憶蓮當年揀呢首歌作為city rhythm III既首支主打我已經非常喜歡,不過隻歌就無後來既前塵咁受歡迎
我呢,就發現呢首歌原版應該係D'Atra Hicks既Something About You,荻野木洋子果個都係改編
至於2002年憶蓮既新版,我都幾鍾意,因為young左好多嘛!

You are right: the Japanese version is not the original! But neither does D’Atra Hicks' version!

Album: D'Atra Hicks
Release Date: July 19, 1989
Both Oginome Yoko/Yoko Oginome-albums (Eng/Jap) came out prior D'Atra Hicks' release! See also: http://www.sandyandme.com/sandyandme/original.htm

All the tracks were produced/co-written by Narada Michael Walden! I don't believe an international artist like Narada would provide so much help on a cover version!
So actually Oginome Yoko's/Yoko Oginome's Something About You (English) is the original! Then the cover of her Something About You (Eng) in Japanese this time! Finally D'Atra Hicks has recorded Something About You as well!
In general I don't like Japanese artists singing English! But Oginome Yoko's/Yoko Oginome's performance in fluent English (without Japanese accent) is perfect (even very sexy with the midtro/spoken words)! Sandy's version is very similar to hers.
Here's Oginome Yoko/Yoko Oginome - Something About You (English, although it was marked as Japanese)

thanks!我會叫果位出遊既寨主搵番隻歌加番佢架喇
樓上Griffin說得沒錯，荻野目洋子的英語版本應該是第一手的創作。剛巧早前去了東京，在澀谷某二手CD店買了《Verge Of Love》。 這是張英文歌專輯，由著名音樂人Narada Michael Walden任監製，全碟在他於加州的Tarpan Studios進行錄音。 10首歌曲中，他參與創作了9首～《Something About You》便是其中之一。而製作班底的名字當中，亦發現了另一位同具份量的音樂人Walter Afanasieff，他負責全碟keyboards的彈奏部分。
CD的inner sleeve，可以找到NMW對於與荻野目洋子合作的感想：
“Dearest Yoko, working with you gave me immense joy. Your great dedication, discipline and great vocalizing are an inspiration to me. Deepest love, NARADA
P.S. Life is a piece of cake !! ”
Lemon Tree, 你方便將呢個版本email俾寨主嘛?

GC,
當然冇問題啦，已寄出了首歌，請查收。
咦？遠遊既寨主幾有效率！
佢已經加番英文原版喇！
多謝Lemon Tree！
