前幾天突然聽到Eric Clapton的Change the world，莫名舒心。
我以前一直以為那是Eric Clapton寫的歌，事實上詞曲作曲另有他人，是Gordon Kennedy, Tommy Sims和Wayne Kirkpatrick。他們三人是分別工作再整合完成這首歌，錄了demo帶，到處找人來錄音。
先是被電影《第三類奇蹟》（Phenomenon)選入原聲帶，後來Eric Clapton聽到錄音，覺得這首歌有Paul McCartney的調調，又有點黑人節奏藍調的氛圍，所以找了Babyface合作。
這首1996/1997的作品算是「老歌」，當時在Billboard流行榜登頂13週，並獲得葛萊美年度最佳歌曲。我也買了它一片單曲CD。
現在聽到還是感覺清爽而又溫暖。
（Cha—n～～ge the world～副歌這裡跟著唱時都會有一種以為自己會唱假音和R&B的錯覺......orz)
歌詞：
If I could reach the stars
I'd pull one down for you
Shine it on my heart
So you could see the truth
That this love I have inside
Is everything it seems
But for now I find
It's only in my dreams
That I can
Change the world
I would be the sunlight in your universe
You would think my love was really something good
Baby if I could
Change the world
If I could be king
Even for a day
I'd take you as my queen
I'd have it no other way
And our love would rule
In this kingdom that we had made
'til then i'll be a fool
Wishing for a day
That I can
Change the world
I would be the sunlight in your universe
You would think my love was really something good
Baby if I could
Change the world
