老歌亂談(1142)What's Happened to Blue Eyes

推薦 2 收藏 0 轉貼0 訂閱站台

此曲為美國鄉村音樂藝人Jessi Colter自寫自唱,收錄在其1975的專輯《I'm Jessi Colter》中,單曲獲得告示排鄉村榜的第5名,同時也擠進了流行榜的第57名,是Jessi Colter繼稍早的《I'm Not Lisa》後,個人第2首的熱門暢銷曲。

Jessi Colter的父親為賽車手,母親為牧師,11歲時就已是教堂的鋼琴手。1961高中畢業後即在當地的俱樂部演唱,此時遇見了吉他手Duane Eddy ( 有多首經典的吉他演奏曲 ),倆人隨即結婚,婚後Jessi一直隨著Eddy巡演,直至1968倆人離婚。

看來Jessi的「桃花」很旺,離婚沒多久又嫁給了「非法鄉村」先驅者的歌手Waylou Jennings,由於Waylou的協助,也開展了Jessi個人的歌唱事業。但因Waylou的藥、酒問題,於80年代前期,幾乎導致倆人的婚姻破裂,而之後Waylou決心戒斷,終於還是維持了下來,直到Waylou於2002過世 ( 64歲 )。

歌曲女主角要找一位叫「藍眼」的愛人,她很希望知道若有人見到這位藍眼先生 ,他之失聯並非是要終結她倆的關係。( 此曲另有一個版本,歌名為《I'm Looking for Blue Eyes》。)早年由於通訊不方便,的確會有心中仍惦記的故友、同學等,其實多年後找尋到,再相見時感覺早已不復當年,許多也只是想滿足自己的好奇心而已。

What's happened to blue eyes,Has anyone seen him
Don't anyone tell me,That he gave up on me
I'm looking for blue eyes,Has anyone known him
Is anyone knowing,If he's been looking for me

There was a time when blue eyes said there was no other
His one and only love, he swore I'd be
There was a time, when his blue eyes saw clearer than mine did
Tears and rain, years and pain, bring me back his way

What's happened to blue eyes,Has anyone seen him
Don't anyone tell me,That he gave up on me
I'm looking for blue eyes,Has anyone known him
Is anyone knowing,If he's been looking for me

What's happened to blue eyes?
