Scarborough Fair(斯卡堡集市,也译作“斯卡波罗集市”“斯卡布罗集市”),是一首旋律优美的经典英文歌曲,曾作为第40届奥斯卡获奖影片《毕业生》(The Graduate)的插曲,曲调凄美婉转,给人以心灵深处的触动。《Scarborough Fair》原是一首古老的英国民歌,其起源可一直追溯到中世纪,原唱歌手为保罗·西蒙(Paul Simon)和加芬克尔(Art Garfunkel)。莎拉·布莱曼(Sarah Brightman)翻唱过该歌曲,收录于2000年专辑《La Luna》。
斯卡布罗集市(Scarborough Fair)作为20世纪60年代最受美国大学生欢迎的电影《毕业生》的插曲,曾被那一代人特别是那一代青年学生视为至爱。在学生运动风起云涌和嬉皮士运动的叛逆潮流中,这首歌为什么会引得那一代人对它情有独钟?或许,一方面是对青春时代的清纯和爱情的缅怀,一方面是在用梦幻般的曲调和轻吟低诉的唱词,在编织着有关战争的童话。西蒙与加蓬凯尔用他们民歌式的朴素的歌词和动人心扉的吉他,再配以天衣无缝的和声,使这首充满情感梦幻般的歌曲触动着每个人的心弦。
