音乐咖啡厅:Fairy tale 童话-Toni Braxton
Toni Braxton是90年代最受欢迎的R&B女歌手之一，她同时也是成功的商业歌手。她能够迎合各大阵营的口味：对R&B听众来说她的声音够骚灵，在现代成人乐上够柔和；对成年人来说够老练，对年轻一代则够撩人；能够抚慰女性受伤的心灵，同时也让男人消魂。依靠着这些特质，Toni接二连三地获得千万销量的肯定，当然随之而来的是一连串排行佳作，Un-break My Heart（别让我伤心）便是其中之一，被评为摇滚时代逗留时间最长的流行冠军单曲。
Toni1968年10月7日生于美国马里兰州，父亲是个严苛的牧师，不但被禁止接触流行文化，就算是牛仔裤也不允许穿。她母亲是一个受过专业训练的歌手，时常鼓励她和几个姐妹在教堂演唱（福音歌曲是Braxton家族唯一允许演唱的音乐）。这几个姐妹们经常在父母外出时偷偷收看灵魂列车电视。渐渐地，她们的父母转变了态度，放宽了严厉的家教，允许Toni发展自己的音乐风格。由于她嗓音低沉，她经常演唱像Luther Vandross, Stevie Wonder 1, Michael McDonald以及Chaka Khan的歌曲。她在当地和姐妹们的表演小有成就，并在高中后准备从事音乐教师的工作。然而当她在加油站唱歌消遣的时候被Bill 2 Pettaway（歌曲作者）发现，并在他的帮助下她和她的姐妹们作为演唱组合在1990年同Arista唱片公司签约，她随即辍学从事歌唱事业。
英文歌词:
Fairy tale-toni braxton
and if i was wrong, i know i don't deserve this
don't stay too long, i need to hear those words you use to tell me
from way back when we were just friends
before this love affair began
tell me how i love you wins
or how a broken heart can mend
just tell me this is not the end
please tell me now
how the fairy tale begins
or how it was supposed to end
please tell me that part again
ad libs
now tell me what's wring, i never meant to hurt you, no baby, ooh
was it the home, the car, or darling all those things we thought we needed
tell me even if it ain't true
but baby please don't say we're through
tell me how i love you wins
or how a broken heart can mend
just tell me this is not the end
please tell me now
how the fairy tale begins
or how it was supposed to end
please tell me that part again
ad libs
i wanna know that
feelin' that's from way back
a time when it was true that, love was sweet and innocent
when you and i could still be friends
make all the wrong be right again
where true love never has to end
ad libs
tell me how i love you wins
or how a broken heart can mend
just tell me this is not the end
please tell me now
how the fairy tale begins
or how it was supposed to end
please tell me that part again
i really beated by this song
