Better Man: 大约是96年左右，在男孩组合还没有大行其道的时候，英国的Take That乐队红极一时，而他们的成功，也使得日后的组合越来越多，印象中Boyzone就是因此出道的。然后大约是98年的时候，Take That解散，主唱Robbie Williams单飞。而这，好像也就是他的第二个高峰的开始。或许这就是所谓的破而后立吧，George Michael，Paul Simon等等，都有这样的过程。当然，Robbie要达到他们的地位，还是有很长的路要走的。Robbie Williams的这首歌，出自2000年的专辑Sing When You're Winning。如果让我在当年的歌曲中选出5首我最喜欢的，那么这首毫无疑问必是其中之一。

She's The One: 另一首来自Robbie Williams的歌曲。这首柔情款款的歌曲，配器上却很有些英式摇滚的味道，某些段落感觉上倒是有点Oasis的风格。用Napster下载：
Artist: Robbie Williams Title: the one
My Father's Eyes: 相较于Eric Clapton那首为了纪念夭折的孩子所写的，曾获得6项格来美大奖的Tears In Heaven，我认为这首《父亲的眼睛》毫不逊色。或许是前者听得太多了，所以更喜欢听后者。Eric出神入化的吉他演奏技巧在这首歌中表现的淋漓尽致，特别是那失真效果，使人觉得心跳都要被吉他声扣住了。如果你没有听说过“吉他圣手”的大名，那么听完这首歌，你大概会明白他为什么有这个称号了。

Moments: 这首歌出自西城男孩1999年的同名专辑Westlife，关于这个乐队，已经介绍过5首他们的歌曲，好像也没必要多说了。来自爱尔兰的声音，总是与众不同的。

且夫水之积也不厚，则其负大舟也无力。覆杯水于坳堂之上，则芥
为之舟。置杯焉则胶，水浅而舟大也。风之积也不厚，则其负大翼也
无力。故九万里则风斯在下矣，而后乃今培风；背负青天而莫之夭阏
者，而后乃今将图南。

歌词：
-------------------------------------
Artist: Robbie Williams
Title: Better Man
Send someone to love me
I need to rest in arms
Keep me safe from harm
In pouring rain
Give me endless summer
Lord I fear the cold
Feel I'm getting old
Before my time
As my soul heals the shame
I will grow through this pain
Lord I'm doing all I can
To be a better man
Go easy on my conscience
'Cause it's not my fault
I know I've been taught
To take the blame
Rest assured my angels
Will catch my tears
Walk me out of here
I'm in pain
As my soul heals the shame
I will grow through this pain
Lord I'm doing all I can
To be a better man
Once you've found that lover
You're homeward bound
Love is all around
Love is all around
I know some have fallen
On stony ground
But Love is all around
Send someone to love me
I need to rest in arms
Keep me safe from harm
In pouring rain
Give me endless summer
Lord I fear the cold
Feel I'm getting old
Before my time
As my soul heals the shame
I will grow through this pain
Lord I'm doin' all I can
To be a better man

She's The One
Robbie William
I was her she was me
We were one we were free
And if there's somebody calling me on
She's the one
If there's somebody calling me on
She's the one
We were young we were wrong
We were fine all along
If there's somebody calling me on
She's the one
When you get to where you wanna go
And you know the things you wanna know
You're smiling
When you said what you wanna say
And you know the way you wanna play
You'll be so high you'll be flying
Though the sea will be strong
I know we'll carry on
Cos if there's somebody calling me on
She's the one
If there's somebody calling me on
She's the one
When you get to where you wanna go
And you know the things you wanna know
You're smiling
When you said what you wanna say
And you know the way you wanna say it
You'll be so high you'll be flying
I was her she was me
We were one we were free
If there's somebody calling me on
She's the one
If there's somebody calling me on
She's the one
If there's somebody calling me on
She's the one
Yeah she's the one
If there's somebody calling me on
She's the one
She's the one
If there's somebody calling me on
She's the one

My Father's Eyes
--Eric Clapton
Sailing down behind the sun,
waiting for my prince to come.
Praying for the healing rain
to restore my soul again.
Just a toerag on the run.
How did I get here?
What have I done?
When will all my hopes arrive?
How will I know him? When I look in my father's eyes.
Then the light begins to shine
and I hear those ancient lullabys.
And as I watched this seedling grow,
feel my heart start to overflow
When will I learn the words to say?
How do I teach him?
What do we play?
If I did, I'd realize
That's when I need him,
that's when I need my father's eyes.
Were you really so far away?
Were you really so far away?
Were you really so far away?
Were you really so far away?
Then the jagged edge appears
through the distant clouds of tears.
I'm like a bridge that has washed away;
my foundations were made of clay.
As my soul slides down to die.
How could I lose him?
What did I try?
If I did, I'd recognize
He was here with me;
I'd looked into my father's eyes.
As my soul slides down to die.
How could I lose him? What did I try?
If I did, I'd recognize
He was here with me;
I'd looked into my father's eyes.

MP3: Moments
if i die tonight i d go with no regrets
if it s in your arms i know that
i was blessed
and if your eyes are the last
thing that i see
then i know the beauty heaven
holds for me
but if i make it through if i live to
see the day
if i m with you i ll know just what to say
the truth be told girl you take my my
breath away
every minute every hour every day
cause every moment we share together
is even better than the moment before
if every day was as good as today was
then i can t wait until tomorrow comes
a moment in time is all that s given
you and me
a moment in time and it s something
you should seize
so i won make the mistake of
letting go
everyday you re here i m gonna let
you know
that every moment we share together
is even better than the moment before
if every day was as good as today was
then i can t wait until tomorrow comes
each morning that i get up i love you more
than ever
so girl i ll never go away never stray
so every moment we share together
is even better than than the moment before
if every day was as good as today was
then i can t wait until tomorrow comes
so every moment we share together
is even better than than the moment before
if every day was as good as today was
then i can t wait until tomorrow comes
