网友点评

Billie Holiday在录制《I Cover the Waterfront (Live)》时,突发灵感,决定即兴发挥。她穿着破旧风衣,手持香烟,嗓音沙哑而深情,仿佛与歌词中的孤独海港融为一体。录制现场,她的乐队临时加入了一段即兴爵士乐,与Billie的演唱完美融合。录制结束后,Billie激动地拥抱了乐手们,称这是她一生中最难忘的演出。这段花絮后来成为乐迷津津乐道的佳话。

歌词

[00:00.01]I Cover the Waterfront - Billie Holiday (比莉·哈乐黛)

[00:00.02]Written by:Simons/Marks/Edward Heyman/Johnny Green

[00:10.15]Away from the city that hurts and knocks

[00:18.58]I'm standing alone by the desolate docks

[00:27.60]In the still and the chill of the night

[00:35.92]I see the horizon the great unknown

[00:46.25]My heart has an ache

[00:51.88]It's as heavy as stone

[00:56.50]With the dawn coming on make it last

[01:07.65]I cover the waterfront

[01:16.34]I'm watching the sea

[01:22.26]Will the one I love

[01:26.28]Be coming back to me

[01:38.56]I cover the waterfront

[01:46.99]In search of my love

[01:52.68]An I'm covered

[01:58.40]By a starlit sky above

[02:09.05]Here am I

[02:12.47]Patiently waiting

[02:16.09]Hoping and longing

[02:19.43]Oh how I yearn

[02:22.83]Where are you

[02:26.36]Have you thought back time

[02:30.09]Will you remember

[02:33.46]Will you return

[02:37.79]I cover the waterfront

[02:43.91]I'm watching the sea

[02:49.20]Will the one I love

[02:52.75]Be coming back to me

[03:00.77]Will the one I love

[03:06.03]Be coming back to me
