第一次聽到這首曲子When I dream ,是韓國電影「魚」把它拿來當電影的主題曲,而且就是Carol Kidd唱的版本。很多年來,頂多因為電影找到這首歌曲來聽,卻仍不知道演唱者是誰。然後大學畢業後某一天我們一群高中死黨到老師家吃飯,邊喝茶邊聊天聽音樂,突然聽到音響中放出的就是這首歌。從此Carol Kidd就是我cd架上不可少的演唱者,只可惜因為我的不積極,這麼晚才認識她。
關於Carol Kidd還可以參考http://musicalsound.com.tw/cd/jazz/carol%20kidd.htm或是上網google一下都很容易有所查獲,就不在此贅述囉。
When I dream歌詞如下:
I could build a mansion
that is higher than the trees
I could have all the gifts I want
and never ask please
I could fly to Paris
it's at my beck and call
Why do I live my life alone
with nothing at all
But when I dream
I dream of you
Maybe someday you will come true
When I dream
I dream of you
Maybe someday you will come true
I can be the singer
or the clown in every room
I can call up someone
to take me to the moon
I can put my makeup on
and drive the men insane
I can go to bed alone
and never know his name
But when I dream
I dream of you
Maybe someday you will come true
When I dream
I dream of you
Maybe someday you will come true
