一度放棄重拾音樂

曾經放棄音樂的她,因為想生命有不一樣,便憑著肌肉記憶、調音器和信心重拾音樂。「上天為你關了扇門,就必定會為你開啟另一扇窗」,《Try》是Mandy自己創作的歌曲,歌詞透露她由絕望到走出陰霾,尋回自己的經過。活潑的結他聲配合她優美流暢的歌聲,最終獲得全場觀眾的掌聲和歡呼聲,並得到評審團的金絲帶(Golden Buzzer)。

 Mandy Harvey -創作的《Try》歌詞 

I don't feel the way I used to
The sky is grey much more than it is blue
But I know one day I'll get through
And I'll take my place again
So I will Try I don't love the way I need to
You need more and I know that much is true
So I'll fight for our breakthrough
And I'll breathe in you again
If I would Try There is no one for me to blame
cause I know the only thing in my way
Is Me

I don't live the way I want to
That whole picture never came into view
And I'm tired of getting used to
The Day
So I will try If I would Try
