I WENT TO YOUR WEDDING - Original & Remade 中詞西曲




I Went to Your Wedding
"愛人結婚了 ...."
身處舊愛的婚禮, 目睹一對新人步入教堂之時, 泛起了難捨難離的心情, 令失落感倍增。一首五十年代的經典作品, 每當聽到這一曲的音樂引子, Patti Page 和"銀嗓子"姚莉的歌聲, 即刻從腦海中浮現出來。




原 作 品
是出自藍調女歌手 Jessie Mae Robinson 的手筆, 她是美國樂壇, 少數能衝破膚色藩籬的黑人創作歌手之一。作品首唱錄音是1952年六月, 交由 Damita Jo 演譯, 但唱片面世後, 反應未如理想; 同年八月, 再交由鋼琴女歌手 Hadda Brooks 和出道幾年的 Patti Page, 分別由兩人的唱片公司錄製, 而這歌曲卻成為 Patti Page 自1947年出道以來, 繼1950年的 "All My Love (Bolero) 和 "Tennessee Waltz" 之後另一首招牌歌曲, 與B-面 "You Belong to Me" 的單曲細唱片, 打進1952年八月美國流行榜 "Billboard Chart" 達二十一星期, 亦一度登上榜首位置。


1952 June : "I Went To Your Wedding" - Damita Jo


1952 August : "I Went To Your Wedding" - Patti Page 

1952 Little Sylvia with Buddy Lucas Orchestra
        Stu. Davis


1953 : "I Went to Your Wedding" - Alma Cogan 

1953年, 另一版本由英國女歌手 Alma Cogan 演譯, 在英國同被樂迷歡迎。在美國 Hank Snow 的男版, 在鄉謠榜 "Billboard Hot Country Single Chart" 亦登上榜首。繼而, 歌曲被當年以胡鬧諧趣著名的組合 Spike Jones & his City Slicker 改篇成惹笑諧趣版本亦大受歡迎; 五十年之後, 2012年 Ray Stevens 的翻唱版本, 更被篇列入 "The Encyclopedia of Recorded Comedy Music 諧趣歌曲唱片大全", 可惜找不到這個現代版的錄音, 反而1952年 Spike Jones 的 78rpm 舊版本唱片仍可從網上平台有上載。



"I Went to Your Wedding" - Spike Jones & his City Slicker - 1952 Parody Version


I went to your wedding
Although I was dreading
The thought of seeing you...(laugh)... oh, that face!
My poor heart was praying
To hear the groom saying
"I do, I do, I do"... (laugh)... oh, that poor fish...
I'm sorry.
You tripped on the aisle
Fell flat on your... (laugh)... smile
Your father was loaded too...(laugh)... oh, what a mess!
He dragged your bouquet
The rest of the way
And then... (snigger)... and then... (laugh)...
He went back and dragged you... (laugh)
Your mother was laughing
Your father was laughing
And I was... (manic laughter)... too
We all had hysterics
At last we got rid of YOU!


1962 The Lennon Sisters
1963 Angel Martin
1965 Slim Whitman
1966 Paul Anka
1967 Bonnie Guitar

"I Went to Your Wedding" - Victor Woods 1972
How glad I am now that I've seen you again
After so many years you've been gone
You left just as soon as you wedding was over
Not knowing that I was there ....

香 港 HONG KONG: 中詞西曲

1970 "夢裡的新娘" 
主唱 : 姚莉
和唱 : 張露, 逸敏, 鄧白英
我漫步在樹林, 月光層層隱隱, 寒風帶來淒清。
那寂寞的心靈, 永遠不能安定, 我要等待你來臨。

你披着長紗, 戴着鲜花, 走近到我身旁。
我痴痴地望, 默默地想, 但願不是在夢鄉。

我靜靜的思量, 人生本是夢鄉, 忘卻苦痛悲傷。
願夢裡的新娘, 從此不離我身旁。

你披着長紗, 戴着鲜花, 走近到我身旁。
我痴痴地望, 默默地想, 但願不是在夢鄉。

我靜靜的思量, 人生本是夢鄉, 忘卻苦痛悲傷。
願夢裡的新娘, 從此不離我身旁。
