"One Particular Harbour"〔The song title is spelled with the British spelling ''harbour'' even in U.S. releases.〕 is a song performed by American popular music singer-songwriter Jimmy Buffett. It was written by Jimmy Buffett and Hawaiian-born Tahitian musician Bobby Holcomb and released as a single (b/w "Distantly In Love") on MCA 52298 in October 1983. It was first released on his 1983 album ''One Particular Harbour'' and reached #22 on the ''Billboard'' Adult Contemporary chart. The song begins with lyrics in Tahitian: The translation given is: It concludes with the same verse plus: This is translated as: Buffett has said in radio interviews about the song that he wrote it while travelling the islands and that he was moved to write it one afternoon during his journeys, as he sat on the balcony of his hotel room watching the local children (memorialized in the lyric "Where children play on the shore each day"). "One Particular Harbour" is one of Buffett's more popular songs with fans, and is played at almost all of his concerts. Recorded live versions of the song appear on ''Feeding Frenzy'', ''Buffett Live: Tuesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays'', and the video ''Live by the Bay''. Two recordings are included on the 2007 release ''Live in Anguilla'': once in full concert mode at the Dune Preserve beach bar and another the day before in an impromptu "unplugged" concert on the beach. It is often performed with extensive steel drum played by the Coral Reefer Band's pannist Robert Greenidge. ==Chart performance== 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「One Particular Harbour (song)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
