Queen of the Night

Atlantic, 1974

I am a woman

And I had my freedom

I was the universe in your eyes

I was the sunset and surprise

Would you love me? Love me.

I know you send your regards

To the Queen of the Night

She twisted your hair

Held it with love at night

The flow from her sweet tongue

How could you let it fool you to thinking

You're winning

Life is but so in pain

I know you send your regards

To the Queen of the Night

I am a woman

And I had my freedom

And I was the universe

And I was the sunset and surprise

And would you love me?

I know you send your regards

To the Queen of the Night

Oh, regards to the Queen of the Night

(She's the Queen of the Night)

Yes, I'm a sweet lovin' woman

(She's the Queen of the Night)

Oh, yeah, give me some lovin'

(She's the Queen of the Night)

I'm a sweet lovin' woman

(She's the Queen of the Night)

Oh, yeah I need some lovin'

(She's the Queen of the Night)

Sweet lovin' woman

(She's the Queen of the Night)

Mercury, 2013

If you're traveling in the north country fair

Where the winds hit heavy on the borderline

Remember me to the one who lives there

She was once a true love of mine

And if you're goin' when the snowflakes storm

When the rivers freeze and summer ends

Please see for me she has a coat so warm

to keep her from the howling wind

Would you see for me that her hair's hanging long

That it rolls and flows all down her breasts

See for me that her hair's hanging long

'Cause that's the way I remember her best

But I'm a-wondering if she remembers me at all

Many times I've often prayed

in the darkness of my night

in the brightness of my day

So if you're traveling in the north country fair

Where the winds hit heavy on the borderline

Remember me to the one who lives there

'Cause she was once, she was once a true love of mine

And she'll always be a true love of mine

And I never, never, never, never give her up

今日の富山市

E-510+ZD11-22

 (2014/01/10,富山市,Nippon )

ビッグピンクから，何といったか野球場が見える。

E-5の水準器に慣れていると，それがついていないカメラで撮るときに意図しない傾がりが現れてしまう。

昨日は，Honda Carsに入ってきていたボクの Vezelと対面した。

ガソリン G-AWDなので*，外から覗いた限りはセンターコンソールの黒色がハイブリッド・タイプのピアノブラックとは見劣りがした。あとはまだよく分らないけれど，それもボクらしいのかもしれない。

ボディカラーは美しかった。うっすら雪を被っていて，サイドから眺め，擦っただけだが，どきどきしてしまった。

何色?...田舎町のことなので，しばらくは公表しない。

　
* HONDAは，ハイブリッドに誘導しようと，インテリアやオプションの選択幅とか，あからさまにガソリン車を差別してみせている。
　ま，それでも，1500cc前後のクラスで車高のある車を出してくれたのは，ありがたい，と感じている。
　前車，HR-Vが絶版になって以来のことで，待って待っていたのだ。

Angels of Ashes

Written by Scott Walker

Producer : John Franz

収録アルバム

Scott Walker/Scott 4

Philips, 1969

The Angels of Ashes 

Will give back your passions

Again and again

Their light shafts

Will reach through the darkness

And touch you my friend

They'll fly in a mind dance

And blind you with wings

Wrapped in flame

If you're down to an echo

They just might remember

Your name

In the unbroken darkness

Where emptiness empties

Alone

There's no starting or stopping

Where there is no right or

No wrong

Well that's all right for some

Who can hang the absurd

On their wall

If your blind hands can't grope

Through these measureless waters

You'll fall

You've been following patterns

And fleeting sensations

Too long

And the fullness that fills up

The pulse of durations

Is gone

Let the great constellation

Of flickering ashes

Be heard

Let them burn with a fire

All it takes to confess

Is a word, just a word

I can recommend angels

I've watched as they've made a man strong

Oh so strong

If your humbleness shows

Then I'm sure that they'll take you

Along

You can tell them who sent you

It might help to get you

Above

You can say that he laughed

And he walked like St. Francis

With love
