Her voice is full of money

Take The A train说是Duke Ellington的作品，其实作曲是Bill Strayhorn，前者在编曲中的最大贡献是说出了歌名这句话。彼时前者已经成名成腕，后者前往纽约投靠，在DE写给BS的指路便条上让他先搭A Train。最早听歌词里“错过A线便错过去哈林最快的车”，我以为爵士意指哈林是非裔美国人在纽约的精神故乡。后来得知了指路典故才晓得是爵士家住那，想多了。 午夜无眠，床头投影仪的绿灯在朦胧中忽明忽暗，仿佛盖茨比眼中的绿光。无意也无力关掉设备，任凭它闪烁。盖茨比和黛西的住处在东南角的长岛，我却不止一次偏执的想想他们住在哈林以北，A Train可以通达的地方。静谧处忽然一个声音响起“Her voice is full of money”。 That was it. I'd never understood before.It was full of money-that was the inexhaustible charmthat rose and fell in it, the jingle of it, the cymbals' song of it. 也许这便是那盏灭不了的绿灯。 #IllinteracyJH# http://t.cn/A65NcRiN
