「偶爾我會⋯偶爾卻會⋯⋯」你會否偶然記起某一個人？會唔偶然想看看他們的近況？惡夢扭蛋最新的歌《偶然（也有想你的時候）》正是關於一對散了的情侶偶然想起對方、訴說一些抱怨和遺憾。
惡夢扭蛋在前幾年推出三首歌曲，其獨特的風格更是吸引了不少粉絲。成員Higgo Raj曾在《全民造星II 》進了十強，卻選擇走獨立歌手路線，更是和 Dayze組成新人組合。他們曾入圍「叱吒新人組合」，而今次聯同EAGLE 一起創造出這首輕快的歌曲，相信各位也會感到興趣。
歌曲由簡單的鋼琴獨奏開始，一種輕快而有些盼望的氣氛也油然而生。一把女聲(Dayze)也接著響出，溫柔而堅定的聲音與背景的鋼琴、簡單的鼓聲完美的配搭。在一段純音樂後，一把男聲(Eagle陳天翺)也加入了，稍微低沉而富有感情的聲音也是與背景音樂好好的配合。聽着聽着，相信你的腳也會隨着拍子搖動、身體也會跟着旋律搖擺。在女主聲獨唱後的一段純音樂，兩位主聲也哼着旋律，氣氛仍是那麼的輕鬆、舒服。在歌曲的最後，Higgo Raj獨自的饒舌(rap)也是感覺很自然、配合著拍子，讓歌曲也是在鋼琴獨奏、輕鬆輕快的氣氛下完結。
論到歌詞，也是那麼的簡單、那麼的令人回味。歌詞中顯出了男女主角的觀點，兩位偶爾想起那時各種的片段、既有遺憾也有不滿。再認真聽一聽，歌詞真的很普通、簡單，卻也能感受到詞中兩位主角的情感。其實，無論是抱怨或無奈，這也是偶爾才想起，能想起對方名字，已經算是偶爾中的偶爾了。
總結而言，《偶爾》在輕鬆的氣氛、catchy的節拍下，呈現了一對曾經的情侶偶爾想起對方的想法和感受。若你喜歡聽流行音樂的、或者你也想起曾經和他/她的日子，那麼你可以聽一聽這首歌。這首歌曲已出現在各大串流平台，例如YouTube、Spotify、Apple Music等等，請大家多多支持！

“Occasionally I…Occasionally…” Do you occasionally remember someone by chance? Do you occasionally unconsciously check up on how they are doing? Nightmare Gacha’s latest song “Occasionally (When I Think Of You)” is about a separated couple thinking of each other by chance, reminiscing along with some grumbles and regrets.
Nightmare Gacha has released three songs in the past few years, and their unique style has attracted many fans. Member Higgo Raj once entered the top ten in “King Maker II”, but chose to continue as an independent singer, and even formed a duo with Dayze. Together, they have created songs about different things in daily life, while experimenting with different elements and styles. They also have been shortlisted for the “Newcomer Group” in the Ultimate Song Chart Awards Presentation. This time, they created this song together with EAGLE, and this catchy, simple song is worth listening to.
The song begins with a simple piano solo, creating a light and somewhat hopeful atmosphere. A female voice (Dayze) followed, and the gentle but firm voice matched perfectly with the soft background piano and rhythmic drumming. After a short solo of the piano and guitar, a male voice (Eagle Chan Tianao) also joined in, and the slightly deep and emotional voice also worked well with the background music. Listening to it, your feet will tap along the beat while your body will also sway to the melody. In the instrumental section after the female lead solo, the two lead vocals hum the melody as the piano plays in the background, and the atmosphere is so relaxed and comfortable. Around the end of the song, another singer’s (Higgo Raj’s) unique rapping feels energetic yet natural, with the song finally ending with a piano solo and a mellow and upbeat atmosphere.
As for the lyrics, they are so simple and so evocative. To quote from the official description of the song, this song shows the two points of view of the same story——the boy and the girl. Both of them occasionally think of various memories of when they were together, with both regret and dissatisfaction. Listen to it carefully, you might find the lyrics to be ordinary and simple, but you can also feel the emotions of the two protagonists in the words. There might be still feelings of complaint or frustration, but it isn’t that important anymore. It was only by chance that both of them remember each other. Being able to recall the other person’s name? That would be considered a miraculous chance.
To sum it all up, “Occasionally” presents the thoughts and feelings of a former couple who occasionally think of each other, along with a relaxed atmosphere and catchy beat. If you like to listen to Cantopop, or you are also thinking of the days with him/her, then you should go and listen to this song. This song is already out on all music streaming platforms, such as YouTube, Spotify, Apple Music, etc. Give the song a try whenever you have the time!
