因着嗓音沙哑且性感而树立个人风格的英籍巨星Rod Stewart，早在身为“Jeff Beck Group”成员时期，即已享有歌声非凡的赞誉。自六○年代中期起，经过“Five Dimensions”、“Hoochie Coochie”、“Shotgun Express”、“Jeff Beck Group”、“Small Faces”(后更名为“Faces”)等乐团的琢磨历练之后，Rod终于在七○年代可以独当一面，展开一生灿斐然的歌唱生涯。洛·史都华（Rod Stewart）于1945年1月10日出生于伦敦，本名 Roderick David Stewart。豆沙般的嗓音，桀骜不驯的舞台形象，源源不断的创作灵感构成了摇滚巨星Rod Stewart。他被许多人称为摇滚公鸡.你有可能并不熟悉这个名字,但是你一定听过他演唱的这些歌曲:Sailing,Have I told you lately,For The First Time等等，Rod Stewart是个优异的歌者，不时也扮演作曲的感情故事，可以是柔情无限的抒情乐章，可以是大胆狂放的摇滚旋律，可以是温润清雅的民谣小品，也可以是带有一抹黑人音乐姿采的慢版佳构，于是，在这张萃选出他历年来16首抒情作品的精选辑里，所有属于Rod Stewart特有的知性、温柔、深情与感动，于此汨汨而泻，成为一种值得记录与珍藏的回忆。

他的歌声丝丝的、毛毛的，再加上温暖而细腻的和声，如同一只小狗的舌头，将你的手心舔了一遍又一遍。个人最喜欢他的一首歌是《For The First Time》，每次听都会情不自禁地闭上双眼，用身心去感受其中的深情。

（Rod Stewart）For the first time --- 无法忘怀的第一次
那是你的双眼
           那时你的笑容
           我已凝望了你一生
           却又好象从未见过你
           握着我的 是你的手吗
           我惊讶自己竟会如此沉迷
           第一次
           我凝视着你的眼睛
           第一次
           我清楚地看你仔细
           我无法确信自己看见了多少
           你回望着我
           那一刻  我明白了爱是什么
           爱就是
           从第一次开始.............

FOR THE FIRST TIME
Are those your eyes
Is that your smile
I've been looking at you forever
yet I never saw you before
Are these your hands holding mine
Now I wonder how I could have been so blind
And for the first time I am looking in your eyes
For the first time I'm seeing who you are
I can't believe how much I see
when you're looking back at me
now I understand what love is, love is
for the first time

Can this be real
Can this be true
Am I the person I was this morning
and are you the same you
It's all so strange
How can it be
All along this love was right in front of me
And for the first time I am looking in your eyes
For the first time I'm seeing who you are
I can't believe how much I see
when you're looking back at me
now I understand what love is, love is
for the first time

Such a long time ago I had given up
on finding this emotion ever again
But you're here with me now
Yes I found you somehow
and I've never been so sure
And for the first time I am looking in your eyes
For the first time I'm seeing who you are
Can't believe how much I see
when you're looking back at me
Now I understand what love is, love is
for the first time
For the first time
