2、理查德•查理斯•罗杰斯(英语:Richard Charles Rodgers,1902年6月28日-1979年12月30日),是美国杰出的流行音乐及音乐剧作曲家。他与作词家奥斯卡•汉默斯坦二世一同合作一系列的音乐剧最为人所认识:包括《南太平洋》、《国王与我》、《音乐之声》、《奥克拉荷马》等,不少都是大众耳熟能详的作品,时至今日,部分音乐剧仍在世界各地的剧场上不断上演中。在汉默斯坦二世前,他又曾跟劳伦兹•哈特合作创作过另一批的音乐剧,但他们两人合作的作品,相比之下名气显然不及与汉默斯坦二世的作品。
另外,罗杰斯亦创作大量电影及电视的配乐。他一生中获得过各类奖项:包括艾美奖、格莱美奖、奥斯卡奖、东尼奖、普利策奖等,他既是首位完成演艺圈大满贯(EGOT,即先后获得前面4项殊荣)的音乐家,亦是能在现今美国最主要的音乐颁奖礼中皆曾获取奖项的音乐人(能同样获得如此殊荣的,只有作曲家兼指挥马文•哈姆利奇)。
罗杰斯1902年出生于美国纽约市皇后区的阿文诺的一个俄罗斯犹太人移民家庭,家中排行第二,父亲为医生,而母亲则来自一个营商的家庭,家境不俗。六岁起受母亲的感染,罗杰斯便开始学习钢琴,同时父亲和祖父母亦是喜欢唱歌和音乐的人,罗杰斯自少便跟随他们欣赏音乐会,并接触各类型的音乐。罗杰斯先后在第十公立学校、唐森哈利逊高中和狄怀特克林顿高中读书,求学期间,罗杰斯曾参加过一些为有经济能力的犹太学生而设的夏令营,在一次偶然的机会下,罗杰斯在其中一次的夏令营内创作了他第一首作品《营火的日子》。(维基百科)

LIVING STEREO RCA VICTOR
Lyrics:
When the sky is a bright canary yellow I forget ev’ry cloud I’ve ever seen,
So they called me a cockeyed optimist Immature and incurably green.
I have heard people rant and rave and bellow That we’re done and we might as well be dead,
But I’m only a cockeyed optimist And I can’t get it into my head. I hear the human race
Is fallin’ on its face And hasn’t very far to go, But ev’ry whippoorwill Is sellin’ me a bill,
And tellin’ me it just ain’t so. I could say life is just a bowl of Jello
And appear more intelligent and smart, But I’m stuck like a dope With a thing called hope,
And I can’t get it out of my heart! Not this heart…(ST LYRICS)
四、《Twin Soliloquies》 (Wonder How It Feels) Nellie Forbush
Emile De Becque (美) Rodgers作曲 (美)Hammerstein写词
RODGERS & HAMMERSTEIN’S LIVING STEREO RCA VICTOR
Lyrics:
Nellie: Wonder how I’d feel Livin’ on a hillside, Lookin’ on an ocean, Beautiful and still.
Emile: This is what I need, This is what I’ve longed for. Someone young and smilin’
Climbin’ up my hill!
Nellie: We are not alike. Probably I’d bore him. He’s a cultured Frenchman, I’m a little hick.
Emile: Younger man than I, Officers and doctors. Probably pursue her, She could have her pick.
Nellie: Wonder why I feel Jittery and jumpy! I’m like a school girl Waitin’ for a dance.
Emile: Can I ask her now? I’m like a school boy! What will be her answer? Do I have a chance? (e Lyrics.NeT)

Bloody Mary is the girl I love. Bloody Mary is the girl I love.
Bloody Mary is the girl I love. Now ain’t that too damn bad!
Her skin is tender as Dimaggio’s glove. Her skin is tender as Dimaggio’s glove.
Her skin is tender as Dimaggio’s glove. Now ain’t that too damn bad!
Bloody Mary’s chewin’ betel nuts. She is always chewin’ betel nuts.
Bloody Mary’s chewin’ betel nuts. And she don’t use Pepsodent! Now ain’t that too damn bad!
[Instrumental]
Bloody Mary is the girl I love. Bloody Mary is the girl I love.
Bloody Mary is the girl I love. Now ain’t that too damn bad! Now ain’t that too damn bad! (All Musicals)
