hi-de-hi 的詞源

“Call-and-response”是一種歌唱中的呼應式感嘆語，最早出現於1933年，與美國樂隊領隊 Cabell “Cab” Calloway（1907-1994）及其代表作《Minnie the Moocher》有關，該歌曲創作於1931年。

Calloway recalled in his autobiography that the song came first and the chorus was later improvised when he forgot the lyrics during a radio broadcast. ["Harlem Renaissance Lives," Oxford, 2009]

據 Calloway 在自傳中回憶，這首歌曲是先有的，而合唱部分是後來在一次廣播中他忘詞時即興創作的。[“Harlem Renaissance Lives,” Oxford, 2009]
