音乐咖啡厅:Nikki Yanofsky - I believe

相关介绍：我渐渐迷上爵士女伶这类人群，很大程度上是因为我发现她们讲话的时候也象是在唱歌。如果说爵士女伶上辈子是一只鸟的话，我想Nikki Yanofsky一定是百灵鸟的化身。等下再告诉你Nikki Yanofsky有多大，有人曾用一句话形象的形容她在Montreal音乐节上的一举成名，“she captivated her audience like a veteran¹ performer² three times her age”。我不知道她的Over the Rainbow属于跟唱谁的版本，亦或是她自己的，总之这个版本是我听到过的曲调改动最大的，她唱的挥洒自如。顺便提一下，Nikki Yanofsky在今年加拿大温哥华冬奥会的闭幕式上也有参与演出。最后，史上最小的爵士发片女歌手，出生于1994年2月8日。

歌词：

Song：I Believe
Artist：Nikki Yanofsky

There comes a moment when my heart must stand alone
On this lonely path I've chosen
like a house that's not a home
sometimes when I feel I've had enough
and I feel like giving up
you willed me to be all I can be
now nothing can stop me

I believe in the power that comes
From a world brought together as one
I believe together we'll fly
I believe in the power of you and I

This is the moment we have dreamed of all our lives
We'll be the change we wish from others
We'll stand tall for what is right
And in my heart there'll be no doubt
The arms of the world will come reaching out
And embrace³ me to be all I can be
Now nothing can stop me

I believe in the power that comes
From a world brought together as one
I believe together we'll fly
I believe in the power of you and I
I believe in the power... of you and I

I believe, I believe, I believe in-
I believe, I believe in you-
I believe, I believe, I believe in-
I believe, I believe, I believe in... you-

(Instrumental)
I believe together we'll fly
I believe in the power of you and I

I believe the time is right now
Stand tall and make the world proud
I believe together we'll fly
I believe in the power..
I believe in the power that comes
From a world brought together as one
(Of you and I)
I believe together we'll fly
I believe in the power of you and I
(power)
I believe the time is right now
(Oh you and I)
Stand tall and make the world proud
I believe together we'll fly (Together we'll fly)
I believe in the power of you and I
(I believe in the power...of you and I)
