本文发表在 rolia.net 枫下论坛“My Way”这首歌好听而且意味深长，不但为许多喜爱音乐的人们所迷恋，许多音乐人对其也是情有独钟。比如大名鼎鼎的Frank Sinatra就把这首歌作为了自己的保留曲目至今仍是广为传唱。这首歌也被改编成各种音乐形式，从流行乐、爵士乐到轻音乐、管弦乐不一而足，可见其受欢迎的程度了。




最初的法国歌名是《像平常一样》，由Claude Francois 于1967年在法国唱红，这首歌在保罗安卡填上英文歌词，并改名为《My Way》之后于1969年重生。猫王在1972年把它加入演出中。他认为这首歌宣告一个男人生命的骄傲，以及在面对障碍和困难时的成就。法兰克·辛纳屈在1969年以《My Way》唱出畅销曲，八年后，这首歌成为猫王第一首单曲遗作，销售量很快就突破辛纳屈，而且成为猫王最后一张百万畅销曲。Robbie Willimse在2001Alerbt Concert上的闭幕曲就是这首《MY WAY》.他唱完后不能自已地流下了眼泪....


And now, the end is near
And so I face the final curtain
My friend, I'll say it clear
I'll state my case, of which I'm certain

I've lived a life that's full
I've traveled each and every highway
But more, much more than this
I did it my way

Regrets, I've had a few
But then again, too few to mention
I did what I had to do
And saw it through without exemption

I planned each charted course
Each careful step along the byway
But more, much more than this
I did it my way

Yes, there were times I'm sure you knew
When I bit off more than I could chew
But through it all, when there was doubt
I ate it up and spit it out
I faced it all and I stood tall
And did it my way

I've loved, I've laughed and cried
I've had my fill; my share of losing
And now, as tears subside
I find it all so amusing

To think I did all that
And may I say - not in a shy way
"No, oh no not me
I did it my way"

For what is a man, what has he got?
If not himself, then he has naught
To say the things he truly feels
And not the words of one who kneels
The record shows I took the blows
And did it my way更多精彩文章及讨论，请光临枫下论坛 rolia.net
