Tommy Page本名Thomas Alden Page,1970年生於美國的新澤西州,1988年,正是憑藉一首A Shoulder To Cry On而走紅,成為著名的偶像派歌手,和當年的Glenn Medeiros齊名的美國少男歌星,尤其是這兩位歌手在台灣地區極其受歡迎,也多次來台灣地區舉行演唱會。同時tommy也曾與葉倩文等當紅華語歌手有過合作,他的歌亦被葉倩文、紅孩兒等人多次翻唱。

從業經歷

Thomas Alden Page 於1970 年5月24出生在美國新澤西。他八歲開始彈鋼琴,學到了12歲學習鍵盤年齡,與他的兄弟同組樂隊。高中畢業後, 他搬到紐約,在一個叫“nell's”的俱樂部擔任著裝檢查員。在這段時間裡,他在N.Y.U.學習經商,同時也創作和記錄了單曲《turn me on》,這支歌當時被全城的dj播放。一年後,tommy得到了一次機會,與麥當娜的創作人Mark Kamins,以及Sire Records唱片公司的高層Seymour Stein會面。這次會面促使tommy page在1988 年春天Sire Records唱片公司簽約。同年tommy在亞洲推出他的同名專輯,其中《a shoulder cry on》一曲在年輕人中引起轟動,成為傳唱度極高的作品,同時在北美引起關注。

運氣再次降臨。兩年後,當他遇到正當紅的組合New KIds On The Block 時 ,其成員Donnie Wahlberg 決定 "give T a number one song"。結果是,一首名為《I'll Be Your Everything》重磅降落billboard榜,這首單曲匯集了主唱tommy page,樂手Donnie Wahlberg,、Jordan Knight、 和Danny Wood。之後這首歌出現在tommy 的第二章專輯《Paintings in My Mind》上,不久後tommy出現在Joan Rivers和“Regis and Kathie Lee ”之類的脫口秀節目上,並占據各類青少年雜誌的封面,同時也他的世界巡演開始售票。緊接著華納兄弟因看重其才能,立刻將他送往製作人Mike Paley那裡,發布了新的聖誕單曲後,tommy的第三張專輯《from the heart》隨之出爐。當銷量達到滿盤紅時,tommy被他的美國唱片公司留下來了,他被公認為一個新的奇蹟。

而在日本,又是不同的情況。隨著tommy發布新歌和B版的同名專輯的主打歌曲《a friend to relay on》的超高點擊率,在加入亞洲Pony Canyon唱片公司之前,他陸續推出了兩張備受推崇的專輯:1994年的《Time》和1996年的《Loving You》。隨著《Loving You》專輯的發布日期臨近,tommy完成了他在紐約大學國際商業及市場學的學業,並在曼哈頓有了長久的家,同時在Pocconos, PE有了一個周末去所。這張專輯中的單曲《Loving You》在亞洲達到了一個喜人的銷量,但在日本90年代末經濟危機的壓力下,他的唱片公司被迫關閉僅僅留下一個辦公室,同時使得tommy的事業變得前途未卜。

在決定將他的職業生涯專注於培養其他的藝人之前,tommy發布了專輯《Ten Til Midnight in Spring of 2000》。據說,在完成每次錄音後,他都會背著他的隨身聽走在海灘上一遍一遍的聽,如果歌曲感動了他,才能經過考驗算作合格。儘管在美國只是紅了一時,但tommy仍然為自己做出了相當的成績,在12年裡發了7張專輯。

《A Shoulder to Cry On 》

Tommy Page

Life is full of lots of up and downs

And the distance feels further

When you're headed for the ground

And there is nothing more painful

Then to let your feelings take you down

It's so hard to know the way you feel inside

When there's many thoughts and feelings that you hide

But you might feel better

If you let me walk with you by your side

And when you need a shoulder to cry on

When you need a friend to rely on

When the whole world is gone

You won't be alone, cause I'll be there

I'll be your shoulder to cry on

I'll be there

I'll be a friend to rely on

When the whole world is gone

You won't be alone, cause I'll be there

All of the times when everything is wrong

And you're feeling like there's no use going on

You can't give it up

I hope you work it out and carry on

Side by side with you till the end

I'll alway be the one to firmly hold your hand

No matter what is said or done

Our love will always continue on

Everyone needs a shoulder to cry on

Everyone needs a friend to rely on

When the whole world is gone

You won't be alone cause I'll be there

I'll be your shoulder to cry on

I'll be there

I'll be the one you rely on

When the whole world's gone

You won't be alone cause I'll be there

And when the whole world is gone

You'll always have my shoulder to cry on....
