Hebe：唱出自己的聲音
S.H.E 可以說是華語流行樂壇里最成功的女子組合。但在許多樂評人和歌迷看來，在這個深受大眾喜愛的臺灣組合中，成員田馥甄(Hebe)在2010年發(fā)行了她的首張個人專輯之后，才成為了一位真正的音樂人，而不是又一個流行偶像。
On Dec 15, Tien wrapped up her third *consecutive concert at Taipei Arena. The excited singer didn’t stop her lively performance until 23:15. Knowing she had to pay NT$150,000 (33,000 yuan) for running over, she just laughed a hearty laugh and said: “Come on, take my money.”
12月15日，Hebe在臺北小巨蛋體育館連唱三場的演唱會圓滿落幕。這位興奮的歌手直到23:15分才結(jié)束她生龍活虎的演出。在得知她需要支付15萬臺幣(約合人民幣33,000元)演唱會超時罰款時，她大笑著說：“來吧，把我的錢拿去吧。”
Tien told Taiwan female fashion website Womany that she feels blessed to be able to have her own concerts. “On my own stage, I can choose my own songs and present them with reflection on my own life experience. That’s a real blessing.”
在接受臺灣女性時尚網(wǎng)站《女人迷》采訪時，Hebe表示，能夠開自己的演唱會，她感到十分幸運。“在我自己的舞臺上，我可以選擇自己的歌，以我個人生活經(jīng)歷的反思來呈現(xiàn)它們。這真的是一大幸事。”
She now has a say in her own music too. There’s no denying S.H.E.’s commercial *prosperity, but are those catchy love songs – of which many are cover versions of Western hits – really what Tien would like to sing?
現(xiàn)在，她對于自己的音樂也有了發(fā)言權(quán)。S.H.E在商業(yè)上獲得了巨大成功，這一點不可否認(rèn)，但那些朗朗上口的情歌 —— 許多還是西方熱門金曲的翻唱—— 真的是Hebe 想要唱的嗎?
We know the *headstrong young woman loves her group members but at the same time always dreamed to do the music she really wanted, even if it was an EP of English covers. Fortunately for her and her fans though, her dream came true. And what we do know is she has a distinctive *criteria when it comes to song choices for her solo albums. Latest release Day by Day (《日?！?, which dropped in July, for example, tells of the *trivia in her daily life, including brushing her teeth, doing yoga and taking the bus.
我們知道，這位任性的年輕女性很愛組合的其他成員，但她同時也夢想著能做自己真正想做的音樂，哪怕只是一張英文翻唱的迷你專輯。對于她和粉絲而言，幸運的是，她的夢想成真了。我們還可以得知的是，在個人專輯的歌曲選擇上，Hebe有著與眾不同的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)。比如，她今年7月發(fā)行的最新專輯《日?！分v述的就是刷牙、做瑜伽、搭公交車等她日常生活中的瑣事。
But being self-*indulgent when it comes to making music usually leads to a flop. The 33-year-old singer, who’s been in showbiz for 16 years, should be well aware of this. But what she knows for sure is the *whopping result a hit can bring. The 2015 hit single A Little Happiness (《小幸運》) has won her a number of nominations at both the Golden Horse Awards and Golden Melody Awards.
但隨心所欲地做音樂很可能導(dǎo)致失敗。這位已出道16年、現(xiàn)年33歲的歌手應(yīng)該很了解這一點。但她一定知道的是一首熱門金曲所帶來的巨大反響。她的2015年熱門單曲《小幸運》便獲得了金馬獎和金曲獎的多項提名。
But Tien herself prefers to walk on rough *terrain, as then “the views are better”, she told Womany. “Actually, so long as we pull out all the stops to produce one big hit, we can get a good reward from an album. But that’s not good for me,” the singer added. It seems that her biggest wish is for her music to express her own voice.
但Hebe自己卻更喜歡走險路，因為那樣“風(fēng)景會更好”，她在接受《女人迷》網(wǎng)站采訪時表示。“事實上，只要我們?nèi)σ愿暗刂谱鞒鲆皇状鬅岣枨覀儽隳軓倪@張專輯中獲得很好的收益。但對我來說，那樣并不好，”這位歌手補充道。她最大的心愿似乎就是讓她的音樂傳達(dá)出自己的聲音。
Offshore Island (《離島》), a single from Tien’s first album, To Hebe, may probably best demonstrate the singer. “I’m a small island, a *satiable island... I never worry about the small population on my island... I only need those who know me to know me.”
Hebe首張專輯《To Hebe》中的一首單曲《離島》或許最能表露這位歌手的心聲。“我是座小小島，容易滿足的小島……不擔(dān)心我這島居民太少……懂的人懂得就好。”
