toni braxton <you mean the world to me>

独孤飘零

Toni Braxton是90年代最受欢迎的R&B女歌手之一，她同时也是成功的商业歌手。她能够迎合各大阵营的口味：对R&B听众来说她的声音够骚灵，在现代成人乐上够柔和；对成年人来说够老练，对年轻一代则够撩人；能够抚慰女性受伤的心灵，同时也让男人消魂。依靠着这些特质，Toni接二连三地获得千万销量的肯定，当然随之而来的是一连串排行佳作，Un-break My Heart（别让我伤心）便是其中之一，被评为摇滚时代逗留时间最长的流行冠军单曲。
Toni1968年10月7日生于美国马里兰州，父亲是个严苛的牧师，不但被禁止接触流行文化，就算是牛仔裤也不允许穿。她母亲是一个受过专业训练的歌手，时常鼓励她和几个姐妹在教堂演唱（福音歌曲是Braxton家族唯一允许演唱的音乐）。这几个姐妹们经常在父母外出时偷偷收看灵魂列车电视。渐渐地，她们的父母转变了态度，放宽了严厉的家教，允许Toni发展自己的音乐风格。由于她嗓音低沉，她经常演唱像Luther Vandross, Stevie Wonder, Michael McDonald以及Chaka Khan的歌曲。她在当地和姐妹们的表演小有成就，并在高中后准备从事音乐教师的工作。然而当她在加油站唱歌消遣的时候被Bill Pettaway（歌曲作者）发现，并在他的帮助下她和她的姐妹们作为演唱组合在1990年同Arista唱片公司签约，她随即辍学从事歌唱事业。



You Mean The World To Me
歌手：Toni Braxton 专辑：Toni Braxton

If you could give me one good reason
Why I should believe you
Believe in all the thing that you tell
I would sure like to believe you
My heart wants to receive you
Just make me know that you are sincere
You know I'd love for you to lead me
And follow thur completely
So won't you give me all I ask for
And if you give your very best
To bring me happiness
I'll show you just how much I adore you

Cause you mean the world to me
You are my everything
I swear the only thing that matters
Matters to me
Oh baby, baby, baby, baby
Baby, cause you mean so much
To me

Now it's gonna take some workin'
But I believe you're worth it
Long as your intention are good
So good
There is just one way to show it
And boy I hope you know it
That no one could love you like I could
Lord knows I want to trust you
And always how I'd love you
I'm not sure if love is enough
And I will not be forsaken
And I hope there's no mistakin'
So tell me that you'll always be true

Cause you mean the world to me
You are my everything
I swear the only thing that matters
Matters to me
Oh baby, baby, baby, baby
Baby, cause you mean so much
To me

There's a feeling in my heart
That I know I can't escape
So please don't let me fall
Don't let it be too late
There's a time when words are good
And they just get in the way
So show me how you feel
Baby I'm for real
Oh baby, baby, baby, baby, baby

Cause you mean the world to me
You are my every thing
I swear the only thing that matters
Matter to me
Oh baby, baby, baby, baby
Baby, cause you mean so much
To me
