【2023壇慶】@3：現代京劇“窮人的孩子早當家 @4: Yesterday Once More

不是為了趕壇慶末班車， 不會把反差如此大的兩樣東西混搭到一塊的哈哈！

第一段是跟風“淺葫蘆絲”歌友的現代京劇！這首“窮人的孩子早當家”神曲當年風靡的狀況我們這一代人親曆過， 不是這段戲或者那八大戲出了什麽問題， 說真的是傳統京劇藝術與現代題材結合的典範， 又有經曆過民國教育的創作者的加持，每一段拿出來都可算是上乘之作， 但是全國就隻這八個戲就是問題了！

幾年前對京劇感興趣， 被幾位戲友拉下水， 靠的就是這段“投名狀”， 不過， 厚顏地說， 現在感覺比那時進步太多了！ 這是我第一次不從李玉和與樣板戲， 而是從京劇老生（謝謝諾福克確認！）的角度來感受這一段。 （想起秦瓊諸葛亮誰的。） 樣板戲之所以精彩就是因為它根植於傳統京劇的土壤。 但那個時代絕不值得回顧！

提籃小賣拾煤渣，

擔水劈柴也靠她。

裏裏外外一把手，窮人的孩子早當家。

栽什麽樹苗結什麽果，

撒什麽種子開什麽花。 

第二首，上一次諾福克友友提到卡朋特的歌， 特此奉上剛剛錄好的 Yesterday Once More,  原來一直以為這首經典張口就來的， 現在才發現這其實是卡朋特最難的歌之一，  氣息要求高， 而且歌詞有幾句我一直沒吃透， 今天可著嗓子唱了這首，希望沒有埋汰了卡朋特的這首神曲就好！

When I was young
I'd listen to the radio
Waitin' for my favorite songs
When 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-o-wo-o
Still shines
Every shing-a-ling-a-ling
That they're startin' 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.

Every Sha-la-la-la
Every Wo-o-wo-o
Still shines
Every shing-a-ling-a-ling
That they're startin' to sing's
So fine.

All my best memories
Come back clearly to me
Some can even make me cry.
Just like before
It's yesterday once more.
