@pueM+(L& 这是Luther VanDross生前最后一张唱片,也是他最成功的一张唱片,在得了Grammy奖后他因为已经卧床不起了,所以得无法亲自去领奖。
!(=bH"P 记得第一次听到他的声音是在上中学时,BTV每天傍晚有一档国际交流的节目,主持人都是青春靓丽的哥哥姐姐们,他们*着流利的英语为我们介绍国外的一切,当然[url=]
音乐[/url]和艺术是很重要的节目。那时候虽然英语水平不高(现在也只是so so。呵呵!),但是因为喜欢Mariah Carey和Celine Dion,所以很关注这档节目。
v#EXlpS Dance with my father,表面上看是想和父亲共舞,但其实回忆的还是小时候一家人在一起的欢乐时光,是替[url=]
自己[/url]的母亲向上帝祈求能让他们一起舞蹈。从看过的关于黑人的影片中得到这样一个印象,虽然有的人受教育不多,但他们和我们中国人一样很重视家庭。
;\yVwur Luther VanDross死后,大牌明星们联手制作了一张向其致意的怀念专辑,Celine Dion摒弃了她华丽的技巧,用最温柔委婉的声音再次帮我们回忆了小时候一家人其乐融融的动人场面。
