今日は久方ぶりに唄。全くウエットでノスタルジックな懐古趣味 全開でいく。
美空ひばりは別格にして、昭和で好みの女性シンガーが三人いた。北原ミレイとちあきなおみともう一人、青江三奈。彼女がNYで録音したレコード音源から。
BOURBON STREET BLUES ～ 伊勢佐木町ブルース
There is no moon tonight
And I have no one to meet
Under the sodium lights
I walk alone on Bourbon St.
As the darkness comes again
Everywhere I see
Images of where and when
You took your love away from me
*So jazzman, play me a tune
Doo doobee, doobee, doobee, doobee, doo ba
To sing the moonlight blues and sing the moonlight blues
What good are memories when
We only color them blue
Consider sadness a friend
And every thought I have is you
Old habits guide my feet
The young must find their way
Dreams we made on Bourbon St.
May never see the light of day
*Repeat
