A Time for Us

A Time for Us (wiki)
The film's "Romantic theme", written by Nino Rota, is widely recognized in the UK because of its use by the disc jockey Simon Bates in his "Our Tune" feature. There have been several different versions of the song released in the U.S., the most successful by Henry Mancini, whose instrumuntal rendition of the theme became a number one success in the United States during June 1969. There were two different sets of English lyrics to the song. The film's version is called "What Is a Youth", with lyrics by Eugene Walter. An alternate version, called "A Time for Us", featured lyrics penned by Larry Kusik and Eddie Snyder. A third version is called "Ai Giochi Addio" with lyrics by Elsa Morante, and has been performed by opera singers such as Luciano Pavarotti and Natasha Marsh. Josh Groban performed another version titled "Un Giorno Per Noi", an Italian version of "A Time For Us".!

Theme from Our Tune (Simon Bates - Our Tune)

Back in the 1980's Radio 1 had a morning DJ called Simon Bates, who, every morning in the week, would read out a letter from a listener, sometimes happy and sometimes sad, and after would play that listeners "our tune" associated with the story. For some of us, like myself, this was compelling radio, and as a lorry driver at the time, would often pull over to listen, and very often, after would have a tear in my eye! Enjoy the basic movie I created to share this lovely theme from that show with you.

中間跳過~

反正結論就是找 Henry Mancini 、 Andy Williams 與 Johnny Mathis 這三人的版本。
Popular Old English Songs 這篇裡頭有許多歌都跟 Andy Williams 有關係。

那首 Can't Take My Eyes off You , Andy Williams 也有唱。
