懷念 Tony Bennett - "I Left My Heart in San Francisco"

Ed Sullivan Show - November 22, 1964

The loveliness of Paris seems somehow sadly gay 戀戀巴黎黯然魂傷
The glory that was Rome is of another day 羅馬風華又待明日
I've been terribly alone and forgotten in Manhattan 我迷失在曼哈頓
I'm going home to my city by the Bay 我踏上回家的路, 回那灣邊的城,
I left my heart in San Francisco 我在 San Francisco 留下了我的心
High on a hill, it calls to me 高高的陡坡向我招呼
To be where little cable cars climb halfway to the stars 搭那纜車在摘星的路上
The morning fog may chill the air, I don't care 晨霧是涼颼颼的朝氣, 又如何?
My love waits there in San Francisco 我所愛的就在 San Francisco 等著我,
Above the blue and windy sea 在那蔚藍有風的海上,
When I come home to you, San Francisco 當我回家到你身邊, San Francisco…
Your golden sun will shine for me 你金色的太陽將為我綻放
When I come home to you, San Francisco 當我回家到你身邊, San Francisco…
Your golden sun will shine for me 你金色的太陽將為我綻放

I was driving to senior home on Thursday, heard from radio of the pass of Tony Bennett, one of his famous songs “I left my heart in San Francisco” came to my mind and this morning click on 梨群所居 read the special news, I smile, smile inside. The golden sun in San Francisco that I experienced on my first trip to SFO in my early 20s, I cannot forget the scene I saw.
This morning on the way home from Saturday morning grocery shopping, Toronto’s bright and warm summer sun shines on my eyes, I breathed in deeply and enjoyed a few minutes of sunbathing. What a beautiful morning.

Thank you Paul

第三十九週 - 碎片拼湊的曲子

September 29, 2023

但是, 有些音樂學者進一步詢問 Giazotto 所謂”碎片”的實證, Giazotto 一直推托沒有提供任何”碎片”存在的證據, 一直到他在 1998 年去逝, 他都沒有交代這件事情, 好事者在他死後進行調查, 在 Dresden 圖書館都查不到這個資料, 因此質疑這首 Adagio in G Minor 是古老的巴洛克音樂, 因為有可能是 Giazotto 自己寫的.
