英文歌曲：Against All Odds 再回头看我一眼

当红歌后玛利亚-凯丽（Mariah Carey）和“西城男孩”（Westlife）都翻唱过的菲尔-柯林斯（Phil Collins）的成名金曲《不计成败》。——爱情是流行音乐永恒的主题，不完美的结局即是它的最初动因。

Against All Odds¹
Phil Collins

How can I just let you walk away? Just let you leave without a trace?
When I stand here taking every breath with you
You're the only one who really knew me at all

How can you just walk away from me when all I can do is watch you leave?
'Cause we've shared the laughter and the pain and even shared the tears
You're the only one who really knew me at all

So take a look at me now. Oh there's just an empty space
And there's nothing left here to remind me, just the memory of your face
So take a look at me now, 'cause there's just an empty space
And you coming back to me is against all odds and that's what I've got to face

I wish I could just make you turn around, turn around and see me cry
There's so much I need to say to you, so many reasons why
You're the only one who really knew me at all

So take a look at me now 'cause there's just an empty space
And there's nothing left here to remind me, just the memory of your face
Now take a look at me now 'cause there's just an empty space
But to wait for you is all I can do and that's what I've got to face

Take a good look at me now 'cause l'll still be standing² here
And you coming back to me is against all odds
It's the chance I've got to take. Take a look at me now
