60年代的摇滚

晚上当地的公共电视台在集资,放的是爱德-沙利文秀里的摇滚乐队演出。 黑白的画面,衣着正统而拘谨的英国乐队,古怪的发型和奇怪的表情,还有那些熟悉的旋律。

Talking about British Invasion... 这首“朝阳屋”虽是Animals唱红的,Bob Dylan和Nina Simone也都有自己的版本。

House Of The Rising Sun
There is a house in New Orleans
They call the Rising Sun
And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy
And God I know I'm one

My mother was a tailor
She sewed my new bluejeans
My father was a gamblin' man
Down in New Orleans

Now the only thing a gambler needs
Is a suitcase and trunk
And the only time he's satisfied
Is when he's on a drunk

------ organ solo ------

Oh mother tell your children
Not to do what I have done
Spend your lives in sin and misery
In the House of the Rising Sun

Well, I got one foot on the platform
The other foot on the train
I'm goin' back to New Orleans
To wear that ball and chain

Well, there is a house in New Orleans
They call the Rising Sun
And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy
And God I know I'm one


听到Happy Together时, 我儿子和女儿都跟着摇摆起来。
