Luther Vandross的歌曲《Dance With My Father》想必大家都熟悉，今天推荐的是他的专辑《Dance With My Father》中的另外一首单曲《If I Didn't Know Better》，歌曲和谐的节奏，嗓音，让R&B后生们领教了这位老将的实力。








   Luther Vandross于1951年4月20日出生于美国纽约最北部的Bronx区，作为最伟大的黑人男歌手之一，拥有超过两千万张的唱片销售记录，被他富有魔力的嗓音所征服的听众数以亿计。在R&B音乐这个年轻人的世界里，Luther Vandross称得上是大器晚成，直到他三十岁时才发行了第一张专辑《Never Too Much》，之后便一发不可收，之后的十三张专辑都达到了白金销量，被称为是80年代R&B音乐三巨头之一，另两人是鼎鼎大名的Stevie Wonder和Michael Jackson。







　　
     Luther Vandross不仅是一名出色而成功的歌手，而且他还是一名成功的词曲作者和唱片制作人，他参与了Stevie Wonder，Lionel Richie，Whitney Houston, Aretha Franklin, Dionne Warwick和Cheryl Lynn等著名歌星专辑的录制，并与Mariah Carey等歌星有合作。在第33，34，39届格莱美奖中三次获得最佳R&B男歌手奖，歌曲《Power Of Love/Love Power》还获得了第34届格莱美最佳R&B歌曲奖。





I think sometimes I can read your mind
When you make things up I can tell you lie
I see the things that your man can’t see
And I wonder what kind of man is he
The one who you say is your lover
Who you insist takes care of you under the covers
And who is there for you and loves you like no other
When you kiss and tell me that you love me like a brother
[CHORUS]
If I didn’t know better
I’d think that you were mine
you’re with me all the time
If I didn’t know better
I’d swear we’re more than friends
you’re touching me again
If I didn’t know better
I’d think we were in love
Girl, do you wanna tell me something
Oh, oh, oh
I could be wrong about the things you say
But I don’t rub up on my friends that way
You tell me that you’ve always been a flirt
But if it goes wrong, I could get hurt
But no, you insist it’s harmless playin’
It’s just a part of who you are
that it’s just your nature
And that it’s fine
You know I’m a friend, it’s really nothing
You say that I’m just like a…
That I’m just like a brother
[CHORUS]
My idea of a friend is when you
Do a lotta things together and have a lotta fun
But my definition of love is different
You touch and hold each other
And you only want to be alone clinging to each other
Like you and he should be, but like you and I are
Well, I know it sounds crazy but…
