我把我所有录过的歌整理了一下，选了一些出来，放在歌曲翻唱精选页面里了。它们是：

Whitney Houston的电影The Bodyguard里有一首曲子，我觉得歌词特别适合《来自星星的你》。恰巧，两个剧情也有点类似。女主是大明星，男主是保镖。歌词里每一句都好像是为千讼依所作：

I know that when you look at me
There’s so much that you just don’t see
But if you would only take the time
I know in my heart you’d find
A girl who’s scared sometimes
Who isn’t always strong
Can’t you see the hurt in me?
I feel so all alone

I wanna run to you (oooh)
I wanna run to you (oooh)
Won’t you hold me in your arms
And keep me safe from harm
I wanna run to you (oooh)
But if I come to you (oooh)
Tell me, will you stay or will you run away

Each day, each day I play the role
Of someone always in control
But at night I come home and turn the key
There’s nobody there, no one cares for me
What’s the sense of trying hard to find your dreams
Without someone to share it with
Tell me what does it mean?

[chorus]

I need you here
I need you here to wipe away my tears
To kiss away my fears
If you only knew how much…

今天是Ella Fitzgerald 96岁生日。

有些真正的“一哥”和“一姐”，是能够名副其实到连最刻薄的人都无法不承认的地步的。小提琴家之中，Heifetz在名声上堪称一哥，但其实Kreisler、Szigeti、Rabin在我心目中也属于顶级。如果只能选一个，我真还不一定选Heifetz。Ella Fitzgerald完全不存在这个问题。Ella Fitzgerald、Sarah Vaughan、Billie Holiday和Dinah Waashington四个我无法比较高下，都是神级，但若只能选一个，我不会很困难地选择Ella Fitzgerald。

Ella Fitzgerald年轻的时候唱欢快的曲子很有趣味，年老的时候唱法口味更重，而且scat得很多，无论欢快还是悠慢的曲子都处理得很神奇。如果是慢曲子（例如Body and Soul）我比较喜欢她年老时的版本，但是像Satin Doll这种曲子，还是年轻时的比较好，但有些年老版（例如All of Me）从头scat到尾，也很棒。

以下是On a slow boat to China的两个版本。我最近挺喜欢这首歌。
