The Enchantress -  Dame Clara Butt recorded 1917

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UtDzFhmCqXo&hd=1

By the lore of ages far
By the rites which cowards shun
I, from grave, and herb, and star
Have my wand of triumph won
Warriors I have brought to shame
Turning glory to disgrace
Kings have trembled when I came
Reading doom upon my face.
But for thee, but for thee
My wild hair shall braided be
With the rose of richest breath
With the jasmine, white as death
With the jasmine, white as death
And my voice, in music flow
And my eyes all gently glow
For believe me, love like ours
Is the pow'r of magic pow'rs
For believe me, for believe me
For believe me, love like ours
Is the pow'r, the pow'r of magic pow'rs
Of magic pow'rs
For believe me, love like ours
Is the pow'r of magic pow'rs

Toscanini 曾經話過美國女低音 Marian Anderson 係百年一遇嘅靚聲, 如果以此為標準, 咁英國嘅女低音天后 Dame Clara Butt 就肯定係千年難得一遇嘅奇才, 呢首歌搵勻全 youtube 都搵唔到有其他人翻唱, 唔知係咪因為難度大高???

蘇聯膽機果然名不虛傳, 61 年前可以有咁發燒嘅錄音, 不過演繹手法就好俄羅斯, 爽朗得嚟有點燥火, 尤其歌唱部份, 除咗唱俄文之外, 仲要唱到喊打喊殺, 好似革命歌咁, 唔知係咪史太林下令要咁演???

同樣係 Abendroth, 四個月之後喺另一國家, 另一樂團指揮同一樂曲, 出嚟嘅係完全另一面目, 冇咗莫斯科版嘅殺氣騰騰, 多返 D 德奧風華, 雖然唱嘅係捷克語, 但係不失貝多芬原來嘅精神, 遺憾嘅係布拉格嘅錄音設備唔及莫斯科先進。

《可憐阿伯大》上官流雲 + 巫美玲 195X - 196X

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eupFmz8pc3A&hd=1

可憐阿伯大 年紀已七十八
還沒人叫他爸爸 是否有Salah
可憐阿伯大 滿頭的白頭髮
還沒人叫他Cinta
是否有Salah 噢呀 阿伯
他說他年輕啦
爸爸呀還沒有Kahwin啦 Anak呀還沒有Nikah啦
Muda Muda Muda Muda Muda

可憐阿媽大 年紀已七十八
還沒人叫她媽媽 是否有Salah
可憐阿媽大 Kepala有白頭髮
還沒人叫他Bonda
是否有Salah 噢呀 阿伯
他說他年輕啦
爸爸呀還沒有Kahwin啦 Anak呀還沒有Nikah啦
Muda Muda Muda Muda Muda

注释：

cinta = 爱情 salah = 错 kahwin = 结婚
anak = 儿子 nikah = 婚姻 muda = 年轻
kepala = 头 bonda = 母亲

「可怜阿伯大」是上世纪50年代或60年代初，由上官流云、巫美玲合作灌唱的作品。作品词作者不详，只注佚名词，但词掺杂本土味十足的马来词语； 是上官流云的特色「例如 "新马来情歌"」，应该是出自他手笔的作品。 上官流云的「甜蜜蜜」版本一早便面世了，后来才有邓丽君的版本 (臺灣莊奴詞)。不同的是，上官流云的歌曲以搞笑加点熟悉的马来语为题材，邓丽君则把它唱成抒情曲，因邓丽君的盛名，歌曲流行度较广。两个版本的歌曲 「可怜阿伯大」/「甜蜜蜜」， 旋律却一模一样，它源自一首印尼（或马来）民歌。印尼的版叫做「Dayung Sampan」。「Dayung Sampan」是 Osman Ahmad ( 1910 - 1964) 为1950年巫语电影「Aloha」而写的。 如今歌曲音乐成为了一首大家所熟悉的印尼歌谣。Osman Ahmad的另一首世界著名的马来亞名谣是「Di Tanjung Katong」。

甜蜜蜜　你笑得甜蜜蜜

你的笑容這樣熟悉
我一時想不起 啊 在夢裡

夢裡夢裡見過你　甜蜜笑得多甜蜜
是你 是你 夢見的就是你
