如果想學易於朗朗上口、歌詞又寓含深意的經典老歌，我推薦妳一首四十多年前的老歌 Those were the days。 ! G! A4 U* G% c9 ~ g: d B- Z" v. C9 ?. _- W6 m
這首歌是 Mary Hopkins 在 1968 年發行的處女作。原曲來自二十世紀初的蘇聯吉普賽歌謠 Dorogoi dlinnoyu (Дорогой длинною)，第一個錄音作品是西元 20 年代蘇聯的全能文藝青年 Alexander Vertinsky。Mary Hopkins 的作品則是最受歡迎的英譯版本。 v0 N- a' N# T! _' G- ?! S9 U; O* y$ O3 Y
