熱愛生命的 Susan Boyle

Susan Boyle,一個平凡無奇的47歲中年女仕,她來自英國蘇格蘭的鄉下小鎮,卻憑藉參加英國的「Britain's Got Talent」比賽,引吭高歌演譯舞台劇 Les Misérables 「悲慘世界」(又譯孤星淚) 的「I Dreamed a Dream」而一鳴驚人,讓那些只觀其表的人大為震撼,成為千萬網民的追捧。明顯地,小人物也可以有不平凡的時候,而機會是不會忘記那些做好準備的人們!
悲慘世界是由克勞德-米歇爾·勳伯格(Claude-Michel Schönberg)和阿蘭·鮑伯利(Alain Boublil)共同創作的一部音樂劇,改編自維克多·雨果的同名小說。故事以法國大革命為背景,講述主人公Jean Valjean在多年前遭判重刑,假釋後計劃重生做人,改變社會,但卻遇上種種困難。 來源: wikipedia



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
When 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 hopes apart
As they turn your dreams to shame.

And still I dream he'll come to me
And we will live our lives 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 seems
Now life has killed
The dream I dreamed.
