http://tinyurl.com/257pw5y Reviews: Hold My Hand There won't be any controversy about the vocals on this one. The only question is how long until it scales the charts (if word of mouth is any indication, minutes after its midnight premier it was already trending #1 on Twitter around the world). "Hold My Hand" is a simple, but powerful song that embodies so much of what fans loved about Michael Jackson. Like U2's "One" it is a "love song" that expands outward, making the personal something more profound and universal. With its catchy chorus and majestic crescendo it has all the makings of a big hit (perhaps Jackson's first #1 in the U.S. since "You Are Not Alone" in 1995). 關於這首歌的歌聲真假 沒有爭議 唯一的問題是這首歌甚麼時候才會登上排行榜 (如果說出口的事情是一個指標 在午夜首發後這已經是Twitter關鍵熱門字的第一) Hold My Hand是首簡單但卻很有力量的歌 有很多MJ歌迷喜愛的元素 就像U2的One 這是一首充滿愛的歌 並且由個人向外擴展到全世界 他有非常動人的旋律 這將使這首歌 會成為熱門歌曲 (或許是麥可在95年you are not alone之後的全美冠軍單曲) (這個評論人還真是看好 和有信心阿XD) Critics will undoubtedly point to the song's excessive flourishes and sentimentalism. Clearly, in his updated production, Akon was aiming bigger than the 2008 version that leaked online. It works, however, among other reasons, because of the context. This is a catharsis song for many listeners. And that's what the soaring gospel-infused ending provides. There will always be a place (and need) for songs that bring people together, reminding us to love, bridge divides and connect. 毫無疑問評論會指出這首歌感情太多了 很顯然在阿肯的最後完成版 他比08年的版本所 設定的目標還要更大 另一方面也有其他原因 因為歌詞內容 這是一首宣導的歌曲 而這也 是這首歌結尾所帶給你的感覺 總是會有一首歌會帶領所有人團結 提醒我們愛 讓我們在分 列中再次團結起來 Yet for all its lavishness and grandiosity, there are some nice subtle touches as well. The intro is a variation of Pachelbel's Canon in D Major (Jackson was an avid lover of classical music). Jackson's vocal is understated, but effective, capturing a combination of joy, yearning, and sadness. The opening lyric ("This life don't last forever...") is a poignant reminder of the transience of life. 是的這首歌或許有些太繁複奢華了 但是卻有很多很棒的小細節 開頭的帕海貝爾D大調卡農 的變奏 (麥可是古典樂的愛好者) 麥可的歌聲沒有這麼顯著 但卻非常有影響力的抓住了 所有愉快 懷念 和感傷的綜合情緒 開頭的歌詞提醒了大家生命轉瞬間的感傷 If a song like this can't knock off the pop-lite of Kesha and Katy Perry it says far more about the state of pop music than Michael Jackson. "Hold My Hand" isn't "Man in the Mirror," but it's a nice consolation gift to fill the void of his absence. 如果像這樣的歌還不能打敗現在流行歌壇的Ke$ha和Katy Perry等人 我們就知道當今流行 樂壇的現狀已沒啥好說了 Hold My Hand不是鏡中人 但是一首很好安撫人的禮物來填補 MJ已經不在的空洞 Listen to "Hold My Hand" at michaeljackson.com. Jackson's first posthumous album, Michael, will be released December 14, 2010. Joe Vogel is the author of three books, including the forthcoming Man in the Music: The Creative Life and Work of Michael Jackson (Sterling 2011). -- In a world filled with hate, we must still dare to hope. In a world filled with anger, we must still dare to comfort. In a world filled with despair, we must still dare to dream. In a world filled with distrust, we must still dare to believe. ~~~~By Michael Jackson --
