Don't Go Breaking My Heart

Photobucket

一首由Elton John与Kiki Dee合唱的经典情歌,节奏轻快,加上歌词鬼马易记,才推出就横扫大西洋两岸各大流行榜。在英国蝉连6周冠军,不仅仅是Elton John首只No.1的单曲,还稳坐了美国Billboard Hot 100四个星期的冠军宝座。空前绝后的成功,他俩并没有乘胜追击,第二次携手合唱没想到竟会是17年后的《True Love》。

Elton John贵为英国流行乐坛的国宝级人马,我想应该没有人不认识他这位“乐坛大姑妈”。Kiki Dee这位同样来自英国本土的女歌手,虽然实力非凡,但星途就较为暗淡无光。她40年的演唱生涯供推出过39首单曲和为数不多的专辑,但真正站在顶峰的还是与Elton John合作的这一次。

以下(1976年)是这首歌的MV,制作粗陋,导演只是把两位“假装”录音的画面拍摄下来便草草交货。2000年那支片段是在Elton John演唱会上,两位再次现场演绎这首歌曲。

Don't Go Breaking My Heart
Don't go breaking my heart
I couldn't if I tried
Oh honey if I get restless
Baby you're not that kind
Don't go breaking my heart
You take the weight off me
Oh honey when you knock on my door
I gave you my key
Nobody knows it
When I was down
I was your clown
Nobody knows it Nobody knows
Right from the start
I gave you my heart Oh~
I gave you my heart
So don't go breaking my heart
I won't go breaking your heart
Don't go breaking my heart
And nobody told us
'Cause nobody showed us
And now it's up to us girl
I think we can make it
So don't misunderstand me
You put the light in my life
You put the sparks to the flame
I've got your heart in my sights
