Artist:Dana Winner
Song:Moonlight Shadow
The last that ever she saw him
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
He passed on worried and warning
Carried away by a moonlight shadow.
Lost in a riddle last saturday night
Far away on the other side.
He was caught in the middle of a desperate fight
And she couldn't find how to push through
The trees that whisper in the evening
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
Sing a song of sorrow and grieving
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
All she saw was a silhouette of a gun
Far away on the other side.
He was shot six times by a man on the run
And she couldn't find how to push through
I stay
I pray
I see you in heaven far away
I stay
I pray
I see you in heaven one day
Four am in the morning
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
I watched your vision forming
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
Star move slowly in a silvery night
Far away on the other side
Will you come to talk to me this night
But she couldn't find how to push through
I stay
I pray
See you in heaven far away
I stay
I pray
See you in heaven far away
Far away on the other side.
Caught in the middle of a hundred and five
The night was heavy but the air was alive
She couldn't find how to push through
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
Far away on the other side.

这首歌的原唱是Maggie Reilly ,如今包括原版已经多达13个版本。Dana Winner翻唱的moonlight shadow是比较有代表性的。这个版本充满欧陆民谣风,节奏由慢而快,开始的时候是很柔和舒服,当渐渐步入高潮时,节奏就开始轻快,轻快的节奏会让人随着节奏而翩翩起舞。dana winner的声线很适合moonlight shadow,因为很甜美柔和,很适合这首歌要代表的寓境。
这首歌最初是英国的Mike Oldfield创作的,很多网上的资料都说这首歌是纪念被枪杀的John Lennon。但看了原版的MTV之后,我却觉得这首歌应该和John Lennon的被刺并没有直接联系,似乎男主角死于一场决斗中,这倒象是普希金,但不知道普希金的妻子娜达丽亚会不会这样来怀念他。查了一下资料,曾经有国外的歌迷透露,Oldfield说起这首歌的灵感来源于Tony Curtis主演的电影Houdini。霍迪尼传(Houdini)是美国派拉蒙公司于1953年7月2日上映的电影,故事梗概如下:在举世闻名的幻觉大师哈利胡迪尼逝世十年后,他的遗孀贝丝找上一位灵媒,来为她召唤亡夫的鬼魂,之后便以倒叙手法回顾胡迪尼传奇的一生。但我觉得创作这首歌的才华出众但却忧郁无比的Mike Oldfield未必有所特指,或许没必要多去考证了,只需要静静溶入歌中空灵纯净的月光中即可。
