说来也惭愧,原先自己对披头士的知识也只是对那张2000年发行的精选《1》略有了解。今时再次偶遇披头士,也就碰巧查到了乐队成员保罗.麦卡特尼的生日:6月18日,今年64岁。于是我立刻就想到了写点什么来纪念一下。其实64岁生日对于普通人来说也许意义不大,但对于保罗来说却是意义非凡,因为The Beatles曾有那么一首非常可爱的歌“WHEN I`M 64”收录在被很多乐迷认为他们最成功的专辑“Sgt.Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band”中。这首歌本来保罗是很早之前就写好了,却偏偏要等到自己的父亲64岁时才发表。联想到今年保罗自己的64岁生日正巧又是父亲节,接踵而至的巧合为这首歌带来了更多温暖的色彩。
虽说当年这首歌是给老保罗的生日礼物,但内容却是关于爱情的,正是一个“执子之手,与子偕老”的温情告白……
