The Sound Of Silence (翻唱) (图)

再贴一首个人翻唱的。本想做成音画贴但是不会，所以抓个 图拼起来凑数。 这首歌最先是从大学时的校园歌唱比赛上听来的。优美的旋律以及 弹唱选手不错的发挥，使我一下就记住了这首歌。后来慢慢地自己也能用简单的吉 它分解和弦配合着弹唱了。N 年前还因此在公司 Christmas Party 的Talent Show 上拿了个第一，以及晚会上唯一的$200 现金奖。其实当时自己发挥的很差(因为没 有舞台经验)。在台上唱到一半时我已经开始后悔自己居然报名参赛。不过山中无老 虎猴子称霸王，后来跌跌撞撞还是挤进了前三(进前三的还有一个小品类和一个老美 的吉它SOLO)。晚会主要是娱乐性质，所以最后第一名的决定也很随意：看观众的反 映。当主持人喊我名字的时候，观众的掌声似乎更热烈一些，于是我就这样稀里糊 涂地混了个第一。 这个版本是半年前在周围的一片贴歌热中，心血来潮用简易的 Windows recorder 匆忙录制的(之前还从来没有玩过电脑录音)。很奇怪这第一次录下的版本竟然最终 成为了(自己认为) 最好的一个版本。为了改进喷麦问题后来曾试着重录了几次，但 却发现怎么也唱不出最初这次的效果了。 "The Sound Of Silence" 歌词: Hello darkness my old friend. I've come to talk with you again. Because a vision softly creeping. Left its seeds while I was sleeping. And the vision that was planted in my brain. Still remains within the sound of silence In restless dreams I walk alone. Narrow streets of cobble stone Beneath the hallo of a street lamp, I turned my collar to the cold and damp When my eyes were stabbled by the flash of a neon light That split the night. And touched the sound of silence And in the naked night I saw ten thousand people may be more People talking without speaking people hearing without listening People writing songs that voices never share And no one dare disturb the sound of silence "Fool" said I "you do not know, Silence like a cancer grows Hear my words that I might teach you, Take my arms that I might reach you But my words like silent rain-drops fell, And echo-ed in the wells of silence And the people bow and prayed, to the neon God they made And the sign flash out its warning, In the words that it was forming And the sign said "The words of the prophers are written the subway walls, and tenement halls", And whispered in the sounds of silence
