小香姑

星期六晚一個人在家開著電視卻專心看著報紙。。突然被一段熟悉的旋律吸引。。原來是《小香姑》選舉表演嘉賓在唱著一首超過三十年的金曲 《What is a YOUTH?》 ~ 這是68年版電影《Romeo & Juliet》風靡一時的主題曲。可恨表演嘉賓把聲唱不到這歌卻勉強唱出，而且還用她唱時下流行歌的那種哭笑難分的唱腔高唱，難聽恐怖！救命！直把成首歌唱壞了。。

What is a Youth

What is a youth?
Impetuous fire.
What is a maid?
Ice and desire.
The world wags on, a rose will bloom....
It then will fade:
so does a youth,
so does the fairest maid.
Comes a time when one sweet smile has a season for a while....
Then love's in love with me.
Some they think only to marry,
others will tease and tarry.
Mine is the very best parry.
Cupid he rules us all.
Caper the cape, but sing me the song,
Death will come soon to hush us along.
Sweeter than honey... and bitter as gall,
Love is a task and it never will pall.
Sweeter than honey and bitter as gall.
Cupid rules us all.

在電影中，羅生同茱小姐就在這首歌的歌聲中邂逅熱戀，其宿命性的悲劇便在這悲歌中開始。。桔早幾年為這首歌，傻到要越洋在英國那邊訂電影原聲 CD 回來哩！

講開班小香姑，一直奇怪為何年年仍有這麼多明明生得唔靚樣子平凡到爆都走去選美？究於不自知還是自信心強爆鏡睇唔清自己的樣子？於是桔也曾幻想過去參選做限香姑然後好快落選又在不用履行任何困身的職務便可快快結識富貴的總理們。。哈哈哈。當然。。這是得個諗字。。因為桔有自知之明嘛，丟架都唔好咁揚丫。。費事識得的親朋戚友受驚嚇得心臟病發啦！〔哈哈〕
