陈淑桦跨国2 | Love's Got a Line On You 1983 Sarah Chen Breaking Boundaries 2. Bold English Songs

Details

Description

If you've watched the original English MV, you'll know it was incompatible with Sarah Chen's gentle and graceful musical persona. But she completely let go and met the badass challenge of the song. In early 1980s Taiwan, such a bold performance was truly out of this world.

“Love's Got a Line on You," originally performed by Patty Smyth of Scandal in 1982, was included in Sarah Chen's 1983 album "The Right to Sing." Raised in a family with strict traditional Taiwanese values, Chen had created a music persona of an innocent and graceful young woman. Could she let go of the restraints and enact the badass attitude in this song? Who chose this song, knowing the cultural difference, and who had confidence in Chen? It was a brilliant choice. Sarah Chen delivered; she let go in this song. Performing in English might have eased the task and lowered societal resistance.

(歌词在字幕里）【综述】你如果看过这首歌的英文原唱MV，就知道它对温柔优雅的陈淑桦是本质性的挑战。她却完全放开。在台湾80年代初，她这么大胆的演绎完全是天作。

《Love's Got A Line On You》最初由Scandal乐队的帕蒂·史密斯在1982年演唱。陈淑桦的版本收录在她1983年的专辑《唱歌的权利》中。陈淑桦在一个有着严格传统台湾价值观的家庭中长大，塑造了一个纯真优雅的音乐形象。她能放下束缚，演绎这首歌中的坏女孩厉害的态度吗？是谁明知文化差异还是选了这首歌？是谁对陈淑桦有信心，觉得她可以成功演绎这首歌？

这是一个明智的选择。陈淑桦演绎绝妙，在这首歌中完全放开。用英语演唱可能减轻了任务的难度并降低了社会阻力。在那个年代，她这么大胆的演绎非同一般。
