美國實力歌姬［狄昂華薇克］──成人流行／流行靈魂抒情曲

──［Are You There (with Another Girl) ／你在哪裡嗎(和另一個女孩)］

I hear the music coming out of your radio
Are you there with another girl instead of me?
I hear your laughter and theres something Ive got to know
Are you there with another girl instead of me?

Well, Im standing on your doorstep and I dont know what to do
Should I ring your doorbell or just walk away?
My friends all say that you were never true
Hiding in the shadows

I see two silhouettes in the back of your window shade
Are you there with another girl when I am gone?
I cant believe youd break the promises that you made
If youre there with another girl, I cant go on

Oh, I only know I love you and I couldnt say goodbye
So if theres another, I dont want to know
If you should go, oh, I would surely die
Love requires faith, Ive got a lot of faith but
I hear the music comin out of your radio

Oh, I only know I love you and I couldnt say goodbye
So if theres another, I dont want to know
If you should go, oh, I would surely die
You would never leave me, hurt me or deceive me
Im a fool to doubt you, worry so about you
Love requires faith, Ive got a lot in me but
I hear the music coming out of your radio

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

１９６５年１２月　２５歲的美國非裔歌姬狄昂．華薇克（Dionne Warwick）推出第五張大碟［Here I Am／我在這裡］（Scepter出版）

由導師Burt Bacharach, Hal David製作　

樂評優良, 是她事業早期最出色作品之一．

大碟登上美國Billboard專輯榜＃４５　副榜──R&B專輯榜＃３,　皆是當時狄昂事業最高名次

１９６５年１２月，狄昂推出第三單曲［Are You There (with Another Girl) ／你在哪裡嗎(和另一個女孩)］,

由Burt Bacharach, Hal David譜寫，並製作成一首成人流行／流行靈魂抒情曲

節奏輕盈，狄昂輕柔的唱腔熱情感性．

作家Serene Domenic 在《Burt Bacharach Song by Song》一書中讚揚這首歌，並寫道它的“嗡嗡作響的弦樂”、“奇怪的音品滑動吉他”以及在披頭士樂隊的「A Day in the Life」（1967 年）之前的管弦樂漸強。

他還推測這首歌影響了 海灘男孩（Beach Boys） 的作曲家 Brian Wilson，創作了專輯 ［Pet Sounds］ 歌曲［Let’s Go Away for Awhile］(1966)。

［Here I Am］登上美國Billboard單曲榜＃３９　副榜──R&B榜＃３５．

加拿大＃１３，澳大利亞＃５４　

這是華薇克事業初期佳作之一．
