推荐苏格兰歌手——Moira Kerr

livjonpink

         Moira Kerr是英国非主流音乐的首席女歌手，她的歌极富苏格兰风情，毫不娇柔造作， 极易错过却极为耐听。除了参加公共音乐会，Moira Kerr更喜欢规模较小的，私人的或者公司的演出活动。她的幽默感和她的苏格兰歌曲吸引了广泛的听众。
她从三岁开始唱歌，后来顺理成章地成为歌手。她的歌一般都是关于苏格兰和高地，以一种独特的视角表达了她对祖国的热爱。而且，她的歌题材广泛，如Maclain of Glencoe描写的是Glen Coe大屠杀，而这首歌讲述的是Charles Edward Stuart的英雄事迹。
    喜欢这首歌是因为它朗朗上口的旋律，——没有矫揉造作与无病呻吟，故事的叙述简单但却不乏深度。

Moira Kerr-Charles Edward Stuart

He came across the water
From France to this green Isle
And here in Scotlan they all loved his eloquence and style
He soon became so popular
This confident young man
And he gained this staunch allegiance of many Scottish clans

Charles Edward Stuard was his name
To gain a crowned Scotland was his aim
He strongly challenged England's monarchy
And changed the course of Scotland's history

He brought the clans together
As no other of that day
And the Jacobite rebellion was truly on the way
Though they bravely fought for the freedom the kings might not give
And Scotland was hopelessly dying upon the Culloden's field

Charles Edward Stuard was his name
To gain a crowned Scotland was his aim
He strongly challenged England's monarchy
And changed the course of Scotland's history

In hot pursuit, the red coats
Gave chase when Charlie fled
And the price of 30,000 pounds was placed upon his head
But unbetrayed he let the English troops a merry dance
And then in September (17)46 he sailed back home to France

Charles Edward Stuard was his name
To gain a crowned Scotland was his aim
He strongly challenged England's monarchy
And changed the course of Scotland's history

Then came the bans no clan chiefs
No bagpipes to be played
No Gaelic to be spoken
Not another kilt displayed
Yes the battle of Culloden was Prince Charles the Great defeat
And made the disintegration of the clans almost complete

Charles Edward Stuard was his name
To gain a crowned Scotland was his aim
He strongly challenged England's monarchy
And changed the course of Scotland's history

Charles Edward Stuard was his name
To gain a crowned Scotland was his aim
He strongly challenged England's monarchy
And changed the course of Scotland's history

He changed the course of Scotland's history
He changed the course of Scotland's history

这是很久以前在 music heaven上听到，介绍说是——BBC当家花旦。{:soso_e127:}也不知道是不是我记错了。

英國UK金榜年度百大金曲之一，MOIRA為紀念英軍1692年在蘇格蘭GLENCOE地區大屠殺的超級經典，刻畫凱爾特人心中永遠的痛
這首歌曲是莫拉可兒為一部描述這段歷史的影片「Eagles Eyes View」所做的配樂.莫拉在專輯的內頁中寫到她在蘇格蘭Glencoe散步時,看到了MacIain的墓,這段歌詞突然涌上心頭,於是她就寫下了這首歌,也寫下了凱爾特人心中永遠的痛.
1692年英軍在蘇格蘭北部地區Glencoe進行大屠殺，當時涌現出許多民族英雄。這首歌就是為紀念當年的事件而創作的。
