We still have some problems
about Mr. Didier's reply, so I send an E-mail again to Mr. Didiert
on August 20,2007. Soon I received Mr Didier's reply again. Below
is their summary: |
001-The
writer's E-mail to Mr.Didier
on August 20, 2007

Dear friend Didier, I am very happy
to receive your reply about the "Chi Mai",
I think you have spent much time and painstaking care
for this thing. Thanks very much for your kindness
assist for me.......
It is very sorry I still need your
some help:
1. I don't know if you are willing to put your any
photo in this page for make Chinese friend understand
you more? If you are willing, please send the photo
for me. If it is not proper you think, please don't
mind it
2. I don't know that there any similar melody between
"come maddalena" and "Chi Mai"
. They seems difference (See above web page's reference
materials 002-001 and 002-002), so I don't know your
word in your reply :"On the B-side of the 45"
was the piece soon to be called "Come Maddalena",
but here with the title "Goldrausch" "......
3. I hope I can find the "Goldrausch (Gold Rush)"
and "Terra Magica(004-005)" by way of the
Google and other so that I can study them. I have
found a few images or links and put them in the page
(see 004,005 red color frame). But I am not affirm
which is right or all are not. I hope you will tell
me some URL or other info for I can understand them.
4. I don't know if you have a few "Chi Mai"
lyric, English is better. If you have, I hope I can
get it
.......

Hello
Han,
It was my pleasure to provide you that information. Sorry
if some points were not very clear. Actually, the piece called
"Terra Magica" is exactly the piece "Chi mai"
which appears on the Maddalena score. And the piece called
"Goldrausch" is exactly the piece "Come Maddalena"
which appears on the Maddalena score (shortened to last less
than 5 minutes, like it was also on many compilations). So
the only mystery is that they were published in 1970, and
with a different title. But they are not different music:
they are the same pieces as we know from the Maddalena score.
And there is indeed no similar melody between "Chi mai"
and "Come Maddalena". I hope that this answers your
questions.
You made your page very attractive with all those additional
details. Well done. I didn't know that the BBC film about
D.L.George was actually a series - I thought it was a documentary.
I have the lyrics of the A.Stewart song:
Come, come into my arms
Lay down here beside me
Gently guide me
The pain and pleasure
I'm scared to you
A man by design
Perfect and divine
Lover lets cover each other with gladness
Come come and discover each other with wonder
Ah, lover let's cover each other with love
Oh sweet passion
Cover me
Take me like the first time
Is a last time
Oh gently open wide
Oh my heart is on fire
Burining with desire
Lover lets cover each other with gladness
Come come and discover each other with wonder
Ah, lover let's cover each other with love
Love, love, love
Mmmm
And of Dulce Pontes' song:
The house where I was born
Still stands
For who I am
Every stone laid
Is a bridge made to my past
The house where I grew tall
Towers
Over me
Shadows bring everything back in soft light
I wouldn't change yesterday not in my life
And so, I live in a house of no regrets
There are many rooms inside my head
Corridors that wind, through time, never end
They are journeys made to be
Every house is part of me
The house where I found love
Lingers
Sends me shivers
Like the first time
Stairways I climb to the heights
The house where I grew old
Will be
Free of ghosts
From what I've done I won't run come the dark night
I wouldn't change yesterday not in my life
The years show, I live in a house of no regrets
Attached is a picture of me which you can
use.

For the sake of make further
clear the source of the "CHI" and "MAI", I look
up the words in two "Italiano-Cinese dizionrio". So it is
easy to find them. Below is its images for reference: |

the title "Terra Magica" "Goldrausch" (1970) which
is he once introduced (See previous
page)to me again, it made us to understand the history more clearly.
Thanks again Mr. Didier, below is the image |
