Suara serak Bryan Adams tak mungkin bisa dilewatkan begitu saja. Begitu juga saya, saya ga mungkin melewatkan begitu saja lantunan lagu yang keluar dari mulut pria asli Kanada ini. Lelaki berambut pirang kelahiran 5 November 1959 ini memang bisa diacungi jempol. Terlepas dari jenis suaranya yang rock and roll, caranya membawakan sebuah lagu, plus pemilihan lagunya pun cukup oke.

Salah satu lagunya yang saya sukai, tak hanya lirik, tapi juga melodi dan maknanya.

HAVE YOU EVER REALLY LOVED A WOMAN-BRYAN ADAMS

To really love a woman

To understand her - you gotta know it deep inside

Hear every thought - see every dream

N' give her wings - when she wants to fly

Then when you find yourself lyin' helpless in her arms

You know you really love a woman

When you love a woman you tell her

that she's really wanted

When you love a woman you tell her that she's the one

she needs somebody to tell her

that it's gonna last forever

So tell me have you ever really

- really really ever loved a woman?

To really love a woman

Let her hold you -

til ya know how she needs to be touched

You've gotta breathe her - really taste her

Til you can feel her in your blood

N' when you can see your unborn children in her eyes

You know you really love a woman

When you love a woman

you tell her that she's really wanted

When you love a woman you tell her that she's the one

she needs somebody to tell her

that you'll always be together

So tell me have you ever really -

really really ever loved a woman?

You got to give her some faith - hold her tight

A little tenderness - gotta treat her right

She will be there for you, takin' good care of you

Ya really gotta love your woman...

Then when you find yourself lyin' helpless in her arms

You know you really love a woman

When you love a woman you tell her

that she's really wanted

When you love a woman you tell her that she's the one

she needs somebody to tell her

that it's gonna last forever

So tell me have you ever really

- really really ever loved a woman?

Just tell me have you ever really,

really, really, ever loved a woman? You got to tell me

Just tell me have you ever really,

really, really, ever loved a woman?
