Kelly Clarkson在与瑞恩·西克雷斯特（美国知名主持人）的最近一场访谈中，谈到了她极富情感色彩的歌曲'Piece By Piece’的创作过程，大多数都与经常缺席她成长过程的父亲有关。

刚刚重返美国偶像并演唱这首单曲的kelly（该竞赛类真人秀首季冠军）在采访中表示，这首歌曲真正灵感来自于她的父亲，Stephen Clarkson和她的丈夫， Brandon Blackstock，也是她女儿以及腹中宝宝的好爸爸。

"Watching myhusband love on his daughter all the time, you know, go to her events and justbe there and, like, be present is, like, hard to watch but beautiful towatch," Clarkson told Seacrest during the interview. "I know that mykids are going to have that.”

“我无时不刻能够感受到我丈夫对他女儿的疼爱，很多时候他都会去参加她的活动或出席她的演出，这些事情虽然做起来很难，但是真的让人感觉很美好，” Kelly在采访中如是说道，“我从一开始就知道我的孩子们会获得这样的关心与呵护。”

She added, "Y'allare totally going to make me cry on this interview. I'm so glad you can't seeme." 

她随即补充道，“说起这些事我眼泪恐怕会忍不住地掉下来，还好你们现在并不能看到我。”

她然后又接着解释在成长过程中，与父亲沟通联系的缺乏对自己的直接影响，但深层次的影响直到她自己成为人母才真正意识到。

"I don't eventhink I understood the gravity of [my relationship with my father] until I waspregnant with [River Rose]," she said. "I was like, 'I cannot imaginenot seeing this kid to his or her full potential and just seeing what she'sgoing to do, what she's going to be like.' … I don't think I knew how much this song." hataffected me until writing ['Piece By Piece']. I definitely didn't know how itwould affect me like it does when I sing it live because that's not fun. It'sawesome, but it's kind of sad that so many relate to t

“在我怀上我的大女儿之前，我甚至不认为我了解与父亲关系的重要性，”她说，“当时我感觉，我根本无法想象离开她的身边会是怎样，那意味着我无法亲眼看到她充分发挥自己的潜力，而她失去了我又会变得怎样，在创作这首歌之前我真的没有意识到父亲的缺席对我造成了多大的影响。在现场演唱之前我也并没有发觉这首歌对我内心深处的触动会如此之深，因为它的主题其实很严肃。演唱的体验很棒，但是一想到这首歌背后牵连的故事，还是会有种淡淡的忧伤。”

The 33-year-old hasspoken about her relationship with her father. In a 2015 interviewwith Glamour, the starexplained, "I don’t know what my fatherwent through as a child, and I don’t knowwhy he left and made the decisions he made, but everyone’s human ... he’s made me want to be that much more present in myfamily." 

这位33岁的女歌手曾经在公开场合下讲述过她与她父亲的关系。在2015年与Glamour的一次访谈中，她解释道，“孩提时代的我对我父亲的经历一无所知，我也不知道为什么他最终选择离开，但是人本性都是一样的。他使我承担起的家庭责任远远多于我本应承担的那份。”

但是她并不对她的父亲感到伤心。反之，她已经选择坦然接受事实。

"It's more of thatthing where you can try your hardest to salvage relationships -- and I did --but at the end of the day, if you keep getting hurt by someone because theyjust don't know how to properly love people, it's just not worth it," shetold Seacrest. 

You can watch heremotional performance of "Piece By Piece" on "AmericanIdol," but be warned, you'll probably shed a few tears. 

“这种情况更像是尽力去挽回一段支离破碎的关系，然而我也的确这么去做了，但是最后的最后，如果那些不懂得如何爱别人的人们一直在伤害你，那你也并不值得为之而努力了。”她告诉Seacrest道。

你也可以去看看她在美国偶像上的演出，但是要小心，你的眼角不免会有些湿润。
