The Circle Game

最近在看东方之珠(汪明荃演的).

这个连续剧最最最特别的地方,
就是它会播很多经典歌曲(老歌也).
有些老歌是百听不厌的,
就像这首"The Circle Game",
还有"One Way Ticket"之类的.

↓↓The Circle Game歌词
Yesterday a child came out to wonder
Caught a dragonfly inside a jar
Fearful when the sky was full of thunder
And tearful at the falling of a star
And the seasons they go round and round
And the painted ponies go up and dawn
Were captive on the carousel of time
We cant return we con only look behind
From where we came
And go round and round and round
In the circle game.

Then the child moved ten times round the seasons
Skated over ten clear frozen streams
Words like, when youre older, must appease him
And promises of someday make his dreams
And the seasons they go round and round
And the painted ponies go up and dawn
Were captive on the carousel of time
We cant return we con only look behind
From where we came
And go round and round and round
In the circle game.

Sixteen springs and sixteen summers gone now
Cartwheels turn to car wheels thru the town
And they tell him,
Take your time, it wont be long now
Till you drag your feet to slow the circles down
And the seasons they go round and round
And the painted ponies go up and dawn
Were captive on the carousel of time
We cant return we can only look behind
From where we came
And go round and round and round
In the circle game

So the years spin by and now the boy is twenty
Though his dreams have lost some grandeur
Coming true
Therell be new dreams, maybe better dreams and plenty
Before the last revolving year is through.
And the seasons they go round and round
And the painted ponies go up and down
Were captive on the carousel of time
We cant return, we can only look behind
From where we came
And go round and round and round
In the circle game

→sang by Joni Mitchell


东方之珠 陈敏之 The Circle Game(由陈诗慧幕后代唱)

我最喜欢的一句是副歌里的:
We cant return, we can only look behind
From where we came
And go round and round and round
In the circle game

旋律很美.
听了很舒服.

另外,
东方之珠里,
很多首老歌都由王祖蓝和陈诗慧等人重唱.
大家知道王祖蓝是谁吗?
如果你有看"同事三分亲",
你一定记得有一个矮仔,
声音很有磁性的,
没有带钱坐巴士结果整辆巴士的人一听到他的声音,
发现他是广告里那把充满磁性的声音的主人后,
争着帮他付钱的那个.
知道了吗?
东方之珠里面很多歌都是他在幕后代唱的,
厉害吧?
