戴安娜?克瑞兒 (Diana Krall) 這位被《時(shí)代》雜志形容為“有著漂亮金發(fā)和抑郁的眼睛，還有著危險(xiǎn)的過去”的加拿大爵士女伶絕對(duì)是當(dāng)今爵士界最具影響力的女歌手之一，三屆葛萊美獎(jiǎng)得主。聽Diana Krall的歌，會(huì)讓人情不自禁地愛上這種浮世情懷的味道。她渾厚卻不低沉、溫暖而不粘膩的嗓音，加上絕佳的演唱功夫、一流的鋼琴彈奏技巧，非常能夠表現(xiàn)出爵士樂的精髓所在。這首《Narrow Daylight》字里行間所透露的就是對(duì)返璞歸真的一種向往。

Narrow daylight entered my room

Shining hours were brief

Winter is over
Summer is near
Are we stronger than we believe?

I walked through halls of reputation

Among the infamous too

As the camera clings to the common thread
Beyond all vanity

Into a gaze to shoot you through

Is the kindness we count upon
Hidden in everyone?

I stepped out in a sunlit groove

Although deep down I wished it would rain

Washing away all the sadness and tears

That will never fall so heavily again

Is the kindness we count upon

Hidden in everyone

I stood there in the salt spray air
Felt the wind sweeping over my face
Ran up through the rocks to the old
wooden cross
It's a place where I can find some peace

Narrow daylight entered my room
Shining hours were brief

Winter is over
Summer is near

Are we stronger than we believe
