And I am telling you~這首歌選自音樂劇Dream girls,是莎拉雅最最最最最愛的音樂劇,當初是因為看到重拍的音樂劇電影版而認識了這部音樂劇,我一直都很喜歡黑人厚厚有power的聲音,再加上超好聽的歌,正中我心的劇情,這部劇對我來說就是完美~這首歌是劇中Effie被朋友.弟弟.男朋友誤會,還被男朋友拋棄而唱出的一首歌,劇中的Effie都會不時讓我想到自己,雖然我沒有誰拋棄,但是因著追夢還有不被看好的外表所遇到的挫折感真的讓我很感同身受,這部音樂劇的主題"追夢"正是我一直在追求的,夢想對我來說就是不論時間長短或遇到任何時都不會輕易放棄的才叫夢想,這首歌是我第一次在大家面前完整唱完,希望我下次能更唱出這種複雜又堅定的心!
And I am telling you I'm not going. You're the best man I'll ever know. There's no way I can ever go No, no, no, no way No, no, no, no way I'm livin' without you. I'm not livin' without you. I don't want to be free. I'm stayin', I'm stayin' And you, and you, you're gonna love me. Ooh, you're gonna love me. And I am telling you I'm not going Even though the rough times are showing. There's just no way There's no way. We're part of the same place. We're part of the same time. We both share the same blood. We both have the same mind. And time and time we have so much to share No, no, no, No, no, no, I'm not wakin' up tomorrow mornin' And findin' that there's nobody there. Darling, there's no way No, no, no, no way I'm livin' without you. I'm not livin' without you. You see, there's just no way There's no way. Tear down the mountains Yell, scream and shout. You can say what you want I'm not walkin' out. Stop all the rivers Push, strike, and kill. I'm not gonna leave you There's no way I will. And I am telling you I'm not going. You're the best man I'll ever know. There's no way I can ever, ever go No, no, no, no way No, no, no, no way I'm livin' without you. Oh, I'm not livin' without you I'm not livin' without you. I don't wanna be free. I'm stayin', I'm stayin' And you, and you You're gonna love me. Oh, hey, you're gonna love me Yes, ah, ooh, ooh, love me Ooh, ooh, ooh, love me Love me, Love me, Love me, Love me. You're gonna love me.
跨界美聲 莎拉雅演唱 Listen
Listen
To the song here in my heart A melody I start but can't complete Listen To the sound from deep within It's only beginning to find release Oh the time has come for my dreams to be heard They will not be pushed aside and turned Into your own All cause you won't listen
Chorus: Listen I am alone at a crossroads I'm not at home in my own home And I've tried and tried to say what's on my mind You should have known Oh, Now I'm done believing you You don't know what I'm feeling I'm more than what you made of me I followed the voice you gave to me But now I've gotta find my own You should have listened
There is someone here inside Someone I thought had died So long ago Oh I'm screaming out in my dreams to be heard They will not be pushed aside and turned Into your own All cause you won't listen
Chorus: Listen I am alone at a crossroads I'm not at home in my own home And I've tried and tried to say what's on my mind You should have known Oh, Now I'm done believing you You don’t know what I'm feeling I'm more than what you made of me I followed the voice you gave to me But now I've gotta find my own You should have listened
I don't know where I belong But I'll be moving on If you don't If you won't Listen
To the song here in my heart A melody I start but I will complete Oh,
Now I'm done believing you You don't know what I'm feeling Im more than what you made of me I followed the voice you think you gave to me But now I've gotta find my own
I dreamed a dream:選自音樂劇悲慘世界,劇中女主角Fantine,被丈夫拋棄獨自帶著小孩生活,又被工頭趕出來沒工作,女兒生病又需要錢看病,被現實的重重難關打擊而唱出這首歌。我想一般人在還沒認識蘇珊大嬸之前,應該只有音樂劇迷會聽過這首歌,因著蘇珊大嬸演唱這首歌而爆紅,其實這首歌本來就真的滿好聽的,我自己也很喜歡悲慘世界裡的歌,這歌詞也正中了我的心,當我在重重打擊下一度想放棄時就會對這首歌感同身受,但堅持到底的個性依然在我心中,永不放棄希望!
