如果你先看到Tommy Shane Steiner的长相再听到他的歌声，一定会为这个看似好莱坞影人的金发男子居然有着纯正的乡村歌喉而惊诧不已。29岁Tommy，来自于德克萨斯，和他的曾祖父、祖父、父亲一样，他是一个真正的牛仔。不过，与家中的那些擅长竞技比赛的高手们有所不同，Steiner走的是一条属于牛仔的演艺道路。他花了6年时间学习并积累了丰富
的舞台经验，在22岁那年正式登台表演，并在去年推出了充满阳光的励志大碟《夜幕降临》(Then Came The Night)。
一位真正有才华的新歌手，必然会受到许多前辈的关注和提携。连续11年主持乡村音乐协会年度颁奖典礼的歌星Vince Gill出人意料地为Steiner这张专辑的主推曲“倘若她是天使”(What If She's An Angel)配唱了合声。“倘若她是天使”是一首对灵魂进行质问的作品。它提醒人们:关注你身边的那些需要帮助的人。此外，资深艺人Randy Travis的参与也为唱片集增添了更多的亮点。
今年29岁的Steiner的音乐作品，透射出牛仔们质朴的人生观：当你无奈的时候，不妨豁达地去创造生活；当你获得了美满的生活时，不妨去关注需要帮助的人，珍惜人生中的美好事物。现在，无论身在何处，Tommy Shane Steiner依然如故，心中永存着余辉中那一望无际的德州牧场。
what if she's an angel
There's a man, standing on the corner,
With a sign saying: "Will work for food."
You know the man, you see him every morning,
The one you never give your money to.
You can sit there with your window rolled up,
Wonderin' when the light's gonna turn green.
Never knowing what a couple more bucks,
In his pocket might mean.
What if he's an angel sent here from heaven?
And he's making certain that you're doing your best,
To take the time to help one another:
Brother, are you gonna pass that test?
You can go on with your day-to-day,
Trying to forget what you saw in his face.
Knowing deep down you could have been his savin' grace.
What if he's an angel?
There's a man, and there's a woman,
Livin' right above you in apartment G.
There's a lot of noise comin' through the ceiling,
And it don't sound like harmony.
You can sit there with your TV turned up,
While the words in his anger fly.
But come tomorrow when you see her with her shades on,
Can you look her in the eye?
What if she's an angel sent here from heaven?
And she's making certain that you're doing your best,
To take the time to help one another:
Brother, are you gonna pass that test?
You can go on with your day-to-day,
Tryin' to forget what you saw in her face.
Knowing deep down you could have been her savin' grace.
What if she's an angel?
Instrumental Break.
A little girl, on daddy's lap,
Hidin' her disease with a baseball cap.
You can turn the channel, most people do.
But what if you were sitting in her daddy's shoes?
What if she's an angel sent here from heaven?
And she's making certain that you're doing your best,
To take the time to help one another:
Brother, are you gonna pass that test?
You can go on with your day-to-day,
Trying to forget what you saw in her face.
Knowing deep down you could have been her savin' grace
倘若她是天使
一个男子站在街角
身边的标示告之
他已失去了工作
你每天清晨都能见到他
只是你从不施舍
你安逸的坐在窗前
寻思着何时黄昏来临
却不曾考虑
那男子口袋中的几元钱对他的意义
倘若他是天使
从天间下凡
观察你是否用心尽力去帮助另一个人
兄弟
你会通过这个测试吗
你可以一如既往的打发日子
并抹去那张脸在你脑海中记忆
但你深知自己曾有过帮助他的机会
倘若他是天使
你的公寓楼上居住着一对夫妻
透过天花板
你能听到争执声此起彼伏
当他的怒吼声传来
你可以安然的坐在屋内开响电视的音量
而次日
当看着她受伤的印记
你是否还有勇气注视她的眼睛
倘若她是天使
从天间下凡
观察你是否用心尽力去帮助另一个人
兄弟
你会通过这个测试吗
你可以一如既往的打发日子
并抹去那张脸在你脑海中记忆
但你深知自己曾有过帮助她的机会
倘若她是天使
一个小女孩坐在父亲的膝上
她的棒球帽
遮掩住她病痛的模样
你可以象其他很多人那样转换频道
但是
倘若你是女孩的父亲
你会如何感受 |
