Many Rivers To Cross |
---|
映画「ハイ・フィデリティ」で、主人公が葬式の時にかけてほしい曲としてあげた中にジミー・クリフの名曲「メニー・リヴァース・トゥ・クロス」(69年)がありました。(11月9日の日記参照) で、その曲、今日本の車のCMに使われてるんですね。すばるのレガシーのバックで流れていました。 この曲で思い出すのが、映画「ジェイソンズ・リリック」(94年)のラストシーン。ここでは、オリータ・アダムスのヴァージョンが流れてきました。渡るべき多くの川がある・・・。いいですねえ。川、橋・・・。いろいろな作品が生まれるテーマです。 Many Rivers To Cross [Jimmy Cliff] Many rivers to cross But I can't seem to find my way over Wandering I am lost as I travel along The white cliffs of Dover Many rivers to cross and it's only my will That keeps me alive I've been licked, washed up for years and I merely survive because of my pride And this loneliness won't leave me alone It's such a drag to be on your own My woman left and she didn't say why Well I guess, I got try Many rivers to cross but where to begin I'm playing for time There'll be times when I find myself thinking Of committing some dreadful crime I've got many rivers to cross But I can't seem to find my way over Wandering I am lost as I travel along The white cliffs of Dover Many rivers to cross and it's only my will That keeps me alive I've been licked, washed up for years and I merely survive because of my pride |
