歌手簡介
山形瑞秋 Rachael Yamagata的父親是日本移民，母親是德國、義大利混血，身兼三種血液的Rachael Yamagata從一出生起，就要比旁人多了一種博大精深的文化優勢，山形瑞秋的日本名字或許還只是一種風雅，但骨子裡那種東方式神經質的線條，卻注定了她與同類女歌手競爭時的先天優勢，有Yoko Ono作為榜樣，一切早已說明。儘管19歲就加入芝加哥的Funk樂團Bumpus，但Rachael Yamagata多元化的性格里卻顯然無法容忍被限制於一種音樂風格的拘束里，對她曲風有影響的倒是她和樂團吉它手男友的分手，使她以更感性化的情愛刺激為基礎引導出自己的音樂走向。

樂曲賞析
山形瑞秋不僅是從這些海岸多年來最有天賦的歌手之一，而且她真的很可愛。我無法想像這首歌在其發布24小時之內有多么的火。多么美麗的文字，她自己創作並演唱歌曲。山形瑞秋那美麗動人的聲音一定能打動你!
