懷念MJ拾：You Are Not Alone

You Are Not Alone.
邁克歌唱演藝事業的其中一首最著名的代表作，也可說是邁克眾多歌曲中其中一首最受人喜愛的歌曲。

除此之外，這首歌在邁克的事業當中也是一個非常重要的注腳。
這首在1995年發行的單曲，是美國Billboard排行榜有史以來第一首，也是唯一一首一上榜就奪下榜首的歌曲。
打破了之前由邁克自己所保持的記錄即一上榜就獲得第五名的Scream/Childhood。
另外，這首歌也是邁克歌唱生涯中，最后一首能夠登上“壁報”排行榜榜首的單曲（獲建力士世界紀錄認證）...

因此，這首個，不但代表了邁克演藝事業的最高峰，也代表著邁克的事業由極盛已漸漸走向衰落...

You Are Not Alone，是一首R&B曲風的歌曲。
當時的樂壇，還未興起節奏藍調的風潮，而MJ正是引領R&B潮流的其中一位歌手。
這表現出了邁克對音樂極高的敏感度。

這首歌在講述的，其實就是邁克的生活。
與妻子（Lisa Mary Presley）的恩愛、不公平的待遇、狗仔隊無日無夜的追蹤、努力不懈的獨自一人練舞等等。
這首個歌想要表達的訊息就是--愛與孤獨。

我們的流行曲之王，舞蹈之王，其實心里是非常非常空虛及孤獨的！
邁克每一天都在面對著不利于他的謠言、抨擊、抹黑。
說了上千遍上萬遍的謊話，變得比事實還要真實。

這些謊言，為邁克造成了極大的壓力，壓得他喘不過氣，壓得他就快活不下去....
還好在他心中，一直都存在著愛。
而他，就是靠著這一份愛，而繼續生存下去....

這就是邁克。
獨自一個人的邁克...

這首歌，完完全全反映了MJ的生活...

You Are Not Alone

Another day has gone
I'm still all alone
How could this be
You're not here with me
You never said goodbye
Someone tell me why
Did you have to go
And leave my world so cold

Everyday I sit and ask myself
How did love slip away
Something whispers in my ear and says
That you are not alone
For I am here with you
Though you're far away
I am here to stay

But you are not alone
For I am here with you
Though we're far apart
You're always in my heart
But you are not alone

'Lone, 'lone
Why, 'lone

Just the other night
I thought I heard you cry
Asking me to come
And hold you in my arms
I can hear your prayers
Your burdens I will bear
But first I need your hand
Then forever can begin

Everyday I sit and ask myself
How did love slip away
Something whispers in my ear and says
That you are not alone
For I am here with you
Though you're far away
I am here to stay

For you are not alone
For I am here with you
Though we're far apart
You're always in my heart
For you are not alone

Whisper three words and I'll come runnin'
And girl you know that I'll be there
I'll be there

You are not alone
For I am here with you
Though you're far away
I am here to stay
For you are not alone
For I am here with you
Though we're far apart
You're always in my heart

For you are not alone
For I am here with you
Though you're far away
I am here to stay

For you are not alone
For I am here with you
Though we're far apart
You're always in my heart

For you are not alone...
