2011 Lonely

這首歌翻唱於 1964 年 Bobby Vinton 的一首老歌「Mr. Lonely」。


重新編曲後，加上一段不難懂的 Rap，以及抒情的旋律，馬上讓這首老歌脫胎換骨，


從悲傷的鄉村歌曲，搖身一變成為寂寞的節奏藍調。

歌手 Akon 出生於賽內加爾，七歲時隨家人移民紐約。運動神經發達的他，

靠著籃球獎學金進入大學，準備成為一位職業球員，卻不幸在一次意外中摔斷了膝蓋，

職業球員的美夢破碎。他從此流連街頭，雖然因此愛上了 Hip-Hop 音樂，

卻也因為偷車而鋃鐺入獄。在獄中的三年，他洗心革面，將全副心力放在音樂上，

用音樂記錄他的生活，出獄後隨即製作了這張專輯，所有詞曲創作及編曲，

皆由他一手包辦。

終於，他再次找到了自己的美國夢。
