Artist：Fantasia Barrino
Song：I?Believe

Have you ever reached a rainbow's end
And did you find your pot of gold
Ever catch a shooting star
And tell me how high did you soar
Ever felt like you were dreaming
Just to find that you're awake
And the magic that surrounds you
Can lift you up and guide you on your way

[Chorus:]
I can see it in the stars across the sky
Dreamt a hundred thousand dreams before
Now I finally realize
You see I've waited all my life for this moment to arrive
And finally yeah

When you look out in the distance
You see it never was that far
Ohhh No
Heaven knows your existance
And lead you to be everything you are
Ohhh
There's a time for every soul to fly
It's in the eyes of every child
It's the hope, the love that saves the world
And ohhh we should never let it go

[Chorus]

I believe in the impossible
If I reach deep within my heart
Overcome any obstacle
Won't let this dream fall apart
See I strive to be the very best
Shine my light for all to see
Cause anything is possible
When you believe yeah

[Chorus]

Ohh Yeah

Love keeps liftin me higher
Liftin me higher
Love keeps liftin me higher
I said love keeps liften
Love keeps liften me
I said Love keeps liften
Love keeps liften me higher
Said love keeps liften me higher
I said love keeps liften me high

參加《American Idol》以前，F(xiàn)antasia Barrino從沒(méi)隱瞞她是一個(gè)未婚媽媽的身分，回憶帶女兒Zion謀生的日子，怎說(shuō)也不好過(guò)，或許這分背城借一的戰(zhàn)意，正是她能擊敗逾萬(wàn)名參賽者、最終獲得6500萬(wàn)觀眾投票支持的原動(dòng)力吧﹖還記得當(dāng)大會(huì)宣布她險(xiǎn)勝對(duì)手Diana DeGarmo，榮膺第3屆《American Idol》冠軍時(shí)，她激動(dòng)得擁抱對(duì)手并嚎啕大哭﹕「我真的很努力，終于可以跟Kelly Clarkson擁有同一榮譽(yù)了﹗」Fantasia Barrino的勝利，不單標(biāo)志這個(gè)比賽并沒(méi)有輕視未婚媽媽，更重要的是，她打破了美國(guó)電視觀眾有種族歧視的說(shuō)法。

擅唱黑人騷靈及R&B音樂(lè)的Fantasia Barrino，在首張細(xì)碟《I Believe》中，初次展示了她極具爆炸性和感染力的騷靈唱腔，此碟不單順利登上美國(guó)Billboard細(xì)碟榜No.1，更連續(xù)霸占R&B細(xì)碟榜12星期冠軍，輕易獲得金唱片銷量，相比小師姊Kelly Clarkson，可謂不遑多讓。

巧合地，這對(duì)師姊妹最近亦同期推出新碟，不同的是Fantasia Barrino的這張?zhí)幣蟮禙ree Yourself》主攻較為成熟的黑人音樂(lè)市場(chǎng)。新作請(qǐng)來(lái)「Hip-Hop教母」Missy Elliott作曲兼監(jiān)制，由她操刀的大碟同名歌曲《Free Yourself》，盡展其「騷」得要命的感性唱腔，乍聽(tīng)之下還以為是另一騷靈小天后Joss Stone的作品﹗

既然出動(dòng)Missy Elliott壓陣，二人合唱一曲《Selfish（I Want U 2 Myself）》當(dāng)然少不了「Hip-Hop教母」的拿手好戲﹔另一重點(diǎn)推介是《Baby Mama》，F(xiàn)antasia Barrino以無(wú)私的母愛(ài)唱出對(duì)乖女Zion的感覺(jué)，都說(shuō)天下父母愛(ài)護(hù)子女如出一轍，哪有分誰(shuí)是單親誰(shuí)是未婚？
