纪念George Michael 和WHAM!

对于60后和70后来说，WHAM!以及更早期的ABBA, 约翰.丹佛，和卡伦.卡彭特，他们带给了那个时代的年轻人对西方流行音乐的最初的认识。WHAM! 85年在北京的演唱会也是西方世界出名的流行乐队在中国的首次演出。

记得中学那时最开心的就是每周末收听FM 立体声英美音乐。 WHAM! 充满青春活力的歌自然成了心爱。特别是后来George Michael 走了solo, 就更喜欢他的歌了。一直觉得，他和Queens的Freddie Mercury, INXS的 Michael Hutchence 拥有最棒的歌喉和现场演出的天才，可惜现在这三个人全走了。

很多年前听George Michael 和 Elton John 和唱 John 那首著名的Don't let the sun go down on me。这是一首描写吸毒瘾君子每晚挣扎无助的歌。Michael 和 John 当然都是众所周知的和毒品addiction长期挣扎的艺人。第一次听，就觉得那种震撼人心的绝望感觉。这些年来也经常听到Michael的健康问题，虽然觉得那是迟早的事，可今天听到这个消息，还是非常伤感。因为他和 WHAM!的歌陪伴了我的青春时光。WHAM! 也是那个年代的符号。今晚写了这段作为一个昔日歌迷对George的纪念。

Don't let the sun go down on me

Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me

George Michael

I can't light no more of your darkness

All my pictures seem to fade to black and white

I'm growing tired and time stands still before me

Frozen here on the ladder of my life

It's much too late to save myself from falling

I took a chance and changed your way of life

But you misread my meaning when i met you

Closed the door and left me blinded by the light

Don't let the sun go down on me

Although i search myself, it's always someone else i see

I'd just allow a fragment of your life to wander free

But losing everything is like the sun going down on me

I can't find

Oh, the right romantic line

But see me once and see the way feel

Don't discard me baby don't

Just because you think i mean you harm

Just because you think i mean you harm, oh

But these cuts i have, cuts i have

They need love

They need love, they need love to help them heal

Oh, don't let the sun go down on me

Although i search myself, it's always someone else i see

I'd just allow a fragment of your life to wander free

Cause' losing everything is like the sun going down on me

Don't let the sun go down on me

Although i search myself, it's always someone else i that see, yeah

I'd just allow a fragment of your life to wander free baby, oh

Cause' losing everything is like the sun going down on me
