I've Never Been To me这首歌早在1977即由美国女歌手夏琳(Charlene)灌唱,其后也曾经数次重录,或许是发行公司财力不够。宣传无门,问世没有多久就销声匿迹。终于本歌在1982年被一位电台DJ发掘,在自己的节目中密集的播放,从而老曲新红,一年后拿下全美排行榜第三和英国第一的好成绩。但是夏琳(Charlene)本人的星途却远非一帆风顺,另外唱了一些歌都反响平平,1980年代中期就彻底消失歌坛了。不过这首未曾有自我(I've Never Been to Me)却一直传唱至今,成了夏琳唯一的一首畅销曲。

在动人得旋律下,这首歌有着相当发人深省得内容。歌曲描述了一个历尽沧桑的女人,看见另外一个已婚妇女在悲叹自己的命运,忍不住提出一些忠告。她曾经有过放浪形骸的过往,走遍整个世界,凭着自己的青春美貌,享受着犹如天堂一般的快乐时光,王公贵族甚至神职人员都曾是她的入幕之宾,但是到头来,她却只落得一场空,不但走投无路,连个肯友善相待得人都没有。天堂是什么?那只是人们用来欺骗自己的幻想,她劝那位彷徨得妇女,好好珍惜自己拥有得,怀抱中得宝宝,还有那个虽然有时会吵架、但真心爱她得男人,才是真正珍贵得,那才是爱。或许她到过天堂,但是她从未找到过自我,请不要重蹈她的覆辙。

I've Never Been To me
byCharlene
Hey lady, you lady, cursing at your life
You’re a discontented mother and a regimented wife
I’ve no doubt you dream about the things you’ll never do
But, I wish someone had talked to me
Like I wanna talk to you…..
Oh, I’ve been to Georgia and California and anywhere I could run
I took the hand of a preacher man and we made love in the sun
But I ran out of places and friendly faces because I had to be free
I’ve been to paradise but I’ve never been to me
Please lady, please lady, don’t just walk away
’Cause I have this need to tell you why I’m all alone today
I can see so much of me still living in your eyes
Won’t you share a part of a weary heart that has lived million lies….
Oh, I’ve been to Nice and the Isle of Greece
while I’ve sipped champagne on a yacht
I’ve moved like Harlow in Monte Carlo and showed ’em what I’ve got
I’ve been undressed by kings and I’ve seen some things
that a woman ain’t supposed to see
I’ve been to paradise, but I’ve never been to me
(口白)
Hey, you know what paradise is?
It’s a lie, a fantasy we create about
people and places as we’d like them to be
But you know what truth is?
It’s that little baby you’re holding,
it’s that man you fought with this morning
The same one you’re going to make love with tonight
That’s truth, that’s love……
Sometimes I’ve been to crying for unborn children
that might have made me complete
But I took the sweet life,
I never knew I’d be bitter from the sweet
I’ve spent my life exploring the subtle whoring
that costs too much to be free
Hey lady……
I’ve been to paradise, (I’ve been to paradise)
But I’ve never been to me
(I’ve been to Georgia and California,
and anywhere I could run)
I’ve been to paradise, never been to me
(I’ve been to Neice and the isle of Greece
while I’ve sipped champagne on a yacht)
I’ve been to paradise, never been to me
(I’ve been to cryin’ for unborn children
that might have made me complete)
I’ve been to paradise, never been to me
(I’ve been to Georgia and California,
and anywhere I could run)
I’ve been to paradise, never been to me
"To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty; to find the best in others; to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded."--- Ralph Waldo Emerson
无歌词的吟唱版,没有歌词对旋律的限制,人声已成为一种极富情感的乐器,优雅而感性,可以尽情地从歌者的吟唱里体味许多无言的感触,自由地沉醉在飘渺的音乐之中。一曲绝美天籁之音飘过,悠悠的女声吟唱,听起来格外舒适。很美的旋律,没有歌词至始至终只有一个女声在轻轻哼唱,有一点温暖有一点忧伤。好像初秋的细雨中,一杯幽香的咖啡,仿佛风里轻轻飘下的花瓣。这样的旋律和声音也许只适合在深夜独自倾听
