下下 The Corrs - Spancill Hill
Spancill Hill
Last night as I lay dreaming of pleasant days gone by
My mind being bent on rambling to Ireland I did fly
I stepped on board a vision and followed with the wind
Till next I came to anchor at the cross near Spancill Hill
T'was on the 23rd June the day before the fair
When lreland's sons and daughters and friends assembled there
The young ,the old, the brave, the bold came their duty to fill
At the parish church at Cluney just a mile from Spancill Hill
I went to see my neighbors to hear what they might say
The old ones were all dead and gone the young one's turning grey
I met the tailor Quigley, he's bold as ever still
Sure he used to mend my britches when I lived at Spancill Hill
I paid a flying visit to my first and only love
She's fair as any lily and gentle as a dove
She threw her arms around me saying "Johnny I love you still"
She was Meg the farmers daughter and the pride of Spancill Hill
She was Meg the farmers daughter and the pride of Spancill Hill
力邀英國BBC Radio 2演奏會管弦樂團擔任伴奏,散發屬於愛爾蘭的清新、自然情感
愛爾蘭之光--可兒家族(The Corrs)在征戰流行樂壇15年之後,決定帶著2005年度大碟Home回家,藉由詮釋傳統與現代的愛爾蘭音樂來榮耀他們的故鄉。Home是樂團對喜歡愛爾蘭傳統音樂的樂迷表達感謝之意的作品。 團員Andrea說:我們之所以將專輯名稱取名為Home,因為,它就是最真實的,不是嗎?所有的東西都是源自於這個地方。
最新大碟Home由合作過3張專輯的製作好友Mitchell Froom擔綱製作,專輯在弦樂編曲家Fiachra Trench以及英國BBC Radio 2 Concert Orchestra管弦樂團的合作下,只用了幾個禮拜的時間就大功告成,團員在專輯中所呈現的感覺,聽來格外清新、自然,忠實的傳達了標題名稱中的那份來自於家庭的氣氛。專輯裡的主要選曲依據是來自於可兒家族的老母親Jean 1999年過世所珍藏的古早時代的手抄歌本,這些都是團員們長年累月聽著父、母親演唱的歌曲,他們對這些歌曲有著一種特殊的感受,因為,選唱這些歌不但榮耀了愛爾蘭的傳統民謠,更是象徵著整個家族對愛爾蘭音樂與文化的傳承所做的努力。
