英國實力歌姬[狄娜.卡洛]與劇場名人[安德魯洛伊韋伯]的交集──音樂劇[日落大道]插曲──[The Perfect Year/完美之年]
Ring out the old, bring in the new
A midnight wish to share with you
Your lips are warm, my head is light
Were we in love before tonight?
Oh, I dont need a crowded ballroom
Everything I need is here
If youre with me next year will be
The perfect year
No need to hear the music play
You eyes say all there is to say
The stars can fade and they can shine
Long as your face is next to mine
I dont need a crowded ball room
Everything I need is here
If youre with me next year will be
The perfect year
We dont need a crowded ballroom
Everything we need is here
If youre with me next year will be
The perfect year
Its new years eve and hopes are high
Dance one year in, kiss one goodbye
Another chance, another start
So many dreams to tease the heart
We dont need a crowded ballroom
Everything we need is here
And face to face we will embrace
The perfect year
Oh, we dont need a crowded ballroom
Everything we need is here
So face to face we shall embrace
The perfect year
Ooho, aha, the perfect year
1993年 25歲的英國歌壇熱門歌姬狄娜.卡洛(Dina Carroll)以百萬銷售的亞軍專輯[So Close]與#3單曲[Don’t Be a Stranger/別當陌生人]登上事業巔峰
這年11月 卡洛宣佈首度英國巡迴演唱
由當時尚未成氣候的女子團體姐妹情深(Eternal)為支援藝人
12月 狄娜灌錄當年上映 轟動一時的安德魯洛伊韋伯音樂劇[日落大道/Sunset Boulvard]裡的插曲[The Perfect Year/完美之年]
這首抒情曲登上英國榜#5
當時[Don’t Be a Stranger]仍停留在Top10
這讓卡洛成為1990年代唯一一位同時有兩首單曲停留在前十的英國女歌手
可見當時她的高人氣
