利佳玶 September In The Rain
Steffannie Lee & Overtone Jazz Union

台灣歌壇的秘密  最資深的爵士女伶
身形嬌小卻蘊藏著無比爆發力 歌聲熱情奔放中交襯著優雅細緻
唱片新人利佳玶Steffannie在演唱舞台長久磨練下的首張專輯。

一流爵士樂手  吉他手廖季文  鋼琴手彭郁文  低音大提琴手Martijn Vanbuel 衛馬丁  鼓手藤井俊充 Toshi Fujii  薩克斯風手楊曉恩  精彩演出

生命的淬煉、美麗的樂符、浪漫堆積的情懷，願與你分享女人對情愛不悔的期待與渴望。

音樂太美妙，有幸作為一個依然動人、悠遊舞台演唱爵士樂的歌者。我有持續不減唱不完的熱情。
學生時代愛摸吉他，狂戀披頭四、比吉斯。至今，舊時的旋律依舊不時牽絆著我，讓我眼眶泛紅。數十年的演唱生涯，唱出美的旋律，已成為生活裡重要的元素。從渾身是膽、熱情澎湃，漸漸知道爵士樂與自己密不可分。生命的淬煉、美麗的樂符、浪漫堆積的情懷，原來爵士樂也可以是生活的一種態度。
感謝唱片公司完全不設限，讓我在選歌上不必顧及市場的商業性，把多年的夢想，集結成多首經典爵士樂曲的專輯。專輯裡，收錄個人超喜愛的September in the rain。相信各位專業聽友，一定不會失望，願與你分享女人對情愛不悔的期待與渴望。

01 Have I Told You Lately  Harold Rome
ISRC TWE951003901

Have I told you lately that I love you?
Have I told you there’s no one else above you?
Fill my heart with gladness, take away all my sadness,
Ease my troubles, that’s what you do.

For the morning sun in all it’s glory,
Meets the day with hope and comfort too,
You fill my life with laughter, somehow you make it better,
Ease my troubles, that’s what you do.

There’s a love less defined,
And its yours and its mine,
Like the sun.
And at the end of the day,
We should give thanks and pray,
To the one, to the one.

Have I told you lately that I love you?
Have I told you there’s no one else above you?
Fill my heart with gladness, take away all my sadness,
Ease my troubles, that’s what you do.
There’s a love less defined,
And its yours and its mine,
Like the sun.
And at the end of the day,
We should give thanks and pray,
To the one, to the one.

Have I told you lately that I love you?
Have I told you there’s no one else above you?
Fill my heart with gladness, take away all my sadness,
Ease my troubles, that’s what you do.

Take away all my sadness, fill my life with gladness,
Ease my troubles, that’s what you do.

Take away all my sadness, fill my life with gladness,
Ease my troubles, that’s what you do.

02 September In The Rain  Al Dubin / Harry Warren
ISRC TWE951003902

The leaves of brown came tumbling down
Remember in September in the rain
The Sun went out just like a dying ember
That September in the rain

To every word of love I heard you whisper
The raindrops seemed to play our sweet refrain
Though spring is here to me it’s still September
That September in the rain

To every word of love I heard you whisper
The raindrops seemed to play our sweet refrain
Though spring is here to me it is still September
That September in the rain

That September that brought the pain
That September in the rain

03 Let’s Face the Music And Dance  Irving Berlin
ISRC TWE951003903

There may be trouble ahead
But while there’s moonlight and music
And love and romance
Let’s face the music and dance

Before the fiddlers have fled
Before they ask us to pay the bill
And while we still
Have the chance
Let’s face the music and dance

Soon, We’ll be without the moon
Humming a different tune - and then

There may be teardrops to shed
So while there’s moonlight and music
And love and romance
Let’s face the music and dance, dance
(Let’s face the music and dance - let’s hear that music)

04 East Of The Sun  Brooks Bowman
ISRC TWE951003904

East of the sun and west of the moon,
We’ll build a dream house of love
Near to the sun in a day, near to the moon at night,
We’ll live in a lovely way dear
Living our love in memory
Just you and I, forever and a day,
Love will not die, we’ll keep it that way,
Up among the stars we’ll find
A harmony of life, too lovely tune
East of the sun and west of the moon, dear,
East of the sun and west of the moon.??
(Just you and I we’ll build a dream house so lovely)?

05 Maybe You’ll Be There  Sammy Gallop / Rube Bloom
ISRC TWE951003905

Each time I see a crowd of people
Just like a fool I stop and stare
It’s really not the proper thing to do
But maybe you’ll be there
I go out walking after midnight
Along the lonely thoroughfare
It’s not the time or place
To look for you
But maybe you’ll be there
You said your arms would always hold me
You said you lips were mine alone to kiss
Now after all those things you told me
How could it end like this
Someday if all my prayers are answered
I’ll hear a footstep on the stair
With anxious heart
I’ll hurry to the door
And maybe you’ll
Be there

06 Somebody Loves Me  B.G. Desylva & Ballard Macdonald / George Gershwin
ISRC TWE951003906

Somebody loves me
I wonder who
I wonder who she can be;

Somebody loves me
I wish I knew,
Who can she be worries me

For evry girl who passes me
I shout, hey! maybe,
You were meant to be my loving baby;

Somebody loves me
I wonder who,
Maybe its you.

