Re: [新聞] Pump up the Jam
※ 引述《LikeAChild (像小孩 (^___^)》之銘言:
Pump up the Jam
Taiwanese singere Jam Hsiao lives up to his
reputation as the shy boy with a big voice
Taiwanese singer Jam Hsiao is known for belting out power ballads onstage
and for being a man of few words offstage.
台灣歌手蕭敬騰以於舞台上能夠氣勢非凡地演唱,下了台卻成為省話一哥
而聞名。
In town on Sunday to perform, the extremely soft-spoken 20-year-old lived
up to his reputation.
這位說話溫和的20歲歌手,星期日在新加坡的演唱獲得了一片好評。
During a press conference at the lounge of the Sheraton Towers hotel,
he gave monosyllabic answers,smiled shyly when pressed for elaboration and
sometimes did not give any.
在Sheraton Towers飯店的會客廳裡接受媒體訪問時,他的回答均相當簡短,
不時地在媒體問及細節時露出害羞的笑容,有時則未給予任何答案。
Reporters had to lean in to catch his replies. And his manager had to fill
in where his voice trailed off or clarify his succinct replies.
記者必須傾身向前以便聽清楚他的回答,而他的經紀人則在他越回答越小聲
,或者答案太過簡潔時,從旁加以補充、解釋。
Hsiao was in SIngapore to perform at the S-Pop Hurray finale concert on
Sunday. It is a programme on Channel U that uncovers local music talent
and songwriters.
蕭敬騰此次來新加坡,是為了在星期天所舉行的S-POP音樂祭中獻唱。
這項活動是Channel U為了表揚當地的音樂人及創作人所舉辦。
Dressed in a white jacket and a blue stripped shirt, the slight singer --
he weighs 53kg -- looked like a squeaky-clean schoolboy.
這位身穿白色外套和藍色條紋襯衫的瘦弱歌手--他體重才53Kg--,看起來就
像一個純潔無瑕的在學學生。
When asked if he minded being labelled as "sheng hua yi ge" (Mandarin for
Reticent Big Brother), he said matter-of-factly: "No."
當被問到是否介意被稱做"省話一哥"時,他回答得很確切:"不。"
And then, as an afterthought, he added: "You are free to write anything
you wish."
之後經過片刻思考,他補充說:"你們想怎麼寫就怎麼寫沒關係。"
The youngest of four children of a retired father, who used to be self-
employed, and civil servant mother, Hsiao started singing in a Taipei pub
at the age of 17.
蕭敬騰的父親在退休後即從事自由業,母親是公務員,在家裡四個小孩中排行
最小,但他從17歲起就開始在台北的PUB駐唱。
He has no formal vocal training except for the fact that "my family loves
to sing".
除了生長在一個"全家都愛唱歌"的環境外,他不曾接受過任何正規的歌唱訓練。
He shot to fame last year after being talent-spotted to appear on a popular
singing contest called One Million Star. He was a "wild card" brought in
to eliminate contestants, and he trounced Aska Yang, a popular contestant
on the show, by singing a ballad called Betray.
他因去年以實力派歌手之姿,在廣受歡迎的選秀節目"超級星光大道"出現而
成名。就像一張足以淘汰競爭者的"鬼牌",他以一首"背叛"擊敗當時該節目中的人氣
參賽者,楊宗緯。
Since then, the shy boy with the big voice has been appearing on various
talk shows, and was even invited by Taiwanese singer A*mei to sing a duet
with her on her latest album, A Moment.
從那之後,這位害羞的男孩和他高亢的嗓音就上遍了各大談話節目,並受邀
與台灣女歌手阿妹合唱單曲"一眼瞬間",收錄於阿妹最新的一張專輯中。
He also performed at the Golden Horse Awards ceremony last December,
singing the four songs nominated for Best Original Song. He is releasing
his debut album in May.
他並於去年十二月舉辦的金馬獎頒獎典禮中,演唱四首入圍最佳原創電影歌曲的
組曲。個人首張專輯則將於今年五月發行。
When Hsiao touched down in Singapore, the unlikely heart-throb was greeted
by more than 100 fans at Changi airport, who followed him in cars.
當蕭敬騰抵達新加坡時,他很驚喜地看到超過100位的歌迷在樟宜機場歡迎他,
並一路跟隨他的座車。
On his impression of A*mei, he said: "She's great."
問及他對阿妹的印象時,他回答說:"她很棒。"
Was he nervous before his performance at the Golden Horse ceremony?
"Yes. I couldn't sleep."
他在金馬獎上表演前,是否會緊張?
"會緊張,我都睡不著。"
Has life changed since he became famous? "Yes."
How is the new album coming along? "Very Well."
Is he seeing anyone? "No."
成名之後生活是否有改變? "當然。"
新專輯準備得如何呢? "很好。"
現在有女朋友嗎? "沒有。"
The ice king routine continued when the subject of his birthday came up.
He turns 21 next Sunday, and said matter-of-factly that he did not think
birthdays were a big deal.
這樣冷場的回答模式持續到他生日的話題。
他即將在下星期日滿21歲,但他不認為過生日是件重要的事。
Any birthday wishes? He answered with a smile: "It's a secret."
有任何生日願望嗎? 他笑著回答: "這是秘密。"
