老歌亂談(1185)Please Don't Stop Loving Me

推薦 5 收藏 0 轉貼0 訂閱站台

此曲為美國鄉村歌手Dolly Parton與Porter Wagoner所合寫及錄唱,收錄在1974的專輯《Porter 'n' Dolly》中。自1968至1980,倆人共合出過13張專輯,其中共有21首入榜單曲,而此首《Please Don't Stop Loving Me》則是倆人合作唯一的一首冠軍曲。

1967,Dolly Parton受邀加入Porter Wagoner的團隊,每週定期出現在Porter主持的電視節目及各地的巡演中,Dolly也因頻繁的露臉而提高了她的知名度,說Porter是Dolly演藝事業的「提攜者」應也不為過。但由於Dolly逐漸的「大尾」( 例如她個人在 1970及1973分別以《Joshua》、《Jolene》奪得鄉村榜的冠軍 ),想在節目中替自己爭取更多的空間,難免觸犯了Porter的規劃,終於在7年後Dolly選擇離開Porter的團隊獨自發展。離開前,Porter要求Dolly再寫一首歌,因此Dolly寫了這首《I will Always Love You》,此曲分別在1974及1982兩度替Dolly奪下鄉村榜的冠軍。18年後的1992,Whitney Houston ( 惠妮休斯頓 ) 為她和Kevin Costner ( 凱文科斯納 ) 所主演的電影「The Bodyguard ( 台譯:終極保鑣 )」翻唱此曲,不僅在29個國家地區排行榜拿下第一名,也替Whitney贏得了兩座葛萊美獎。

其實Dolly離開Porter時,Porter曾提起訴訟要求300萬美元的賠償,後Dolly以100萬美元和解 (
分年償還 )。不過,最後倆人還是選擇了相互原諒。1980,倆人再度合作錄製了一張專輯《Porter & Dolly》。2007,Porter Wagoner因肺癌辭世 ( 80歲 ),他的家人和Dolly都在他身旁。之後,Dolly還在田納西的Dollywood公園舉辦了一場紀念Porter的音樂會。

Please, please, don't stop loving me
For I couldn't live with you gone
Please, please, don't stop loving me
For I couldn't make it alone

You bring me the sunshine
When none is in sight
And when I'm in darkness
You bring me the light
You opened my eyes
When I couldn't see
So please, oh, please
Don't stop loving me


You're my inspiration
My purpose in life
When things go all wrong
You make them alright
I would be useless
If you ever leave
So please, oh, please
Don't stop loving me

Please, please, don't stop loving me
For I couldn't live with you gone
Please, please, don't stop loving me
For I couldn't make it alone
Please, please, don't stop loving me

【I Will Always Love You 】


If I should stay
Well I would only be in your way
And so I'll go, and yet I know
I'll think of you each step of the way


And I will always love you
I will always love you


Bitter-sweet memories
That's all I'm taking with me
Good-bye, please don't cry
'Cause we both know that I'm not
What you need


But I will always love you
I will always love you


And I hope life, will treat you kind
And I hope that you have all
That you ever dreamed of
Oh I do wish you joy
And I wish you happiness
But above all this
I wish you love
I love you
I will always love you


I, I will always, always love you
I will always love you
I will always love you
I will always love you
