''Carry'' is a song by American recording artist Tori Amos, released as the main promotional single from the album ''Night of Hunters'' (2011). The track was released Aug 18, 2011 as a digital download only with an accompanying video clip. ==Background and release== Like the rest of the tracks on the album, ''Carry'' builds upon a classical composition, with musical variations, arrangement and added lyrics by Amos. ''Carry'' is a variation on ''La fille aux cheveux de lin'' (Girl with the Flaxen Hair), originally released in 1909 by French composer Claude Debussy.〔http://www.songfacts.com/detail.php?id=24152〕 In addition to piano by Amos, the track features instrumentation by the Apollon Musagète Quartet. ''Carry'' is the last track of the album and the final piece in the song cycle and narrative story that spans the entire album. After the tumultuous shattering of the protagonist's relationship to her lover early in the album, and the emotional processing and understanding that subsequently follows, ''Carry'' describes the protagonist having despite it all found an eternal place in her heart for her lover. The lyrics are about coming to terms with the fact that people can disappear from your life without being forgotten, and that they can still remain a part of you. In a track-by-track introduction of "Night of Hunters" for Amazon.com, Amos writes: "With the dawn comes ''Carry'', and the sentiment: you will not ever be forgotten by me, in the procession of the mighty stars your name is sung and tattooed now on my heart, here I will carry, carry, carry you forever.".〔http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B005182374〕 The song was performed live regularly during the artist's Night of Hunters tour in support of the album. A instrumental version of ''Carry'' appears on Sin Palabras", the instrumental companion album to "Night of Hunters", released in December 2011.〔http://www.deutschegrammophon.com/en/cat/4790145〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Carry (song)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
