。
If you miss the train I'm on
You will know that I am gone
You can hear the whistle blow
a hundred miles
A hundred miles a hundred miles
A hundred miles a hundred miles
You can hear the whistle bow
a hundred miles
Lord I'm one lord I'm two
lord I'm three lord I'm four
Lord I'm five hundred miles
away home
Away home away home
away home away home
Lord I'm five hundred miles
away home
Not a shirt on my back
not a penny to my name
Lord I can't go back home
this away
This away this away
this away this away
Lord I can't go back home this away
If you miss the train I'm on
You will know that I am gone
You can hear the whistle blow
a hundred miles

日本smoothjazz名伶noon，每每出碟都会在jazz圈和试音圈引起一阵惊叹，而今在发过4张AL后诚意带来了精选之作。   
感觉全辑力图强调noon美妙人声表现，编曲极尽简单，几片平滑的钢琴，或有几段清浅的长笛簧管，偶尔几芥SAX轻饰一点bass，鼓点都闷闷的不敢太过鲜亮，只为众星拱月出noon珠圆玉润的声线，全辑听来质地柔和，呼吸均匀。
应是上等好茶，系出名门，闻之流涎，入口即化，熏一室馨香。正是不同于akiko之类的烟酒嗓的另一种舒适。
此外这张碟的选曲格外有心思，除了入选众多jazz名曲，还有一些民谣经典，都被noon的声音轻易的渲染出jazz的韵调；甚至夏川里美那曲历久弥新的「泪光闪闪」，重新唱来依旧感人至深
放上「500 miles 」这支由N多人物翻唱过的country music中的经典多重唱（原唱为the highwaymen，后又由peter、paul & mary，the brothers four等等传唱），现今听noon独自演绎出来，温柔似水的声音洗去原曲里远离恋人、远离家乡的沉郁忧伤，淡薄了漂泊的伤痛，仿佛一个静静的回忆。
不要怀疑你听见的却是jazz，尽管放上的两支曲子是民谣翻唱，皆因为想到之前与sadeyes的争辩；
“爵士与乡村情绪相通”，应该是这般，至少在noon的声音里，jazz与country，毫无间隙。
