Alright, Still

最近在聽Mariah Carey的專輯

E=MC2

released on April 15, 2008





她的第二首主打單曲"BYE BYE"(Release Date :April 14, 2008)



她的歌唱技巧當然沒話說

歌詞也讓人好感動



根據WIKI

BYE BYE這首曲子是Mariah Carey寫來紀念2002年死於癌症的父親

不過事實上在Mariah Carey三歲的時候父母就離婚了

她跟她的母親生活在一起

與父親的接觸並不是那麼多



歌詞中似乎好像在寫著她個人的感情世界

不過她為了把這首歌分享給每個人

Mariah Carey在歌詞中首句就填上了

"This is for my peoples who just lost somebody"

她相信這首歌詞雖然是以她個人經歷填寫的

但這首歌在每個人的心中

都有一段故事
