(母親節 Edition) 歌曲分享: You Raise Me Up

I remembered I listened to this song before....but just recently both my mum and I have been hearing this song on radio and tv and so I finally looked up the song on the web! (Yip I can't believe why I didn't listen to this song when it was first released....must've been too busy back in varsity, because this song is just too nice and meaningful to ignore!!!!! : O)

Another great classic ballad song from Westlife. I would probably agree that it's one of their best songs too!!!! Simply because the composition of the song is nice and simple and meaningful...with the violin in the interlude...adding the Ireland feel to the song (which made the song appeared to be tailored for Westlife). No wonder it was used as the comeback hit in 2005 after Brian has left the band.

Anyway, enjoy the song (and the lyrics)!!! I have nothing more to say as the song and its lyrics are just simple and meaningful and powerful. haha it's pretty much self explanatory!!! : P And I shall dedicate this to my mum (which has become her recent favourite song) and to my dad too (although it's only Mothers' Day hehe!)!!! 母親節快樂!!! : ) 多謝你們的培育!!!! 多謝你們 for "raising me up" to become the person that I am today...多謝...!

(Part of the) Lyrics:

When I am down and oh my soul, so weary,
When troubles come and my heart burden be,
Then I am still and wait here in the silence,
Until you come and sit a while 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.
