《Wait 'til You Hear From Me》是一首反毒品歌曲,Sarah在歌曲开始的独白部分就表明这是为情同姐妹的好友而唱,表达了对好朋友Maria的思念。Maria因染上了毒瘾无法自拔,从而断送了大好的前程与生命。
回想起两人过去深厚的感情,她无比的悲伤。虽然歌曲的节奏比较快,但还是掩饰不住歌者内心的伤痛与遗憾。我想这首歌不仅仅是表达对Maria的思念,同时也告诫世人:生命是脆弱的,当灾难来临,不得不告别亲人朋友的时候,再多的后悔和留恋都于事无补!
Sarah Connor在国内市场广为流传的歌大概是下面三首:
1、Just one last dance (其中尤以SC和前夫MarcTerenzi的现场合唱为人津津乐道)
2、living to love you
3、love to be loved by you 婚礼现场前夫Marc Terenzi所唱
广为人知的《Just one last dance》现场男女对唱版是04年的comet颁奖典礼,两人是演唱嘉宾。最后,Sarah 和Marc 08年年底离婚,到10年2月份两人才正式签订离婚协议。自离婚后Sarah再也没在公开场合再演绎这首歌,个中原因,尽在不言中吧。
Sarah Connor作为德国蓝调天后,虽然大部分的歌都是英文的,但百听不厌的真的很多。
