On this edition of The Global Music Project we’re going to be taking a look at an acoustic-pop artist from Taipei, Taiwan named Waa Wei. She appears to have released about five albums and is currently on an independent label called AsiaMuse. Waa’s music has an incredibly relaxing coffee house vibe that leans more toward honesty than artsy. She has a breathy, playful, and endearing voice that vaguely reminds me of a mix between Dolores O’Riordan and Beth Orton, with a style that is distinctly all her own. 在這個全球音樂的課程中，我們將要來討論這位來自台北acoustic-pop(流行人聲?) 風格的歌手，，台灣命名Waa Wei。 她似乎已經發行了5張唱片，目前屬於獨立發行公司- 亞神唱片 Waa的音樂有令人難以置信令人放鬆的感覺，有如處在咖啡館的氛圍 那風格傾向真誠、坦率的傾訴，而非單純表演化性質、藝術化的風格。 他有著如呼吸般自然地、令人愉悅地、可愛惹人喜愛的聲音， 依稀使我想到是介於 Dolores O’Riordan 和 Beth Orton兩位歌手的混合， 那是種屬於她獨一無二般的的風格。 (應該是聽買你的感覺) Her music features tasteful arrangements that utilize a variety of instruments from around the world, contemporary production values, and hints of traditional Eastern melodies. Despite being a self-proclaimed pop artist, the hooks are very subtle and her songs have plenty of space to breathe as a result of sustained chords instead of incessant strumming. I’m not entirely sure, but as far as I can tell all of Waa’s lyrics are sung in some form of Mandarin Chinese. 她的音樂是以優美精緻的改編曲為特色， 其中利用了許多世界各種不同的樂器，展現當代同年齡層作品的價值觀感?(這句不太確定) 還帶點少許的傳統中國旋律。 (是聽到哪首歌 花王? 0.0?) 儘管作為自稱的?流行創作者， 那吸引人哼唱不已的疊句是纖細微妙的(花拉拉拉花拉拉?) 她的歌擁有足夠的空間去呼吸，是由於用了持續的情感和弦 取代了無止盡般漫不經心的彈奏 (並非band自嗨與主唱聲音分離or間奏炫技那種意思嗎?) 我並不完全確定，但據我所知她的歌詞唱的是某種形式的中國話。 Here is a video for a performance of her song called “A Corner Of World’ s End” which appears to be from an American Idol style show. However, I think the version on her Myspace page captures the vibe of the song infinitely better. She presents herself as a very different artist here which is a little confusing so I would go to her Myspace page before hitting play on the video. 這裡是一部有她歌曲"世界末日的某個角落"的影片，那似乎出自於一個類似American Idol 類型的節目。然而，我想在她my space裡的版本captures the vibe of the song (掌握歌曲氣氛?還是說引起人注意的感覺? 我不知道vibe是什麼) 毫無疑問的好多了。 她在這呈現為一個非常不同的藝術家，帶著點困惑，所以我會在點擊播放看影片前 先到她Myspace網頁去。 (這段意思其實我也有點問題 ，是認為看影片惜兒是waa? 還是說是看到waaMV感覺跟純聽歌聲旋律是不同的意境感覺? 介紹Waa的文章 放的卻別人唱WAA的影片感覺怪怪的啦 用來比較?好像比較說得通?) Once again, you can find Waa on Myspace at www.myspace.com/waawei. If you want to find more of her work on YouTube you can try copying and pasting this which I believe to be the characters for her name: 魏如萱. You may need to have Chinese characters enabled on your computer to view the characters. 最後，你可以在www.myspace.com/waawei Myspace的網頁找到Waa 假如你想找更多有關她在Youtube的作品，你可試著複製貼上"魏如萱" 我想是她中文的名字，你可能需要擁有能顯示中文字體的字型檔才能正確顯示。 英文不太好 試著翻譯一下 總之就是課堂報告要寫全球音樂，找到了WAA介紹給大家 中文造詣也不太好，後段不太會形容，麻煩高手幫忙潤飾了 that leans more toward honesty than artsy講的真好 他感受到了 :) --
