生日快乐歌的起源
关于“祝你生日快乐”一歌是如可产生的故事,一开始是件令人愉快的事,到后来就变了味,令人很扫兴.
事情是这样的：有姐妹俩,一个叫玛德里德?希尔,路易思维尔市肯德基实验幼儿园教师,一个叫柏蒂?希尔,该校的校长.姐妹俩一道为儿童们谱写了一首歌,歌名为“大家早上好”.玛德里德里是当赞美歌的专家,再加上好怕音乐天分,又是当地教堂的风琴师,而且她姐姐在幼儿教育方面也很有经验,“大家早上好”一歌无疑是个巨大的成功.
1893年,两姐姐发表了一部歌曲集,题名为“幼儿园的故事”.三十一年以后,在柏蒂?希尔出任歌伦比亚大学师范学院幼儿教育系系主任之后,一个名叫罗伯特?科尔曼的男士未经姐姐俩的允许,私自出版了这首歌,在这首歌后又加了一段,即大家熟悉的“祝你生日快乐”,这就构成了对姐妹俩的伤害和侮辱.科尔曼先生增加的第二段歌词使这首歌很快就十分流行.
最终,姐妹俩的第一段歌词消失了.“祝你生日快乐”这首唯一的生日歌完全取代了姐妹俩原来的歌曲“大家早上好!”.
玛德里德于1916年逝世后,柏蒂与其另一个妹妹杰西卡出面将科尔曼先生告上了法庭.在法庭上,她们证明,实际上她们拥有这首歌曲调的版权.由于这首歌曲的法定版权属于希尔姐妹家,它便被赋予了皇权,无论何时这首歌因商用目的而被唱的时候,其皇权总是会受到保护的.
