A Song of What a Wonderfull World

歌词
I see trees of green, red roses too
I see them bloom for me and you
And I think to myself what a wonderful world
I see skies of blue and clouds of white
The bright blessed day, the dark sacred night
And I think to myself what a wonderful world
The colors of the rainbow so pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces of people going by
I see friends shaking hands saying how do you do
They're really saying I love you
I hear babies crying, I watch them grow
They'll learn much more than I'll never know
And I think to myself what a wonderful world
Yes I think to myself what a wonderful world

此歌是1987年的美国电影《早安越南》主題曲，曲作者是Alex North，其代表作有《欲望街车》、《埃及艳后》、《早安越南》、《人鬼情未了》主题曲。歌者是老牌JAZZ演唱家Louis Armstrong,他同时也是一位杰出的小号演奏家。后来该曲又成为动画片电影《马达加斯加》的片尾曲。今天我放的是原曲中加入了Kenny G演奏的萨克斯风而重新编配的版本。

之后美国另一位很年轻就去世的歌者Eva Cassidy 又重新演唱该曲，它是一个现场版本，风格和 Louis Armstrong完全不同，唱的非常有味道，我也喜欢。
