294的鼓 239站台

2017，美村女歌手Rhonda Vincent男歌手Daryle Singletary合了一《American Grandstand》，中的歌曲乎都是翻唱之前一些知名歌手男女唱的典歌曲，像是George Jones & Tammy Wynette的《One》、Loretta Lyne & Conway Twitty的《After The Fire Is Gone》及Merle Haggard & Bonnie Owens的《Slowly But Surely》等，於Rhonda Vincent自己的歌只有首，其中之一即同名的《American Grandstand》。得不在告示牌草 ( Bluegrass ) 排行榜得了第一。

Rhonda Vincent於幼年即加了家庭The Sally Mountain Show，上世的70、80年代，始在草音流派中取得成功，被媒多次以「Queen of Bluegrass」呼她。Daryle Singletary曾Rhonda同唱片公司而相，年、音及成就，均都差了Rhonda一些，2017Rhonda的合唱，使得其在的名更向上升了一些，不幸的是在次年 ( 2018 )，Daryle Singletary意外的在家中世，死因未透露，享年46。

看是一首男女分手的歌曲，人也像是「表演者」，不太解的是何用的字是坐的Grandstand ( 看台 ) 而非表演者的Stage ( 舞台 )？或想表的是在目睽睽下的堪分手。

We packed it up to say goodby,
so many questions I wonder why,
this great display to show the world whose right or wrong.
It’s not enough for me to go.
Let’s take our vows and end the show
with our american grandstand goodbye.

Our selfish, angry, hateful ways,
we shared the story and set the stage
for the performance to play the fool you love so well.
The final show is advertised,
& both our names, there up in lights
with our American Grandstand goodbye.

The lights are up, the music’s down,
the lines are drawn, I’m just your clown.
My tears are real. You crushed my heart into the ground.

Our love is gone. its clear to see.
We’re here to show our friends that leave
with our American Grandstand goodbye.

Our selfish, angry, hateful ways
prepare the story and set the stage
for the performance to play a fool you love so well.
The final show is advertised.
Both our names, they’re up in lights
for our American Grandstand goodbye,

our American Grandstand goodbye. Goodbye.
