yesterday once more 的歌词和曲调经久不息地打动着一代又一代年轻人的心。其实很久都没有听了,但今天黑鱼同学给了个链接,听着听着便陷入了回忆。。。
第一次听到这首歌是在班级元旦年欢会上,也是高中毕业前的最后一次元旦联欢,记得那一届学生都属龙。文艺委员同学是位十分水灵的姑娘,她带领全班用英文合唱这首歌,同学们一边唱一边围拢到我的身边。突然灯灭了,黑暗中一闪一闪亮出许多小蜡烛,我看见了一些女孩子眼中的泪花,看到了同学们一个个手拉着手,甚至看出他们在倾吐心声。。。
再一次在公开场合听到这首歌是在女儿的婚礼上。来宾们笑闹着要求新娘唱歌,女儿推脱不过就唱起了这首歌:
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
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
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
