Speak Now(有話要講)是婚禮舉行前,牧師會問在場的觀禮群眾有沒有人反對這對新人結為夫婦,有反對的話便要「Speak now or forever hold your peace」。「Speak Now」也是民歌手Taylor Swift最新出版的大碟。她這首主題歌曲內有一句是這樣的:「She floats down the aisle」(新娘輕飄飄的步向禮台)。Taylor Swift在11月底奪得2010年American Music Awards的最佳女民歌手獎。她將於2011年到香港演唱和推廣她的「Speak Now」新大碟。2011年我喜愛的樂隊「The Eagles」會來香港在會議展覽中心演唱一場,門票由588元到2,088元一張。四位成員會演唱金曲例如《Hotel California》和《Take It Easy》等。他們的「1971﹣75年金曲」大碟成為全球銷量最高的唱片,共售出2,900萬張。
Better English, wider horizons: speak out = To talk freely and fearlessly, as about fighting for freedom of speech in Hong Kong; speak up = To speak loud enough to be audible, To speak without fear or hesitation;so to speak= In a manner of speaking: Ah Fai can't see the forest for the trees, so to speak.
