电影歌曲:《在看你一眼》--Against All Odds

《在看你一眼》--Against All Odds¹

 

这首歌的原唱是Phil Collins，菲尔-柯林斯为1984年的电影"Against All Odds"演唱的同名主题曲，电影名《再看你一眼》（该电影有三个广泛流传的译名《危情十日》、《似是故人来》及《再看你一眼》》.这是由《军官司与绅士》导演泰勒-汉克福所执导，《奔腾年代》男主角布里吉与《荆棘鸟》女主角瑞秋-华德合演的电影的社会写实片，故事描述过气的运动员在奉命寻找富商女儿的过程中，情不自楚的爱上富商的女儿，因而卷入一段纠葛的爱恋情仇，柯林斯近乎嘶喊的情感唱腔深刻传达片中男、女主角深陷情义困境的无奈，这首歌让柯林斯首度同时获得奥斯卡，金球与格莱美奖最佳电影主题曲的提名肯定，当然也是排行榜上红不让的单曲，分别在美、英两地拿下冠、亚军。 

2000年9月，流行天后Mariah Carey邀请Westlife,希望与之合唱Phil Collins在1984年的冠军经典歌曲 "Against the Odds" ，Mariah天籁般的嗓音与Westlife的温柔和声相映成辉，为他们夺下了第6首冠军单曲。

 
Against All Odds

How can I just let you walk away,
just let you leave without a trace
When I stand here taking every breath with you, ooh
You're the only one who really knew me at all
How can you just walk away from me,
when all I can do is watch you leave
Cos we've shared the laughter and the pain,
and even shared the tears
You're the only one who really knew me at all
So take a look at me now,
'cos there's just an empty space
And there's nothing left here to remind me,
just the memory of your face
Take a look at me now,
'cos there's just an empty space
And you coming back to me is against all odds
and that's what I've got to face
I wish I could just make you turn around,
turn around and see me cry
There's so much I need to say to you,
so many reasons why
You're the only one who really knew me at all
So take a look at me now,
'cos there's just an empty space
And there's nothing left here to remind me,
just the memory of your face
Take a look at me now,
'cos there's just an empty space
But to wait for you,
well that's all I can do
and that's what I've got to face
Take a good look at me now,
'cos I'll still be standing here
And you coming back to me is against all odds
That's the chance I've got to take, oh, oho
Just take a look at me now
