介绍:   乡村歌手Brad Paisley于1972年10月28日出生在美国西弗吉尼亚州的Glen Dale,在他8岁的时候收到了祖父送给他的一把吉他,这成了他走进乡村音乐的第一步,9岁的时候,他第一次在公众面前表演,那是在一座教堂里,他的吉他和演唱天分也第一次被人们所了解。13岁的时候他开始自己创作歌曲,并且和自己的吉他恩师Clarence "Hank" Goddard一起组建了的乐队the C-Notes,同时还邀请了Clarence "Hank" Goddard的两个老朋友加入。在纳什维尔Belmont大学的几年成为了Paisley音乐生涯最关键的一段时间,与美国作曲家、作者与出版者协会(ASCAP)的接触,使他不久就得到了百代(EMI Music)唱片公司的工作。


"Letter To Me",现在写信的人不怎么多了,大多都是E-Mail代替了,这首歌用淳朴的语调叙述着平常的事,其中却蕴涵着不平常的情感。


歌词:


Song:Letter To Me
Artist:Brad Paisley


If I could write a letter to me
And send it back in time to myself at 17
First I\'d prove it\'s me by saying look under your bed
There\'s a Skoal can and a Playboy no one else would know you hid
And then I\'d say I know it\'s tough
When you break up after seven months
And yeah I know you really liked her and it just don\'t seem fair
All I can say is pain like that is fast and it\'s rare 2


And oh you got so much going for you going right
But I know at 17 it\'s hard to see past Friday night
She wasn\'t right for you
And still you feel like there\'s a knife sticking out of your back
And you\'re wondering if you\'ll survive
You\'ll make it through this and you\'ll see
You\'re still around to write this letter to me


At the stop sign at Tomlinson and Eighth
Always stop completely 3 don\'t just tap your breaks
And when you get a date with Bridgett make sure the tank is full
On second thought forget it that one turns out kinda cool
Each and every time you have a fight
Just assume 4 you\'re wrong and dad is right
And you really should thank Mrs. Brinkman
She spent so much extra time


It\'s like she sees the diamond underneath
And she\'s just polishin\' you \'til you shine


And oh you got so much going for you going right
But I know at 17 it\'s hard to see past Friday night
Tonight\'s the bonfire rally
But you\'re staying home instead because if you fail Algebra
Mom and dad will kill you dead
Trust me you\'ll squeak 5 by and get a C
And you\'re still around to write this letter to me


You\'ve got so much up ahead
You\'ll make new friends
You should see your kids and wife
And I\'d end by saying have no fear
These are nowhere near the best years of your life


I guess I\'ll see you in the mirror
When you\'re a grown man
P.S. go hug Aunt Rita every chance you can


And oh you got so much going for you going right
But I know at 17 it\'s hard to see past Friday night
I wish you\'d study Spanish
I wish you\'d take a typing class
I wish you wouldn\'t worry, let it be
I\'d say have a little faith and you\'ll see


If I could write a letter to me
To me
