老歌亂談(894)(I Believe) There's Nothing Stronger Than Our Love



Paul Anka在15歲時 (1957) 即以自己譜寫的《Diana》一曲成名,之後接著推出多首的熱門曲像是《Lonely Boy》、《Puppy Love》,更成為青少年的偶像。但自60年代中期起,也因受到大批英國樂團及歌手進入美國流行音樂市場的影響,一直未有排行榜前20名的佳作歌曲,直至1974才終於以一首《(You're) Having My Baby》,再嚐到榮登冠軍曲寶座的滋味。而該曲是意外的和女歌手Odia Coates合唱,既然效果奇佳,當然是要乘勝追擊,次年 (1975) 倆人再推出合唱曲《I Don't Like to Sleep Alone》及此首《(I Beleave) There's Nothing Stronger Than Our Love》等,成績果然也頗亮眼,分獲排行榜第8及第15名。

雖然說「歌曲就只是歌曲」,但若內容與演唱者的現實情況有所落差,則歌曲的「感動度」多少會被打些折扣。Paul Anka發行此曲時,尚身處第一段婚姻,妻子Anne de Zogheb是位黎巴嫩外交官的女兒,同時也是位模特兒,具有黎巴嫩、英國、法國、荷蘭和希臘的血統,倆人共生了五個女兒,在結婚了38年後,終於還是在2001離異。2008,Paul Anka與小他30歲曾當選過瑞典小姐亞軍、後受聘為他私人健身教練的AnnaÅberg結婚,已67歲的Anka老當益壯,終於生了個兒子,但此婚姻只維繫了兩年 ( 加在有拿到兒子的監護權 )。更猛的是,75歲的Anka梅開三度,2016在比佛利山莊的四季酒店與交往了6年的女友Lisa Pemberton結婚。呵呵!There's Nothing Stronger Than Our Love。

亂談(847)(You're)Having My Baby








I believe there is nothing stronger than our love
I believe there is nothing stronger than our love
When I'm with you Baby
All my worries disappear
Troubles that surround me
Disappear when you are near
When you need my loving
I'll be there
You know
When you need my loving
You know
Where to go
I believe there is nothing stronger than our love
I believe it
I believe there is nothing stronger than our love
I do believe it
I believe there is nothing stronger than our love
Baby I believe it
When I'm full of sadness
Nice to know you're always there
In this world of madness
Nice to know somebody cares
When I need your loving
You'll be there
I know
When I need your loving
I'll know where to go
I believe there is nothing stronger than our love
I believe it
I believe there is nothing stronger than our love
I do believe it
I believe there is nothing stronger than our love
Baby I believe it
When I'm with you Baby
I know you make me feel so good
When I'm with you Baby
You give me what nobody could
When you need my loving
I'll be there
You know
You know
When you need my loving
You know where to go
I believe there is nothing stronger than our love
I believe it
I believe there is nothing stronger than our love
I do believe it
I believe there is nothing stronger than our love
Baby I believe it
I believe there is nothing stronger than our love
I believe it
I believe there is nothing stronger than our love
