今天请教了一位老朋友如何把油管视频转换成笔记好发微信朋友圈。在油管上找了几首我喜欢的歌，顺手也发此坛。
Bertie Higgins 是我喜欢的歌手。在网上找了相关的介绍：
“这首歌的作者贝蒂•希金斯（Bertie Higgins）是德国著名大诗人歌德（Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe）的后裔。他生长于佛罗里达州，体内却有着德国、葡萄牙和爱尔兰等多种血统。从创作上来看，这位歌手似乎的确从他的诗人先祖那里继承了一些才华。《卡萨布兰卡》这首歌的文词出众，曲风怀旧缠绵，令人不禁追忆起似水年华以及那些失落的爱情片断来。关于它的创作，还有希金斯本人亲身的体会在里面。当时他和他的情人Beverly分手已经近两年，然而希金斯本人却未能对旧日的女孩忘情。当初他们还在一起的时候，Beverly会开玩笑地说：“当我厌倦你的时候，我就会离开你。”希金斯则回答说：“当你离开我的时候，我就会写出一首成功的歌曲了”。
果然，在没有Beverly的日子里，希金斯因为痛苦和思念而引发的灵感如泉水般不断涌出，创作了大量的关于失恋的情歌。终于在1981年的某一天，他登上了亚特兰大Beverly所居住的那所公寓，敲开了门，问他昔日的女友：“你有收音机或者Hi-Fi没有？”Beverly说有，于是希金斯让她把频道调到某个频率，不久里面就传来了优美的歌声，那就是希金斯的成名曲Key Largo（拉戈暗礁）。希金斯对她说：“这是我为你写的，回到我身边吧”（见于Pause and Play 1994年对Higgins一家的采访）。
Casablanca也是在同样的背景下创作的。这首单曲在1982年紧随着Key Largo和Just Another Day in Paradise出版，随即就引起了轰动。希金斯那忧伤而又富有磁性的嗓音使得这首歌曲显得格外醉人，同时仿佛又带着许许多多的无奈和伤感，飘零和沧桑。与老电影的联系，更在它里面加进了怀旧和追忆的成分，使得其中的内涵大大丰富起来。唱片获得了巨大的成功，发行量突破双白金（200万张），而该歌曲也成了当年太平洋区域的年度最佳歌曲。随后希金斯又出版了另一张单曲Pirates and Poets。也许真的是他的才华和真情感动了对方，Beverly最终回到了他的身边：两人于1983年结婚，并快乐生活至今。”
“Casablanca 这首歌问世以来，以其独特无双的魅力征服了无数听众。或许是因为那部电影的名声太盛，人们容易误解这就是电影的主题曲或者插曲。其实Casablanca 写作时期晚于电影将近40年，与它没有太大的关系，倒是曾作为另一部并不很知名的爱情片的插曲放映过。但是在今天，歌曲Casablanca也已经成为了经典的老歌了，在世界各地，人们对它的旋律耳熟能详。已经很难说，究竟是电影为歌曲带来了声名，还是正好相反。或许，这两部不朽的作品真是有一种前生的缘分，看来它们在未来也注定要紧紧联系在一起，彼此都为对方增添一份耀目的光彩。” （摘自网络）
歌词：
Wrapped around each other
Trying so hard to stay warm
That first cold winter together
Lying in each other's arms
Watching those old movies
Falling in love so desperately
Honey, I was your hero
And you were my leading lady
We had it all
Just like Bogie and Bacall
Starring in our own late, late show
Sailing away to Key Largo
Here's lookin' at you kid
Missing all the things we did
We can find it once again, I know
Just like they did in Key Largo
Honey, can't you remember
We played all the parts
That sweet scene of surrender
When you gave me your heart
Please say you will
Play it again
Cause I love you still
Baby this can't be the end
We had it all (we had it all)
Just like Bogie and Bacall
Starring in our old late, late show
Sailing away to Key Largo
Here's lookin' at you kid (here's lookin' at you kid)
Missing all the things we did
We can find it once again, I know
Just like they did in Key Largo
We had it all (we had it all)
Just like Bogie and Bacall
歌词：
I fell in love with you watching Casablanca
Back row of the drive-in show in the flickering light
Popcorn and cokes beneath the stars became champagne and caviar
Making love on a long hot summer’s night
I thought you fell in love with me watching Casablanca
Holding hands beneath the paddle fans in Rick’s Candle-lit cafe
Hiding in the shadows from the spies, Moroccan moonlight in your eyes
Making magic at the movies in my old Chevrolet
Oh! A kiss is still a kiss in Casablanca
But a kiss is not a kiss without your sigh
Please come back to me in Casablanca
I love you more and more each day as time goes by
I guess there’re many broken hearts in Casablanca
You know I’ve never really been there, so I don’t know
I guess our love story will never be seen on the big wide silver screen
But it hurt just as bad when I had to watch you go
Oh! A kiss is still a kiss in Casablanca
But a kiss is not a kiss without your sigh
Please come back to me in Casablanca
I love you more and more each day as time goes by
