Mariah Carey - My Saving Grace

之前在一位弟兄的站中看到這首歌，雖然已經很久不聽流行歌曲了，不過當學生的時候，倒是很喜歡瑪凱利小姐的歌，那時候她也是爆紅的。這首收錄在她的專輯Charmbrecelet的My Saving Grace.還沒聽之前，心中有種許多當初唱福音音樂出身的歌手，踏入演藝圈後，靠至與天俱來的的歌唱恩賜受人青睞﹝ex,惠妮休斯頓、蓮恩萊姆斯...)，卻被形形色色的誹聞醜陋污染之後感到惋惜...

聽完之後，不過我相信每個人都能有感謝上帝的時刻，這份深深的敬拜就讓人的靈魂跳脫是更高的層次，真實且誠實的跟自己對話，因為有祂在聽。

ps:原來海豚音是真實的，我一直以為是電腦音效做出來的效果！
