昨晚午夜看完 Moon River 的「知道你很好也就夠了…」乙文百感交集
臨睡前才剛翻出一首鄧麗君的歌自娛也樂人
頓時心想晚點睡好了非找到這首歌不可：『I Know Him So Well』
我擷取的上圖是女星 Dana Winner（金髮露肩禮服）與 Belle Perez 的版本
全曲現場演唱… http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ktbCN_ytsfM
為什麼我特別喜歡這版本後述
『I Know Him So Well』是我在2010年6月去外地探視友人的妹妹
在下榻的飯店早餐後回房無意間在NHK電視新聞上聽到此首片段
當時是 Susan Boyle（著名的英國蘇珊大嬸） 與她的偶像 Elaine Paige 的 TV Live http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9o8PgJPUjfo&feature=related
回來後查 YouTube 歌名原來是 I Know Him So Well...
原唱大多是 Barbara Dickson 及 Elaine Paige 版本
Barbara Dickson 官方網站 http://www.barbaradickson.net/index.html
這個 link 的 Barbara Dickson 及 Elaine Paige 都好年輕 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uAf5osL1gNE
2004年 Barbara Dickson 及 Elaine Paige 的 Live http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d_6BTJxCK24
其他女歌手也唱過如 Barbra Streisand(芭芭拉史翠珊) 及 Whitney Houston(惠妮休斯頓)
男歌手也唱過 John Barrowman & Daniel Boys 版本 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9F_j3yHhYEo
我會獨衷偏愛 Dana Winner 與 Belle Perez 的版本
是因為妹妹長相神韻甚至連歌聲都酷似 Dana Winner
某晚在病床前我聽到妹婿用iPhone播出幾段妹妹她身體好轉時在KTV的錄音
轉眼三個月後妹妹英年早逝...
今晚耳畔猶響起妹妹當時抱病唱出對生命的吶喊
與聆聽 Moon River 含蓄未啟齒的戀曲
共鳴與感動的思緒忍不住奪眶而出...

I KNOW HIM SO WELL
Nothing is so good it lasts eternally
Perfect situations must go wrong
But this has never yet prevented me
Wanting far too much for far too long
Looking back I could have played it differently
Won a few more moments, who can tell
But it took time to understand the man
Now at least I know I know him well
Wasn't it good,
Oh so good
Wasn't he fine
Oh so fine
Isn't it madness
He can't be mine
But in the end he needs a little bit more than me
More security
He needs his fantasy and freedom
I know him so well
No one in your life is with you constantly
No one is completely on your side
And though I move my world to be with him
Still the gap between us is too wide
Looking back I could have played it differently
(Looking back I could have played things some other way)
Learned about the man before I fell
(I was just a little careless maybe)
But I was ever so much younger then
(Much younger then)
Now at least I know him well
Now at least I know I know him well
Wasn't it good
Oh so good
Wasn't he fine
Oh so fine
Isn't it madness
He won't be mine
Didn't I know how it would go
If I knew from the start
Why am I falling apart
Wasn't it good, wasn't he fine
Isn't it madness
He won't be mine
But in the end he needs a little bit more than me
More security
He needs his fantasy and freedom
I know him so well
It took time to understand him
I know him so well
