西洋乐坛以“The power of love”为歌名,并当作主打歌的还真不少。这些相同歌名的歌中,以Jennifer Rush的这首“爱的力量”最为经典!!

上世纪的1986年的美国《时代》周刊曾刊登过一篇介绍对本国音乐作出贡献的新秀的文章,当时把惠特尼·休斯敦、珍妮佛·拉什、亚洲的邓丽君、和张蔷等一起评为“年度全球最受欢迎女歌手”。

80年代后出生的青年,也许只是听过Celion Dion(席琳迪翁)演唱的这首“The power of love”,殊不知20多年前它就由Jennifer Rush唱红天下了。

80年代摇滚女将Jennifer Rush(珍妮佛·拉什),1960年生于美国纽约,童年大部分时间是在德国度过的。从70年代末开始进入流行乐坛,1979年发行了她的首张专辑“海蒂斯特恩”,1982年移居欧洲,作为主要发展的地方,在那里他发行了大量的优秀歌曲,诸如'Into My Dreams,' 'Come Give Me Your Hand,' '25 Lovers,' 和 'Ring of Ice.' 等等。

1984写下了这首“The power of love”爱的力量,并亲自演唱,在这之后的1985年,Air Supply翻唱了这首歌,1986年初,Jennifer Rush的原唱版本正式登陆,1987年,美国当红女歌手 Laura Branigan(罗拉 布兰尼根) 再次翻唱,1994年,声誉日隆的新天后 Celion Dion(席琳迪翁) 再次灌录这首曲子,而且把它唱上了四周冠军宝座,美国告示排行榜的冠军曲。

时至今日,这首享誉全球的经典情歌。销售量已超过百万。而且被记录在英格兰的吉尼斯世界纪录大全--英国音乐历史上女性艺人最畅销的单曲。

While virtually unknown in the U.S., pop singer Jennifer Rush achieved superstar status as an expatriate in Europe, selling millions of records and releasing a string of hit singles notable for their booming, dance-rock arrangements and Rush's powerful voice. Born Heidi Stern in New York City, Rush's father was an opera singer and her mother was a pianist. At the age of nine, she moved to Germany with her family, returning in her teens to the States. In 1982, she returned to Germany with her father to pursue a singing career, signing a deal with CBS/Columbia. Changing her name to Jennifer Rush, she released a series of songs that made her a star in Europe, including "Into My Dreams," "Come Give Me Your Hand," "25 Lovers," and "Ring of Ice." In 1985, Rush scored a massive European hit with "The Power of Love," which became one of the longest-running chart-toppers in U.K. history. The song, which she also co-wrote, was packaged with several of her other European hits for her U.S. debut Jennifer Rush. Released as a single, "The Power of Love" failed to duplicate its success upon its stateside release, only reaching number 57. Instead, versions of the song by Laura Branigan and Celine Dion hit the American Top 40 (the latter hitting number one for a month in 1994). It wasn't until her third U.S. release, Heart Over Mind, that Rush reached the Top 40 as an artist with her duet with Elton John, "Flames of Paradise," reaching number 37 in 1987. She continued to retain a large European following throughout the rest of the '80s and '90s, collaborating with writers such as Desmond Child and Diane Warren and performing with high-profile acts like Michael Bolton and Placido Domingo. Despite selling millions of albums abroad, most of her albums have not been released in the U.S.
