介绍：   Simon对歌唱的兴趣从童年萌芽，他从教堂的演唱中，领略到福音歌曲与和声唱法的技巧，回到家里，他则是沉浸在Bill Withers、Bob Marley与无数福音艺人的唱片世界中，青少年时期，Simon迷上了足球，但是，当他准备一圆足球明星梦的时候，却因在一场比赛中发生韧带撕裂伤的伤势，迫使他不得不永远高挂足球鞋。足球梦破灭后，Simon把梦想投射到娱乐事业上，19岁的时候，Simon凭着姣好的面容赢得模特儿的合约，虽然来自曼彻斯特一带的走秀邀约纷纷涌进，不过，Simon还是希望能够成为一位歌手，他的歌唱梦想稍后随着Blue的成军而开始发光发热，2001年起，Blue连创3张英国金榜冠军专辑、3首英国金榜冠军曲与8首英国金榜TOP 10畅销曲的纪录，其中，《All Rise》、《One Love》、《Fly By II》等单曲都是Simon的创作曲。

"Seventeen"，听到这首歌的时候会不会想起自己17岁时候的往事？一听到这首歌开头的旋律，马上就爱上了这首，随后Simon的演唱更是没让我失望，深深被他的嗓音所折服，歌曲总体给人的是欢快的感觉，相信大家都会喜欢。

歌词：

Seventeen, I was³ living⁵ life⁶
Chasing dreams⁷ and my hopes⁹ were high
Trying to get around my fear¹⁰ of
When and where do I go from here

I asked somebody¹¹ close to me
Who could¹² see a lot further¹³ than a boy could see
Oh, oh, oh and he said¹⁴...

Oh my, oh my, oh my these days are flying by
I still feel seventeen inside¹⁵, not one day over
Don't let the trials¹⁶ of life, change who you are tonight
Stay seventeen each time you get one year older

I said you're at that time of life when your heart¹⁷ is strong
Your future's bright, you can do no wrong
And don't you let those feelings¹⁸ out of sight
Keep a hold of them as⁴ the years go rolling¹⁹ by

These words have always stuck²⁰ with me
But now I'm only getting what it all appears²¹ to mean
Oh, oh, oh and he said...

Oh my, oh my, oh my these days are flying by
I still feel seventeen inside, not one day over
Don't let the trials of life, change who you are tonight
Stay seventeen each time you get one year older

He said...
my years have come and gone, in oh such²² little time
And I hope⁸ you live your life the way that I lived mine
Stay young at heart, stay young in mind²³

So I said...
Oh my, oh my, oh my these days are flying by
I'm still seventeen inside, not one day over
I won't let the trials of life, change who I am tonight
Stay seventeen each time you get one year older

One year older, one year older....
oh my oh my oh my oh my
So stay seventeen each time you get one year older
