Kaley Cuoco, star of the hit TV show "The Big Bang Theory" and a life-long animal lover, was inspired by a painful accident to make beautiful music for homeless animals.
熱播美劇《生活大爆炸》的女星凱莉·庫克一直都很喜愛小動物。（今年九月）由于一次不小心摔傷而激發(fā)出要為無家可歸的小動物們獻歌的想法。

During her long hospital stay, Kaley's boyfriend, Christopher French of the?band Annie Automatic, stayed by her side and played his guitar for her.
她在醫(yī)院恢復期間，凱利的男友，Annie Automatic樂隊的克里斯多夫·弗蘭徹一直陪在她身邊，還彈吉他給她聽。

Seeking some distraction from the pain, she asked him to play something she could sing to. He strummed a playful version of "Somewhere Over the Rainbow.”
為了讓自己的注意力不放在腿部的疼痛上，她要求男友彈幾首她能唱的歌。于是他就彈奏了一個幽默版的“Somewhere Over the Rainbow。”

Soon they were laughing, and as they played various versions and traded choruses, it seemed as if the music was helping her overcome her discomfort.
他們還試了很多不同版本，甚至還來個合唱，很快他們就笑的前俯后仰。她感覺這首歌幫她戰(zhàn)勝了傷痛帶來的不適感。

And so, Kaley and Christopher decided to record the song in support of the The HSUS and?their works for animals.
因此凱利和克里斯多夫決定，要錄下這首歌來支持美國人道主義協(xié)會以及他們?yōu)楸Ｗo小動物付出的努力。

After Kaley was released from the hospital, they recorded their version of "Somewhere Over the Rainbow"in their living room instead of a studio, so Kaley wouldn't need to leave the house.
在凱利出院之后，他們選擇在起居室而不是錄音室來錄制這首他們自制版的“Somewhere Over the Rainbow”，這樣凱利就不用大費周章的出門錄歌了。
