你知道有首歌幾乎人人都會哼，卻不知道原唱是誰嗎？繼上次70年代老鷹合唱團的金曲《Desperado》後，本週《英語咖啡館 - 爵士學英語》John 老師和 Shimin 老師要帶大家進入80年代，探討 Bette Midler 的經典《The Rose》！這位擁有四座金球獎、三座葛萊美的超級巨星，居然發行過14張專輯，但大多數人卻是從電影認識她！
這首歌最特別的是完全沒有副歌，三段主歌分別描述感情的不同面向，你認為愛更像是河流還是剃刀呢？Shimin 老師也分享了多年前在三芝海邊駐唱時接到的點歌經驗，那是一次沒練過這首歌卻能演唱的奇妙回憶！
Do you know there's a song that almost everyone can hum, but they don't know who originally sang it? Following last time's 70s Eagles hit "Desperado," this week on English Cafe, John and Shimin take everyone into the 80s to explore Bette Midler's classic "The Rose"! This superstar who has won four Golden Globes and three Grammys has actually released 14 albums, but most people know her from movies!
What makes this song special is that it has no chorus at all—the three verses each describe different aspects of love. Do you think love is more like a river or a razor? Shimin also shares her experience from years ago when she was performing at a seaside venue in Sanzhi and received a song request—it was a wonderful memory of performing a song she had never practiced before!

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
