美國偶像歌手〔湯米佩吉〕&黑人天后〔蒂娜透納〕的交集──抒情佳作──轉變性感路線的〔Missing You/想念妳〕
Every time I think of you I always catch my breath
And I'm still standing here and you're miles away
And I'm wondering why you left
And there's a storm that's raging
Through my frozen heart tonight
I hear your name in certain circles
And it always makes me smile
I spend my time thinking about you
And it's almost driving me wild
And there's a heart that's breaking
Down this long distance line tonight
I ain't missing you at all (missing you)
Since you've been gone away
I ain't missing you (missing you)
No matter what I might say
There's a message in the wire
And I'm sending you this signal tonight
You don't know how desperate I've become
And it looks like I'm losing this fight
In your world I have no meaning
Though I'm trying hard to understand
And it's my heart that's breaking
Down this long distance line tonight
I ain't missing you at all (missing you, missing you)
Since you've been gone away
I ain't missing you (missing you, missing you)
No matter what my friends say
And there's a message that I'm sending out
like a telegram to your soul
And if I can't bridge this distance,
Stop this heart break overload
I ain't missing you at all (missing you, missing you)
Since you've been gone away
I ain't missing you (missing you, missing you)
No matter what my friends say
I ain't missing you at all (missing you, missing you)
Since you've been gone away
And there's a storm that's raging
Through my frozen heart tonight
I ain't missing you at all (missing you, missing you)
Since you've been gone away
Ain't missing you (missing you, missing you)
No matter what my friends say
I ain't missing you at all (missing you, missing you)
Oh no
missing you, missing you
I've been lying to myself
missing you, missing you

1996年 26歲的美國偶像創作歌手湯米佩吉(Tommy Page)發行〔Lovin’You/愛妳〕專輯
這是他加盟日本唱片公司波麗佳音後的第二張大碟
1991年後 湯米在美國便急速走下坡
不過亞洲仍有一批固定的支持者
所以他便將事業重心放在遠東
在〔Lovin’You〕專輯中 湯米翻唱了英國歌手約翰威特(John Waite)在1984年登上美國單曲榜冠軍的〔Missing You/想念妳〕
前一年(1995)美國黑人天后蒂娜透納(Tina Turner)也重唱過(剛好是1996年發行單曲)
可是跟前兩者不同
約翰威特與蒂娜透納走的是激昂強勁的流行搖滾味
佩吉則是較輕柔的抒情版
在優美的鋼琴與吉他聲中
湯米以他有氣無力的細緻嗓音時而呢喃 時而略帶激昂詮釋此曲
風格與先前版本迥異 但一樣好聽
MV也跟佩吉以前的斯文書生形象不同
只見健身有成的湯米改走性感路線
在海邊以許多清涼打扮展現其明顯的胸肌與結實的身材
雖然有點難以跟歌曲搭在一起
Anyway, 湯米的〔Missing You〕是首相當動聽的抒情佳作 介紹給各位
