小简介

1993 年以卡通「阿拉丁」主题曲「全新的世界」(A Whole New World)轰动全球的女歌手瑞姬娜蓓尔(Regina Belle),从小在教堂里受到音乐的洗礼。她的父母都是福音歌手,对於她的有心进入流行音乐界,非常反对,但是她在学校参加了乐队,不但学会多种管乐器,更在歌唱比赛中脱颖而出。后来,她进入大学,主修声乐与歌剧,课余开始在酒店卖唱,表演爵士与蓝调歌曲,获得热烈的反应,并被「曼哈顿」(Manhattans)合唱团聘任为女主唱。两年之后,她离开合唱团,展开独唱生涯,在蓝调歌坛很快的走红起来,并且应邀跟好些大牌歌手与团体合作。由於结婚生子,她曾暂别歌坛。复出之后,随即获选主唱「全新的世界」,这首歌荣获四项葛莱美奖,也让她名满国际。「如果我可以」,就是她复出首张专辑里面唱红的歌曲,相当受欢迎。不过,她并非这首歌曲的原唱者,第一个演唱的人,是资深的黑人女歌手南西威尔森(Nancy Wilson)。

Regina Belle emerged as a prolific, consistently engaging vocalist on the urban contemporary scene. Born in New Jersey, Belle's early experience was in gospel, though she was also attracted to R&B during her childhood. She studied trombone, tuba, and steel drums, and at 12 won a school contest singing the Emotions' "Don't Ask My Neighbors." Belle sang in a New Jersey vocal group, and studied opera and jazz in college. New York disc jockey Vaughn Harper introduced her to the Manhattans, and she began working as their opening act. Belle recorded a duet with them, "Where Did We Go Wrong," that was produced by Bobby Womack in 1986. She earned a solo Columbia contract in 1987, and the single "Please Be Mine" earned both praise and a number two R&B hit. A follow-up single, "So Many Tears," also made the R&B Top 20, and the hit "Without You," pairing her with Peabo Bryson, was the only memorable thing about the film Leonard, Part 6. Her second LP, Stay with Me, secured her success, and she went on to earn more acclaim. Releasing Passion in 1993, she returned five years later with Believe in Me, which was followed by 2001's This Is Regina! and 2004's Lazy Afternoon.
