《Shrek》<怪物史莱克>主题曲-两首
1973年出生的洛福斯.温莱特（Rufus Wainwright）从小在加拿大蒙特利尔长大，双亲Loudon Wainwright和Kake Mcgarrigle都是民谣音乐界的杰出人物。他从小跟着母亲、阿姨、妹妹巡回表演，14岁时已获得加拿大朱诺音乐奖最具潜力新人奖，而同时他的单曲“I’m A-Runnin”也获得加拿大Genie奖（如同美国奥斯卡电影奖）最佳电影主题曲提名。Rufus Wainwright青少年时期醉心于歌剧，更视dith Piaf、Al Jolson、Judy Garland为偶像，后来他在纽约州求学期间，才把对古典乐的兴趣转移至流行和摇滚乐。Rufus Wainwright是个才华洋溢、不可多得的歌手和词曲创作者，1998年，以同名专辑《Rufus Wainwright》出道即被滚石杂志誉为最佳新进艺人，并且也被纽约时代杂志、娱乐周刊、纽约人杂志、洛杉机时代杂志、华盛顿邮报评定为该年度十大最佳专辑，1999年还获得加拿大朱诺音乐奖最佳另类专辑奖。2001年5月，他为电影《Shrek》原声带演唱了一首翻自Leonard Cohen的歌曲“Hallelujah”，即发行了专辑《Poses》，这张专辑以走精致、不落俗套、具大胆音速结构的流行音乐再度获得盛赞。接下来他开始了历时一年的巡回演唱，还和Tori Amos同场表演。在《断臂山》里面他也参与了创作，像King of the road等等。2003年，在金牌制作人Marius devries(Bjork、Madonna、David Bowie的御用制作人)统筹下打算推出类似双专辑的计划，第一张企划推出《Want One》，而后续的《Want Two》也计划再行推出。Rufus Wainwright在个人第三张专辑《Want One》中又用他擅于结合感官与环境的叙事文笔层次超越框架局限，因为他相信歌曲自己会说话，只要听者用心聆听，自然会知道他想阐述的意念。许多时髦风尚的开创者都称Rufus Wainwright是个技艺高超的出色艺人，也是新世代中最受期待的后续人选！
I've heard there was A secret chord
That David played, and It pleased the Lord
But you don't really care For music, do you?
It goes like this: The fourth, the fifth
The minor fall, the major lift
The baffled king Composing Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Your faith was strong But you needed proof
You saw her bathing On the roof
Her beauty and the Moonlight overthrew you
She tied you to a kitchen chair
She broke your throne
And she cut your hair
And from your lips She drew the Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Maybe I've been here before
I know this room,I've walked this floor
I used to live alone before I knew you
I've seen your flag on the marble arch
Love is not a victory march
It's a cold and It's a broken Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah
There was a time You let me know
What's real and going on below
But now you never show It to me, do you?
I remember when I moved in, you
Your holy dark Was moving too
And every breath we drew Was Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Maybe there's a God above
And all I ever Learned from love
Was how to shoot At someone who outdrew you
It's not a cry you can hear at night
It's not somebody Who's seen the light
It's a cold and It's a broken Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah
《Shrek 》主题曲, Dana Glover - It Is You (I Have Loved)
Artist: Dana Glover
Song: It Is You (I Have Loved)
There is something that I see
In the way you look at me
There\'s a smile, there\'s a truth in your eyes
But an unexpected way
On this unexpected day
Could it mean this is where I belong
It is you I have loved all along
It\'s no more mystery
It is finally clear to me
You\'re the home my heart searched for so long
And it is you I have loved all along
There were times I ran to hide
Afraid to show the other side
Alone in the night without you
But now I know just who you are
And I know you hold my heart
Finally this is where I belong
It is you I have loved all along
It\'s no more mystery
It is finally clear to me
You\'re the home my heart searched for so long
And it is you I have loved all along
Over and over
I\'m filled with emotion
Your love, it rushes through my veins
And I am filled
With the sweetest devotion
As I, I look into your perfect face
It\'s no more mystery
It is finally clear to me
You\'re the home my heart searched for so long
And it is you I have loved
It is you I have loved
It is you I have loved all along
