【我的总结与翻译】

总结：tally, melodic,

The Bee Gees' "How Can You Mend A Broken Heart" is one of 12 tunes Barry (Manilow) covers on Greatest Songs of the Seventies. He also recorded classics by (Simon and Garfunkel, the Beatles, Elton) John, the (Hollies), (Carole) King, and other 1970s superstars.

Bee Gees乐队演唱的《如何抚平一颗受伤的心》是Barry Manilow收录的12首《七十年代经典名曲》中的一首，另外收录的还有Simon 与 Garfunkel组合、披头士、Elton John、Hollies乐团及Carole King等20世纪70年代巨星的经典歌曲。

Barry says, "I sent a list of every Number One record in 1970s to everybody I knew and asked them to pick theri favorites." He (tallied) the results, and found many to be the same songs (he and) co-producer (Clive) Davis planned to include on the project.

Barry说：“我将70年代发行最好的唱片列成清单，发送给我所认识的人，并让他们选出他们最喜欢的歌曲。”通过记录的结果他发现许多歌曲都是他和他的联合制作人Clive Davis打算要收录的曲目。

"I think (what) we (did) was not only the greatest titles, for the most popular titles, but for me, the most (melodic) songs I could find, these are the most (melodic) songs. Songs like 'You've Got a Friend' and 'Sorry Seems To Be The Hardest Word.' (These are) not the disco songs or rock (and) roll. These are the most (melodic) (that we could find). (It's a beautifully) romantic representation."

“我认为我们所选出的曲目不仅是最经典的、最受欢迎的，对我而言，它们也是我所能找出的旋律最美的，就如《你还有我这个朋友》、《难以开口说抱歉》一样。它们并不是迪斯科曲、摇滚歌曲。这些都是我们所能找到的最悦耳的歌曲。它向人们展示了优美与浪漫。”

Last year, Barry recorded his first tow decade-driven albums. Combined sales of Greatest (Hits) of Fifties and Greatest (Hits) of Sixties reached nearly two million copies in the United States.

去年，Barry首次录制了2张十年精选专辑，《Greatest Hits of Fifties》与《Greatest Hits of Sixties》在美国的销量近200万张。
