Tea Music 4_1 Tale of a Small Town 小城故事
- 4 years ago
Original song written by Zhuang Nu, composed by Weng Ching-Hsi
Lyrics interpretation: Small towns are full of stories / full of joy and happiness / if you come to our small town / you will never forget it
This song, released in 1979 as the theme to the Taiwanese film of the same name, tells the story of the small Taiwanese mountain town of Sanyi as it undergoes generational changes. Teresa Teng’s charmingly simplistic vocal rendition was so compelling that the film’s box office performance reached unexpected heights. This song, originally a melodious traditional tune, is portrayed on this album through the lens of modern instrumentation, at times light and refreshing, at others overflowing with vitality, standing proud as an homage to rustic, natural charm. The song ends with poetic imagery carrying with it subtle tones of bittersweet memories.
原曲：翁清溪 原词：庄奴
歌词摘选：小城故事多/充满喜和乐/若是你到小城来/收获特别多
发行于1979年的台湾经典电影《小城故事》，以群山怀抱的三义为背景，讲述时代变迁中的小城风情。邓丽君为电影演唱的这支同名主题曲，在朴实无华的曲调中展现出意蕴无穷的魅力，在当时直接推动了电影票房的飙升。原曲中由传统民乐演绎的柔美旋律，如今在西洋化的器乐语言诠释下，时而清新淡雅，时而又充满明朗活力，洋溢着对淳朴人情的赞美。乐曲最终在一片诗情画意的意境中，收束于蕴含着淡淡感伤的回忆。
