一首歌好不好聽,編曲和演唱者是否能真正挖掘出這首歌的潛力,佔很重要的因素。桃麗芭頓(Dolly Parton)的鄉村冠軍曲”I will always love you”經惠妮休斯頓的翻唱,搖身一變成為名聞全球的抒情經典。
GLENN MEDEIROS葛倫麥德羅斯的”Nothing's gonna change my love for you”也是相同的情形,原唱兼作曲者的喬治班森(George Benson)是位黑人爵士樂手,若非經由葛倫麥德羅斯的翻唱,這首歌不會受到廣大樂迷的迴響。喬治班森還有一首著名的作品”Greatest love of all”,被惠妮休斯頓慧眼看上,而介紹給全世界的歌迷,否則這首好歌將只能躲在喬治班森的專輯中,乏人問津。
GLENN MEDEIROS 葛倫麥德羅斯,一位來自夏威夷的偶像歌星,演唱這首歌時才十六歲,之後因為沒有較出色的暢銷曲,很快就淡出歌壇。
If I had to live my life without you near me 如果我必須沒有你而活下去
The days would all be empty 日子將會是一片空白
The nights would seem so long 夜晚將顯得漫長
And with you I see forever oh so clearly 有了你,我清楚的看見永恆
I might have been in love before 從前我也曾談過戀愛
But it never felt this strong 但不曾感覺這麼的強烈
Our dreams are young and we both know 我倆的夢未央,而且我們都明白
They'll take us where we want to go 它們將帶我倆到心嚮往的地方
Hold me now, touch me now 擁抱我,觸摸我
I don't want to live without you 我不想沒有你而活下去
*Nothing's gonna change my love for you 對你的愛永遠不變
You ought to know by now how much I love you 現在,你應該明白我有多麼愛你
One thing you can be sure of 有一件事你可以確定
I'll never ask for more than your love 我絕不要求你更多的愛
Nothing's gonna change my love for you 對你的愛永遠不變
You ought to know by now how much I love you 如今,你應該明白我有多麼愛你
You'll only change my whole life through 你改變了我的一生
Nothing's gonna change my love for you 我對你的愛永不渝
If the road ahead is not so easy 如果前方的路不好走
Our love will lead a way for us 愛將為我們指引一條出路
Like a guiding star 像一顆導航的星星
I'll be there for you if you should need me 若你需要我,我就在你身旁
You don't have to change a thing 你不必改變什麼
I love you just the way you are 我就是愛你現在的樣子
So come with me and share the view 跟我來,分享這個景緻
I'll help you see forever too 我將幫你也看見永恆
Hold me now, touch me now 擁抱我,觸摸我
I don't want to live without you 我不想沒有你而活下去
