黑人天后〔黛安娜蘿絲〕與〔瑪麗亞凱莉〕 &〔珍妮佛洛佩茲〕的交集──冠軍抒情名作──〔Theme From Mohogany(Do You Know Where You’re Going To?)〕
(M. Masser/G. Goffin)
Do you know where youre going to?
Do you like the things that life is showing you
Where are you going to?
Do you know...?
Do you get
What youre hoping for
When you look behind you
Theres no open door
What are you hoping for?
Do you know...?
Once we were standing still in time
Chasing the fantasies
That filled our minds
You knew how I loved you
But my spirit was free
Laughin at the questions
That you once asked of me
Do you know where youre going to?
Do you like the things that life is showing you
Where are you going to?
Do you know...?
Now looking back at all weve planned
We let so many dreams
Just slip through our hands
Why must we wait so long
Before well see
How sad the answers
To those questions can be
Do you know where youre going to?
Do you like the things that life is showing you
Where are you going to?
Do you know...?
Do you get
What youre hoping for
When you look behind you
Theres no open door
What are you hoping for?
Do you know...?
1975年秋天 31歲的黑人天后黛安娜蘿絲(Diana Ross)主演電影〔Mohogany〕
雖然票房還不錯 但評價遠不及上一部〔Lady Sings The Blues/難補情天恨〕
當然黛安娜也演唱了主題曲〔Theme From Mohogany(Do You Know Where You’re Going To?)//君知汝往何處去〕
這首旋律美妙的抒情佳作於1976年初登上了美國流行榜后座
成為蘿絲單飛後個人第三首冠軍曲
此外還是成人抒情榜冠軍 黑人榜#14
英國#5 加拿大#3
隔年還獲得奧斯卡最佳電影歌曲提名
黛安娜也成為頒獎典禮有史以來第一位隔空表演的歌手(當時她在荷蘭舉行演唱會)
90年代末期時新力天后瑪麗亞凱莉(Mariah Carey)與剛簽約的新人珍妮佛洛佩茲(Jennifer Lopez)同時翻唱了這首歌曲
分別收錄在〔# 1’ s〕與〔On The 6〕專輯中
不過由於唱片公司的決定 兩個版本都只有在美國海外發行
Anyway , 〔 Do You Know Where You’re Going To?〕是首優美的流行抒情名作
充滿70年代的復古風情
