Living in Los Angeles.: Happy New Year!

Jazz Standard

「CARAVAN」 (1935)

Music by Duke Ellington
Lyrics by Irving Mills

（歌い出し）
Night and stars above that shine so bright
The mystery of their fading light
That shines upon our caravan

Sleep upon my shoulder as we creep
Across the sand so I may keep
The memory of our caravan

This is so exiting
You are so inviting
Resting in my arms
As I thirill to the magic charms

サンバやルンバ、タンゴなどの南米のリズムと、東洋の民族音楽が合わさったような、とってもエキゾチックなナンバー。
