Fields Of Gold - Eva Cassidy

古水:

You'll remember me when the west wind moves
Among the fields of barley
You can tell the sun in his jealous sky
When we walked in fields of gold
So she took her love
For to gaze awhile
Among the fields of barley
In his arms she fell as her hair came down
Among the fields of gold
Will you stay with me' will you be my love
Among the fields of barley
You can tell the sun in his jealous sky
When we walked in fields of gold
I never made promises lightly
There have been some that I've broken
But I swear in the days still left
We'll walk in fields of gold
We'll walk in fields of gold

I never made promises lightly
And there have been some that I've broken
But I swear in the days still left
We will walk in fields of gold
We'll walk in fields of gold
Ooo-ooo-oo
Many years have passed since those summer days
Among the fields of barley
See the children run as the sun goes down
As you lie in fields of gold
You'll remember me when the west wind moves
Among the fields of barley
You can tell the sun in his jealous sky
When we walked in fields of gold
When we walked in fields of gold
When we walked in fields of gold

        出生于马里兰州的伊娃·卡西迪(Eva Cassidy 1963.2.2-1996.11.2),自幼受家庭艺术氛围的熏陶,早早便在家族的乐团中展露出演唱天赋,然而,内向的性格却让她选择绘画作为志向,只是在偶遇了制作人Chris Biondo后,才使她正式踏上音乐之路。
        Eva的音乐风格很难界定,兼容民谣、乡村、爵士、流行和摇滚,甚至常常弥漫着福音与蓝调气息,这让很多看好她的唱片公司一直犹豫为她发片,直到与Chuck Brown共同灌录的首张专辑(The Other Side/1992 )发行之后四年,Eva的首张独唱专辑"Live At Blues Alley"(后街蓝调)才得以发行,且在Washington DC.地区赢得很大反响。或许是天妒英才,同年末,这位刚刚崭露头角的实力歌手却因皮肤癌过早地离开了人世,此时离她的34岁生日仅差三个月。
        上帝将Eva过早地收为天使,却将她的声音永远留在了人间,各种赞誉和奖项更是蜂拥而至,收录了其生前多首经典歌曲的个人精选集"Songbird"也很快问世,值得一提的是,Eva在对一些经典老歌的翻唱演绎中,常常能以自己细腻的情感结合独特的乐句处理,使听者体会到其不落窠臼的鲜活生命力,听一听这首由其演绎的Sting原创名曲"Fields of Gold",或许就能让你明白什么叫"用生命来歌唱"了。
        秋日阳光下金色的麦田里,一位双眸湛蓝的金发女孩正迎着微风,远处是只有在天堂才能见到的绚丽彩虹,耳畔这脉脉沁入内心深处的静静吟唱却已让我泪流满面......
