Erindringsstump – Oh, what a beautiful morning
8. april 2009Det var i engelsklærerinde Helligsøes timer vi sang den. Oh What A Beatiful Morning. Og teksten ligger stadigvæk og roder derinde og dukker nu og da op. The Corn is high as an Elephants Eye. Everything is going my Way. Og selv om denne morgen er grå, og jeg er mere træt, end godt er – og arbejdet kalder – så er det også en smuk morgen.
Curly:
There’s a bright, golden haze on the meadow
There’s a bright, golden haze on the meadow.
The corn is as high as an elephant’s eye
And it looks like it’s climbing clear up to the sky.
Oh, what a beautiful Mornin’
Oh, what a beautiful day.
I’ve got a beautiful feelin’
Everything’s goin’ my way.
All the cattle are standin’ like statues
All the cattle are standin’ like statues
They don’t turn their heads as they see me ride by
But a little brown mav’rick is winkin’ her eye
Oh, what a beautiful Mornin’
Oh, what a beautiful day.
I’ve got a beautiful feelin’
Everything’s goin’ my way.
All the sounds of the earth are like music
All the sounds of the earth are like music
The breeze is so busy it don’t miss a tree
An’ a ol’ weepin’ willer is laughin’ at me
Oh, what a beautiful Mornin’
Oh, what a beautiful day.
I’ve got a beautiful feelin’
Everything’s goin’ my way.
Oh, what a beautiful day!

Skæg version du har valgt! Han er musikalsk ud i fingerspidserne og gør det til et Ray-nummer.

@Donald: Ja, det var for fristende at tage Ray Charles’ udgave, selv om den udgave, vi sang, lÃ¥ meget mere op af musicalversionen. I øvrigt synes jeg stadigvæk, at det er en dejlig melodi – uanset udgaven.
