百忙之中,贴一首我很喜欢的歌,一首喜欢了很久的歌,Colours。

原作是Donovan,但我第一次听到这首歌的版本是他和Joan Baez的Duet版,后来才听到了Donovan的原版。在Duet版本中,Donovan的声音像极了迪伦,以至于我第一次听到时默认为就是贝茨和迪伦的合唱版。

两个版本我都很喜欢,不过更喜欢有贝茨掺和进来的版本,太他妈好听了。

这里我将两个版本都呈上,配着北京今天的阳光,这样的音乐让人忘记了最近所有的不快。

Colours – by Donovan

Colours – a live duet by Donovan & Joan Baez

Yellow is the colour of my true love’s hair,

In the morning, when we rise,

In the morning, when we rise.

That’s the time, that’s the time,

I love the best.

Blue’s the colour of the sky-y,

In the morning, when we rise,

In the morning, when we rise.

That’s the time, that’s the time,

I love the best.

Green’s the colour of the sparklin’ corn,

In the morning, when we rise,

In the morning, when we rise.

That’s the time, that’s the time,

I love the best.

Mellow is the feeling that I get,

When I see her, m-hmm,

When I see her, oh yeah.

That’s the time, that’s the time,

I love the best.

Freedom is a word I rarely use,

Without thinking, m-hmm,

Without thinking, oh yeah.

Of the time, of the time,

When I’ve been loved.
