《And I Love You So》,一年前當聽到Don Mclean單薄的聲音響起的時候,我總會想起他抱著吉他歌唱星夜的模樣。那瘦弱的嗓音在達到星夜的高潮之處忍不住顫抖起來。梵高怎會知道在死後多年,會有人為他熱淚盈眶。
這首歌曲《And I Love You So》收錄在71年的《America Pie》專輯,據說在美國排行榜上停留了長達半年之久,那時正值嬉皮士頹廢盛行的時候,這樣的年代裏,出現如此溫暖的作品。
Don Mclean最擅長的是一把吉他加一副清爽幹淨的嗓子,在歌唱梵高的《Vincent》裏展現的淋漓盡致。然而這首歌曲其實並沒有展現出他的才華,裏麵用了大量的弦樂,似圖彌補吉他在旋律過門部分的單調,反而掩蓋了他聲音的魅力。
他唱:“我是如此的愛你,人們問我為什麽一直堅持到現在,我告訴他們我不知道,我隻知道我是如此愛你,如此。”
Don Mclean - And I Love You So
And I love you so The people ask me how How I've lived till now I tell them I don't know I guess they understand How lonely life has been But life began again The day you took my hand And yes I know how lonely life can be The shadows follow me And the night won't set me free But I don't let the evening get me down Now that you're around me And you love me too Your thoughts are just for me You set my spirit free I'm happy that you do The book of life is brief And once a page is read All but love is dead That is my believe And yes I know how loveless life can be The shadows follow me And the night won't set me free And I don't let the evening bring me down Now that you're around me And I love you so The people ask me how How I've lived till now I tell them...I don't know
