听歌学英语:Because of You

 

Kelly感人肺腑的浓郁唱腔使这首“Because of you”从一开始就牵动着听者的心灵。即使不知道歌词的人，也可能因为这首歌凄婉的曲调而扼腕感伤。Kelly如泣如诉而又富有弹性的声音，让人从中听到一种震慑人心的控诉，听到一个女子掩藏在坚强外表下的忧愁和委屈。

这首歌的歌词更是感人至深。朴实的字里行间，写着一个女子从埋怨到挣扎，再到清醒的过程。在自己幼年的时候，她是父母间恶劣关系的牺牲品，所以当她也遭遇同样的处境时，看着女儿含泪的眼睛，她猛醒，毅然走出了悲剧的循环。

这首歌不仅是情感的表达，而且是一种呼声，具有积极的社会意义，就像Jay当年的那首《爸，你回来了》。家庭冲突最大的受害者，往往不是冲突的双方，而是无辜的孩子。希望Kelly的歌声能唤醒那些迷失方向的父母，不要等到孩子眼中噙着仇恨的泪，才去后悔。