跨界美聲 莎拉雅演唱 I dreamed a dream
I dreamed a dream in time gone by When hope was high And life worth living I dreamed that love would never die I dreamed that God would be forgiving Then I was young and unafraid And dreams were made and used and wasted There was no ransom to be paid No song unsung, no wine untasted
But the tigers come at night With their voices soft as thunder As they tear your hope apart As they turn your dream to shame
He slept a summer by my side He filled my days with endless wonder He took my childhood in his stride But he was gone when autumn came
And still I dream he'll come to me That we will live the years together But there are dreams that cannot be And there are storms we cannot weather
I had a dream my life would be So different from this hell I'm living So different now from what it seemed Now life has killed the dream I dreamed.
I'm not that girl~選自音樂劇Wicked,莎拉雅在紐約也有去看這部超火紅不特價的音樂劇,真的好好聽好好看!這首是劇中綠女巫看見男主角Fiyero和Galinda在一起,又看著自己全身綠色奇特的外表,就傷心的覺得男主角一定不會愛上她,她不是那個Fiyero命中注定要在一起的女孩,一種淡淡的憂傷在這首歌中
ELPHABA Hands touch, eyes meet Sudden silence, sudden heat Hearts leap in a giddy whirl He could be that boy But I'm not that girl
Don't dream too far Don't lose sight of who you are Don't remember that rush of joy He could be that boy I'm not that girl
Ev'ry so often we long to steal To the land of what-might-have-been But that doesn't soften the ache we feel When reality sets back in
Blithe smile, lithe limb She who's winsome, she wins him Gold hair with a gentle curl That's the girl he chose And Heaven knows I'm not that girl
Don't wish, don't start Wishing only wounds the heart I wasn't born for the rose and the pearl There's a girl I know He loves her so I'm not that girl
跨界美聲 莎拉雅演唱 Defying gravity
GLINDA
I hope you're happy I hope you're happy now I hope you're happy how you've Hurt your cause forever I hope you think you're clever
ELPHABA I hope you're happy I hope you're happy too I hope you're proud how you would Grovel in submission To feed your own ambition
GLINDA & ELPHABA So though I can't imagine how I hope you're happy Right now
GLINDA Elphie, listen to me. Just say you're sorry!
You can still be with The Wizard What you've worked and waited for You can have all you ever wanted -
ELPHABA I know But I don't want it - No! I can't want it anymore
Something has changed within me Something is not the same I'm through with playing by The rules of someone else's game Too late for second-guessing Too late to go back to sleep It's time to trust my instincts Close my eyes And leap...
It's time to try defying gravity I think I'll try defying gravity And you can't pull me down
GLINDA Can't I make you understand You're having delusions of grandeur?
ELPHABA I'm through accepting limits Cuz someone says they're so Some things I cannot change But till I try I'll never know Too long I've been afraid of Losing love I guess I've lost Well if that's love It comes at much too high a cost
I'd sooner buy defying gravity Kiss me goodbye, I'm defying gravity And you can't pull me down!
Glinda, come with me. Think of what we could do - together!
Unlimited Together we're unlimited Together we'll be the greatest team There's ever been - Glinda! Dreams the way we planned 'em
GLINDA If we work in tandem
GLINDA & ELPHABA There's no fight we cannot win Just you and I, defying gravity With you and I defying gravity
ELPHABA They'll never bring us down!
Well, are you coming?
(GLINDA decides to stay behind.)
GLINDA I hope you're happy I hope your happy now that your choosing this -
ELPHABA You too-- I hope it brings you bliss
GLINDA & ELPHABA I really hope you get it And you don't live to regret it I hope you're happy in the end I hope you're happy my friend
ELPHABA So if you care to find me Look to the Western sky! As someone told me lately Everyone deserves the chance to fly And if I'm flying solo At least I'm flying free To those who ground me Take a message back from me!
Tell them how I am defying gravity I'm flying high, defying gravity And soon I'll match them in renown And nobody in all of Oz No Wizard that there is or was Is ever gonna bring me down!!
GLINDA I hope you're happy
CITIZENS OF OZ Look at her She's wicked Get her!!
ELPHABA Bring me down!
CITIZENS OF OZ No one mourns the wicked So we got to bring her -
