老歌亂談(610)We'll Sing in the Sunshine



1942出生於紐西蘭的Gale Garnett,11歲時舉家遷至加拿大。1960,首次的公開上台唱歌。同時期,為了拓展她的表演事業,也開始出現在一些電視的系列節目中。1963,首度在紐約的夜總會駐唱,也在該年簽入了RCA唱片公司旗下。

此首《We'll Sing in the Sunshine》為Gale Garnett自寫自唱,1964推出後,直衝告示牌熱門榜第4名 ( 易聽榜則是No. 1 ),而且在1965為她奪得了一座最佳民謠歌曲的葛萊美獎。之後,Gale Garnett繼續推出專輯、歌曲,可惜僅有另一首《Lovin' Place》進入美國排行榜。80年代,Gale Garnett退出歌壇,而仍參與電影及電視節目的表演,以及從事投稿報刊等的文字寫作。

看歌詞,讓人覺得滿疑惑的,既然不愛對方,為何還要和對方在一起一年?有人認為這只是不予承諾的一種男女關係,到分手時就不會有負擔。至於一年 ( one year ),應是為了要和too dear押韻,代表的是「一段時間」。歌詞中也透過父親的告誡,對感情還是要謹慎的付出,才可以快樂的繼續走人生的道路。但也有人持不同的看法,在感情的交往中若處處提防、過於保守,最後剩下的,可能只是孤獨的自己。



We'll sing in the sunshine
We'll laugh every da-a-y
We'll sing in the sunshine
Then I'll be on my way

I will never love you
The cost of love's too dear
But though I'll never love you
I'll stay with you one year

And we can sing in the sunshine
We'll laugh every da-a-y
We'll sing in the sunshine
Then I'll be on my way

I'll sing to you each mornin'
I'll kiss you every night
But darlin', don't cling to me
I'll soon be out of sight

But we can sing in the sunshine
We'll laugh every da-a-y
We'll sing in the sunshine
Then I'll be on my way

My daddy he once told me
"Hey, don't you love you any man"
"Just take what they may give you"
"And give but what you can"

"And you can sing in the sunshine"
"You'll laugh every da-a-y"
"You'll sing in the sunshine"
"Then be on your way"

And when our year has ended
And I have gone away
You'll often speak about me
And this is what you'll say

"We sang in the sunshine
"You know, we laughed every da-a-y"
"We sang in the sunshine"
"Then she went on her wa-a-ay"

這樣的老歌搭上老舊的照片
聽起來讓人內心好平靜暢適
所以說編制影音的能力也很重要

夏日炎炎
大哥還有去打球嗎

版主回應
美麗的鄉居景緻
配上有些慵懶的曲調
的確讓人有恬適平靜之感

其實打高爾夫的吸引人之處
也有是因為球場開闊的自然景觀
不過前陣子氣候異常
我們home course果嶺的草死光光
附近其他球場也有的是球道一整片枯黃
這種情況會讓打球樂趣大減 ( 甚至還會邊打邊罵 )
所以最近只能多站站練習場了!^^
