痴迷麦哈顿

The Manhattans

这队四人合唱组1972年组队，活跃歌坛超过30年，目前的成员为Tim Hauser、Janis Siegel、Alan Paul 及Cheryl Bentyne（78年加入，替代了原本的Laurel Masse）。

四人各自努力探索不同的歌唱和表现方式，经常把世俗音乐(world music)的节奏与华彩跟爵士乐融合起来，运用vocalese的和声技巧去演绎爵士经典，为歌唱艺术开拓了新领域，一新乐迷的耳目。

实际上，四人组的每一个成员都具备自立门户的条件和能力，但是，他们选择共同出现在舞台上，四把歌声难分彼此，水乳交融，让乐迷陶醉赞叹不已。

麦哈顿的歌曲演唱，肯定是我们人生路上的一道风景线！

THE MANHATTAN 《Let's Just Kiss and Say Good Bye》

This has got to be the saddest day of my life.
I called you here today for a bit of bad news.
I wouldn't be able to see you anymore
Because of my obligation,
and the ties that you have.

We've been meeting here everyday,
And since this is our last day together.
I wanna hold you just one more time.
When you turn and walk away, don't look back.

I wanna remember you just like this
Let's just kiss and say goodbye.
I had to meet you here today,
There's just so many things to say.
Please don't stop me till I'm though,
This is something I hate to do.

We've been meeting here so long.
I guess what we've done was wrong.
Please, darling don't you cry,
Let's just kiss and say goodbye..

Many months have passed us by.
I'm gonna miss you, I can't lie.
I've got ties and so do you.
I just think this is the things to do.
It's gonna hurt me, I can't lie.
Maybe you'll meet, you'll meet another guy.
Understand me, won't you try, try, try.....
Let's just kiss and say goodbye.

Maybe you'll find, you'll find another guy.
Let's just kiss and say goodbye, pretty baby.
Please don't cry.
Understand me, won't you try?
Let's just kiss and say goodbye....
