  有些歌曲在特定的场合才能显示其魅力,《圣火》便是这样一首歌曲。在2000年悉尼奥运会前,这首歌便被推出,但却反应平平,而来到灯火辉煌、亿人瞩目的悉尼奥运会开幕式现场之后,它在一刹那拥有了一种博大深远的气质。


  许多歌迷可能会更熟悉凯莉.米洛,但澳洲人更喜爱蒂娜.艾莲娜。在澳洲,平均每十人就拥有她的专辑,所以灵魂歌手蒂娜能在开幕式唱主题曲,而流行歌手凯莉只能在闭幕式上作嘉宾演唱。


  约翰.夫曼是一位除了澳大利亚人以外,很少为人所知的音乐家。有别于以往的国际化制作,这届奥运会歌曲几乎全由本国歌手创作。


  歌曲从前奏开始就采用交响乐式的伴奏,以管弦乐、电钢琴与爵士鼓为基础,营造出一种大气磅礴的音乐氛围。作为奥运会的主题歌,它也采用了稳妥并接近民众听觉习惯的作曲方式。主歌部分一直是稳步推进,以轻交响式的伴奏,辅以并不太突出的男声合唱为底色,一直推进到第二段。男女的群体和声在一瞬间变成了副歌最重要的伴奏,人声就完成了和弦的几个组成音,并且把男女声音不同的特点运用到了不同的音高上。在骤然转变的瞬间,取得了一种厚积薄发般的效果,甚至在某一两个小节的旋律与和弦上给人一种并非相同歌曲的错觉,然后迅速回到原歌的调式上,推行着激情与热情。这是一首对主题阐述得很明确而且成功的歌曲,但是除此成功之外,其它各处则因中规中矩而略显平庸。



《The Flame》歌词欣赏:

词曲:约翰.夫曼

演唱:蒂娜.艾莲娜


Is this the hope of the world in my hands

Ill take this moment, to be all that I can

Look to you to see the future

Stronger and free


Chorus


Today we will show who we are

We are the earth

and were together again

My friends, will you show us the way

We travel on, guided by the flame

The fire within makes you reach out to the goal

You redefine the best, by stretching the soul

A world in need of inspiration

And looks to you and me


Repeat chorus


Since ancient times weve come together

in the light of the flame

To stand for all the world to see

people reaching out to greatness

And all we can be

Today we will show who we are

we are the earth


together again


Today you will show who you are

the best on earth,

And you bring the world together again

My friends, you have shown us the way

look to your heart

You will find the flame
