歲月拾遺

我愛男孩團體，真的愛。

"You Raise Me Up"

When I am down and, oh my soul, so weary;
When troubles come and my heart burdened be;
Then, I am still and wait here in the silence,
Until you come and sit awhile with me.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up... To more than I can be.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up... To more than I can be.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up... To more than I can be.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up... To more than I can be.

You raise me up... To more than I can be.


誰說西城男孩締造過的流行王朝沒有復辟的可能？看看他們最近的表現：單曲"You Raise Me Up"不但為他們攫獲第13個全英冠軍單曲紀錄，同時本張專輯【Face To Face】也同步登上全英專輯榜冠軍，不但讓西城男孩第五度空降全英專輯榜冠軍王座，同時也讓他們首度嚐到單曲專輯同步稱雄的榮耀。

在這之前，已經出道七年的西城男孩也像許多在歌壇已經小有資歷的團體一樣，面臨瓶頸，除了全球性的男孩團體風潮出現減褪之勢外，原來的團員布萊恩單飛，也或多或少衝擊他們的士氣。還好其他四位團員還是撐了下去，堅持以一貫的態度將最好聽的音樂傳送給歌迷，而歌迷們也相對地以熱情回應來支撐西城男孩的理念，這樣的良性循環，讓西城男孩重新以「男孩霸主、情歌之王」姿態，繼續用他們溫暖舒服的歌聲，撫慰更多聽眾的心。
