歌曲背景 "Stand by Me" is a song originally performed in 1961 by American singer-songwriter Ben E. King and written by King, Jerry Leiber, and Mike Stoller. According to King, the title is derived from, and was inspired by, a spiritual written by Sam Cooke and J. W. Alexander called "Stand by Me Father," recorded by the Soul Stirrers with Johnnie Taylor singing lead. The third line of the second verse of the former work derives from Psalm 46:2c/3c. In 2012, it was estimated that the song's royalties had topped $22.8 million (£17 million), making it the sixth highest-earning song as of its era. 50% of the royalties were paid to King. In 2014, King's original version was inducted into the National Recording Registry by the Library of Congress, as "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant", just under five weeks before his death. The song has been recorded by various artists, like John Lennon, Cassius Clay (later Muhammad Ali), the Cause, Tracy Chapman, musicians of the Playing for Change project, Florence and the Machine, and the Kingdom Choir. “Stand by Me”是美国歌手兼词曲作者Ben E.King于1961年演唱的一首歌,由King、Jerry Leiber和Mike Stoller共同创作。据金说,这首歌的灵感来源于山姆·库克和J.W.Alexander所写的一首名为《父亲,站在我身边》(Stand by Me Father),由灵魂激荡者(Soul Stirrers )和约翰尼·泰勒(Johnnie Taylor)主唱录制。前一部作品第二节的第三行来自《圣经》诗篇46:2c/3c。 2012年,据估计,这首歌的版税已超过2280万美元(1700万英镑),成为迄今为止收入第六高的歌曲。50%的版税支付给了King。[2]2014年,King的原版在他去世前不到五个星期就被美国国会图书馆列入了美国国家录音登记册,称之为“具有文化、历史或美学意义”。 这首歌已被许多艺术家翻唱录制,如约翰·列侬、卡西乌斯·克莱(后来的穆罕默德·阿里)、《事业》、特雷西·查普曼、“为改变而表演”计划的音乐家、佛罗伦萨与机器和王国合唱团。 Ben E.
