【清晨之曲】《No, woman, No cry》、《Hey Jude》（2018.04）

每週四早上載女兒上學的半小時是可以討論歌曲、音樂的時間，上個月我們聽了艾蜜莉電影原聲帶以及《Time in a bottle》。這個月兩回的「清晨之曲」恰好都是七〇年代歌曲，延續三月份Jim Croce《Time in a bottle》的氣氛。

【清晨之曲】《No, woman, No cry》、2018.04.19（zoyo 13.8ys）
對於Joan Baze（瓊・拜雅）的歌聲，左右姐妹應該不陌生，因為我們時常播放「Diamond And Rust In The Bullring」鬥牛場演場會這張專輯，只是zoyo或許沒有仔細聽，裡頭那首《No, woman, No cry》的歌詞。
Joan Baze（瓊・拜雅）唱的《No, woman, No cry》民謠版，原是牙買加雷鬼歌手Bob Marley，發行於1974年的音樂，後來衍生為女權主義的代表歌曲之一。我知道，這會讓喜歡艾瑪華森在聯合國兩性平權演說的左右姐妹有一些共鳴。

《No, woman, No cry》

No, woman, no cry;
No, woman, no cry;
No, woman, no cry.
No, woman, no cry.

Said – said
said: I remember when we used to sit
In the government yard in Trenchtown,
obaserving the hypocrites
As they would mingle with the good people we meet.
Good friends we have, oh, good friends we’ve lost
Along the way.
In this great future, you can’t forget your past;
So dry your tears, I say.
No, woman, no cry;
No, woman, no cry.
I said：No, woman, no cry.
No, woman, no cry.

Said – said –
Listen I remember when we used to sit
In the government yard in Trenchtown.
And Georgie would make the fire lights,
As it was logwood burnin’ through the nights.
And we would cook cornmeal porridge,
which I’ll share with you;

and My feet is my only carriage,
So I’ve got to push on through.

Everything’s gonna be all right!
Everything’s gonna be all right!
Everything’s gonna be all right!
Everything’s gonna be all right!

No, woman, no cry;
No, woman, no cry;
No, woman, no cry;
No, woman, no cry.

【清晨之曲】《Hey Jude》2018.04.25，13.9ys（zoyo 13.9ys）
終於披頭四！
我總是跟女孩說，別說這些歌太老，
有些歌你非認識不可！
她們把我們的年代與她們的世代分好開，
直到年輕的吉他老師，
跟她們介紹好久好久以前的歌手，
以及經典不敗的歌曲時，
她們才明白，原來爸爸媽媽平時播放的，
就是這些跨世代的音樂。

八年級生的吉他老師告訴九年級生的zoyo說：「一直聽披頭四的歌就對了。」這一說，果真喚起zoyo的認同，我還故意說：「如果以後你彈吉他，彈的是披頭四的音樂多帥！」然後又說：「《解憂雜貨店》裡的魚店音樂人留了一頭泡泡頭，就是在六、七〇年代受披頭四影響的啊，那時候全世界都瘋狂，年輕人都愛那種髮型。」於是，她們趕緊把家裡那片披頭四專輯燒錄到電腦裡，再挑出《Hey Jude》、《Let it be》兩首歌，天天聽，打算把歌曲詳記起來。

《Hey Jude》
Hey Jude, don’t make it bad
Take a sad song and make it better
Remember to let her into your heart
Then you can start to make it better

Hey Jude, don’t be afraid
You were made to go out and get her
The minute you let her under your skin
Then you begin to make it better

And anytime you feel the pain
Hey Jude, refrain
Don’t carry the world upon your shoulders
For well you know that it’s a fool who plays it cool
By making his world a little colder

Hey Jude don’t let me down
You have found her, now go and get her
Remember to let her into your heart
Then you can start to make it better

So let it out and let it in
Hey Jude, begin
You’re waiting for someone to perform with
And don’t you know that it’s just you
Hey Jude, you’ll do
The movement you need is on your shoulder

Hey Jude, don’t make it bad
Take a sad song and make it better
Remember to let her under your skin
Then you begin to make it better
Better, better, better, better, better, oh

Da da da da da
Da da da da hey, Jude………

Yoyo九歲時曾經看過電影後，查詢約翰藍濃的資料，也在電影中知道Joan Baze（瓊・拜雅）：
