N年前一个朋友推荐这首歌给我，当时怎么也无法理解这首歌的真正含义，而且觉得这种平淡的歌很难唱出彩。2009年有幸去看了由Catherine Zeta-Jones 主演的这部百老汇音乐剧，这才对此歌的背景和内涵有了进一步的理解。这是一首刻画人物复杂内心世界的歌曲。当女主人公Desiree 被男主人公Fredrik婉言拒绝后，交织着悔恨，自嘲，寂寞和伤感的复杂心情，女主人公自言自语般地唱起了这首歌。。。

BTW, Catherine Zeta-Jones 真的好漂亮啊！舞台上的她光艳照人，本人比镜头里更美。她的表演和歌声将人物的内心世界刻画得入木三分，令人难忘。

三年前为录制此歌还专门去听了两堂大师的课，

但录好后不是很满意，一直压在箱底，只给那一个朋友听过。今天是个好日子（有意外的惊喜和预定的庆祝），早晨就想着下班回来唱首“好日子”与大家分享喜悦，但一顿火锅下肚唱不出来了，时间也太仓促了。就把这首陈年老货翻出来晒晒吧。虽然气氛不太相符，但也算给自己留个纪念吧～～

【Send in the clowns】
From the Broadway Musical
Composed by Stephen Sondheim
Covered by 梦圆

Isn't it rich?
Are we a pair?
Me here at last on the ground,
You in mid-air.
Send in the clowns.

Isn't it bliss?
Don't you approve?
One who keeps tearing around,
One who can't move.
Where are the clowns?
Send in the clowns.

Just when I'd stopped opening doors,
Finally knowing the one that I wanted was yours,
Making my entrance again with my usual flair,
Sure of my lines,
No one is there.

Don't you love farce?
My fault I fear.
I thought that you'd want what I want.
Sorry, my dear.
But where are the clowns?
There ought to be clowns.
Quick, send in the clowns.

What a surprise.
Who could foresee
I'd come to feel about you
What you'd felt about me?
Why only now when i see
That you'd drifted away?
What a surprise.
What a cliché.

Isn't it rich?
Isn't it queer,
Losing my timing this late
In my career?
But where are the clowns?
Quick send in the clowns,
Don’t bother,
They’re here


卡太牛赠的小诗一首：

《梦滴赐予》

不管你耐不耐
梦滴美丽
总是梦赐予滴奇迹
你身上滴幸福
有如新叶上滴春天

虽什么也不知
只是这样滴渴望
梦在春色中张扬
你赐予滴美丽
犹如剑锋上滴闪光

哈哈。。。写不下去啦， 牛银们接着来！
