[竹南夜未眠] Come Away with Me ~Norah Jones~

Come Away with Me 與我遠走高飛

如果你以前問我最喜歡的爵士女歌手是誰，我或許會說是Diana Krall。不過你現在問我的話，我可能會告訴你，是Norah Jones。Norah的音樂風並不是非常非常的"爵士"，反而是融合了一點點鄉村，一點點民謠以及一點點pop的風格。但是聽起來卻更加的舒暢，尤其是在一個人的夜裡。


Come Away with Me ~Norah Jones~

Come away with me in the night 今晚 與我遠走高飛
Come away with me 跟著我走
And I will write you a song 我會寫首歌送給你

Come away with me on a bus 跟著我乘著巴士遠走
Come away where they can't tempt us
With their lies 一直到他們無法再用謊言來誘惑我們的地方

And I want to walk with you 我只想跟你一起走
On a cloudy day 在那個多雲的日子裡
In fields where the yellow grass grows knee-high 當野地裡的草已長到膝高
So won't you try to come 而你為何不試著跟著我來

Come away with me and we'll kiss 跟著我遠走
On a mountaintop 我們將在山頂上親吻
Come away with me 跟著我遠走高飛
And I'll never stop lovin' you 而我永遠不會停止愛你

I want to wake up with the rain
Falling on a tin roof 我願在雨點打落在屋簷的時刻醒來
While I'm safe there in your arms 只要我是安穩的躺在你的懷裡
So all I ask is for you 所以 我對你唯一的請求就是
To come away with me in the night 今晚 跟著我遠走
Come away with me 與我 遠走高飛

推薦Live in New Orleans裡面的版本(available in DVD)，比CD裡面的更好聽更有味道。

這首歌是Norah Jones自己寫的喔。

[勁舞年代] Sunny-Boney.M

還記的以前小時後常常到外公的工地去玩。外公的辦公室裡面有台很大的"Sunsui"山水牌四聲道音響，有著四個至少1米高的大喇吧。當時的音響可沒有啥CD，用的是大張的LP黑膠唱片和匣式錄音帶。 當時國小三，四年級的我超喜歡玩那台音響的，每次到工地第一件事就是去打開它。看著唱針滑過黑色的唱片，居然就有美妙的音樂出現，實在是很新奇。當時外公有很多張唱片，日本演歌啦，還有什麼銀霞劉福助的我都不愛聽。印象最深的就是一張Disco舞曲的唱片我最常放來聽。小學時期根本聽不懂再唱啥，只是覺得音樂很輕快很好聽。尤其是第一首歌開頭就是有人在唱"啥咧~~啥咧~~"。後來長大，外公的音響也不知道哪去了，我也忘了有這首歌的存在。直到某天亂轉著電視，剛好看到周星馳長江七號的片尾(p.s.我還未完整看過此片)，天阿這背景音樂不就正是"啥咧"嗎？！趕緊上網google了一下，原來正是Boney M.的"Sunny"



Boney M. - Sunny

Sunny, yesterday my life was filled with rain.
Sunny, you smiled at me and really eased the pain.
The dark days are gone, and the bright days are here,
My sunny one shines so sincere.
Sunny one so true, I love you.

Sunny, thank you for the sunshine bouquet.
Sunny, thank you for the love you brought my way.
You gave to me your all and all.
Now I feel ten feet tall.
Sunny one so true, I love you.

Sunny, thank you for the truth you let me see.
Sunny, thank you for the facts from a to z.
My life was torn like a windblown sand,
And the rock was formed when you held my hand.
Sunny one so true, I love you.

Sunny

Sunny, thank you for the smile upon your face.
Sunny, thank you for the gleam that shows it's grace.
You're my spark of nature's fire,
You're my sweet complete desire.
Sunny one so true, I love you.

Sunny, yesterday my life was filled with rain.
Sunny, you smiled at me and really eased the pain.
The dark days are gone, and the bright days are here,
My sunny one shines so sincere.
Sunny one so true, I love you.

I love you.
I love you.
I love you.

過了快30年，再次聽到這首歌的感覺真的很奇妙。

Boney M. 並非Sunny的原唱，根據Wiki的資料第一位錄製此曲的是日本藝人，發表後也被許多藝人翻唱過，不過編曲大多是走soft rock風。1976年德國團體Boney M.把它改編成disco版本之後讓這首歌又成為了當年的勁歌金曲。

這首歌總共在"長江七號"出現過3次，據說星爺本人也是老歌愛好者。
