(2013-05-13 11:37:39) 下一个


Don't cry Joni,  琼尼别哭!

琼尼别哭, 美国乡村音乐的代表作
一首真真乡村经典; 1975Conway Twitty与他的女儿Joni Lee合唱的出自专辑“The very best of Conway Twitty”;

质朴的歌词, 伤感的故事,  浅浅的叙述弥漫着一种淡淡欲罢不能的忧伤男女主人公不动声色的对白就像是吃着一粒甜中带着涩的青果


缓缓的, 缓缓的, 听着听着,  让人想起了很多,很多事情如果没有珍惜,一旦错过就可能永远失去;

 
Don't cry Joni,   叙述一个男孩与女孩忧伤的爱情故事…..


 

  (Joni)
