Listening to Songs

听歌

(艾玛和杰西卡正在听歌。)

艾玛:杰西卡,听这首歌的歌词。

杰西卡:这首歌有什么特别?

艾玛:这是现在在纽约很受欢迎的一出歌舞剧里的插曲。你喜欢吗?

杰西卡:不怎么喜欢。我觉得情感色彩太浓了。

艾玛:那就是这首歌这么受欢迎的原因。这首歌是芭芭拉·马丁录制的。我听说这部剧第一天晚上首演时,她登台唱了这首歌,相当轰动。

杰西卡:恐怕我对百老汇歌舞剧知道得相当有限。相比之下,我了解爵士音乐更多一点。

艾玛:那你需要入门了。学校剧社要演一出歌舞剧。我们一起去看,怎么样?

杰西卡:我有更好的主意。我们去听爵士音乐会,由我来教教你爵士乐吧。
