21世纪的开端，芳龄23岁的德国女生莎拉·寇娜(Sarah Connor)，以甜美、带劲的节奏蓝调歌唱实力开始征服欧洲乐坛，祖父的纽澳良血缘让她在幼年时期即深受蓝调灵魂乐的薰陶，14岁时开始在教堂唱诗班担 任演唱，并在学校演唱音乐剧，15、16岁便以试唱带向各大音乐厂牌投石问路。
2001年春季，Sarah Connor以挑动情欲的处女单曲“Let’s Get Back To The Bed Boy”，绽放狂野性格，歌曲强势占领德国排行榜亚军，并挥军直入欧陆各国排行榜TOP 10，抢攻欧洲流行单曲榜TOP 15；第二首单曲“French Kissing”转而释放灵魂乐的性感魅力，同年底改走情歌路线，推出感人恋曲“From Sarah With Love”成绩益发耀眼，光在德国就卖出75万张，歌曲轻易摘下德国榜冠军后座，窜登欧洲Music & Media排行榜TOP 5，并在瑞典与奥地利创造金唱片开出销售红盘；紧接着首张大碟《Green Eyed Soul》更上层楼，不但直袭德国专辑榜亚军，也攻克荷兰、波兰、芬兰、葡萄牙、希腊等国排行TOP 10。
2002年3 月，Sarah Connor获颁德国乐坛最高荣耀的Echo音乐奖最佳流行摇滚女歌手大奖，稍后更勇夺Goldene Europe音乐奖最成功女歌手奖。美国嘻哈大将Wyclef Jean耳闻Sarah歌唱魅力，特地跨刀制作谱写并合唱一曲“One Nite Stand(Of Wolves And Sheep)”，Sarah Connor已然跻身全球节奏蓝调歌后之林。
专辑虽然是以蓝调音乐为主线，但表现形式却丰富多样化，同时使用了大量的音效，尽管从照片上看Sarah Connor是个白人，但她在唱片中的风格却有着浓厚黑人的味道。
Music Is The Key
People, have always been singing
To wipe away tears, to ease all the pain (oh)
Music, has always been healing
Some people just sometimes, and others again and again and again
So we hope that today you are ready, to understand
Whenever you’re falling down
Hopeless and pushed around
Find your own melody
Trust me that music is the key
It makes you feel proud and strong
Helps you to carry on
If you are down on your knees
You should sing it with me
Music is the key
(sets you free, yes)
Stories, we’ve always been telling
It's part of our nature to speak with a friend
Visions,we've always been seeing
At night in our dreams
The power of music will win in the end
So we hope that today you are ready, to understand
Whenever you’re falling down
Hopeless and pushed around
Find your own melody
Trust me that music is the key
It makes you feel proud and strong
Helps you to carry on
If you are down on your knees
You should sing it with me
Music is the key
It’s the key to the heart of all people
It can open the door to your soul
It’s the key to the world
Where the flower of love always grows
Don’t you know
Don’t you know
Whenever you’re falling down
Hopeless and pushed around
Find your own melody(Your melody)
Trust me that music is the key
Whenever you' re feeling down
Just don't know where to go
Tryin' our harmony(Your harmony)
Trust me that music is the key
Whenever you’re losing faith
Just wanna leave your place
Come sing along with me
Trust me that music is the key
Just sing with me loud and strong
Help us to carry on
If you are down on your knees
You should sing it with me
Music is the key
Sets you free
(Nar.Set you free,all around the world)
Music is the key
