唱盘开始转动；彷如玻璃般玲珑剔透的钢琴、弦乐与吉他悠然响起，女主唱清澈灵透的嗓音，娓娓唱出 "Stay Awake"，迪斯尼经典动画「欢乐满人间」（MaryPoppins，1964）的主题曲；轻缓如民谣般的唱法，将这首 Richard M. Sherman与 Robert B. Sherman 的名作，诠释得彷如梦境中传来的天籁，所有世间烦嚣，此时此刻，都遁入虚无之中了。接下来的 "Somewhere Over the Rainbow"，同样耳熟能详的曲调，却多了一份清新、温柔，而朦胧如雾的背景音乐，更令人忍不住耽溺于那有如彩虹般的梦幻感。接下来，Louis Armstrong 诠释过的What A Wonderful World 与爵士大师 Henry Mancini 的 Moon River 这两首歌也会让人忍不住跟着哼唱起来，Karen Peris 那出自天主教唱诗班鲜嫩欲滴的嗓音，对比起 Armstrong 的沧桑，别有一番趣味。而 Moon River 的吉他伴奏，更赋予这首浪漫歌曲一种甜美的节奏感，聆听感受大不相同，却一样美好。 sVk$x:k1M

幻梦氤氲如诗的 " Somewhere A Star Shines For Everyone" 之后，演奏曲 "Prelude In A" 的吉他，有着鲁特琴般的静谧感，声声勾人心弦；接下来芭芭拉史翠珊的 "Once Upon A Summertime" 在 Karen 清唱方式呈现之下，彷如天使的吟唱，美得让人几乎要睁不开眼睛；而电影「真善美」中最着名的插曲"Edelweiss" 则彷佛一阵和煦春风吹拂过山顶，温暖如爱人怀抱；"By-lo" 耳熟能详的童谣旋律，则是母亲所能唱出最温柔的摇篮曲，"It Is Well With My Soul " 这首 19 世纪的福音歌曲则让人有灵魂终得歇息的平静感，最终曲 "Now The Day Is Over"同样是 19 世纪的作品，出自圣经诗篇 91:4-5 的歌词，足以为脑海带来一片圣洁清新的感受。 #rO8K f

对 The Innocence Mission 来说，这张《 Now The Day Is Over 》并非为了要展现任何创作企图或自我意识，而是很简单地想表现出音乐的美丽；众多耳熟能详的旋律，如梦似幻的音乐氛围，女主唱清新如黄莺出谷的嗓音……一切的一切彷佛都在告诉你：抛开闲言闲语、繁杂琐事吧：生命，其实可以很简单，纯洁，美好。 dz
