很喜歡英國歌手Phil Collins自己創作的這首歌曲「You’ll Be In My Heart」,當年可是拿到了葛萊美獎、奧斯卡獎、金球獎的最佳原創歌曲共三冠王的獎項。
這首11年前的名曲是迪士尼動畫電影泰山(Tarzan)的主題曲,菲爾科林斯是在1999年於當時瑞士自宅中譜寫演唱完成,並受到聽眾與電影觀眾好評,到底有哪些迷人之處呢?
我想,最成功的部份,是其意義不凡的歌詞,把親子間的Bond(牽絆、連結),還有要堅強地面對未來,做了相當貼切的詮釋。曲子本身也寫得很用心,一開始的鼓聲協助營造氣氛,第一段、第二段間的副歌則是以歌名為主的段落,真情流露,可以讓歌手表現自己擅長的部份,搭配泰山電影的故事主題,形成完美的組合,當年能夠拿下三大獎,實至名歸。
由於詞曲十分有意義(不論是對親子、情人間都是)。:P
以下是搭配電影的歌曲畫面 from YouTube很耐聽:

You’ll Be In My Heart Lyrics
Come, stop your crying
It will be all right
Just take my hand,
hold it tight
I will protect you
from all around you
I will be here,
don’t you cry
For one so small
You seem so strong
My arms will hold you
Keep you safe and warm
This bond between us
can’t be broken
I will be here,
don’t you cry
‘Cause you’ll be in my heart
Yes, you’ll be in my heart
From this day on
Now and forever more
You’ll be in my heart
No matter what they say
You’ll be here in my heart,
always
Why can’t they understand
the way we feel
They just don’t trust
What they can’t explain
I know we’re different
But deep inside us
We’re not that different at all
And you’ll be in my heart
Yes, you’ll be in my heart
From this day on
Now and forever more
Don’t listen to them
‘Cause what do they know?
We need each other
to have, to hold
They’ll see in time,
I know
When destiny calls you
You must be strong
I may not be with you
But you’ve got to hold on
They’ll see in time,
I know
We’ll show them together
‘Cause you’ll be in my heart
Believe me, you’ll be in my heart
I’ll be there from this day on
Now and forever more
You’ll be in my heart
You’ll be here in my heart
No matter what they say
I’ll be with you
You’ll be here in my heart,
I’ll be there always
always…
I’ll be with you
I’ll be there for you always
always and always
Just look over your shoulder
Just look over your shoulder
Just look over your shoulder
I’ll be there always
