Hero: 以hero这个词为名的歌曲，流传最广的当是歌坛天后Mariah Carey的那首获得格莱
美奖的励志歌曲，但从此以后，提到这个歌名的时候，人们首先想到的没准就是Enrique
Iglesias的这首为911事件而演唱的悼亡之作了。这首歌中夹杂了大量有关911的对白，
既有总统讲话，也有记者报道，难得却又不显突兀，和音乐配合无间，融为一体，更增歌曲
怆痛之情。乐府诗集言道，悲歌可以当泣，形容此曲，真是贴切不过。虎父无犬子，胡里奥
得子如此，可算是后继有人了。

Forever Young: 曾经介绍过Rod Stewart演唱的一首Forever Young，这里是Alphaville
的一首同名歌曲，不过除歌名之外，这两首歌也没有什么相似之处，从歌曲的韵味到歌手的
风格，都是大大不同。总体来说，这首歌旋律优美，激情澎湃，是典型的80年代流行歌曲
味道，而我则更加欣赏Rod Stewart含蓄的演唱风格和别具韵味的苏格兰曲风。红颜弹指老，
刹那芳华，有颗年轻的心也就不错了。古人说老而不死则妖（哪位古人？这个，俺也不知道
了），倘若像金庸小说中天山童姥那般返老还童，就更是骇人听闻，迹近精怪了。

Luka: 民谣女歌手Suzanne Vega一向以叙事诗般的歌词，神秘优美的曲风和沉静冷漠的演
唱风格而著称，很久前介绍过她的名曲Tom's Diner，如果你听过那首歌，大概就很难把她
忘掉了。这首Luka，相比而言节奏明快些，风格也比较开朗，表现的正是一个随心所欲，
不受约束的新派女性形象。

Nothing Compares To You: 这首歌原是Prince为Sinead O'Connor所写的歌曲，那个版本
曾经介绍过，这里是他自己演唱的版本。此君甚是不把Michael Jackson放在眼里，一向说
音乐界只有王子，没有国王（Jackson号称是King Of Pop）。如今Jackson虽然在排行榜上
还挺风光，但是已现疲老之态，新专辑不见有什么突破，而Prince更是已经宣布不再做音
乐，在歌坛算是销声匿迹了。放眼如今的歌坛，无数新面孔此起彼伏的在排行榜上各领风骚
数十天，当真是长江后浪推前浪，前浪死在沙滩上。

细说往事：南方二重唱经典作品，如今的歌坛太浮躁，电子乐，R&B，只要沾上就算是新潮
了。而我还是喜欢这样淡淡的人，淡淡的歌。“白云翩翩，心事一面一幕飘过你的窗前，寂
寞的窗，请开启我被岁月紧锁的思念”。

Hero
--Enrique Iglesias
(Whispered) Let me be your hero
Would you dance if I asked you to dance?
Would you run and never look back
Would you cry if you saw me crying
Would you save my soul tonight?
Would you tremble if I touched your lips?
Would you laugh oh please tell me these
Now would you die for the one you love?
Hold me in your arms tonight?
(Chorus)
I can be you hero baby
I can kiss away the pain
I will stand by you forever
You can take my breath away
Would you swear that you'll always be mine?
Would you lie would you run away
Am I in too deep?
Have I lost my mind?
I don't care you're here tonight
Chorus
I just want to hold you (2x)
Am I in too deep?
Have I lost my mind?
Well I don't care you're here tonight
Chorus (2x)
You can take my breath my breath away
I can be your hero
---------------------------------------------------
Forever Young
--Alphaville
let's dance in style, lets dance for a while
heaven can wait we're only watching the skies
hoping for the best but expecting the worst
are you going to drop the bomb or not?
let us die young or let us live forever
we don't have the power but we never say never
sitting in a sandpit, life is a short trip
the music's for the sad men
can you imagine when this race is won
turn our golden faces into the sun
praising our leaders we're getting in tune
the music's played by the madmen
forever young, i want to be forever young
do you really want to live forever, forever and ever
some are like water, some are like the heat
some are a melody and some are the beat
sooner or later they all will be gone
why don't they stay young
it's so hard to get old without a cause
i don't want to perish like a fading horse
youth is like diamonds in the sun
and diamonds are forever
so many adventures couldn't happen today
so many songs we forgot to play
so many dreams are swinging out of the blue
we let them come true

Nothing Compares 2 U
Sinead O'Connor
Words & Music by Prince
It's been seven hours and fifteen days
Since u took your love away
I go out every night and sleep all day
Since u took your love away
Since u been gone I can do whatever I want
I can see whomever I choose
I can eat my dinner if a fancy restaurant
But nothing
I said nothing can take away these blues
'Cos nopthing compares
Nothing compares 2 U
It's been so lonely without u here
Like a bird without a song
Nothing can stop these lonely tears from falling
Tell me baby where did I go wrong
I could put my arms around every boy I see
But they'd only remind me of you
I went to the doctor guess what he told me
Guess what he told me
He said girl u better have fun no matter what u do
but he's a fool
'Cos nothing compares 2 U
All the flowers that u planted mama
In the back yard
All died when u went away
I knew that living with u baby was sometimes hard
But I'm willing to give it another try
'Cos nothing compares
Nothing compares 2 U

细说往事
--南方二重唱
蓝蓝的天，往事一缕轻烟飘过你的眼帘
沉默的眼，请回答我还爱不爱我的从前
我的从前，有你陪伴的梦和一张疼爱的脸
如今细说往事，往事如烟
我是否还算是你的誓言
白云翩翩，心事一面一幕 飘过你的窗前
寂寞的窗，请开启我被岁月紧锁的思念
我的思念，有你牵挂的细语和一首胶着誓言
如今细说往事，往事如烟
我还是否还算是你的从前
往事从头，轻轻细说梦的演变
多年以后是否还有爱的容颜
往事从头，轻轻细说沧海桑田
是否能够回到从前再走一遍
