這篇文章本來是Joanne要跟大家分享的, 不知為什麼一直沒publish, 所以我等不及了就發表囉
過氣歌手的另一種比較文雅的說法是"我們那個年代"的歌手, 這也是星光大道設定的主題之一.

George Michael是Joanne超級喜歡的...過氣歌手, 他的一首Careless Whisper 相信也是會晃到這裡的人必定熟悉的一首經典名曲.
Yuming在星光中演出之後, 被評審評為不夠sexy, 那George Michael到底有多Sexy呢? 聽了就知道...
Careless Whisper

I feel so unsure
As I take your hand and lead you to the dance floor
As the music dies, something in your eyes
Calls to mind the silver screen
And all its sad good-byes

*I'm never gonna dance again
Guilty feet have got no rhythm
Though it's easy to pretend
I know you're not a fool
Should've known better than to cheat a friend
And waste the chance that I've been given
So I'll never gonna dance again
The way I danced with you
(Never without your love)

Time can never mend
the careless whispers of a good friend
To the heart and mind, ignorance is kind
There's no comfort in the truth
Pain is all you'll find (*)

Tonight the music seems so loud
I wish that we could lose this crowd
Maybe it's better this way
We'd hurt each other with the things we'd want to say

We could have been so good together
We could have lived this dance forever
But none's gonna dance with me
Please stay (*)

(Now that you're gone) Now that you're gone
(Now that you're gone) was what I did so wrong
That you had to leave me alone

偏偏K歌情人還真是有心, Hugh Grant飾演的男主角跟本就是直接影射George Michael, 尤其是那雙人偶像團體的青春熱舞- Pop! Goes My Heart+爛到不行的80年代MV, 活拖就是把George Michael拿出來用力鞭了一下. 不過OST能夠把Careless Whisper的元素(Sax, 樂段, 甚至歌詞)完全掌握進而複製出這首"仿"經典的Meaningless Kiss. 每次聽的時候都會有會心的一笑.
分享一下

Meaningless Kiss
演唱：Hugh Grant

I saw you across the dance floor
Out of the corner of my eye
I felt the connection
I don't know how, I don't know why
I shouldn't of stayed when I saw you there
With another man
But as we slipped away
I thought I heard you say
This wasn't part of the plan

CHORUS:
Just a meaningless kiss
It wasn't suppose to end up like this
Just a meaningless kiss
Oh ohh
Just a meaningless kiss
We knew it was wrong
But we couldn't resist
Just a meaningless kiss
Til I fell in love
With you

But you didn't want me to

Ohh no

Here we are two years later
Too late to turn back now
We gotta finish what we shouldn't have started
We've got to walk away somehow
But it's easier said than done
When two hearts beat as one

And three hearts are one too many
That's why we shouldn't have ever begun

CHORUS:
Just a meaningless kiss
It wasn't suppose to end up like this
Just a meaningless kiss
Oh ohh
Just a meaningless kiss
We knew it was wrong
But we couldn't resist
Just a meaningless kiss

We can't go on like this forever
When we're not meant to be together
So leave me here
On my own
From now on I guess I got to dance alone

CHORUS:
Just a meaningless kiss
It wasn't suppose to end up like this
Just a meaningless kiss
Ohh ohh
Just a meaningless kiss
We knew it was wrong
But we couldn't resist
Just a meaningless kiss
But I'm still in love
With you

No matter what I do
