關於唱片:
《純凈》專輯中,Hayley Westenra結合了人與自然***存之美,演唱極具特色的紐西蘭傳統部落毛利 (Maori) 歌謠「波卡列卡列安那」( Pokarekare Ana ),Hayley Westenra的歌聲無懈可擊,動人的詮釋更是無可取代。古典名曲註入時代新意後的「別說再見」( Never Say Goodbye )柔軟人心,還有愛情小品主打歌「黑月亮」( Who Painted The Moon Black ),猶如空谷天籟,曲曲將Hayley Westenra的透明音色質感再完美升華,只消幾個音符,聽者無不立時被純凈美聲徹底征服!
英國當紅跨界男高音羅素華生,在壹次奧克蘭的演唱會期間與Hayley Westenra合作說到: 「第 壹次在紐西蘭遇到Hayley Westenra,我看到這個嬌小的女孩子時心裏想,哇!她的聲音真的太不可思議了,我只有壹個字可以形容她,那就是「天使般的」( angelic )。我認為她是壹個「小小奇跡」!( "The first time I met her in New Zealand, I saw this tiny little girl and I thought wow! This voice came out and it was incredible、 The only word that I can use to describe it is “angelic”、 I think she's a “little phenomenon!" (Russell Watson)
NEVER SAY GOODBYE
If I could take this moment forever
Turn the pages of my mind
To another place and time
We would never say goodbye
If I could find the words I would speak them
Then I wouldn't be tongue-tied
When I looked into your eyes
We would never say goodbye
If I could stop the moon ever rising
Day would not become the night
Wouldn't feel this cold inside
And we'd never say goodbye
I wish that our dreams were frozen
Then our hearts would not be broken
When we let each other go...
If I could steal this moment forever
Paint a picture-perfect smile
So our story stayed alive
We would never say goodbye
