Goodbye, Pavarotti！
被譽為世界三大男高音之一的帕華洛帝(Luciano Pavarotti)，於九月六日因胰臟癌逝世，享年七十一歲。
帕華洛帝並非科班出身，直到二十六歲才從選秀會脫穎而出，獲得歌劇演出機會，進而成為家喻戶曉的男高音，演唱時左手纏著的白手巾是他的招牌標誌。因為常跟流行樂手合作舉行演唱會、拍電影，出席足球賽奧運會等賽事場合演唱，一直被批評為流於商業化，他則認為：「怎樣？不行嗎？(小心眼擅自幫他詮釋的語氣)」
是他情熱的歌聲，帶我進入歌劇的殿堂。
關於他的生平：

他最膾炙人口的一首歌【Nessun Dorma】：

另一首招牌歌【O sole mio】，我選了三大男高音的合唱版：

我個人很喜歡的【Torna a Surriento】：

順便來一首跟U2合唱的【Miss Sarajevo】：

不管帕華洛帝自己在生命結束時有沒有遺憾，他確實用歌聲為這個世界帶來很多的美好。
最後謹以【My Way】，悼念這位聽說看不懂歌譜的世紀天才。
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.
And 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,
and 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,
”Oh 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!
I did it my way.

親愛的帕華洛帝，謝謝你，再見！
P.S.【My Way】這首歌原來是法文名曲【Comme d’habitude】，講述一天回到家裡卻發現戀人不在，只好日復一日一如往常吃飯睡覺等待，如同戀人也一如往常不回來一樣。原唱Claude François的聲音也超好聽，可是YOUTUBE上不是配上奇怪的MV，就是品質不好，只好不放上來了。另外，帕華洛帝曾於前年年底來台，在台中開過演唱會。很遺憾沒能親臨現場。真的很多事當下不做，一輩子都做不了了。
