Do you remember

Phil colins
1951年出生於倫敦,是一位著名的歌手,鼓手,創作者,”創世紀”樂隊的領唱.曾多次獲得格萊美獎和學院獎.他還曾演過電影.

從1984年到1989年,他曾8次入選美國拍行榜.他的歌曲涉獵廣泛,從重搖滾到舞曲,還有的涉及政治(比如歌曲”天堂裏的另一天”).

他的事業始於從樂隊鼓手開始的1969年. 1996年,他離開了”創世紀”樂隊開始了獨唱生涯.到了2002年,他作為獨唱歌手的專輯在全球範圍內賣出了超過100million張拷貝.

他的代表歌曲,描寫無家可歸者生活的”Another day in paradise”為他獲得了1989年的排行榜冠軍以及1990年的格來美年度歌曲.”Do you remember” 則是當年的美國排名第四的熱門曲.

1998年, Phil Colins 的專輯True Color曾在當代音樂排行榜上占據第二名的位置,他的下一支單曲”you’ll be in my heart” 是迪斯尼的動畫片TARZAN的插曲,在當代音樂排行榜上連續19周冠軍,這在曆史上絕無僅有的,他也因此得到了OSCAR獎.

下麵這首優美的歌曲Do you remember 描述的是一段讓人失落的情感.我第一次聽到就被它的曲調深深地吸引.視頻描述的是兩個小夥伴青梅竹馬的美好經曆,跟失落的感情恰成對比.

We never talked about it
But I hear the blame was mine
Id call you up to say Im sorry
But I wouldnt want to waste your time

cos I love you, but I cant take any more
Theres a look I cant describe in your eyes
Yes we could try, like we tried before
When you kept on telling me those lies

Do you remember...?

There seemed no way to make up
cos it seemed your mind was set
And the way you looked it told me
Its a look I know Ill never forget

You couldve come over to my side
You couldve let me know
You couldve tried to see the distance between us
But it seemed too far for you to go.

Do you remember...?

Through all of my life
In spite of all the pain
You know people are funny sometimes
cos they just cant wait
To get hurt again

Do you remember...?

There are things we wont recall
Feelings well never find
Its taken so long to see it
Cos we never seemed to have the time

There was always something more important to do
More important to say
But I love you wasnt one of those things
And now its too late

Do you remember...?
