這首〈Goodbye girl〉的主唱者大衛蓋茲,就是著名的團體「麵包合唱團」的靈魂人物,而這首曲子也曾被周華健唱過,收錄在他的專輯裡……因為我剛好買了那張專輯~呵呵~筆者年輕時期,長達七年的駐唱生涯裡,也將其列為 Top 10 點歌排行曲之一,因為駐唱者是以西洋歌曲為主,來賓也大都會點西洋歌曲,〈Goodbye girl〉被點率極高,可能是因為周華健有唱過?或是筆者當時詮釋的比較有感?我想兼而有之吧!〈Goodbye girl〉僅大約排在〈Vincent〉、〈How can I tell Her〉……這幾首歌之後,總而言之,它絕對在十名之內……未來如果有時間,筆者想將塵封多年的註唱時使用的歌本翻出來整理一下……一定能有許多回憶……。
Goodbye girl David Gates

All your life you've waited for love to come and stay

And now that I have found you

Because baby, goodbye doesn't mean forever

Will bring me back to you

You fight the love you feel for me instead of giving in

So forget your past, my goodbye girl
