You thought you had forgotten, but you didn't.
"What a Wonderful World" is not a rare song. In almost all records involving Louis Armstrong, in many collections with the title of "Nostalgic Classics", and even in a few TV commercials, you You can hear this soothing and warm old song.
This is a song with a simple melody and a simple lyrics that is close to a nursery rhyme. If it is sung by a Yushu Linfeng party singer, it must be of the kind that will be scorned by every literary and artistic youth who thinks it has depth. But when it flows from the hoarse throat of Grandpa Armstrong, the song suddenly has an indescribable magic: green trees, red flowers, blue sky, white clouds, this kind of vulgar word can't be more vulgar. , If it comes from the mouth of a weather-beaten old man, it seems to be radiated with new vitality. Perhaps, only people who have experienced the world and who have no desires are strong can regain this innocence, look at the world and life with such a peaceful and freehand attitude?
This feeling is like "smiling with flowers", quite Zen.
This old song used to run through the whole of a movie. The name of this movie is "12 Monkeys". What is a...? sci-fi movie? Haha, it’s a very long memory again. Regarding this film, what I can remember is only the paradox of "can one change the past" that many film directors are willing to discuss, and Brad Pitt’s neuroticism. And childish face.
By the way, there is a character in this film, the real culprit who almost caused the destruction of mankind, and his actor is a super supporting role in Hollywood. The roles he has played are the rebel officers in The Rock, the prison guard in Green Mile, and the Dancer in the Dark. The policeman in (Dancer in the Dark) who stole Bjork's hard-earned money. I checked Imdb, the actor was named David Morse, born in 1953, and he has acted in countless films, but he has never been popular. I wonder if this man who has passed his fateful year, when looking back on the past, would he smile and sing "What a Wonderful World"?
The WHAT A WONDERFUL WORLD
Louis Armstrong
the I See Trees of Green, Red Roses TOO
I saw the green trees, red roses
I see them bloom for me and you
I see them, for you and me bloom
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world
I said to myself: what a wonderful world ah
I see skies of blue and clouds of white
I see blue sky, white clouds
the bright blessed day, the dark sacred night
bright holy day, black and solemn night
and I think to myself, what a wonderful world
I said to myself: what a wonderful world ah
The colours of the rainbow, so pretty in the sky
a rainbow of beautiful colors, not only bloom in the sky
Are also on the faces of people going by
more filled in the coming and going, everyone's face
I see friends shakin 'hands, sayin ' "How do you do?"
I see friends shaking hands and exchanged greetings
they're really saying "I love you "
they are actually saying: "I love you,"
the I hear Babies Cryin', the I Watch them Grow
I hear kids crying, I watch them grow
they'll learn much more than I'll ever know
they are going to understand, many things we do not know
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world
I said to myself: what a wonderful world ah
yes, I think to myself, what a wonderful world
I said to myself: what a wonderful world ah
Oh yeah
