HOSTLINK OPENING
Stephen Gately was one of the members of the Irish band Boyzone. Boyzone are one of the most successful boybands in history, who over the last seven years have notched up no less than six number one singles, four number one albums and played to millions of fans the world over. They have songs such as "All That I Need", "The Way You Make Me Feel", "Love Me For A Reason", "Baby Can I Hold You".
As a member of Boyzone, Stephen Gately becomes a household name. He also won Irish Personality of the Year. In 2000, Boyzone decided to go solo. Stephen was the first one to strike with his solo song.
His song, New Beginning, was released, and reached number 3 in the UK chart. Soon his debut album came out. From the album, the second single was the beautiful "I Believe". Taken from the soundtrack to the smash hit film of Billy Elliot, this song became another hit. Stephen was inspired to record this track after he had seen the film. Much like his own story, it chronicles a young boy achieving success in the face adversity. For Stephen, seven tremendous years with Boyzone has given him the most fantastic platform to launch the solo career he truly deserves.
Currently, Stephen is preparing to begin work on his second album. His third single, Stay, taken from New Beginning is due for release.

作为“男孩地带”的成员,Stephen Gately成为一个家喻户晓的名字。他曾赢得爱尔兰年度人物奖。2000年,Boyzone决定单飞,Stephen率先出了个人单曲。
他的单曲“新的开始”刚一发行,便登上英国排行榜第三名。很快他的首张个人专辑便发行了。专辑中的第二首单曲便是美丽的“深信不疑”。这首歌取自电影Billy Elliot,也是一首打榜歌曲。Stephen在看过电影之后,深受启发,便录了这首歌。影片很像他自己的故事,讲述一个年轻人经历磨难,取得成功的故事。对于Stephen来说,与Boyzone一起7年不平凡的经历,给了Stephen开始个人事业最好的起点。
目前,Stephen正在准备开始第二张个人专辑的工作。选自专辑《新的开始》中的第三个单曲《停留》即将发行。
I Believe 深信不疑
演唱者:Stenphen Gately
If I believe that I could do anything,
Could I spread my wings and say goodbye?
So many people told me I couldn't win
But look at me now
Here I am in heaven's sky
And sometimes I say a prayer
Wishing that you could be here with me Cos I believe
I believe in love, it's the best of everything
I believe in hope and the changes it can bring
If you believe then nothing can stand in your way
Just say, I believe
If hope's the house I wanna be living in
Baby, I've got one foot in the door
Yes I do
All the years of waiting for your approval dear
Well I realised I don't need it anymore
'Cause I'm stronger everyday,
Now I'm strong enough to say, I believe
I believe in love, it's the best of everything
I believe in hope and the changes it can bring
If you believe then nothing can stand in your way
I believe
It's a fact of life that we're all in the game
But it's still your call
But we all play it
Sometimes we win, sometimes we fall
But that's no reason just to give it up, cause after all
If you can't choose what to be
You can choose what to dream
And I believe
I believe in love, it's the best of everything
I believe in hope and the changes it can bring
If you believe then nothing can stand in your way
Just say, (oh) I believe
