歌曲《yesterday once more》中文名为《昨日重现》,曾入围奥斯卡百年金曲。理查德·卡朋和约翰·贝迪斯于1973年创作了这首怀旧风格的歌曲,原唱是理查德·卡朋特的妹妹卡伦·卡朋特。卡朋特兄妹于1965年开始组织乐队,取名卡朋特乐队(Carpenters)。哥哥理查德·卡朋是个才华横溢的钢琴家,担任乐队的钢琴伴奏和歌曲创作。他创作了大量经典歌曲, Super Star、We've only just begun、Sing、Yesterday Once More和Top Of The World等。妹妹卡伦·卡朋特在音乐领域也有极高的天分,嗓音优美、深情,她可以一边打鼓一边唱歌。卡伦·卡朋特那纯净略带忧郁的嗓音,亲切自然的演唱风格,使《yesterday once more》这首歌独具魅力。 这首歌,旋律优美,曲调悠扬。每次听到它,仿佛看见清澈透明,缓缓流淌的小溪,在阳光下,泛着粼粼微波,让人流连忘返。 学生时代,第一次听到这首歌,只是觉得很好听。再回首,花开花落几春秋。曾几何时,“你说霞染天光,陌上花开与谁享;后来烟笼柳暗,湖心水动影无双。” 多年以后再,次听到这首歌,终于领悟了这首经典歌曲的纯熟,知性。每一个饱尝悲欢离合之苦的;每一个承载了太多故事的人,再次听到《yesterday once more》,都不禁热泪盈眶。那么多美好的过往,让人怀念。随着时光的流逝,记忆中的形象会模糊。但那时的感动,始终留在内心深处,在每一个寂静的夜晚,抚慰离人的忧伤。耳边再次响起《yesterday once more》的旋律,把岁月融化。 歌词: When I was young 当我年轻时 I'd listen to the radio 我喜欢听收音机 Waiting for my favorite songs 等待着我最喜欢的歌曲 When they played I'd sing along 当歌曲播放时我和着它轻轻吟唱 It made me smile 我脸上洋溢着幸福的微笑 Those were such happy times 那时的时光多么幸福 and not so long ago 且它并不遥远 How I wondered 我记不清 Where they'd gone 它们何时消逝 But they're back again 但是它们再次回访 just like a long lost friend 像一个久无音讯的老朋友 All the songs I love so well 所有我喜爱万分的歌曲 Every shalala every wo'wo 每一声Sha-la-la-la 每一声Wo-o-wo-o still shines 仍然光芒四射 Every shing-a-ling-a-ling 每一声 shing-a-ling-a-ling that they're starting to sing 当他们开始唱时 so fine 都如此悦耳 When they get to the part 当他们唱到 where he's breaking her heart 他让她伤心那段时 It can really make me cry 真的令我哭了 just like before 像从前那样 It's yesterday once more 这是昨日的重现 Shoobie do lang lang 无比惆怅 Shoobie do lang lang 无比惆怅 Looking back on 回首往事 how it was in years gone by 回望过去的几年 And the good times that I had 我曾有过的欢乐时光 makes today seem rather sad 今天似乎更加悲伤 So much has changed 一切都变了 It was songs of love 那是旧情歌 That I would sing to them 我唱给他们的 And I'd memorise each word 至今我仍能记得每一个文字 Those old melodies 那些旧旋律 still sound so good to me 仍然悦耳动听 As they melt the years away 可以把岁月融化 Every shalala every wo'wo 每一声shalala每一声wo‘wo still shines 仍然光芒四射 Every shing-a-ling-a-ling 每一声他们开始唱的shing-a-ling that they're starting to sing 每一声他们开始唱的 so fine 都如此悦耳 All my best memories 我美好的回忆 come back clearly to me 都清晰地浮现在眼前 Some can even make me cry 有些令我哭了 just like before 一如往昔 It's yesterday once more 这是昨日重现 Shoobie do lang lang 无比惆怅 Every shalala every wo'wo 每一声shalala每一声wo‘wo still shines 仍然光芒四射 随着优美的旋律,闭上双眼,让时空的车轮倒转。模糊的记忆慢慢清晰,昨日重现,让所有感动再来一遍,与你相遇,相知,相惜,愿有岁月可回首,且以情深共白头。
