音乐咖啡厅:Orange Blossom Ring 无名指的思念
英文歌词:
Orange Blossom Ring---The Klezmatics
I loved a man so kind and sweet
And every night we used to meet
He gave to me my orange blossom ring.
He got in trouble down in town
The deputy sheriff shot him down
I wore his golden orange blossom ring.
'Twas on the night we were to wed 1
I got the news that he was dead
I thought of his orange blossom ring.
I drove to the place where he did lay
The last word that I heard him say
O' put away that orange blossom ring.
I would not have you live a life
Of loneliness and tears and strife 2
So put away my orange blossom ring.
Just because I'm dead and gone
I would not see you live alone
And dwell alone with an orange blossom ring.
Another lover I did meet
We're married now with children sweet
He gave to me an orange blossom ring.
Down through these years that we've been wed
I've never to my husband said
This is my second orange blossom ring
歌曲介绍:
Orange Blossom Ring是The Klezmatics 的作品
The Klezmatics，这个乐团1985年在美国纽约成立，原来只包括Dave Lindsay (贝司), Rob Chavez (单簧管), Alicia Svigals (小提琴手)，随后The Klezmer Conservatory乐团小号演奏家Frank London 的加入，几周后Lorin Sklamberg (主唱, 手风琴), Margot Leverett (单簧管)和David Licht (鼓）的参加，进一步完善了乐团的音乐组织结构，并在随后不久受摇滚乐团The Plazmatics名字的启发而给乐团命名为The Klezmatics。 尽管The Klezmatics的音乐受4、50年代的Abe Ellstein和Dave Tarras的音乐作品的深刻影响，但这个乐团创作的东欧传统犹太音乐是非常接近Klezmer曲风的，他们的歌词因广泛涉及当时的政治和社会时事，做为一个急进的犹太传统乐团，形成了这个乐团独特的音乐标签。
