被老公海扁的黑人天后〔黛安娜蘿絲〕──冠軍舞曲──〔Take Me Higher/展翅高飛〕
(Narada Michael Walden/S.J.Dakota/Germaine)
Take me to that place
Higher
Go, hold on
Go
(Take me higher)
(Take me higher)
In my mind I see the possibilities
When it comes to love there are no boundaries
Do you think that you and I can work it out
Thats what true loves about
Baby we can find an answer if we look inside our hearts
Love will be there waiting for us
Baby we can rise above it if we leave our doubts behind us
We can learn to fly high above us
Theres a place up in the sky
Where the sun is shining
Take me higher
(Take me higher)
Theres a place I long to be
Where the birds are flying
Take me higher
(Take me higher)
LP
See it on the news, theres trouble eveywhere
Gotta reach out show somebody that you care
It aint good to let the bad news get us down
Lets spread some love around
Even if you want to go there
To a place above the clouds
Got to feel the power of love (power of love)
Baby we can rise above it if we leave our doubts behind
We can learn to fly high above us
Theres a place up in the sky
Where the sun is shining
Take me higher
(Take me higher)
Theres a place I long to be
Where the birds are flying
Take me higher
(Take me higher)
(repeat)
You gotta reach out
Feel the power of love
Show somebody you care
Take me...
Oh baby
Higher
Take me higher
Theres a place up in the sky
Where the sun is shining
Take me higher
(Take me higher)
Theres a place I long to be
Where the birds are flying
Take me higher
(Take me higher)
(repeat)
Take me higher
Take me, take me
Take me higher
(Take me higher)
(repeat three times)
Theres a place up in the sky
Where the sun is shining
Take me higher
(Take me higher)
Theres a place I long to be
I want to go flying
(Take me higher)
Single
1995年夏天 黑人巨星黛安娜蘿絲(Diana Ross)推出個人第19張個人大碟〔Take Me Higher/展翅高飛〕
請來許著名製作人/詞曲家共同合作 包括Babyface, Brenda Russell等
就跟她近十年來的作品一樣 在故鄉美國反應不佳(專輯榜#119)
卻在英國銷售不錯(UK#10)
首支主打為大碟同名歌曲
由常跟惠妮休斯頓(Whitney Houston) 艾瑞莎富蘭克林(Aretha Franklin)合作的金牌製作人Narada Michael Walden操刀
是首旋律討好 活力十足的流行舞曲佳作
可惜仍無法讓黛安娜蘿絲打進睽違多年的美國流行榜Top100
〔Take Me Higher/展翅高飛〕得到舞曲播放榜冠軍 舞曲銷售#8
R&B榜#77 英國榜則是差強人意的#32
我有買這張大碟 黛安娜的造型仍繼續她那十年來從沒變化的超級爆炸頭
有位毒舌派樂評嘲笑她看起來就像被老公海扁過的怨婦一樣
(當然現實生活上沒人敢扁蘿絲小姐的 不過形容得還真貼切)
〔Take Me Higher/展翅高飛〕是一首相當動聽的舞曲佳作 推薦給各位
