Ronan Parke (罗南·帕克) 因参加2011年英国达人比赛(Britains Got Talent )而出名,当时还只是12岁的他第一次站在舞台上,唱Nina Simone的 《Feeling Good》。而他的表现震惊了整个人群也让所有的裁判员站起来为他鼓掌。Louis Walsh说过“Ronan Parke - remember that name. This kid is going to be a star” (罗南帕克-记住这个名字。这孩子会成为一位明星)。 半决赛时,他演唱Adele的《Make You Feel My Love》,精湛唱功再次引爆全场。最终以一首 Kelly Clarkson经典单曲《Because Of You》赢得比赛亚军。如果不看他那乳臭未干的外表,只听声音你很难相信这是一个只有12的小男孩唱出来的歌,《Because Of You》中罗南·帕克表现出来的精湛唱功令很多成年人都为之汗颜,尤其在高音区游刃有余的纯熟程度和其年龄大不相称,真的是震惊你耳朵的童声天籁啊。
Ronan Parke 《Because Of You》
I will not let myself 也不会让自己的心品尝苦涩
Cause my heart so much misery
I will not break the way you did 更不会像你一样崩溃
You fell so hard
I've learned the hard way 我知道痛苦的滋味
To never let it get that far 却绝不会轻易去体会
Because of you 因为你
I never stray too far from the sidewalk 人生的轨道我从不敢偏离
Because of you 因为你
I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt 我学会用封闭内心来保护自己
Because of you 因为你
I find it hard to trust not only me,but everyone around me 不仅难以相信自己,连周围的人我都怀疑
Because of you 因为你
I am afraid 我如此畏惧
I lose my way 我迷失了
And it's not too long before you point it out 就在你发现前那一刻
I cannot cry 我不能哭泣
Because I know that's weakness in your eyes 因为在你眼中这就是脆弱
I'm forced to fake 每一天,我伪装的笑容都写满逼迫
A smile,a laugh everyday of my life
My heart can't possibly break 我的心不可能再破碎了
When it wasn't even whole to start with 因为她已经毁在了最初的那刻
Because of you 因为你
I never stray too far from the sidewalk 人生的轨道我从不敢偏离
Because of you 因为你
I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt 我学会用封闭内心来保护自己
Because of you 因为你
I find it hard to trust not only me,but everyone around me 不仅难以相信自己,连周围的人我都怀疑
Because of you 因为你
I am afraid 我如此畏惧
I watch you die 我目睹你日渐憔悴的容颜
I heard you cry every night in your sleep 我听见你呜咽着彻夜难眠
I was so young 我还这么小
You should have known better than to lean on me 你怎能依靠在我的双肩
You never thought of anyone else 你什么也看不见
You just saw your pain 除了你自己的痛苦
And now I cry in the middle of the night 而现在我也哭泣
For the same damn thing 只因为你的悲剧在我身上重演
Because of you 因为你
I never stray too far from the sidewalk 人生的轨道我从不敢偏离
Because of you 因为你
I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt 我学会用封闭内心来保护自己
Because of you 因为你
I try my hardest just to forget everything 我用尽全力去把一切忘记
Because of you 因为你
I don't know how to let anyone else in 我不懂什么叫与人心有灵犀
Because of you 因为你
I'm ashamed of my life because it's empty 我的生命是一片可耻的空虚
Because of you 因为你
I'm afraid 我如此畏惧