07 You’d Be So Nice To Come Home To  Cole Porter
ISRC TWE951003907

You’d be so nice to come home to
You’d be so nice by the fire

While that breeze on night sings a lullaby
You’d be all my heart could desire
Under stars chilled by the winter
Under an August moon shining above

You’d be so nice you’d be paradise
To come home to and love

08 That’s All  Bob Haymes & Alan Brandt
ISRC TWE951003908

I can only give you love that lasts forever,
And a promise to be near each time you call.
And the only heart I own
For you and you alone
That’s all,
That’s all...

I can only give you country walks in springtime
And a hand to hold when leaves begin to fall;
And a love whose burning light
Will warm the winter’s night
That’s all,
That’s all.

There are those I am sure who have told you,
They would give you the world for a toy.
All I have are these arms to enfold you,
And a love even time can’t destroy.

If you’re wondering what I’m asking in return, dear,
You’ll be glad to know that my demands are small.
Say it’s me that you’ll adore,
For now and evermore
That’s all,
That’s all.

09 Fall’in In Love With Love  Lorenz Hart / Richard Rodgers
ISRC TWE951003909

Falling in love with love
Is falling for make-believe
Falling in love with love
Is playing the fool

Caring too much is such a juvenile fancy
Learning to trust is just
For children in school
I fell in love with love one night
When the moon was full
I was unwise with eyes
Unable to see
Falling in love with love
With love ever after
But love fell out with me

I fell in love with love one night
When the moon was full
I was unwise with eyes
Unable to see

I fell in love with love
With love everlasting
But love fell out with me

10 My Foolish Heart  Ned Washington / Victor Young
ISRC TWE951003910

The night is like a lovely tune
Beware my foolish heart
How white the ever constant moon
Take care my foolish heart

There’s a line between love and fascination
That’s hard to see on an evening such as this
For they both give the very same sensation
When you’re lost in the magic of a kiss
Her lips are much too close to mine
Beware my foolish heart

But should our eager lips combine
Then let the fire start
For this time it isn’t fascination
Or a dream that will fade and fall apart
It’s love, this time it’s love
My foolish heart

For this time it isn’t fascination
Or a dream that will fade and fall apart
It’s love, this time it’s love
My foolish heart

11 How Deep Is The Ocean  Irving Berlin
ISRC TWE951003911

How much do I love you?
I’ll tell you no lie
How deep is the ocean?
How high is the sky?
How many times in a day
Do I think of you?
How many roses are
Sprinkled with dew?

How far would I travel
Just to be where you are?
How far is the journey
From here to a star?
And if I ever lost you
How much would I cry?
How deep is the ocean?
How high is the sky?

12 Every Time We Say Goodbye  Cole Porter
ISRC TWE951003912

 Every time we say goodbye
I die a little
Everytime we say goodbye
I wonder why a little
Why the Gods above me
Who must be in the know
Think so little of me
They allow you to go

When you’re near
There’s such an air
Of spring about it
I can hear a lark somewhere
Begin to sing about it
There’s no love song finer
But how strange the change
From major to minor
Everytime we say goodbye

There’s no love song finer
But how strange the change
From major to minor
Everytime we say goodbye

13 Sleepin’ Bee  Harold Arlen & Truman Capote
ISRC TWE951003913

When a bee lies sleepin’
In the palm of your hand
You’re bewitched and deep in love’s
Long looked after love
Where you’ll see a sun up sky
With the morning dew
And where the days go laughin’ by
As love comes a-calling on you
Sleep on bee don’t waken
Can’t believe what just passed
He’s mine for the takin’
I am happy at last...
Maybe I dreams, but he seems
Sweet golden as a crown
A sleepin’ bee done told me
I will walk with my feet off the ground
When my one true love?I has found
A sleepin’ bee just told me
I will walk with my feet off the ground
When my one true love?I has found...

好的作品不單要有好的原創，編曲的工夫是不可輕忽的。除了考慮和聲的動向，更要顧及樂器的搭配及風格的掌握。。

寫寫停停的花了三個月，我常去公園、山上或走或爬或散步，也常伏案沈思，這次編曲就是這樣點點滴滴的積累，非常用心的思考著每一個細節而完成。

在追求音樂的道路上，Steffannie是我經常合作的歌手，對於她的唱腔與音樂上的感性可說是相當的了解。經由她的優雅風格與獨特的嗓音來詮釋，我相信這張專輯將會給大家非常愉悅的感動。
