[聽的] Halo by Beyonce or Sam Tsui

原唱當然是Beyonce啦~這首2009年的作品，不知道為什麼我居然現在才聽到...
最近在YouTube上很紅的耶魯大學生Sam Tsui也翻唱了一遍

Beyonce的黑人R&B給這首歌很完整的生命力
大器而不浮華的編曲方式結合美聲合音
堆疊如浪濤洶湧而至的濃厚情感
讓人有種想要緊緊抱住另一半大聲說愛的氛圍

然而Sam Tsui的版本只有單獨的人聲和一把吉他伴奏
看似單薄的組合卻反而突顯Sam Tsui獨特聲線的穿透力
每一個字每一個音符
都像針線一樣穿進心裡
串起愛情裡曾經每一段甜美的回憶

如果Beyonce的版本是毫不保留的用全心全意告訴你我愛你
那麼Sam Tsui的版本就像是夜晚星空下兩人枕邊的絮語

兩個版本都很好聽，建議大家都去聽聽看
以下是歌詞：

Halo
Songwriters: Bogart, Evan Kidd; Knowles, Beyonce Gisselle; Tedder, Ryan Benjamin;

Remember those walls I built
Well, baby they're tumbling down
And they didn't even put up a fight
They didn't even make up a sound

I found a way to let you in
But I never really had a doubt
Standing in the light of your halo
I got my angel now

It's like I've been awakened
Every rule I had you breakin'
It's the risk that I'm takin'
I ain't never gonna shut you out

Everywhere I'm looking now
I'm surrounded by your embrace
Baby I can see your halo
You know you're my saving grace

You're everything I need and more
It's written all over your face
Baby I can feel your halo
Pray it won't fade away

I can feel your halo halo halo
I can see your halo halo halo
I can feel your halo halo halo
I can see your halo halo halo

Hit me like a ray of sun
Burning through my darkest night
You're the only one that I want
Think I'm addicted to your light

I swore I'd never fall again
But this don't even feel like falling
Gravity can't forget
To pull me back to the ground again

Feels like I've been awakened
Every rule I had you breakin'
The risk that I'm takin'
I'm never gonna shut you out

Everywhere I'm looking now
I'm surrounded by your embrace
Baby I can see your halo
You know you're my saving grace

You're everything I need and more
It's written all over your face
Baby I can feel your halo
Pray it won't fade away

I can feel your halo halo halo
I can see your halo halo halo
I can feel your halo halo halo
I can see your halo halo halo

I can feel your halo halo halo
I can see your halo halo halo
I can feel your halo halo halo
I can see your halo halo halo
Halo, halo

Everywhere I'm looking now
I'm surrounded by your embrace
Baby I can see your halo
You know you're my saving grace

You're everything I need and more
It's written all over your face
Baby I can feel your halo
Pray it won't fade away

I can feel your halo halo halo
