歌手简介
美国重金属团Mr. Big成军于1988年，四名成员分别为：主唱艾立克•马汀（Eric martin）、吉他手保罗•格里波特（Paul Gilbert）、贝司手比利•舍汉（Billy Sheehan）、鼓手帕特•托佩（Pat Torpey）。乐队清脆、凌厉的吉他扫弦，刚劲有力、摄人心魄的鼓击节奏，若隐若现、恰如其分的贝司，尤其是主唱Eric Martin那充满雄性魅力又不失深情的沙哑磁性嗓音，都如同“重金属教科书”般标准。他们的音乐一出，即令听者心潮澎湃，热血沸腾，浑身每个细胞都随音乐的猛烈撞击如欲迸裂般兴奋，让无数重金属乐迷重新找到了心灵的归宿。乐队在坚持重金属音乐风格的同时也树立了自己的音乐个性，他们给重金属音乐背景注入了浓厚的深情婉转的布鲁斯音乐风格，而且Mr. Big一直注重音乐旋律的优美和可听性，他们的这种刚劲沧桑中不失婉转深情的音乐特点为他们赢得了来自世界各地的无数拥蹙。
我听之我见
这首歌被很多人熟知是在Westlife（西城男孩）2003年的专辑《Turnaround》中，甚至以为那是原唱。事实上，这首《To be with you》是Mr. Big乐队的成名曲，发表于1991年，同时也是他们最为出色的一首柔情作品。歌声中饱含着源自心底的深情乞求，丝丝椎心痛楚传入听者心底，主唱歌声与背景合音的一唱一和交相辉映成就了这首歌最突出的特点。特别值得一提的是Eric Martin的演唱，他那优雅而深情的演绎风格是其他重金属歌手身上找不到的。音乐背景中的吉他扫弦也非常见功底，给整首音乐增色许多又不喧宾夺主。
Mr. Big: To Be With You
Hold on, little girl
Show me what he's done to you
Stand up, little girl
A broken heart can't be that bad
When it's through, it's through
Fate will twist the both of you
So come on baby, come on over
Let me be the one to show you
I'm the one who wants to be with you
Deep inside I hope you feel it too
Waited on a line of greens and blues
Just to be the next to be with you
Build up your confidence
So you can be on top for once
Wake up who cares about
Little boys that talk too much
I've seen it all go down
Your game of love was all rained out
So come on baby, come on over
Let me be the one to hold you
Chorus
Why be alone when we can be together baby
You can make my life worthwhile
And I can make you start to smile
When it's through, it's through
Fate will twist the both of you
So come on baby, come on over
Let me be the one to show you
