沪江英乐独家专稿 提到Snow Patrol，你一定会想到两首歌——《Run》和《Chasing Cars》。日前，06年英国选秀节目《The X Factor》的冠军Leona Lewis翻唱了这首经典的《Run》点击试听Leona Lewis《Run》，立马成为全英国最畅销的下载单曲，歌曲打榜首周更是获得了英国单曲榜的冠军。Snow Patrol乐队的《Run》收录在他们的第三张专辑《Final Straw》中，这首歌在当年的英国单曲榜上取得了第五的最高名次，这一成功使他们跻身主流乐队。
2008年12月，Snow Patrol乐队主唱Gary Lightbody接受采访表示，“Leona Lewis在翻唱这首歌前，一定用了很长的时间去揣摩歌词，并且积极的思考如何将歌曲完美的诠释。我觉得她的翻唱很出众。虽然我并不是选秀节目《The X-Factor》的粉丝，但是当出现了像Leona Lewis这样具有天赋的歌手，我不能不关注。她在今后的20年内一定会取得更好的成就，她是下一个惠特尼·休斯顿（Whitney Houston）！”
Artist：Snow Patrol
Song：Run
I'll sing it one last time for you
then we really have to go
you've been the only thing that's right
in all I've done
and I can barely look at you
but every single time I do
I know we'll make it anywhere
anywhere from here
light up, light up
as if you have a choice
even if you cannot hear my voice
I'll be right beside you dear
louder, louder
and we'll run for our lives
I can hardly speak I understand
why you can't raise your voice to say
to think I might not see those eyes
it makes it so hard not to cry
and as we say our long goodbye
I nearly do
light up, light up
as if you have a choice
even if you cannot hear my voice
I'll be right beside you dear
louder, louder
and we'll run for our lives
I can hardly speak I understand
why you can't raise your voice to say
slower, slower
we don't have time for that
all I want is to find an easier way
to get out of our little head
have heart my dear
we're bound to be afraid
even if it's just for a few days
making up for all this mess
light up, light up
as if you have a choice
even if you cannot hear my voice
I'll be right beside you dear
