Mickey Gilley與Stand By Me

   在唱片錄製過程中常常有些誤會或不同意見而發生爭執，這都發生於藝人與製作人或音樂指導間，1980年時Mickey Gilley的冠軍曲"Stand By Me"有類似的故事。

錄音時Mickey Gilley在與製作人Jim Ed Norman一同忙了二天後衝出錄音室，Gilley曾經只花三小時就錄好三首歌，此次因和製作人有意見花太長時間而氣得衝了出，製作人Jim Ed Norman後來讓步對後面的錄音甚少干涉，而讓Mickey Gilley完成了Stand By Me"這一首冠軍曲的錄製。

"Stand By Me"這首歌在1980年五月31日進鄉村歌曲排行榜，八月九日獲得冠軍，是Mickey Gilley第22首進鄉村歌曲排行榜的暢銷曲，而這首歌後來也成了John Travolta主演的電影Urban Cowboy「都市牛仔」的插曲，在流行歌曲排行榜獲得22名。

Mickey Gilley 1936年出生於密西西比州Natchez，是著名的搖滾樂手Jerry Lee Lewis的表兄弟，自1968-1989年Mickey Gilley共有46首暢銷曲進鄉村歌曲排行榜，其中17首歌獲得排行榜冠軍，他於德州Pasadena投資的酒店，也在電影「都市牛仔」當中成了主要的場景。

"Stand By Me"最早於19661年由Ben E King推出，獲得過流行歌曲排行榜第四名。

STAND BY ME

(Ben E. King/Jerry Leiber/Mike Stoller)

 

When the night has come

And the land is dark

And the moon is the only light we'll see

No I won't be afraid, no I won't be afraid

Just as long as you stand, stand by me

 

  And darlin', darlin', stand by me, oh now now stand by me

  Stand by me, stand by me

 

If the sky that we look upon

Should tumble and fall

And the mountains should crumble to the sea

I won't cry, I won't cry, no I won't shed a tear

Just as long as you stand, stand by me

 

  And darlin', darlin', stand by me, oh stand by me

  Stand by me, stand by me, stand by me-e, yeah

 

  Whenever you're in trouble won't you stand by me, oh now now stand by me

  Oh stand by me, stand by me, stand by me

 

  Darlin', darlin', stand by me-e, stand by me

  Oh stand by me, stand by me, stand by me
