97 年， R.Kelly 为电影“星际奇兵”所作的主题曲“ I Believe I can Fly ”再度将他的地位推至天王的级别，光是单曲的销售量便超过了 5 百万张，除此之外，也为他获得了 98 年格莱美“年度***电影主题曲”，“年度*** R&B 单曲”以及“年度*** R&B 歌手”三项大奖。

在黑人蓝调歌曲大师 R.Kelly 的口中这首他最著名的歌曲，似乎从开始听的时候便带上了一种悲挚而直入人心的情感。 R&B 这种乐风特别需要感情的投入来演绎其中所蕴涵的精神感召。有时候 R&B 跟灵歌的风格不是太好分，但是至少有一点是可以区别的，灵歌多数是赞美上主和灵魂的修养， R&B 则是在情感和最贴近生活的地方徘徊，激发人心灵中最深和最神秘的情绪并将之表现。毫无例外两种音乐对歌手的要求都特别高，一是对声线的要求，二是音乐和情感交融演绎的功底。在黑人女性当中我们都知道的有惠特妮·休斯顿，而现在歌坛最负盛名的 R&B 男歌手当中 R.Kelly 绝对是前五名。他的声线不是太浑厚，但是在高音方面却是一绝，甚至能跟著名的“高嗓”天后席拉·迪翁相比肩。 R.Kelly 最出色不仅仅是演唱和做歌手，他还是一个非常好的制作人，一手制作了多位黑人 R&B 明星。这首歌曲是典型的大气歌曲，尤其是在 R.Kelly 超高的声线抽丝剥茧般将情感和音域同时贯入听者的耳朵的最后一段，在非凡的高音领域反转回旋叠加再叠加，几近高不可闻的境界。

在远离故乡，远离家人，没有朋友，没有情人的夜晚，在伤心失落，前途渺茫的时候，听听这首歌吧．Ｉbelieve i can fly.这句话已经非常流行了，经常看到有人用它做签名或者简介．在＜外星神犬＞中，有一只狗在跳水中说出的＂i believe i can fly"让我印象深刻．

I Believe I Can Fly

I Believe I Can Fly

I used to think that I could not go on
And life was nothing but an awful song
But now I know the meaning of true love
I'm leaning on the everlasting arms
If I can see it, then I can do it
If I just believe it, there's nothing to it

I believe I can fly
I believe I can touch the sky
I think about it every night and day
Spread my wings and fly away
I believe I can soar
I see me running through that open door
I believe I can fly
I believe I can fly
I believe I can fly

See I was on the verge of breaking down
Sometimes silence, it can seem so loud
There are miracles in life I must achieve
But first I know it starts inside of me
If I can see it, then I can be it
If I just believe it, there's nothing to it

I believe I can fly
I believe I can touch the sky
I think about it every night and day
Spread my wings and fly away
I believe I can soar
I see me running through that open door
I believe I can fly
I believe I can fly
I believe I can fly

Yeah, 'cause I believe in you
If I can see it (wooh), then I can do it (I can do it)
If I just believe it, there's nothing to it

I believe I can fly (wooh)
I believe I can touch the sky
I think about it every night and day
Spread my wings and fly away
I believe I can soar
I see me running through that open door
I believe I can fly (I can fly)
I believe I can fly (I can fly)
I believe I can fly (I can fly)
If I just spread my wings (I can fly)
I can fly (I can fly)
I can fly (I can fly)
I can fly (heh! I can fly)
If I just spread my wings (I can fly)
I can fly (I can fly, I can fly, I can fly, I can fly)
Fly, high, high
