<… Read Full Bio ↴楊乃文(Naiwen Yang) (Simplified: 杨乃文 Pinyin: Yáng Nǎi Wén English: Faith)
After graduating from Sydney University, Faith returned to Taiwan to start a music career. She soon gained a cult following in the university and pub circuit in Taiwan while touring with her backing band - Monster. In 1996 she signed with Magicstone records. Her first two albums are heavily influenced by the Australian pub rock style, with a gothic undertone noticeable in tracks such as "Silence", "Fear" and "Monster", while her third album has a lighter pop style, with only hints of the anger evident in the first two recordings. All three albums were huge hits in Taiwan and in 2000 Faith won the Taiwan Golden Music awards for Best Female Performer and Best Album.
Faith did not renew her contract with Magicstone, claiming the label had become too commercial for her style of music. In 2004 it was reported that she had signed with Sony label Silver Fish Records.
In late 2007, Faith released Continuation (女爵), which included increased production value ("Be In Love"), mature songwriting ("分開"), and help from Eason Chen (陳奕迅) on the upbeat pop-rock track, "Television" (電視機).
After the May 2008 Sichuan Earthquake, Faith participated in CCTV's benefit concert, singing "但愿人長久", which was popularized by Chinese singing icon, Teresa Teng (鄧麗君). The performance was notable for not only including verses by Faith, Eason Chen and male pop singer, Ah-Niu, but also a rare live performance from Faye Wong (王菲).
In 2009, Faith released an all-covers album, Self Selected, which included her takes on English-language songs such as Radiohead's "Fake Plastic Trees", The Verve's "Drugs Don't Work", Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah", T.Rex's "20th Century Boy", Blur's "Song 2", Coldplay's "Scientist" and another duet with Eason Chen, a cover of Lou Reed's "Perfect Day." One original track was written for the album, an ambient tune titled "Miss Underwater."
Faith also works as a fashion and cosmetics model for companies such as Rado and Neutrogena, as well as continuing to tour on the Taiwan pub circuit. She has also considered a number of acting roles. In 2000 Faith played a lead part in the web movie "175 Degrees of Color Blindness (175度色盲)", a 20 part flash movie made especially for release on the internet.
證據
楊乃文 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
被當作亂放電的誘惑 我雙魚 為什麼天蠍要恨我
難道都是我的錯 我該生氣還難過 一杯被當做證據的紅酒
換來的咒罵 喋喋不休 你罵的 還不夠嗎
我要飛走 我要自由 我要用最溫柔的復仇
讓你一無所有 讓你在說我的時候
很有理 卻會心痛
我要飛走 我要自由 我要用最溫柔的刑求
讓你一無所有 讓你在說謊的時候
想到我 會很心痛
難道都是我的錯 我該生氣還難過 一杯被當做證據的紅酒
換來的耳語 喋喋不休 你罵的 還不夠嗎
我要飛走 我要自由 我要用最溫柔的復仇
讓你一無所有 讓你在說我的時候
很有理 卻會心痛
我要飛走 我要自由 我要用最溫柔的刑求
讓你一無所有 讓你在說謊的時候
想到我 會很心痛
我已經不會難過 沒有什麼好難過 就當我的愛掉進了黑洞
做過的夢是一陣旋渦 沒了你 才有出口
The lyrics to 楊乃文's "證據" reveal a sense of frustration and betrayal towards someone who is doubting and accusing the singer. The lyrics ask why this person won't believe the singer, even after just a casual exchange of glances is interpreted as flirtation. The singer wonders why a Scorpio would hate a Pisces like her, as if it were her fault. She is angry and hurt, yet the red wine that was taken as evidence is the only thing left to remember the exchange by.
The chorus repeats the same message: she wants to fly away, be free, and take revenge in the gentlest way possible by leaving the doubter with nothing. Even though the doubter speaks with reason, they will feel the pain deep down when thinking of her.
Towards the end of the song, the singer comes to the realization that her love has fallen into a black hole, she is done with being hurt, and the dreams she had are now nothing more than a whirlpool, but at least now she can see a way out.
Overall, the song expresses a sense of frustration, sadness, and the desire for revenge in a subtle way, reminding the listener that not everything is black and white.

母親大人
詞: 方文宗 曲 : 河馬
母子的感情
我沒有刻意隱藏對母親的情感 也不是故意不順從讓你感傷
雖然意見常相左一個男人像個小孩我能為你做些什麼
一輩子要強的大人掛念著角色會多少困擾？
他肯定得意 我是她的驕傲成熟長大才 懂得母親大人不容易
最近常常想到她時間不多快走了我眼淚忍不住的流
你總是給予也許方式不對 但我卻不知如何說謝謝
總會等我回家一起吃飯才會放心想和小時候一樣 你温柔牽著我手
這些年只顧自己追求她只能這樣著急無力參與這意味著什麼
我想我是害怕失去你了媽 其實不是反省曾經那個我有多傻
而是想珍惜所剩下的時間
第一次想為寫你成一首歌它早該和母親大人講合不怕你知道
我早已想不起她做飯菜的香記不得上一次母親给的擁抱是在什麽時候
我了解不只有我 在母子相處吃力有的幸運成為支柱不幸
只能是冤親債主 現在讓我們放膽面對 人生的難
這首歌當是我致母親的歉意表逹我愛你來不及說 想說卻還沒說的
母親大人下軰子我還想當你寶貝 https://www.instagram.com/p/CVpB1rmD2k-/

楊乃文是那種不會炒作新聞的歌手
總是默默做出令人驚豔作品的音樂人
@TheCasio46
楊乃文超大方的，上次聽她的live有一個瘋狂歌迷向她要她剛喝過的礦泉水，她居然毫不猶豫的一口答應並且立刻親手遞給那位歌迷，果然讚啦。
@user-sj1ku3ib2k
A-LIN也有
@siuniuniu
TheCasio46 倒轉才夠讚啦！
