Alison Krauss---that kind of love

 说到Alison Krauss（艾莉森.克罗丝）就不能不提兰草音乐（Blue Grass），一种精致的，纯正的，原汁原味的音乐，很容易辨识。这种音乐有两三部和声，激烈的节奏，不受约束的情感。这"孤独而高亢"的声音产生于20年代末的"弦乐运动"（String-bandMovement），成名在来源于创始者Bill Monroe的乐队"兰草男孩"（The Blue Grass　Boys），兰草音乐被Bonnie Clyde，The Beverly Hillbillies在60年代末极力推动，赢得了一批全新的听众.今天，兰草音乐仍保持者极高的影响力，象著名乡村音乐人Alison Krauss就是一列。Alison出生于1971年7月23日Champaign, 16岁发行第一张个人专辑就立刻成为乐评家的最爱，18岁首获得葛莱美奖，11项葛莱美奖和无数乡村音乐奖项得主，蓝草音乐的发扬者.

Who would sell their soul for love?
Or waste one tear on compromise
Should be easy enough
To know a heartache in disguise
But the heart rules the mind
And the going gets rough
Pride takes the fall
When you find that kind of love

I can't help feeling like a fool
Since I lost that place inside
Where my heart knew its way
And my soul was ever wise
Once innocence was lost
There was not faith enough
Still my heart held on
When it found that kind of love

Though beauty is rare enough
Still we trust
Somehow we'll find it there
With no guarantee
It seems to me
At least it should be fair

But if it's only tears and pain
Isn't it still worth the cost
Like some sweet saving grace
Or a river we must cross
If we don't understand
What this life is made of
We learn the truth
When we find that kind of love
Cause when innocence is lost
There is not faith enough
We learn the truth
When we find that kind of love
