"You Raise Me Up" is a song that was originally composed by the Secret Garden duo.
The music was written by Secret Garden's Rolf Lovland and the lyrics by Brendan Graham.
After the song was performed early in 2003 by the Secret Garden and their invited lead singer,
Brian Kennedy, the song only became a minor UK hit.
The song has been recorded by more than a hundred other artists including Josh Groban,
who popularized the song in 2004; his rendition became a hit in the United States.
The Irish band Westlife then popularized the song in the United Kingdom two years later.
这里共享的这个版本就是Westlife的。相对来说,比Josh Groban的版本更让我喜欢。
附录歌词:
YOU RAISE ME UP
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.
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.
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.
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.
You raise me up... To more than I can be. 作者: 逆天废柴 时间: 2013-11-24 20:22
我的个乖乖,还以为叶子要唱《YOU RAISE ME UP》
为回这贴我还去查了查wiki, 这位叫Shizuka Arakawa, 拿了当年日本冬奥会的唯一一块金牌。后来离开竞技场,投身职业滑冰,还演了电视剧,参加ABC的滑冰秀等。wiki里有她当年里做的拱门照片,下面清楚的写着 “Arakawa performs her signature layback Ina Bauer in her exhibition to You Raise Me Up by Celtic Woman at the 2006 Olympics.”
