<… 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.
離心力
楊乃文 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
我就會當真
離心力與你
永恆拉扯
安靜地望著
不屬於我的
這距離適合
不要擁抱 切莫親吻
我會粉碎 再不完整
我不存在
就沒有 消失的可能
欲言又止 也很快樂
我只是你 眼前星塵
你不明白 這裡 危險萬分
哪一段緣份
不是陰謀論
馴服了寂寞
才懂溫柔
再一點遺憾
愛就圓滿了
陪伴你到死去
多迷人
不要擁抱 切莫親吻
我會粉碎 再不完整
我不存在 就沒有消失的可能
欲言又止 也很快樂
我只是你 眼前星塵
你不明白 這裡 危險萬分
再眷戀一生
也不會成真
離心力是宿命
我在這
The lyrics to 楊乃文's song 離心力 convey the complex emotions of a person who is in love with someone but knows that they cannot be together. The song begins with the singer admitting that they would take the relationship seriously if they could just get a little closer, but the force of centrifugal separation always seems to pull them apart. Despite this distance being painful, it is also a suitable option since it allows the singer to have feelings of longing and desire, which they do not want to lose.
The singer asks their lover not to hug or kiss them, fearing that they will shatter and no longer be complete. The idea of being incomplete is already present since the singer acknowledges that they do not exist without their love interest, and thus, they cannot disappear. However, the singer is also happy in their current position, as they get to be close to their lover, even if just as dust particles in their eyes.
The singer realizes that some relationships are not a conspiracy theory and are just not meant to happen. They come to understand that to tame loneliness, one must understand tenderness. The song concludes with the singer reminiscing about the possibility of their love ever being consummated, but knowing that their fate is already sealed by the centrifugal force that separates them.

Don't embrace or kiss me, for I'll fall apart and never be whole again; if I don't exist, I can't possibly disappear.

Muted yet happy, I'm just a speck of dust in your eyes, and you don't realize how dangerous it is here.

Every fate is contingent on a grand conspiracy; only by taming loneliness can one truly understand tenderness.

過了好幾年才遇見這首歌,相見恨晚。
在佳瑩之音聽到這段陌生的旋律時,
明明手邊很多事情在忙,居然打了個寒顫、停下鍵盤滑鼠的操作,靜靜地閉上眼睛,由這一詞一曲浸濕心靈。
就那樣甩出了日常生活之外。
一直以來,很想當個樂觀的人,想像欣賞的人一樣優秀地存在於人群中,奈何總是喜歡安靜、乾淨、沒人打擾的角落,那大概就是種離心力吧。
或是,我知道,再怎麼在乎你,也很難貼在一起,所以我轉啊轉的,多麼希望自己不存在,那麼就不用害怕消失了。
“不要擁抱 切莫親吻”
我好怕,越接近越被推得越遠,粉碎在你的安全圈之外,再也什麼都不是了。
與危險共存嗎,若可以簡單,誰想那麼複雜。
然而,宿命呀,我也在這,我會陪伴你,迷人嗎?

聽這首歌總讓我想到盛夏光年跟這麼多年來的意難忘。
「再靠近一吋,我就會當真。」一起騎腳踏車,迎風望著花蓮綠油油的稻海,心波搖盪;一起躲在書桌下等921大地震過去,還有被靠著背環抱著的,騎著車的夜路。正行就是這麼慢慢地陷進去,像在吸食著名為朋友的毒。
「安靜地望著,不屬於我的。」拿開課本,看著守恆睡覺側臉的正行,總想著再仔細看他一點,再久一點。或者在那場不歡迎自己的舞會,或者在籃球場邊或體育館二樓。總只能偷偷看著,只能擁有那樣的渺小,屬於他和自己的片刻。
「不要擁抱,切莫親吻,我會粉碎,再不完整。」所以在那樣驚疑,或喜或懼的夜晚,正行只能努力地擠出「余守恆,你不要鬧喔」的字句。不要給我不能永恆的親暱,不要讓我相信幸福的可能,萬萬不要作夢。因為都要醒。不管夜色黑得多麼溫柔深邃,白晝總要照散一切霧中發生的美好虛幻。
「我不存在,就沒有,消失的可能」所以才在隔天早上不發一聲地離開,所以才打算一個人上台北。因為關係的消失,或說毀滅,必然成真。所以才希望你從不存在,或者藉由和另一個人交換體溫,忘記你的存在。最後卻失敗的,只能縮在賓館裡的浴室躲起來一個人痛哭。
「哪一段緣分,不是陰謀論。馴服了寂寞,才懂溫柔。」因為壓抑不住寂寞,才只好在結局必然灰暗的海邊嘶吼,才只好說破。連友誼都是來自於他者的安排,其實我本來沒有想跟你當朋友。「其實我想當的,不只是你的朋友。」可是啊,可是...「再眷戀一生,也不會成真。」終究只能換得一句「你是我最要好的朋友。」
「離心力是宿命,我在這」。是啊,都八年了,我還沒走開,我還在要死不活地愛。樂意地去折磨自己,點開你在右下角的綠星,向你說話,換得你的不理不睬。
這世界總有一些駭人的事物來自於恨與不理解,但也總有些或許更讓人害怕的事,來自愛與明白。

像是《尋人啟事》的續集(可能是因為作曲人都是黃建為吧)
也不知道為什麼讓我想到不少電影的配樂,像是《百日告別》和《海街女孩日記》
有別於楊乃文過去的抒情曲/慢歌,這次的聲音更溫柔,更細膩(雖然還是一首很絕望的歌)
少了過去那種冷艷,孤傲的感覺
編曲以鋼琴為基調,也有弦樂和French Horn的輕輕的襯托,
不像《我離開我自己》般寂寞刺骨,也不像《應該》般華麗絢爛,
很期待這張新專輯。
但還是希望看到搖滾女王的英姿啦 xd

字字句句 不斷的 一直往心裡剝
不斷的 不停的
完全沒有呼吸的機會
腦袋也不斷地放映畫面
失守了眼角
失去了重心
失去了理想
模糊了視線
當無奈昇華
剩下的就是對這首歌的感觸
為什麼要這麼的好聽....
@jasd1786
270天的分離
離心力卻永遠無法在拉近
得知不了妳的消息
消失在人海中的妳
從朋友口中
得知妳很幸福
世界上
遇到個性相合的兩個人機率大概有多少呢
每次聽這首歌
都回到當初在一起的感覺
就好像昨天的嘻嘻哈哈
如今卻不知道妳在哪
好想得知妳那些消息
真的好想
不小心點進來
就回到當初了
如果有這麼幸運
希望能在哪個地方在遇見妳了

歌也好😂

絕大說數的歌手只懂賣弄歌喉把歌唱得好聽,有能力用唱的方式詮釋歌曲意境讓人有感的歌手卻寥寥無幾。楊乃文此次的作品令人驚艷,第一次聽她唱得如此輕柔,也讓人見識到楊乃文的演唱功力。這首歌除了歌手優,詞曲都很優,可惜評審沒眼光,沒能獲獎。期待楊乃文能不斷超越自己,讓聽眾有耳福可以聽到高水準的音樂

因為那屆太強了。神仙打架。如果是別屆就會得了。
