THE CARTER FAMILY
1936年六月八日, The Carter Family 在 New York 紐約 Decca Records 唱片公司錄製的 78RPM 唱片面世, A-面的歌曲 "My Dixie Darling", 放在 B-面的 "Are You Lonesome Tonight?" 有兩段歌詞是取自 Lou Handman 和 Roy Turk 同曲目的作品, 不同之處衹是 Carter Family 以鄉謠歌曲模式演繹, 而曲調亦不一樣, 在唱片和封套上祇見 A.P.Carter 的名字; 這版本在美國流行樂壇不被注目, 至今, 原唱與翻唱的版本少見, 可視為珍藏了!
"ARE YOU LONESOME TONIGHT?" - The Carter Family - 1936
Vocal: A.P. Carter
Vocal, Harp & Guitar: Sara Carter
Vocal & Guitar: Maybelle Carter Are you lonesome tonight? Do you miss me, I say?
Are you sorry we drifted apart?
Does your memories cling to that bright summer day
When I kissed you and called you sweetheart?
Are you sorry we drifted apart?
Does your memories cling to that bright summer day
When I kissed you and called you sweetheart?
Like the rose on the vine, I am clinging to you
As I did when we drifted apart
I am wishing you back to that little shack
Where I kissed you and called you sweetheart
As I did when we drifted apart
I am wishing you back to that little shack
Where I kissed you and called you sweetheart
Does the chair in your parlor seem empty and bare?
Do you miss me and wish I was there?
Is your heart filled with pain? Shall I come back again?
Tell me, darling, are you lonesome tonight?
Do you miss me and wish I was there?
Is your heart filled with pain? Shall I come back again?
Tell me, darling, are you lonesome tonight?
I have counted the days, I've counted the nights
I've counted the months and the years
I have counted on you since we drifted apart
Tell me, darling, are you lonesome tonight?
I've counted the months and the years
I have counted on you since we drifted apart
Tell me, darling, are you lonesome tonight?
