Tra le varie canzoni dedicate a Bobby Fischer merita di essere ricordata<br />

“The Way We Were” (1973) di Barbra Streisand. Barbra e Robert<br />

frequentarono la stessa scuola, insieme al cantautore Neil Diamond, la<br />

Erasmus Hall High School di Flatbush Avenue, Brooklyn. La Streisand ha<br />

ricordato che Fischer lo attraeva molto (“Bobby was always alone and<br />

very peculiar. But I found him very sexy”).<br />

Con The Way We were, colonna sonora del film omonimo, Barbra<br />

Streisand ottenne l’Oscar per la miglior canzone.<br />

“The Way We Were”<br />

di: Barbra Streisand (1973)<br />

Memories, light the corners of my mind<br />

Misty watercolor memories<br />

of the way we were.<br />

Scattered pictures of the smiles we left behind<br />

smiles we gave to one another<br />

for the way we were.<br />

Can it be that it was all so simple then<br />

or has time rewritten every line?<br />

If we had the chance to do it all again<br />

tell me, Bobby... Would we? Could we?<br />

Memories, may be beautiful and yet<br />

what’s too painful to remember<br />

We simply chose to forget.<br />

So it’s the laughter we will remember<br />

whenever we remember<br />

the way we were... the way we were...<br />

Come eravamo<br />

Memorie illuminano gli angoli della mia mente.<br />

Sbiaditi ricordi di tenui colori<br />

su come eravamo.<br />

Immagini sparse dei sorrisi lasciati alle spalle<br />

sorrisi che ci siamo scambiati<br />

per come eravamo.<br />
