此曲為有百老匯大師之稱的英國作曲家Andrew Lloyd Webber為舞台音樂劇《Whistle Down the Wind》( 微風輕哨 ) 所寫，後大師與愛爾蘭Boyzone ( 男孩特區 ) 樂團合作，於1998一舉奪下英國單曲排行榜的冠軍，也成為該團第一首攻佔美國市場的流行暢銷曲。再加上1999電影《Notting Hill》( 台譯：新娘百分百 ) 將此曲作為電影插曲的推波助瀾，這首歌在全球狂賣超過了4百萬張。



Boyzone成立於1993，後因故於2000解散。2007年底又合體復出，開始作全球的巡迴演唱 ( 好像也來過台灣？)。2009年，才公開出櫃不久的主唱之一的Stephen Gately，被發現猝死在西班牙的馬略卡島 ( Majorca )。據說當晚他曾外出喝了幾杯小酒 (？)，回飯店睡覺後就再也沒醒過來。經驗屍後西班牙法庭表示，沒有任何暴力跡象，Stephen Gately是死於肺水腫 ( 我猜極有可能是酒醉被自己的嘔吐物給噎死的 )。少了Stephen Gately，原Boyzone優美的合唱也成為了絕響。


Stephen Gately

哈哈，之前我從不聽「男孩特區」或是「西城男孩」或是「接招」這些樂團的歌。是因此曲和之前已貼過的英國樂團Badfinger的歌名相同，才點進YouTube聽的。感覺似曾相識 ( 潛意識有接收過媒體的播放？)，而確實也不錯聽，就當作是介紹給自己的吧！^^



No matter what they tell us
No matter what they do
No matter what they teach us
What we believe is true
No matter what they call us
However they attack
No matter where they take us
We'll find our own way back
I can't deny what I believe
I can't be what I'm not
I know our love's forever
I know no matter what
If only tears were laughter
If only night was day
If only prayers were answered
Then we would hear God say
No matter what they tell you
No matter what they do
No matter what they teach you
What you believe is true
And I will keep you safe and strong
And sheltered from the storm
No matter where it's barren
A dream is being born
No matter who they follow
No matter where they lead
No matter how they judge us
I'll be everyone you need
No matter if the sun don't shine
Or if the skies aren't blue
No matter what the ending
My life began with you
I can't deny what I believe
I can't be what I'm not
I know this love's forever
That's all that matters now
No matter what
No, no matter what
No, no matter what
No, no matter
That's all that matters to me
No, no matter
That's all that matters to me
No, no matter
That's all that matters to me
No, no matter
That's all that matters to me
No, no matter what
That's all that matters to me
No, no matter what
That's all that matters to me
