【园园的话】
这首歌是我第三次重录，前面两个版本我都没在快递贴过。这次我还是没有去模仿Celion Dion, 因为我可能也模仿不来, 就根据自己的特点再配上点缀似的和声来演绎我对这首歌的理解。 录好后才想起来1912年4月10日是Titanic 的首航日， 于是邀请10pm为这个永恒的爱情故事提首小诗做个音画诗的视频。真心感谢10pm的给力合作！
怎样做这个视频呢？有那么多的内容，有Titanic的28张图片，有约50幅的摄影作品，有小诗， 有唱，有歌词，有titles and credits等等，于是我构思了这个模式， 用多条胶片串起Titanic图片，每条胶片的走速都要精算才能连起来，大银幕展现摄影作品， 最后拉幕等等，我很开心最后把想法转变成了一个艺术视频。邀请你看到最后。
下面是网上有关Titanic的一些我以前不知道的内容和大家分享。
What went wrong with Titanic
Titanic 造好后，就headed for Southampton, England. Once there, she was taken to sea for trials. But, unlike any other liner before her, Titanic's sea trials only lasted six hours because she was thought to be like her sister, the Olympic. （真是太过于自信了，这么一艘巨轮，竟然只试航了六小时。）
The Titanic was delivered a couple of weeks before her maiden voyage on Wednesday, April 10, 1912. （这么短的时间内准备这样的一次远航，真不可思议。）
The Captain on this ill-fated voyage was Captain Edward James Smith, a noble White Star seaman for 38 years. Popular with the crew and the passengers. The Captain was so impressed with the ship that he completely forgot to do his routine inspection of the ship. He ordered the Cheif to light 4 additional boilers to see how fast she could go. Now, the ship was forcing her engines to move fast as possible without over reviving them. The ship was now making an easy 22 knots without hesitation. The woman next to the Captain, Alice Lines, noticed he and another man talking about the speed of the ship and that it would get to New York earlier than the Olympic and beat her record and get into New York by Tuesday night. （beat the record，胜出了又有多大的意义呢？）
As the ship was pulling into position to dock at Queenstown, Ireland. A short, gray-haired man walked up to the Captain and Purser McElroy and snapped a picture. He shook hands with the Captain and introduced himself as Father Browne, his pictures of the Titanic are very famous today. (这可真是珍贵的历史镜头啊。)
As the ship was ready for departure, the lookouts were questioning White Star personnel as to where their binoculars were. They were told that they were misplaced, and this would play a role in the destruction of the ship. （多么大的一个错误，事实就是：等the lookouts用肉眼看见了冰山， 全速的Titanic已经无法避免的撞上去了。）.
The ship was casting off. Setting sail for New York. Taking her innocent victims on a death ride that they would soon not forget.
On Sunday, April 14, 1912, the temperature of the Atlantic Ocean dropped to near freezing; the night was clear and calm. The ship’s captain had received various ice warnings from other vessels, some of which reached the captain and others which did not. At 23:40, while sailing about 400 miles south of the Grand Banks of Newfoundland, lookouts spotted a large iceberg directly in the path of the Titanic. Captain Smith took a hard left to try to steer clear of the iceberg, but the massive chunk of ice produced a gaping hole in the starboard site of the Titanic. As the iceberg tore a 299 foot gash in the hull of the Titanic, water begun flooding into the watertight compartments. The Titanic was designed to be able to float with four of these compartments damaged, but the gaping hole exposed five of them, causing the Titanic’s bulkheads to fall below the waterline. (4 compartments damaged都不会沉，偏偏是5个damaged了，everything went wrong) .
The captain ordered the lifeboats deployed and a distress signal be sent out. Ships that received the signal include Mount Temple, Frankfurt, and the Titanic’s sister the Olympic, but none could reach the sinking Titanic in time. Lights from another vessel could be seen in the distance, and although the identity of the ship remains a mystery, speculation is that it was the lights of the Californian or a sealer called the Sampson. The Californian had warned the Titanic’s wireless operator of ice ahead and received an angry response back about being too busy to listen. It is believed that the Californian had seen the distress rockets launched by the Titanic (真是因为前面Titanic号的回应态度不好而赌气不救吗？)
Of the 2,223 passengers on the Titanic, only 706 survived leaving 1,517 dead. （看了这样的数字，让人的心都会疼起来。）
