Xanadu電影(6) – 凝在當下Suspened in Time

故事漸去到尾聲，Kira會被父親宙斯召回，電影就以一個全黑的異度空間場景讓Olivia獨唱Suspended in Time，表達她對Sonny難捨難離，希望宙斯可以讓時光凝在當下的感受。

這歌Olivia唱得溫婉可憐，旋律也極其優美。即便如此，電影也確是處理得單調了點。所以音樂劇中，通常安排Kira乘坐星座中的「飛馬座」(Pegasus)那匹天馬返回天界，也加插了Danny告訴Sonny他年青時曾經和上次下凡的Kira失之交臂，遺憾至今，勸勉Sonny不要錯過的對答。

今次所選的是奧莉花妞頓莊在原裝電影中的演出片段，再接上來自百老匯上演的版本：

Wasted the time away

Holding our love at bay
Now I can't last a day without you
Your smile is a thrill to see
Eyes hold me tenderly
They'll shine in my memory forever

[ But how can our love succeed

A miracle is what we need
And so I appeal to you
To keep me suspended in time with you
Don't let this moment die
I get a feeling when I'm with you
None of the rules apply
But I know for certain
Goodbye is a crime
So love if you need me
Suspend me in time ]  X 2
