子欲舞而亲不在 ------ 一首催人泪下的蓝调（ R& B ） To Dance With My Father Again
因了写嘻哈音乐题材的文章，连日来嘻哈，蓝调音乐不绝于耳。本来咱们听西洋歌曲就是重曲调轻歌词，何况这些嘻哈歌手都刻意用口齿不清的哈莱姆英语念白说唱，听得我云山雾罩。暗自寻思多半离不开性爱，暴力，毒品和叛逆的内容，此时不懂胜听懂。
Back when I was a child
before life removed all the innocence
my father would lift me high
and dance with my mother and me and then
spin me around till I fell asleep
then up the stairs he would carry me
and I knew for sure, I was loved
If I could get
another chance
another walk
another dance with him
I'd play a song that would never ever end
how I'd love love love
to dance with my father again
oooo when I and my mother would disagee
to get my way I would run from her to him
he'd make me laugh just to comfort me yeah yeah
then finally make me do just what my momma said
later that night when I was asleep
he left a dollar under my sheet
never dreamed that he would be gone from me
If I could steal one final glance,
one final step
one final dance with him
I'd play a song that would never ever end
cause I'd love, love, love, to dance with my father again
这一段回忆了一个慈父如何巧妙地教育孩子听妈妈的话。没有喝斥，也不用说教，让孩子心服口服。许多中国家庭的父母，对孩子给予了太多的期许，所以当孩子不听话或者成绩稍不如人意时，恨铁不成钢的复杂心情跃然脸上，总爱把自己的喜好和是非判断强加于孩子身上，反而激起了孩子的逆反情绪，造成剑拔弩张的紧张局面。我们能否从这段歌声里得到某种启发呢？
sometimes I'd listen outside her door
and I hear how my mother cried for him
I'd pray for her even more than me
I'd pray for her even more than me
I know I'm praying
for much to much
but could you send back
the only man she loved
I know you don't do it usually
but dear lord she's dying
to dance with my father again
every night I fall asleep
and this is all I ever dream
