在大二暑假练英语听力的时候认识了Louis Armstrong，终于知道沙哑的男性嗓音是有原型的。最近在查一些关于New Orleans的背景资料。几乎所有介绍New Orleans的文章都会提到Jazz，而提到Jazz的文章又都会提到这位土生土长在New Orleans的音乐家。他的嗓音和表情都是无法模仿的，堪称经典。我在Youtube上搜了两首他的代表作：La vie en rose不仅是一部经典电影的插曲，还在2008年一部浪漫感人的电影中《Wall-E》（机器人总动员）作为插曲，阿墨对那段scene百看不厌；另一首What a wonderful world的歌词写得很好，让人对生活和美好未来充满了憧憬和向往。

I see trees of green, red roses too,
I see them bloom, for me and you.
And I think to myself... what a wonderful world.

I see skies of blue, and clouds of white,
The bright blessed day, the dark sacred night.
And I think to myself... what a wonderful world.

The colors of the rainbow so pretty in the sky,
Also the faces of people going by.
I see friends shaking hands, say how do you do?
They're really saying, I love you.

I hear babies crying, I watch them grow,
They'll learn much more than I'll ever know.
And I think to myself... what a wonderful world.

Yes I think to myself... what a wonderful world.

曾有人问我什么是Jazz，其实我也说不上来，但是一听有小号的小资音乐就基本上知道这是Jazz了。
