首先介紹一下這首歌,「ARTHUR’S THEME(BEST THAT YOU CAN DO)」是一首很出名的歐美情歌,原唱是Christopher Cross (美國音樂人歌手), 也是1981年一齣幽默電影『Arthur』的主題曲。原版的編曲就是美國西岸AOR風格,聽起來可能會跟日本的AOR有點差別呢,只怪日本把AOR音樂定義得太廣了。
Composer: Christopher Cross, Burt Bacharach, Carole Bayer Sager, Peter Allen
Arranger: 杉山洋介, Hideaki Hori
Once in your life you'll find her
Someone who turns your heart around
And next thing you know
You're closin' down the town
Wake up and she's still with you
Even though you left her way across town
You're wonderin' to yourself
Hey what've I found
[Chorus]
When you get caught between the moon and New York City
I know it's crazy but it's true
If you get caught between the moon and New York City
The best that you can do (the best that you can do)
The best that you can do is fall in love
Arthur he does what he pleases
All of his life his master's toys
And deep in his heart
He's just he's just a boy
Livin' his life one day at a time
He's showing himself a really good time
He's laughin' about the way
They want him to be
