聖ピーター大聖堂正面の扉


 一杯 5ペソ(10円)の生ジュースが飛ぶように売れる。
 左がパイナップル、右がココナッツ。加糖してなくて、あっさり味。チンチンに氷で冷えていて、美味しい。



 空港から町へのアプローチは長閑な昔のプエルトプリンセサ(パラワン)の郊外を思い出させた。驚いたのは、賑やかな町にチャーミングな女性がたくさん歩いていたことだった。
 ジュースを飲む彼女は弟にエスコートされていた、かなりの美人。





 トライシクルのドライバー野郎たち。

トゥゲガラオ(Tugegalao) 2

E-5+ZD14-35
(2012/04/28,Tugegalao,Philippines
)

 土曜日午後の町の中心街。
 国中でここが一番多いというトライシクルのほか、ジープニー、自家用車、そしてカレッサが渾然となって走る。


 毎日曜日は朝からごった返すのだという。
 交通整理人がたくさん立つ、聖ピーター大聖堂前の通り。


 カレッサは状況により、けっこう速く通行する。
 乗るのは女子(中学生?)が少なくない。
 中心街はどの通りも落ちてはいないけれど、馬糞が臭う。


 午前9時台にして気温は 40度を超えた、という人もいるが定かではない。
 フィリピン現代史のなかで最高気温を観測した町のもと、排気ガスのせいで不快感が増す。

 ただし、旅行者にとって、町の居心地はとてもよろしい。

 ボクはずいぶん前から次のサイトを読み重ねて参考にしていた。
 8〜9年前の情報が役に立った。

ミッシェル・ファイファー/Makin' Whoopee





Makin' Whoopee

Written by Gus Kahn and Walter Donaldson

Sung by Michelle Pfeiffer

Produced by Dave Grusin and Joel Sill



収録アルバム
The Fabulous Baker Boys ost
1989,MCA



Another bride, another June
Another sunny honeymoon
Another season, another reason
For makin' whoopee

A lot of shoes, a lot of rice
The groom is nervous, he answers twice
It's really killin'
That he's so willin' to make whoopee

Now picture a little love nest
Down where the roses cling
Picture that same sweet love nest
Think what a year can bring

He's washin' dishes and baby clothes
He's so ambitious, he even sews
But don't forget folks
That's what you get folks
For makin' whoopee
For makin' whoopee
For makin' whoopee
For makin' whoopee

収録アルバム
Barbra Streisand/
Barbra Joan Streisan
1971, Columbia



Here comes another dawn
For every child to see
This time the morning sun
Is burning just for me
I've got the skyward eyes
Like I've never had before
Just smile and say goodbye
Show me to the door

For every one there comes a precious time
To break away

I mean to shine
Oh, I mean to shine
As I look at all the morning sun
I know I mean to shine

This day I realized
The world I knew is gone
New seasons come and change
The crown that stood upon
I've been afraid to feel
And scared of falling free

You said so I?m real
It seemed so clear to me
For everyone who breathes
There comes a time to fly away

I mean to shine
0h, I mean to shine
As I look at all the morning sun
I know I mean to shine

For everyone who breathes
There comes a time
To break away

I mean to shine
Oh, I mean to shine
As I look at all morning sun
I know I mean to shine.

The Band/The River Hymn





The River Hymn

Written by Robbie Robertson

Lead vocal : Levon Helm


収録アルバム
The Band/ Cahoots
1971,Capitol



The ladies would put the baskets on the table
And the men would sit beneath a shady tree
The children would listen to a fable
While something else came through to me
The river got no end, just roll around the bend
Then pretty soon the women would all join in
On the river hymn...

The whole congregation was standing on the banks of the river
We are gathered here to give a little thanks thanks

The voice of the rapids will echo
And ricochet like an old water well
Who d ever want to let go
Once you sit beneath its spell
It's dark and wide and deep, towards the sea it creeps
I'm so glad I brought along my mandolin
To play the river hymn...

You can ride on it or drink it
Poison it or dam it
Fish in it and wash in it
Swim in it and you can die in it
Run, you river, run

Son, you ain't never seen yourself
No crystal mirror can show it clear, come over here instead
Son, you ain't never eased yourself
Til you laid it down in a river bed
If you hear a lonesome drone, it's as common as a stone
And gets louder as the day grows dim
That's the river hymn...

The whole congregation was standing on the banks of the river
We are gathered here to give a little thanks thanks

Ants for Breakfast























Ants for Breakfast:
Archaeological Adventures Among the Kalinga


James M. Skibo (著)
Univ of Utah Pr (T) (1999/11)



 著者は米国人。

 北ルソン,カリンガ州のある村の生活文化を紹介している。

 力が入っているのは土器(鍋,釜,壺など)の製作や出荷・販売についてだが,さまざまな習慣についても書いている。1988年のことなので,NPAの活動や村同士の抗争により治安が不安定だった,その緊張のようすが生々しく描かれている。

Moments

Written by Bryn Haworth

Her final studio recording.


収録アルバム
Sandy Denny
The Attic Tracks 1972-1984
1995,Raven



These are the moments that we love so well
Precious moments caught within a spell
All too soon our lives they fade away
These are the moments that we wish would stay

If I had my life to live again
I would choose to be with you my friend
Time moves slowly and it goes so fast
And who knows how long the days will last

So cherish deep within you
The love you get today
Let the moment linger
For tomorrow steals that away
Yes tomorrow steals that away

Cherish deep within you
The love you get today
Let the moment linger
For tomorrow steals that away
Tomorrow steals that away

These are the memories that we made so well
Lives like stories that we long to tell
When we're old with not too much to say
We'll have the memories that we made today

アシュリー・ジャド- Someone Like You





Someone Like You

Written by Van Morrison

Sung by Van Morrison

Produced by Van Morrison,1987



収録アルバム

Someone Like You ost
2001,tvt



I've been searching a long time
For someone exactly like you
I've been traveling all around the world
Waiting for you to come through.
Someone like you makes it
All worth while
Someone like you keeps me satisfied.
Someone exactly like you.

I've been travelin' a hard road
Lookin' for someone exactly like you
I've been carryin' my heavy load
Waiting for the light to come shining through.
Someone like you makes it all worth while
Someone like you keeps me satisfied.
Someone exactly like you.

I've been doin' some soul searching
To find out where you're at
I've been up and down the highway
In all kinds of foreign lands
Someone like you makes it all worth while
Someone like you keeps me satisfied.
Someone exactly like you.
I've been all around the world
Marching to the beat of a different drum.
But just lately I have realized
The best is yet to come.
Someone like you makes it all worth while
Someone like you keeps me satisfied.
Someone exactly like you.
