Candle In The Wind

Candle In The Wind Goodbye England's rose May you ever grow in our hearts You were the grace that placed itself Where lives were torn apart You called out to our country And you whispered to those in pain Now you belong to heaven And the stars spell out your name It seems to me you lived your life Like a candle in the wind Thank Autumn for the templet

第一次聽這首歌，是10年前從電視直播的戴安娜的葬禮上，Elton John那感人的歌聲和欲哭無淚的悲傷表情讓人難忘。戴安娜車禍遇難時，我在巴黎。雖然我不是王妃迷，但為一個美麗的生命這樣殘酷地結束而感到傷心。更何況，她是兩個當時還年幼的孩子的母親......，當然，我也是在自己做了母親後，感慨更深：希望看到和陪伴孩子長大。
雖然Elton John不是自己最喜愛的歌手，但對他唱的《Candle in The Wind》卻情有獨鍾，謝謝Rebecca和我們一起分享。
祝你度過一個快樂的星期天，Rebecca!

Sir Elton Hercules John CBE (born Reginald Kenneth Dwight on 25 March 1947) is a five-time Grammy and one-time Academy Award-winning English pop/rock singer, composer and pianist.

In his four-decade career, John has been one of the dominant forces in rock and popular music, especially during the 1970s. His is one of the most successful artists of all time. His success has had a profound impact on popular music and has contributed to the continued popularity of the piano in rock and roll.

Some of the characteristics of Elton John's music are his ability to quickly craft unique melodies for the lyrics of songwriting partner Bernie Taupin, his rich tenor (now baritone) voice, his classical and gospel-influenced piano, the aggressive orchestral arrangements of Paul Buckmaster among others and the flamboyant fashions and on-stage showmanship, especially evident during the 1970s.
