chris daughtry - what about now shadows fill an empty heart as love is fading, from all the things that we are but are not saying. can we see beyond the scars and make it to the dawn? change the colors of the sky. and open up to the ways you made me feel alive, the ways i loved you. for all the things that never died, to make it through the night, love will find you. what about now? what about today? what if you're making me all that i was meant to be? what if our love never went away? what if it's lost behind words we could never find? baby, before it's too late, what about now?
the sun is breaking in your eyes to start a new day. this broken heart can still survive with a touch of your grace. shadows fade into the light. i am by your side, where love will find you. what about now? what about today? what if you're making me all that i was meant to be? what if our love, it never went away? what if it's lost behind words we could never find? baby, before it's too late, what about now? now that we're here, now that we've come this far, just hold on. there is nothing to fear, for i am right beside you. for all my life, i am yours.
what about now? what about today? what if you're making me all that i was meant to be? what if our love never went away? what if it's lost behind words we could never find? what about now? what about today? what if you're making me all that i was meant to be? what if our love never went away? what if it's lost behind words we could never find? baby, before it's too late, baby, before it's too late, baby, before it's too late, what about now?
对于“爱情坟墓说”,大家往往莫衷一是;但对于婚后最初那段时光,很少有人否认它的甜蜜。单词honeymoon(蜂蜜+月)就是明证,很形象地形容了新婚感觉如蜂蜜般甘甜醇美……
有一种说法认为,“honeymoon”源于巴比伦的民情风俗。
这个古老的国家一直保留着这样一个传统,在女儿出嫁的第一个月,女孩的父亲每天都会让女婿喝mead(蜂蜜酒),以此希望女儿的婚姻永远幸福甜蜜。
不过,词源学家否认了这种说法。正统词源学认为,honeymoon并非指婚后一个月。虽然honey喻指新婚的甜蜜,但moon指代的是“月亮的盈亏”,这种苦涩的暗示旨在告诫人们:婚姻固然幸福甜美,但这种甜蜜就像月亮的盈亏只是暂时的,婚姻更多的意味着双方要一起肩负生活的重担,一起承受人生的酸甜苦辣,一起经历生活的风风雨雨。
原来,那只是一个开始。……
克里斯·多特里 Chris Daughtry 美国偶像 出生:1981 家乡: McLeansville, 北卡罗莱纳州 海选城市: 丹佛 最喜欢的女艺人:Kelly Clarkson 最喜欢的男艺人:Rob Thomas 什么时候开始唱歌? 真正开始是在16、7岁的时候。 虽然在第五届“美国偶像大赛”中并未入围最终的三甲,但凭借其颇具爆发力的嗓音得到广大观众喜爱的“光头人气王”克里斯·多特里(Chris Daughtry却是那届“美国偶像”给人留下印象最深的歌手之一。在凯丽·皮克勒(Kellie Pickler)之后,Chris Daughtry是同届的美国偶像中第二位发行正式专辑的歌手。
对于Chris Daughtry这样一位半路出家玩摇滚的歌手来说,这张《Daughtry》可以算作是一样相当出色的处女专辑。作为一位摇滚乐队的主唱,Chris Daughtry的嗓音条件和驾驭不同音域歌曲的能力都比与他有几分相似的Nickelback主唱Chad Kroeger要更出色,但如果以更高的标准来衡量Chris Daughtry和他乐队的这张专辑的话,可以说,这张《Daughtry》只能说是他较好的完成了从“美国偶像”一位普通的参赛选手到原创音乐人之间的转变。但要想在美国摇滚届真正开创出属于自己的一片天地的话,Chris Daughtry还有很长的路要走。
