Cherie 的 Betcha Never
Cherie，法國女歌手，網路上資料不多，WIKI上的介紹只有短短兩三行，十九歲的時候唱了兩首成名歌，一首是「Older Than My Years」，一首就是待會我底下要介紹的，而最近一次在活動上的紀錄是於04年出版同名專輯，再之後就沒有消息(默)
我會曉得她，是因為她替蝙蝠俠劇場動畫「Batman: Mystery of the Batwoman」唱了主題曲，對，就是有歌詞的那種。會這樣特地強調，是因為我第一次在迪士尼以外的動畫聽到有人在唱歌啊！當時真是一整個感動的要命！！畢竟美國動畫不像日本那般有著緊密的產業結構，日方會去找歌手來搭配片頭和片尾曲，除了達到宣傳效果，還藉此加深消費者對產品的印象和聯想。但這並不表示美國動畫沒看頭，他們在背景音樂的功夫上底子深厚，誠意十足，極為耐聽，一向就喜新厭舊的我從不擔心會有厭煩原聲曲子的那一天。
Cherie雖年輕，但聲線成熟，聲音的情感相當飽足，我覺得「Older Than My Years」比我現在要介紹的「Betvha never」更動聽，有直逼迪士尼許多經典情歌的氣勢，但誰叫Betcha never是蝙蝠俠動畫的主題曲呢，這個理由就夠代表一切了吧。
歌詞任性簡單，翻的很愉快，雖然和劇情一點都不相關，不過味道有對上去，劇中蝙蝠俠讓蝙蝠女們耍的團團轉，布魯斯吃鱉的樣子好可愛。這首歌後來有另外一個版本，由更廣為亞洲人知曉的泰國歌手塔塔楊（Tata Young）所唱，我並不曉得這位歌手，可從wiki百科上那一長串經歷以及Youtube上豐富的視訊影片來看，或許是我太孤陋寡聞才沒聽過她。我只貼上Chries的版本，由於該歌手的資源相當稀少，勉強才找到幾個合成版本，有興趣的人可以去比較一下這兩位年輕女歌手的風格。
