Johnny Nash─1940年出生於美國德州，是位歌手兼詞曲作家。出道初期還曾參與過電影的演出並獲獎 ( Silver Sail Award )。1965，成立JAD唱片公司。1967去牙買加錄製他自己的歌《Hold Me Tight》，以及翻唱Sam Cooke的《Cupid》，均成為當地的暢銷曲。Johnny Nash也是第一位在牙買加錄製雷鬼 ( Reggae ) 音樂的非牙買加人。

由於以上歌曲的成功，Johnny Nash之後即以融合Reggae曲風為其音樂路線。此首《I Can See Clearly Now》為其1972同名專輯中另發行的單曲，勇奪美國告示牌熱門100的冠軍，也是Johnny Nash最為知名的招牌歌。之後翻唱的歌手眾多，其中包含Jimmy Cliff1993的版本，但也只獲得18名。

這是一首勵志歌曲。克服了逆境之後，希望是光明的未來。




I can see clearly now, the rain is gone,
I can see all obstacles in my way
Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind
It's gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright)
Sun-Shiny day.

I think I can make it now, the pain is gone
All of the bad feelings have disappeared
Here is the rainbow I've been prayin' for
It's gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright)
Sun-Shiny day.

Look all around, there's nothin' but blue skies
Look straight ahead, nothin' but blue skies

I can see clearly now, the rain is gone,
I can see all obstacles in my way
Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind
It's gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright)
Sun-Shiny day.
