歌曲簡介

The Preacher's Wife專輯封面The Preacher's Wife專輯封面
1996年,惠特妮錄製、並和Mervyn Warren共同製作了“天使保鏢 (The Preacher's Wife):電影原聲帶”,實踐了她長期以來想要錄製福音專輯的願望。其中六首歌和亞特蘭大Greater Rising Star教堂的Georgia Mass唱詩班共同錄製。不同於之前的每一張專輯,惠特妮在15首歌曲中只演唱了14首,另外包括一首和福音音樂的傳奇人物Shirley Caesar合作的歌曲。這張原聲帶在全世界銷售了800萬張,成為有史以來銷量最高的福音專輯,亦使"I Believe in You and Me"和"Step by Step"兩首歌曲大為流行。這張專輯普遍得到正面的評價,像USA Today認為發現到了不同於先前專輯的情感上的深度。

歌詞

I Believe In You and Me
I Believe That we will be
In love eternally
Well as far as I can see
You Will Always be the one
For me (Oh yes’ you will)
And I believe in dreams again
I believe that love will never end
And like the river finds the sea
I Believe In You And Me
I was lost’ now I’m free
Cuz I believe In you and me
I will never leave your side
I will never hurt your pride
When all the chips are down’ baby
Then I will always be around
Just to be right where you are
My love’ you know I love you
I will never leave you out
I will always let you in
To places no-one’s ever been’
Deep inside’ can’t you see?
That I believe in you and me
Maybe I’m a fool
To feel the way I do
I will play the fool forever
Just to be with you forever
I believe in miracles
And love is the miracle
And yes’ baby you’re my dreame true
I was lost’ now I’m free’
Oh’ baby cuz i believe’ i do believe’ in you and me
See’ I was lost’ now I’m free
Cuz I believe in you and me.

主流媒體評論

  1. Billboard gave the song a positive review saying, "As she did with Dolly Parton's 'I Will Always Love You,' Houston redefines the composition with a soaring, glass-shattering performance that will leave her legions of fans breathless."
    2. J. D. Considine of The Baltimore Sun called the song "the Designated Hit Ballad" and added "[it] is pretty much what we've come to expect from Houston ― a slow, Streisand-esque build-up, a subtle sense of drama and a big, full-voiced payoff in the final chorus."
    3. Neil Strauss from The New York Times in his review for The Preacher's Wife Soundtrack, praised the song highly, stating "[it] is among the year's most virtuosic pop ballads."
    4. Elysa Gardner of Los Angeles Times wrote that the song "is a cheesy classic in the tradition of 'I Will Always Love You,' with an instantly familiar melody and a poignant, bolero-like arrangement."
