<… 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.

楊乃文 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
差的时候你也真是恨得不得了
爱过的人应该都知道
那是一种什么味道
能不能爱就好 别吵
你说我太需要浪漫你很受不了
我说你太拈花惹草我也快疯了
说不出那是种什么味道
没有我的日子你好不好 我好无聊
星星堆满天
也不能比月圆
在我心里面 有那么一点
对爱的固执 和对爱你的坚持
星星堆满天
我还是最爱月圆
我中你的毒 我中你的邪
我无药可解 我为爱付出一切
星星堆满天
也不能比月圆
在我心里面
有那么一点
对爱的固执
和对爱你的坚持
星星堆满天
我还是最爱月圆
我中你的毒
我中你的邪
我付出一切
我为爱付出一切

The lyrics to 楊乃文's song Stars speak about the ups and downs of love. The singer describes how her significant other can be extremely loving during good times, but can also be filled with pure hatred during bad times. The singer also acknowledges that anyone who has experienced love knows the unexplainable and unique feeling that it brings. She expresses a desire to simply love without arguing.
The second verse continues with the relationship struggles between the singer and her significant other. The significant other accuses the singer of being overly romantic and the singer accuses the significant other of flirting. Once again, the singer emphasizes that those who have experienced love know the feeling, yet it is difficult to describe. Without the singer, the significant other would be bored.
The chorus speaks about the stars and the moon. Although the stars may fill the sky, they cannot compare to the round and full moon. The singer confesses her stubbornness and her determination to love her significant other wholeheartedly, even if it may be detrimental to her.
In conclusion, 楊乃文's song Stars portrays the complexities of love and its unexplainable nature. The singer acknowledges the difficulties within the relationship but chooses to remain fixated on the love she has for her significant other.

1997民國86年8~9月發行的專輯歌曲，這首歌在當年很受歡迎每次在我與朋友去ktv歡唱時，都一定會有朋友點來唱，我是67年次當年19歲；如今2019年我已經是41歲當爸爸的人了，還是有在聽那些年好聽的經典歌曲

其實六七年級經歷的時光都差不多
那個年代變化很慢不若現在
不過經典 永遠是經典
