今晚在edit 照片時聽了整張專輯兩遍,裏面有一首歌深深的吸引了我,就是《Cinderella》。這是一首英文爵士藍調風格的曲,和以往JJ的英文歌如《Now That She's Gone》那一般抒情曲風不一樣,很有新鮮感。這類型的曲風在華語流行專輯最常見的應該只有方大同而已。
說實在自從《西界》專輯開始我就已經很少聽JJ的歌,因為整張專輯好聽的多數只有那一兩首抒情歌,其它的曲風都是我比較接受不了的另類快歌,感覺上就好像王力宏一樣開始沒新鮮感了,好聽的歌曲永遠圍繞在主打抒情歌。不過這一首《Cinderella》讓我從新開始注意JJ了。
從以前第一次聽到JJ專輯里的英文歌我就很喜歡。因為他的英文不像一般亞洲華人,聽起來不會奇怪,加上他聲音原本就很有辨識度和磁性,不會讓我抗拒。其實唱爵士或百老匯類型的歌一點也不容易,這首爵士藍調《Cinderella》除了讓JJ發揮了他擅長的轉音,也很成功的讓他唱出歌詞里的浪漫調皮感覺,在華語流行樂壇中唱爵士藍調不錯的印象中只有我喜歡的方大同和曹格,看來JJ也有能力在這類型曲風發展。
詞曲都是JJ一個人包辦,最後當然是要分享這首歌,《Cinderella》

歌詞
It doesn’t impress her that he’s got the best ride
It doesn’t impress her cos she’s seen all the lies
Independent, poised, elegant smile
She is everything and more oh…
Fighter by day, Lover by night
Ooh she’s a Cinderella
But only on the outside
Cos once you find your way inside
You will see she’s just the gullible girl
She’s awfully swell
She does everything well
She moves to the House on the dance floor
While I’m Swingin’ nine to four
And she would go ah ah ah,
While I go la la la la
A sip of a wine
There’s plenty of time
The pleasure is mine
She’s so awfully swell
And she knows me so well
And she’d go singing on the sofa
While I’m strummin my guitar
I’m feelin some jazz tonight
So turn out the lights
Under the stars
There we will lie
Our love goes sky high
There’s our sweet lullaby
She’s awfully swell
She does everything well
She moves to the House on the dance floor
While I’m Swingin’ nine to four
And she would go ah ah ah,
While I go la la la la
A sip of a wine
There’s plenty of time
The pleasure is mine
She’s so awfully swell
And she knows me so well
And she’d go singing on the sofa
While I’m strummin my guitar
I’m feelin some jazz tonight
So turn out the lights
Under the stars
There we will lie
Our love goes sky high
There’s our sweet lullaby
She’s awfully swell
She does everything well
She moves to the House on the dance floor
While I’m Swingin’ nine to four
She would go ah ah ah,
While I go la la la la
A sip of a wine
There’s plenty of time
The pleasure is mine
She’s so awfully swell
And she knows me so well
And she’d go singing on the sofa
While I’m strummin my guitar
I’m feelin some jazz tonight
So turn out the lights
Under the stars
There we will lie
Our love goes sky high
There’s our sweet lullaby
Under the stars
There we will lie
Our love goes sky high
There’s our sweet lullaby
