有人说,听Alison Krauss唱歌,恍如清晨站在草原上,轻风拂在脸上,和煦的阳光照在身上,抬起头,看蓝天上白云悠然而过.她的音乐反复听几十遍,还是觉得时间过得太快。孤独,而且最好有点寂寞的时候适合欣赏,无论内心还是环境,都异常安静。Alison单薄而清亮的歌声,时而欢喜昂扬,时而抑郁低吟,很简单的音乐,很平实地唱着生活中的点点滴滴。一种不愠不火,温暖却忧郁,柔美又坚强的感动,一种舒服得令人想掉泪的感动......
I give you to his heart The wind is blowing down the quiet river,
a shining road that carries you alone.
Baby boy my love will last forever.
If you’re to live, I must give you up to God.
I know our God will guide, protect and keep you.
Teach you faith and hold you by the heart.
Though your mother’s heart is broken by your leaving,
her Father knows just who he is and who you are.
I wish that life wasn’t always ending up this way,
with Heaven’s love at stake and hell to pay.
But you in God’s loving plan might be the missing part.
You must live.
So I give you to his heart.
The wind is blowing down the silent river,
a shining road that leaves me all alone.
A life for you’s worth losing you forever.
Some day we’ll stand in God’s fair land, forever home.
I wish that life wasn’t always ending up this way,
with Heaven’s love at stake and hell to pay.
But you in God’s loving plan might be the missing part.
You must live.
So I give you to his heart.
I wish that life wasn’t always ending up this way,
with Heaven’s love at stake and hell to pay.
But you in God’s loving plan might be the missing part.
You must live.
So I give you to his heart.
It doesnt matter
When You Say Nothing At All
It's amazing how you can speak right to my heart
Without saying a word you can light up the dark
Try as I may I can never explain
what i hear when you don\'t say a thing
CHORUS
the smile on your face lets me know that you need me
there's a truth in your eyes saying you\'ll never leave me
the touch of your hand says you\'ll catch me wherever i fall
you say it best when you say nothing at all
all day long i can hear people talking out loud
but when you hold me near you drown out the crowd
try as they may they can never define
what's been said between your heart and mine
(CHORUS*2)
you say it best
when you say nothing at all
you say it best
when you say nothing at all
the smile on your face
there's a truth in your eyes
the touch of your hand
lets me know that you need me
you say it best
when you say nothing at all...
Killing the Blues
「Raising Sand」这张专辑中,T Bone Burnett 独树一帜、略带迷幻的声响为歌曲做了最好的氛围铺陈。两人展现极佳的默契与堪称完美的和声,处处展现出乡村情歌令人心醉的独特韵味。两人神乎其技的合作,可说为当代乡村、民谣写下了新的里程碑。
Killing The Blues-Robert.Plant.&Alison.Krauss
Leaves were falling, just like embers,
In colors red and gold, they set us on fire
Burning just like moonbeams in our eyes.
[Chorus:]
Somebody said they saw me, swinging the world by the tail
Bouncing over a white cloud, killing the blues.
Now I'm guilty of something...
I hope you never do
Because there is nothing
Any sadder than losing yourself in love.
[Chorus]
And then you've ask me... just to leave you
To set out on my own
And get what I needed.
You want me to find what I've already had.
[Chorus 2x]
Whiskey Lullaby
The Lucky One
You’re the lucky one so I’ve been told
Free as the wind blowindown the road
Loved by many, hated by none
I’d say you were lucky cause I know what you’ve done
Not a care in the world not a worry in sight
Everything’s going to be all right
Cause you’re the lucky one
You’re the lucky one always havinfun
A jack of all trades a master of none
You look at the world with a smiling eye
And laugh at the devil as his train rolls by
Just give you a song and a one-night stand
And you’ll be looking at a happy man
Cause you’re the lucky one
Were you blessed? I guess
By never knowinwhich road you’re choosing
To you the next best thing to playinand winning
Is playinand losin
You’re the lucky one I know that now
Don’t ask you why when where o how
You look at the world through your smilineye
And laugh at the devil as his train rolls by
Just give you a song and a one-night stand
And you’ll be looking at a happy man
Cause you’re the lucky one
Chorus
You’re the lucky one I know that now
Don’t ask you why when where o how
No matter where you’re at is where you’ll be
You can bet your luck won’t follow me
Just give you a song and a one-night stand
And you’ll be looking at a happy man
Cause you’re the lucky one.
