电视剧《创世纪》插曲--《Promise don't come easy》

 歌手：Caron Nightingale

Caron Nightingale 的姓氏 Nightingale 在英文中的本义是一种歌喉婉转动听的鸟儿——夜莺。人如其名，Caron Nightingale 的嗓音也像夜莺那样动听，让人闻之感动。在她至今已长达22年的音乐生涯中，这位来自加拿大多伦多的才女从事过作曲、演唱、制作和发行，赢得过无数的奖项。这首《Promises don't come easy》是她的一首名曲，曾经被香港电视剧《创世纪》选作插曲。这首歌以内心独白的方式，对于应该如何对待感情进行了反思，说出了 Promises Don't Come Easy 的心声。这首歌中 Nightingale 温暖的中音与蔡琴颇有些相似，舒缓的演唱娓娓道来，引起听者的共鸣。加上上口的旋律，使之成为一首百听不厌的好歌。
