专辑回顾- “The Movies”
历史畅销专辑 “The Movies”-1998


Initially one of Michael’s biggest selling albums, The Movies, as you might expect, takes well known songs from feature films. Some choices make perfect sense, like ‘Love On The Rocks’ or a strong take on Celine Dion’s ‘My Heart Will Go On’ from Titanic. Others were less obvious, like taking on ‘People Are Strange’, originally by The Doors and later done by Echo & The Bunnymen for The Lost Boys, but Michael nails it.
Using The Full Monty as an excuse to include Donna Summer’s ‘Hot Stuff’ was a great idea as it became a concert favourite. The Blues Brothers medley is fun but not even Michael can come close to Aretha Franklin’s original delivery on ‘Think’, and while covering ‘We Have All The Time In The World’ from the world of 007 suited Michael, it isn’t a patch on the awesome Bond theme medley he did with Alfie Boe on tour years later.
最初是迈克尔最畅销的专辑之一,《The Movies》正如你所期望的那样,选取了来自电影原声带的著名歌曲。有些选择非常合理,比如《Love On The Rocks》或对塞琳·迪翁的《My Heart Will Go On》(出自电影《泰坦尼克号》)的出色演绎。其他一些选择则不那么明显,比如演绎原本由The Doors演唱,后来由Echo & The Bunnymen为电影《失落男孩》演唱的《People Are Strange》,但迈克尔做得很棒。
借《全裸特工》的机会收录唐娜·萨默(Donna Summer)的《Hot Stuff》是一个绝妙的主意,因为这首歌后来成为了演唱会上的经典。蓝调兄弟合唱团(The Blues Brothers)的串烧歌曲很有趣,但即使是迈克尔也难以与阿丽莎·弗兰克林(Aretha Franklin)原版的《Think》相提并论,而在多年后与阿尔菲·博(Alfie Boe)一起巡回演出时,他演唱的《We Have All The Time In The World》虽然适合他,但与他们演绎的令人惊叹的邦德主题曲串烧相比,还差得很远。
