Kodachrome

1973年的歌,歌詞裡的Nikon camera是甚麼?F2、Nikkormat、S系?AI還沒出現呢。其實我拍Superia已經很開心了,不過Kodachrome已經和K14一起離我們而去了。


When I think back on all the crap I learned in high school
It's a wonder I can think at all
And though my lack of education hasn't hurt me none
I can read the writing on the wall

Kodachrome
They give us those nice bright colors
They give us the greens of summers
Makes you think all the world's a sunny day, oh yeah
I got a Nikon camera
I love to take a photograph
So mama don't take my Kodachrome away

If you took all the girls I knew when I was single
And brought them all together for one night
I know they'd never match my sweet imagination
Everything looks worse in black and white

Kodachrome
They give us those nice bright colors
They give us the greens of summers
Makes you think all the world's a sunny day, oh yeah
I got a Nikon camera
I love to take a photograph
So mama don't take my Kodachrome away

Mama don't take my Kodachrome away
Mama don't take my Kodachrome away
Mama don't take my Kodachrome away

唱歌的人是Paul Simon。甚麼?Simon and Garfunkel那個Paul Simon?是的,就是那個Sound of Silence與Bridge over Trouble Waters的傢伙。鏡頭也有二線性,歌手也可以有多重風格罷。
聽著聽著,傷感就往上浮。想到Minolta、Practica、Contax、Agfa、Bronica、Topcon.....
