优于别人，并不高贵，真正的高贵应该是优于过去的自己。——海明威

《When The Sunny Sky Has Gone》，选自来自苏格兰创作女歌手Fiona Mackenzie的专辑《Elevate》，也在收录在《The Absolute Sound 2011》（绝对的声音 2011）专辑中。关于这张专辑的介绍，只找到了英文资料。专辑的作曲部分都是Fiona Mackenzie一手包办，还有8首歌的歌词。听《When The Sunny Sky Has Gone》或会有种似曾相识的感觉，Fiona 的风格有点像一位发烧女声Mary Black，但Fiona的声线比较娇柔，更易入耳。

The captivating debut solo album by Scottish singer/songwriter Fiona MacKenzie.

These are songs with a distinct, northern European character. Her writing and singing technique are affected by a spectrum of influences spanning Hungarian folk music, Nick Cave, Kate Bush, Cocteau Twins and Bjork, as well as the Scottish and Gaelic traditions.

Co-produced by The Blue Nile producer Calum Malcolm, traditional acoustic instruments and electronic elements blend to create a forward-thinking music that remains rooted in heritage. Mackenzie's emotive self-penned lyrics paint a picture and the sound at times is hauntingly Celtic.

Born and raised on the Isle of Lewis, off the west coast of Scotland, she has been writing and performing songs in English and Gaelic since her early teens.

File alongside such artists as Solveig Slettajhell and Julie Fowlis. "Elevate" will be launched at Celtic Connections 2008 in Glasgow.
