英國歌姬〔席娜．伊斯頓〕與影壇天后〔黛咪摩兒〕的交集──話題電影〔桃色交易〕插曲──爵士樂經典翻唱──〔The Nearness of You／你的親近〕

Its not the pale moon that excites me
That thrills and delights me, oh no
Its just the nearness of you

It isnt your sweet conversation
That brings this sensation, oh no
Its just the nearness of you

When youre in my arms and I feel you so close to me
All my wildest dreams come true

I need no soft lights to enchant me
But if youll only grant me the right
To hold you ever so tight
And to feel in the night ooh the nearness of you

When youre in my arms and I feel you so close to me
All my wildest dreams come true

I need no soft lights to enchant me
But if youll only grant me the right
To hold you ever so tight
And to feel in the night the nearness of you

１９９３年春天　當時影壇的票房天后女王──３０歲的黛咪摩兒與５６歲的影壇天王勞勃瑞福主演轟動一時的賣座文藝戲劇片〔Indecent Proposal／桃色交易〕

造成轟動話題

原聲帶眾星雲集

其中３４歲的英國歌姬席娜．伊斯頓（Sheena Easton）獻唱一曲〔The Nearness of You／你的親近〕

她並在電影中擔任歌手　由Herbie Hancock彈奏鋼琴

以其晶瑩剔透的嗓音演繹這首時常被翻唱的１９３８年爵士經典

〔The Nearness of You〕是席娜嘗試爵士的預覽

１９９３年８月　伊斯頓便發行一張爵士／傳統流行的翻唱專輯〔No Strings〕

便收錄這曲〔The Nearest of You〕

在歐洲　它並以宣傳單曲的方式主打

只是當時席娜聲勢已在下滑　所以並未在市場引起迴響

但〔No Strings〕仍獲得高度評

見證以曲風多變的席娜音樂實力

〔The Nearest of You〕後來也被爵士天后諾拉瓊斯（Nora Jones）在首張專輯〔Come Fly With Me〕翻唱

不過伊斯頓的版也極具個人特色
