♪ Smile - スマイル-Charlie Chaplin -Chromatic Harmonica クロマチック　ハーモニカ

Описание: スマイル - Funny how we remember the first time we hear certain song. When I first heard "Smile" was on TV "The Carol Burnett Show" in early 70's. Not sure who was singing, a guest lady singer who dressed up like a girl. Back then, I just came to America alone, and was going through plenty of emotional turmoil incidental to adolescence teen. I was sad and feeling down when I heard the song, "Smile". I remember it cheered me up more than several occasions in my life by this song. It was a long time before I realized it was composed by Charlie Chaplin in 1936. The beautiful up-building lyric was written by John Turner and Geoffrey Parsons in 1954. I liked watching "Charlie Chaplin" movies filled with laughter and tears (pathos). Chaplin received "Honorary Award" in 1972 Academy Award which I did watch. He received longest standing ovation which lasted 12 minutes. I used Suzuki G-48 chromatic. I hope you enjoy my rendition.
アメリカに一人で来た70年代当時、思春期にありがちな色々な悩みで落ち込んでた時、テレビで初めて聞いた歌「スマイル」。英語の歌詞を一言一言口ずさんで励まされました。あのチャップリンさんの1936年の作曲と分かったのはかなり後。簡素で美しい歌ですね。チャップリンさんの映画は皆、笑いと涙の名作ですね。好きです。77年に亡くなる前に、アカデミー賞の特別賞を受賞するのに現れた実際の姿、初めて見ました。え～っ、この人が～？　とても優しいおじさんでした。僕のこのバージョンは　スズキ　G-48クロマチックで録音しました。聞いて下さり、ありがとう。
