My Favorite English SongEveryone has an English song in his heart and I am of no exception.I can clearly remember how the song became a part of my life. It was in the terrible mood that I walked by a CD shop which was playing English songs. Curiosity led me to walk into the shop and I loved the song immediately when the lyrics “I believe I can fly”was sung. In the meanwhile, my heart was brightened and hope was full of my eyesight. From then on, I have had my own English song: I Believe I Can Fly. This song was written, produced and performed by R. Kelly and was featured as the soundtrack to the 1996 motion picture Space Jam. Now, let’s appreciate the glamour of this song.The Name of the Song: I Believe I Can Fly Songwriters: Kelly, Robert;Lyrics:I used to think that I could not go onAnd life was nothing but an awful songBut now I know the meanin' of true loveI'm leanin' on the everlasting armsIf I can see it then I can do itIf I just believe it, there's nothing to itI believe I can flyI believe I can touch the skyI think about it every night and day Spread my wings and fly awayI believe I can soarI see me running through that open door I believe I can fly, I believe I can flyI believe I can flySee I was on the verge of breakin' down Sometimes silence can seem so loud There are miracles in life I must achieve But first I know it starts inside of me ohIf I can see it then I can be itIf I just believe it, there's nothing to itI believe I can flyI believe I can touch the skyI think about it every night and day Spread my wings and fly awayI believe I can soarI see me runnin' through that open door I believe I can fly, I believe I can flyI believe I can flyHey 'cuz I believe in meIf I can see it then I can do itIf I just believe it, there's nothing to itI believe I can flyI believe I can touch the skyI think about it every night and day Spread my wings and fly awayI believe I can soarI see me runnin' through that open door I believe I can fly, I believe I can flyI believe I can flyHey if I just spread my wingsI can flyI can flyI can fly, heyIf I just spread my wingsI can flyFly eye, eyeEndA good song is simply referred to the music which not only can touch a person’s heart and soul, but also wins universal prime. As for me, there are thousands of remarkable English songs in the world. However, “I believe I can fly” is the only one that I called it as my favorite English song. The reasons that I choose this song as my favorite song can be concluded into three parts.Primarily, there is no denying that the lyrics are easy enough for us to understand, for they have few complicated words. Another advantage of this song is the repeatability of sentences. As a result, I can sing the song without thinking.Secondarily, the melody is so charming that I can not help myself loving it. What’s more, it is magical that the feeling for the song will change by different emotion. Take me as an example, my feeling of the song was comfortable when I was relaxed; then, the feeling switched to inspiring when I was in a blue mood. Tha t’s why this song has been being popular among us.Last but not the least; I worship the spirit of R. Kelly. Generally speaking, almost all of songs represent a story. In R. Kelly‘s teenage, he had had a dream to become a basketball player. Unfortunately, his way tothe basketball stage came to an end when he was thirteen years old. On that day, he was about to cycle when some troubled teens robbed his bike and Kelly’s shoulder got shot. So far, a part of the bullet has hidden in Kelly’s shoulder. To some degree, God provided Kelly with another opportunity to get involved in music. After several years’ endeavor, Kelly have been being a representative best seller of R&B. Above all, Kelly has been pushing forward by perseverance. If I were him, I would have abandoned myself. It is outstanding that a man have overcome twists and turns physically and mentally and still made such great achievements constantly.As a matter of fact, He wrote this song for Michael Jordon, a very famous basketball player who jumps very high. From my perspective, this song is for R. Kelly himself as well. “I believe I can fly, I believe I can touch the sky”the lyric written shows the desire of success from the bottom of Kelly’s heart. Moreover, it spurs me on being positive and energetic no matter how awful a situation is. In addition, I love these lyrics,” cuz I believe in me. If I can see it then I can do it. If I just believe it, there's nothing to it”. I think the lyrics mean that because of hope, everything is possible. Just because Kelly has been holding hope in his mind, he gained rich fruits on his own. Furthermore, successful as he is, he never stops sparing every effort on his career.All in all, the song is inspirational -- it tries to tell everybody thatwe can get a goal as long as we have hope in our mind. Under no circumstances can we submit to difficulties and obstacles. There is no one but longs for success. In my point of view, I would like an adventurous life rather than smooth life. Only if you experienced everything can your life be as colorful as a rainbow.。
