音乐咖啡厅:Maid Of Culmore 淡淡的思念之声-Cara Dillon
Cara Dillon:她出生于1975年，来自一个爱尔兰传统音乐世家。她的声音如此清透美丽而极具风格，让观众们觉得相间恨晚。用这样一句话来形容Cara Dillon不足为过：Cara Dillon是个不寻常的天才！ 14岁的时候，Cara Dillon就赢得了全爱尔兰传统歌唱比赛冠军。在开始她自己喜欢的事业之前，她和她的伙伴Sam Lakeman和一家唱片公司签约想做流行歌手，可之后他们发现自己并不喜欢做流行音乐。于是他们出了一张凄美的民歌专集Cara Dillon/Rough Trade Records，出乎意料地赢得了广泛好评。这股随之而来的Cara Dillon效应让她和她的伙伴完全转型。而之后她所获得的无数奖项更加肯定了他们的转型。 《爱尔兰音乐杂志》说，Cara Dillon冷酷却富有感染力的声音包含着她对家乡的热情和对国家的热爱。

曲名：the maid of culmore
歌手：cara dillon
歌词：
Leaving sweet lovely Derry for fair London town
There is no finer harbour all around can be found
Where the younsters each evening go down to the shore
And the joy bells are ringing for the maid of Culmore
The first time I saw her she passed me by
And the next time I saw her she bid me goodbye
But the last time I saw her it grieved my heart sore
For she sailed down Loch Foyle and away from Culmore
If I had the power the storms for to rise
I would make the wind blow and I'd darken the skies
I make the wind blow high and the salt seas to roar
Til the day that my darling sailed away from Culmore
To the back parts of America my love I'll go and see
For it's there I know no-one and no-one knows me
But if I don't find her I'll return home no more
Like a pilgrim I'll wander for the maid of Culmore
