今天介紹一首 Samantha Sang 1978年獲得過 Cash Box錢櫃雜誌排行榜冠軍，Billboard Hot 100 排行榜第3名.充滿 Bee Gees風味的動聽抒情歌曲〈Emotion〉 。
「有一件事我必須向那些只知道我與 Barry Gibb及其兄弟關係的人澄清——我不是Bee Gees 樂團的粉絲，」 Samantha Sang 向《Vihe》雜誌的Kit Lachatte說道，「我一生中大部分時間都在表演。我的父母都是表演者，我喜歡與Bee Gees樂團合作。我喜歡演唱他們的歌曲。他們一直希望我能成功。而這意味著能夠自立自強。 」
澳洲歌手 Samantha Sang 在16歲遇到 Barry Gibb 之前，就已經是一位經驗豐富的歌手了。她八歲時就以 Cheryl Gray 的藝名在電台演唱，也曾與歌喉動人的父母同台演出。Gibb建議她錄製一些他們正在創作的歌曲。Samantha錄製了Gibb的〈Don't Let It Happen Again〉，但反應平平。同年，她在美國發行了一兩首單曲，但此後，直到 〈Emotion〉發行之前，美國樂迷再也沒有聽過她的其他音樂作品。
當時Bee Gees樂團憑藉其充滿白人風格的迪斯可舞曲風靡一時，Samantha 再次找到Barry Gibb，希望他能給她另一首歌。不到一個小時， Gibb兄弟 Robin和 Barry 就創作了一首融合了Bee Gees 樂團獨特魅力的歌曲。在〈Emotion〉這首歌裡，Samantha 和Barry 的嗓音完美融合，讓人根本無法分辨究竟是誰在深情吟唱。有了Gibb的伴唱，Sang 的歌聲聽起來就像一位充滿活力的 Bee Gees 樂團成員。
Samantha Sang 後來的作品〈You Keep Me Dancing〉（1978年#56）和〈In The Midnight Hour〉（1979年#88）都沒有Barry的參與，Sang之後發行的其他單曲也都沒有。專輯《Emotion》銷量不錯，但Sang此後再也沒有登上排行榜。
Samantha Sang feat Bee Gees - Emotion (Remastered Extended Version)
歌迷:這首歌的魅力在於Samantha 的嗓音與Barry Gibb的嗓音完美契合。我聽過一些只有比吉斯樂團成員演唱的版本，雖然也不錯，但薩曼莎的加入簡直令人驚艷。
Emotion
作詞/作曲：Robin Hugh Gibb / Barry Alan Gibb
It's over and done
But the heartache lives on inside, oh
And who is the one you're clingin' to
Instead of me tonight?
And where are you now
Now that I need you?
Tears on my pillow
Wherever you go
I cry me a river
That leads to your ocean
But you never see me fall apart
In the words of a broken heart
It's just emotion that's taken me over
Tied up in
sorrow, lost in my soul
But if you don't come back
Come home to me, darling
You know that there'll be
Nobody left in this world to hold me tight
Nobody left in this world to kiss good night
Good
night, good night, good night
Good night
I'm there at your side
I'm part of all the things you are, ah
But you got a part of someone else
You go to find your shining star
And where are you now
Now that I need you
Tears on my pillow
Wherever you go
I cry me a river
That leads to your ocean
You never see me fall apart
In the words of a broken heart
It's just emotion that's taken me over
Tied up in sorrow,
lost in my soul
But if you don't come back
Come home to me, darling
You know that there'll be
Nobody left in this world to hold me tight
Nobody left in this world to kiss good night
Good
night
And where are you now
Now that I need you?
Tears on my pillow
Wherever you go
I cry me a river
That leads to your ocean
You never see me fall apart
In the words of a broken heart
It's just emotion that's taken me over
Tied up in sorrow,
lost in my soul
But if you don't come back
Come home to me, darling
You know that there'll be
Nobody left in this world to hold me tight
Nobody left in this world to kiss good night
Good
night, good night, good night
In the words of a broken heart
It's just emotion that's taken me over
Tied up in sorrow, lost in my soul
But if you don't come back
Come home to me, darling
