The Rose – 手嶌葵
我用软弱的低语呼唤我的爱人,但在我的意识中又聚起阴郁的幻想.我用我软弱的手在黑暗中把你寻觅。突然,在我滚烫的额头,我感觉到你的眼泪、你的亲吻和你的气息。——普希金《康复》
还记得《地海传说》里面空灵纯净、涤荡心灵的歌声吗,她就是手嶌葵。手嶌葵演绎了翻唱过无数次的名曲,包括这首《The Rose》。
《The Rose》是一首传唱了几十载的经典老歌。爱就是一朵花,只要心中播种希望,春天来临时定有馨香玫瑰绽放。想送给你,让我们心怀玫瑰,聆听天籁般的歌声,默记富含哲理的词句“Lies the seed that with the sun’s love,In the spring becomes the rose”。
《The Rose 》这首感人至深的歌曲多年来始终深受喜爱,除在1979年的电影《歌声泪痕 The Rose》作为主题曲,由Bette Midler首唱发行,并夺得了白金单曲外。影片《大人物拿破仑 Napoleon Dynamite》(2004)也使用了此曲,此外宫崎骏的作品《岁月的童话おもひでぽろぽろ》(1989)的片尾曲“爱は花、君はその种子”亦是由这首歌曲改编的,都はるみ(北村春美)演唱。平井坚在专辑“Ken’s Bar”中也翻唱过这首歌。 其作者Amanda McBroom也录制了一个版本,感觉很不相同。后来相继有多个当红歌手争相翻唱,包括红遍全球的美国天才少女LeAnn Rimes,以及超人气组合westlife,英国走红女歌手Natalie Imbruglia,港台老将林忆莲与齐豫、黄莺莺,小天后蔡依林,新生力量阿桑,更有日本唱功见长的矢野真纪和很少听到的男生版本平井坚,还有日本的女歌手兼声优手嶌葵(Aoi Teshima) 也翻唱过这个版本,所有这些版本各具韵味,我最开始听的是西域男孩(即westlife)的版本,感觉还不错。最近日本的一部由真实故事改编的特殊的爱情故事《生命的最后一个花嫁》也用了这首歌,用在去婚礼的路上,患癌症的女主人公望向车外。歌声里,勉励完成的婚礼中的痛与幸福,飘进人心。
