每次讀你在我貼的英語歌曲的留言,總是讓我產生共鳴,頗有高山流水遇知音的那份感覺。謝謝你,楚江,和你交流真是一種愉悅。
讀到你在英語歌曲Yesterday的留言,提及了Carpenters的Yesterday Once More,我剛剛找到了這首英語歌曲的視頻,就送給你和大家。
祝新的一周快樂。

附:楚江在英語歌曲Yesterday的留言,摘錄如下:
披頭士的Yesterday和後來Carpenters的Yesterday Once More,都是懷舊歌曲的經典,極盡“感時花濺淚,恨別鳥驚心”的離愁別緒,憂傷纏綿。
兩首歌我都愛聽,謝謝分享!

Song: Yesterday Once More
Artist: Karen Carpenter
When I was young
I'd listened to the radio
Waitin' for my favorite songs
Waiting they played I'd sing along
It made me smile
Those were such happy times
And not so long ago
How I wondered where they'd gone
But they're back again
Just like a long lost friend
All the songs I loved so well
(*) Every Sha-la-la-la
Every Wo-wo-wo
Still shines
Every shing-a-ling-a-ling
That they're starting to sing's
So fine
When they get to the part
Where he's breakin' her heart
It can really make me cry
Just like before
It's yesterday once more
Lookin' back on how it was
In years gone by
And the good times that I had
Makes today seem rather sad
So much has changed
It was songs of love that
I would sing to then
And I'd memorize each word
Those old melodies
Still sound so good to me
As they melt the years away
Repeat (*)
All my best memories
Come back clearly to me
Some can even make me cry
Just like before
It's yesterday once more
Repeat (*)

Karen Carpenter
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Karen Anne Carpenter (March 2, 1950 – February 4, 1983) was an American singer and drummer. She and her brother, Richard, formed the 1970s duo The Carpenters.
She suffered from anorexia nervosa, a little known disease at the time, and died at the age of 32 from heart failure, later attributed to complications related to her illness.
Karen Carpenter's drumming skills were considerable, but it is for her vocal performances that she is best remembered.
