最近迷上了Becky Taylor翻唱的这首曲子，浑厚有力的女中音，将这首歌曲演绎得别有味道。这个二十出头的小女生在音乐道路上已经如日中天了，虽然还没有大红大紫，但是从唱功及唱片的成绩足以显示出小天后的一番架势。
When I am down and, oh my soul, so weary;
When troubles come and my heart burdened be;
Then, I am still and wait here in the silence,
Until you come and sit awhile with me.
You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up… To more than I can be.
There is no life – no life without its hunger;
Each restless heart beats so imperfectly;
But when you come and I am filled with wonder,
Sometimes, I think I glimpse eternity.

每次看看自己的音乐收藏夹，无一例外，清一色女歌手。刚发现的挪威歌手Ｓｉｓｓｅｌ Ｋｙｒｋｊｅｂ如风拂麦田的清新嗓音，新西兰Ｈａｙｌｅｙ Ｗｅｓｔｅｎｒａ的美声唱法均是唤醒耳朵的好声音。一直喜欢的歌手还有爱尔兰的Ｃａｒａ Ｄｉｌｌｏｎ，她的声音堪称天籁，而且每一首曲子的歌词都带着醇美的诗意和丰沛的意境，令人意犹未尽。
Bonny, bonny was my seat in the red rosy yard
And bonny was my ship in the town of Ballynagard
Shade and shelter was for me till I began to fail
You all may guess now my distress lies near the Nightingale
Grief and woe that I must go to fight for England's King
I neither know his friend or foe, and war's a cruel thing
The nightingale is near at hand, my time at home is brief
And Carey's steams and mountain land I part with bitter grief
No more I'll walk the golden hills with Nancy by my side
Or dream along the sun bright rills, or view my land with pride
We sail away at dawn of day, the sails are ready set
When old Benmore I see no more, I'll sigh with deep regret
Now all must change and I must range across the ocean wide
Our ship she may in Biscay's Bay lie low beneath the tide……
法莫道不消魂国女伶Ｋａｒｅｎ Ａｎｎ的声音也十分特别，浅唱低吟出一种青春的迷幻及萌动。
有时候，在一个人的世界里，觉得文字和音符就是飘荡在我身边的呼吸，让我感动。于是，入夜，还是喜欢读着书，听着轻柔美妙的音乐，坠入自己的乌托邦。。。
