阿根廷别为我哭泣（Don't Cry For Me Argentina）出自音乐剧《艾薇塔》（Evita）。是一出由蒂姆·赖斯与安德鲁·劳埃德·韦伯共同制作的音乐剧。剧情内容是描述阿根廷前第一夫人伊娃·裴隆（Eva Peron，即艾薇塔）【在翻译成中文后也被称为贝隆夫人】从一个受尽社会歧视的私生女到权倾阿根廷的主政者的传奇一生。在阿根廷采用各种方式去纪念一位已经故去了60年的女人，这个人就是20世纪知名的第一夫人——艾薇塔·贝隆，即贝隆夫人。 1977年，该曲获得伊弗尔诺维罗奖“词曲最佳歌曲”奖。 音乐剧《艾薇塔》的音乐和歌曲录制是由原创音乐作者安德鲁·罗依德·韦伯亲自指导庞大的乐队，经过长达四个月400个录音小时的艰苦工作完成的。而在电影《艾薇塔》中麦当娜和安东尼奥·班德拉斯、乔纳森·普赖斯、吉米·奈尔等演员亲自演唱了影片中的所有歌曲，这其中，麦当娜是一位通俗歌星，安东尼奥·班德拉斯是职业电影演员，乔纳森·普赖斯则是一位真正的音 乐剧演员，不同演唱技巧融合的特殊效果使《艾薇塔》的歌曲具有了别样的质感。虽然《艾薇塔》在视觉上相当成功，但是它的音乐却显得更为出色，这或许就是音乐剧电影的魅力所在。 更值一提的是，导演大胆的任用麦当娜。这位美国歌坛的大姐大，在影坛上可谓演一部砸一部，而且由于她的个人评价等，主演艾薇塔导致阿根廷全国上下群情激愤，抗议恶女形象的麦当娜不配演出该国圣女艾薇塔。而麦当娜本人为获得该角色，写了四页亲笔信给导演，并专门学习声乐三个月，光在录音棚就录了四个月，每周7天，49段音乐就录了四百多个小时，当然出精品。而且，她在阿根廷拍外景时，面对抗议浪潮，她付出几倍于他人的努力，终于得到回报，甚至阿根廷总统也被她的诚心感动，答应出借总统府阳台。拍摄当天，当她出现在阳台，演唱“别为我哭泣阿根廷”时，4000群众演员和摄制人员都被深深的感动，以至人们都疯狂了。在电影中可以见到这一真实感人的场面。 "Don't Cry for Me Argentina" is a song recorded by Julie Covington for the 1976 concept albumEvita, later included in the 1978 musical of the same name. The song was written and composed by Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice while they were researching the life of Argentine leader Eva Perón. It appears at the opening of the first and second acts, as well as near the end of the show, initially as the spirit of the dead Eva exhorting the people of Argentina not to mourn her, during Eva's speech from the balcony of the Casa Rosada, and during her final broadcast. In 1996, American singer Madonna played the title role in the film adaptation of the musical and recorded her rendition of "Don't Cry for Me Argentina". Released as the second single from the film soundtrack on 4 February 1997, her version received positive reviews from music critics who praised her vocal performance. A separate version called the "Miami Mix", which included re-recorded vocals in English and Spanish and an Argentinian bandoneon, was promoted to radio. Madonna's version reached number one on the European Hot 100 Singles chart and the national charts of the Czech Republic, France, Hungary, and Spain. It also became a top-ten hit on the US Billboard Hot 100 and many other charts worldwide, while attaining gold or platinum in six countries.
