to those who bore us And made us what we are
Love me and leave me Love me and leave me Love me and leave me Leave me to love
Don't you ever tell me It came from above Just love me and leave me Leave me to love
通篇幽怨、伤感、思慕之情溢于言表，你爱我，你离开我，而我沉溺名为爱的深渊，这算什么？
而且结尾部分是英国经典民歌《绿袖子》，绿袖子讲了一个少女被爱人抛弃的故事。
在这首歌里，四块二也表达了对猴猴的思念与困惑，毕竟他在02年的采访里还说当初是伊恩布朗变成了一个陌生人，不是他熟悉的爱人了，猴王离他而去（他妈的你磕coke磕昏头了！你个昏头仔！！！）
有缸你听到了吗？？？？？？？？？？？？
有缸表示我听到了，他于二十年之后好好听了这张专辑，受到本张专辑中《love is the law》的启发，写下了《if love is the law》:
Here am I I’m high up on a ledge I’m standing on the edge I’m hiding alone in some town Where love has been and gone I’m waiting for the storm to come back And take me down The things I left unsaid When lying on the bed Right next to the face you wore When you left me on my one Now I’ve been on my own And I must say
I didn’t come here to break up your mind And I don't believe that you were wasting my time There’s no more tears left to cry myself blind If love is the law Then this is a crime
有缸严重控诉是莉亚弃他而去，他心如刀割，他心如死灰，他爱不动了。hey what are you talking about man？？？？？
最骚的还是这句 If love is the law Then this is a crime
莉亚显然听上头了↓
所以我们莉亚妹妹96年就在写歌啦，特别是歌词哟，不过02年的采访里安迪铛说莉亚写歌老费劲了，天天跑录音室抱着把吉他唱啦啦啦，和弦就会那几个，一首songbird能搞半年，可见96年的莉亚更菜……醉醺醺的四块二带着伤心又醉醺醺的莉亚妹妹玩吉他，玩出了这样一首歌，四块二真乃同人圣手也！
来一张慈祥的块二奶奶和莉亚妹妹的亲密合照结束今天的哔哔。
