時光被誰哺育 被誰摘去 清醒著 迷失自己 夢境有時也會 記不起 身後的我 就是你
心隨風飄蕩 夢卻想停息 疲憊的身軀 想要去哪裏
我在聆聽你 靈魂卻不語 無光的背景 很安靜
聼脈搏 跳動的聲音 擡頭望 空蕩月影清 沿著心中方向 穿梭來去 我的家 到底在哪裏
聼脈搏 跳動的聲音 擡頭望 空蕩月影清 沿著心中方向 穿梭來去 我的家 到底在哪裏
Also wrote down the lyrics from the clip~ A bit busy to translate...so anyone go have a go at it

Nice! I like it! It's great that we get to catch a glimpse of her own songwriting work (lyrical & composition), and I think this song bodes well for her other compositions on the upcoming album. :D

I really like it! <3
Her voice is gorgeous as always and I like the transition of traditional instruments in the beginning to a rockish sound later on.
also, could someone pretty please make a pinyin version? *-*

Great song! And it is too early to be distributed to the public before the album was released

So since everyone (or....some of you) have heard the full song...what do you guys think?
I think alan is still too much in her shell~ I would have loved to see her sing this with more power. She's still too reserved. But the melody is good and I loved the beginning! I would have to loved for that dark theme to continue instead of the Chinese-styled flute coming in
But if this is the style her album is going, I'm happy! I would love to see alan challenge more genres!

I think it's a solid song. In terms of alan's singing, I love the softer verses;but I'll agree with you, Pommy, that come the chorus, it would've been nice to hear more power behind her vocals there. Great melody, and I always love the use of Chinese traditional instruments, in particular the one instrument that sounds like a pipa (or one of the various plucked Chinese lutes or zithers).
Indeed, if this song is any indication as to what the sound of her next album is going to be like, we're all in for a treat. :)

I really like the verses, but I don't think the chorus goes well with them. Like it's too abrupt and musically it fits kind of strangely imo.

Haha the chorus really doesn't fit...so that's why I would have love to see the song revolve around the chorus instead

I think the same, the chorus doesn't fit the verses. Anyway i love the flute and the verses, and her voice is so beautiful. So much better than Phoenix imo.

Yeah I like the verses and the choruses separately, but not together. But it's great to see her composing things now. And I like the flute too.

I'm really suprised by the new single and I hope alan also sings it in Japanese version, soon.
@Pommy48, English translation... please?

This is such a nice song, for being one of her first attempts! I'm so happy alan is starting to wriite her own lyrics and compose her own melodies, because she doesn't only have an unearthly beautiful voice, she's got such a fine personality that it would be a shame not to express it somehow in her music! =3 I really hope she continues and tries more!

I have to agree with some of the others about the schism between the chorus and the verses, but overall I really like the song, and it makes it even better that alan wrote the lyrics and composed it. Definitely looking forward to her new album (not that I wasn't before or anything lol...) :D
