Carousel, the new single of “Sugar Voice” singer Tien Chong has been released on May 24th. This new song featuring both R&B and Jazz depicts a reverse lovestory in which the girl shows power and courage in her relationship and life. Moreover, this single has been selected as the Global Promotion Song for the Hollywood Catastrophe MovieAdrift.
2018年初，一位叫张天的新人从《歌手》舞台出道，第一首歌便震惊了所有人的耳朵，一路走来每一次演唱，每一次发声都透露着一股乐坛新势力在崛起，在为华语音乐带来一股不一样的风潮。在张天之前，Jazz、Funk、Flamenco等只是一些小众曲风，人们习惯认为女歌手声音就应该高亢明亮。而张天一开嗓，让人们一改固有的印象：原来歌还可以这么唱！
At the beginning of 2018, a girl named Tien Chong debuted on the stage of Singer, a TV singing show in China. She got everyone impressed by her first song. Since then every time she performed, Tien has been showingto the public that there is a newrising momentum that will bring a different trend tothe Mandarin music. Before Tien, Jazz, Funk and Flamenco were just niche music genres in China. People tended to expect high-pitched and bright voices of female singers. However, Tien changed such stereotype.
张天的声音低沉沙哑，有一股粗粝的性感，听她唱歌就像置身于午夜咖啡馆那烟草与咖啡的混合气味中，醇厚又迷幻，让人不可自拔。而张天也绝不是用自己稀有的嗓音简单唱两首歌去讨巧听众，她永远在尝试与突破，力求让听众们听到每首歌不一样的感觉与触动，虽然这让她充满话题，但我们看到了她的努力，看到了她对音乐的态度，对歌迷的尊重。
Tien has a rich, deep voice with throaty sexiness. When you listen to her song, you might feel yourself surrounded by a mixed aroma of tobacco and coffeeat a midnight cafe. Her deep and psychedelic voice will get you obsessed. However, Tien will never cater to the audience by singing easy songs. She has been trying and making steady moves to touch audience by conveying different feelings in each of her song. Although there are different opinions on her performance, we still can see her efforts and serious attitudes to music as well as her respect to the audience.
如今，我们终于等到了《Carousel》：一首为她量身打造，能百分百展示她嗓音与风格的歌曲。这首歌充满了现代暗系 R&B风，同时混合了新古典爵士，以磅礴的气势讲述了一个反常规的爱情童话故事：不同于常见的英雄救美，而是美救英雄。
Finally, Carouselcame online—a song matches her so much thatit will entirely show her voice and style. This song is aboutmodern dark R&Bmixed with a retro jazz swing, describing a reverse fairy tale—instead of the man saving the woman, the woman saves the man.
不仅《Carousel》极契合张天的声线与风格，而且张天的演唱也堪称完美：开头她用迷幻、销魂的声音将歌词娓娓道来，旋律高低起伏，节奏一顿一挫，让人仿佛真坐在旋转木马上微醺，感受到爱情的亦真亦幻。副歌部分澎湃大气，张天用极具力量的演唱表现了女性在爱情、生活中的坚强与勇气。
Carousel perfectly matches Tien’s voice and style. Tien alsorepresents her flawless performance in this song. She sets a fantastic tone at the beginning of the song, with somewhat ups and downs in the melody and rhythm, which looks like being on a carousel, you got slightly drunk feeling both the real and the fantasy.Tien sings the chorus part in a powerful way showing women’s courage in love and life.
值得一提的是，好莱坞灾难电影《Adrift》也特地选中《Carousel》成为全球宣传推广曲。电影根据全美十大真实灾难之一的1983年太平洋飓风海难事件改编，影片讲述了热衷航海的男女主角在横渡太平洋途中遭遇最强飓风，女主在男主的精神鼓励下，独自整修破败的帆艇并找寻可以果腹的食物，绝境之下激发出求生的勇气与男主度过困境……
Carousel has also been selected as the Global Promotional Song for the Hollywood Catastrophe Movie Adrift. The film is adapted from the 1983 pacific hurricane disaster, one of the ten real catastrophes in North America. It describes that the hero and heroine, two sailing lovers, encountered the strongest hurricane when crossing the Pacific Ocean. Encouraged by the man, the woman repaired the broken sailing boat by herself and found food to save hunger. Eventually the extreme condition spurred her courage for surviving and she went through the difficultytogether with the man.
因为张天在歌曲中展现出的女性力量，与电影讲述的女主角面对灾难的顽强意志、抗争精神不谋而合，而电影方也十分看中张天极具国际范儿的唱腔与嗓音，所以选择《Carousel》作为电影的全球宣传推广曲。当地时间5月23日，主办方特地邀请张天作为全球推广曲大使出席电影首映礼。张天在现场与影片主创进行了亲切的交流，在为影片宣传造势的同时，也向媒体分享了此次作为全球推广大使演唱推广曲的感受。
The girl power Tien shows in the song greatly matches the perseverance and struggling spirit of the heroine showed during the catastrophe in the film. Moreover, the film side values Tien’s international style of voice very much so they chose Carousel as the movie’s global promotional song.The organizer invited Tien as the Global Promotional Song Ambassador to attend the movie premier on May 23rd local time. Tien had friendly chats with the main cast of the movie and also shared with the media her personal feelings of singing the promotion song as the Global Promotional Ambassador.
