Famous (Album Version) – Gloria Estefan (葛洛丽娅·艾丝特凡)
What in this world feels so alive
Makes us then breaks us then helps us survive
Buries our hopes then revives our desire to succeed
We’re all greed
Who in this world sees when I cry
Throws me then shows me that I’m justified
Measure my worth then decide that I’m not what they need
They’ve agreed
Where in this world can I hide
Where can I find someone
That sees me inside to confide
How in this world can I go on
Wondering if you’ll think of me when I’m gone
Shielding my eyes from the pitiless light of the glare
Should you care
When in this world is it enough
I never thought it could be quite this rough
Living my life as if millions of people don’t stare
They’re not there
Why should I have to defend or derive
Most of the rules of the game I’ve defied
Though it’s been hard on my pride
It’s been one hell of a ride
Curiously
I didn’t set out to be famous
by David Jeffries\nLike Jewel and Liz Phair, Gloria Estefan chose a total change of direction for her 2003 release, writing all of the earnest and reflective lyrics for the soul-searching and devoid-of-dance-pop Unwrapped. With the most detailed production to ever grace the singer’s albums (swirling Mellotrons, Andean flutes, and a McCartney-esque muted-megaphone vocal trick that shows up too often) Unwrapped stumbles over itself trying to put Estefan’s emotional lyrics up front. Longtime collaborator Jon Secada and a revolving door of writers contribute the hookless accompaniment to Estefan’s rhetorical flourishes and excessive use of clichés. Her authentic delivery shows she’s really behind the new direction, which makes the urgent metaphors a little easier to take in small bites. Without even a hint of levity, sitting through the whole album feels like an exhausting open-mic night at the coffee shop. "Te Amaré" and "Wrapped" right some of the wrongs with light Latin touches offering relief, and the four Spanish-language reprises at the end of the album find the singer sounding twice as confident. The guest spots are left to the less ambitious numbers, with Stevie Wonder adding some exuberance to "Into You," and Chrissie Hynde trading lines with Estefan on "One Name" isn’t as awkward as expected. Had Unwrapped snuck in some of the new Gloria among some of the old, it could have been more successful. Covering up the underdeveloped writing with sonic overkill, it is as least interesting and a good setup for the expected "return-to-form" album.
