<b>鮑比文頓:《Roses are Red》</b>
這是一首改變鮑比文頓(Bobby Vinton)一生的歌曲。
早先,鮑比文頓志在組成自己的一個爵士樂隊,
他被Epic 唱片網羅了以後,灌製了兩張爵士樂唱片,
成績都不理想,Epic 唱片有意解約。
Bobby Vinton從被Epic 唱片拒絕的歌堆裡,找到這首曲子,
他說服了唱片公司老闆,讓他試一試.唱片發行時,
鮑比文頓自知這是他在Epic 唱片的最後一個機會,
自掏腰包地買了許多唱片,加上一朵紅玫瑰,
送給各大城市的主要DJ,這一招果然奏效,
本來就好聽的歌,加上鮑比文頓甜美的歌喉,
DJ們一炒動,果然就大紅特紅起來,
在排行榜上高居第一名達四個禮拜之久。
以後,鮑比文頓的唱歌生涯就一帆風順。
可説是上個世紀美國的兩大歌手。
這首歌被舊金山採用成市歌,
(另一首市歌是1936年電影《舊金山》的主題曲)。
<b> Roses Are Red (玫瑰是紅的)</b>
(Roses are red, my love ... doo doo da doooo ...)
A long, long time ago, on graduation day.
You handed me your book ... I signed this way:
Roses are red, my love.
Violets are blue.
Sugar is sweet, my love.
But not as sweet as you.
We dated through high school.
And when the big day came,
I wrote into your book,
next to my name:
Roses are red, my love.
Violets are blue.
Sugar is sweet, my love.
But not as sweet as you.
Then I went far away and you found someone new.
I read your letter dear, and I wrote back to you:
Roses are red, my love.
Violets are blue.
Sugar is sweet, my love.
But luck may god bless you.
Is that your little girl?
She looks a lot like you.
Someday some boy will write
in her book, too.
Roses are red, my love.
Violets are blue.
Sugar is sweet, my love.
But not as sweet as you.
