All day, all night, Marianne
Down by the seaside siftin' sand
Even little children love Marianne
Down by the seaside siftin' sand.
Marianne, Oh, Marianne
Oh, won't you marry me?
We can have a bamboo hut
With brandy in the tea
Leave your fat old mama home
She never will say yes
If your mama don't know now
She can guess (it's in the mail now!)
All day, all night, Marianne
Down by the seaside siftin' sand
Even little children love Marianne
Down by the seaside siftin' sand.
When she walks along the shore
People pause to greet
White birds fly around her
Little fish come to her feet
In her heart is love
But I'm the only mortal man
Who's allowed to kiss
My Marianne (Everybody!)
All day, all night, Marianne
Down by the seaside siftin' sand
Even little children love Marianne
Down by the seaside siftin' sand.
And when we marry, we will have
A time you never saw
I will be so happy
I will kiss my mother-in-law (Phooey!)
Children by the dozen
In and out the bamboo hut
One for every palm tree
And cocunut (Don't rush me!)
All day, all night, Marianne
Down by the seaside siftin' sand
Even little children love Marianne
Down by the seaside siftin' sand.
Down by the seaside siftin' sand...
The lyrics MARIANNE of THE BROTHERS FOUR is also present in the album Rally round / roamin' with the brothers four (1960)
The Brothers Four sono un gruppo folk americano formatosi nel 1957 a Seattle, Washington. Bob Flick, John Paine, Mike Kirkland e Dick Foley si sono incontrati all'Università di Washington, dove erano membri della fraternità Phi Gamma Delta nel 1956 (da cui il soprannome "Brothers"). Le loro prime performance professionali furono il risultato di uno scherzo giocato loro nel 1958 da una fraternità rivale, che aveva organizzato qualcuno per telefonare a loro, fingendo di essere del Colony Club di Seattle, e invitarli ad andare al club per un'audizione. Anche se non erano previsti all'interno del club, furono comunque lasciati cantare alcune canzoni e in seguito assunti. Flick ricorda di essere stato pagato "per lo più con la birra". Il gruppo ha raggiunto il successo nazionale negli anni '60 con brani come "Greenfields", "The Sound of Silence" e "Try to Remember". Sono noti per le loro armonie vocali e per l'interpretazione di canzoni folk tradizionali e originali.

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
