❦吃喝玩樂＆養兒育女の跪婦生活❦

有些歌曲總讓人喜愛得聽了又聽，每個人心中總有那麼一首歌，可以觸動、鼓舞氣勢，洗滌、柔化心靈，舒緩、解放情緒的歌曲，而我，心中可是有好些這樣的歌曲。

怎麼會突然說到歌曲哩？最近許多候選人的後援會成立，造勢活動開始啟動，全都是因為下各月底的9合一選舉，不知道大家的居住地是怎麼樣的情況，就美岱子家附近的市議員選舉，每年總會有人打著「親子」策略，這時「快樂天堂」便是搭襯的曲目，我家阿乖和云云最近睡覺也常聽我唱著，儼然成了催眠曲，而我想提起的卻是這首歷久彌新的大愛創作歌曲～We Are the Wold

以下引用維基百科：

《四海一家》（英語：We Are the World，又譯為天下一家），是一首1985年時的慈善歌曲，由麥可·傑克森和萊諾·李奇共同譜寫，昆西·瓊斯負責製作，由美國45位歌星聯合演唱，旨在聲援向非洲饑民捐款的大型慈善活動「美國援非」（USA for Africa），包括哈里·貝拉方特、蒂娜·透納、黛安娜·羅斯、肯尼·洛傑斯、史提夫·汪達等當時知名度非常高的歌手都有參與這首歌曲的演唱。

這首當時為了非洲饑民拋磚引玉的一首歌曲，到現在還是不斷的被人傳唱，25年後，為海地大地震的災民募捐又重新翻唱We Are the Wold這首歌，加了許多音樂元素，也多了與地震相關的歌詞，但我既是念舊的人，還是比較喜愛1985年版的原創，去年底Next Star選秀節目有諸多小朋友聯手合唱了這曲子，那氣勢可是一點也不輸大人，歌聲清新嘹亮

我和孩子在老爺的車上聽了這首歌，阿乖跟著哼唱We are the World  We are the children...，因為喜愛，反覆聽了好幾回，回到家後，We Are the Wold依舊在我心中迴盪，就和大家一起分享嘍~ 
 

(1985年原創版)

There comes a time
When we hear a certain calls
when the world,most come together as one
there are people dying
oh and it's time to lend a hand to life.
the greatest gift of all

We can't go on pretending day by day
that someone , somewhere will soon make a change
we're all a part of God's great big family
and the truth you know love is all we need

We are the World
We are the children
We are the ones who make a brighter day
so let's start giving
There's a choice we're making
We're saving our own lives
It's true, we'll make a better day
Just you and me

well send them your heart
so they know that someone cares
and their lives will be stronger and free
as God has shown us
by turning stone to bread
and so we all must lend a helping hand

We are the World
We are the children
We are the ones who make a brighter day
so let's start giving
There's a choice we're making
we're saving our own lives
it's true, we'll make a better day
Just you and me

when you're down and out
there seems no hope at all
but if you just believe
there's no way we can fall
woo woo woo woo let's realize
that a change can only come
when we stand together as one

we are the world
we are the children
We are the ones who make a brighter day
so let's start giving
There's a choice we're making

we're saving our own lives
It's true, we'll make a better day
Just you and me

We are the children
We are the ones who make a brighter day

Just You and Me

We are the World

We are the ones who make a brighter day
so let's start giving
