TILL THERE WAS YOU
六十年代的 "樂與怒 Rock n' Roll" 潮流, The Beatles 把一首另類的歌曲, 以一新耳目的演譯, 帶到搖滾流行歌曲樂壇, 雖然與 Peggy Lee 1958年的節奏相近, 但是由一隊在當年被稱狂野的青年樂手演譯之後, 被翻唱的版本陸續而至, 相信今天仍有樂迷把它視作 The Beatles 的原唱歌曲 ....
她是原曲的首唱歌手, 而由她演譯的歌曲與生平事跡, 卻甚少有記載, 我們衹可以從網上平台才欣賞到她的歌曲而已。

Eileen Wilson (1896-1942)
隨着時代的演變, 同一歌曲, 不同歌手的演譯和格調甚多, 現將網上資訉找出此曲有近九十個版本, 有些還有視像供樂迷欣賞; 在此介紹幾首不同格調的演譯, 全是拙筆個人的選擇; 可惜, 除了 Eileen Wilson 演繹的歌曲名字, 寫法是 'TIL I MET YOU 之外, 再沒法找到同樣名字, 其他版本則以 'TIL THERE WAS YOU 或 TILL THERE WAS YOU 的分别, 而歌曲是一樣而不同曲名。
