小學上學的路途,Becky爸總會放著同樣的一捲錄音帶,

車內響起“Back in the summer of sixty-nine, oh...”

這首歌聽到尾聲我也差不多要下車了,

然後待到放學時刻一坐上車又是這首歌,就這樣伴著我的童年無線播放

除了EaglesBruce Springsteen,我的偶像大概就是Bryan Adams了,

他的聲線沙啞卻宏亮,是相當震懾人心的歌聲,

去年他在都柏林Ed Sheeran的演唱會上彼此見面了,

數月之後他將這首歌的副歌給了Ed,問他有沒有興趣合作,

於是這首歌就這麼誕生了。

年近60的他聲音卻絲毫沒有改變真的是很不可思議啊~

歌詞寫的是他本人的故事,相當觸動人心。

Always had dreams bigger than your brother, you know it
