    To those of you who don't know who Duan Aojuan is, she was a member of Rocket Girls 101 (the project group of Produce 101 China). She was praised by the mentors and other contestants for her vocal ability. ☺️

    Altough it's just my assumption that the words are the same as i dont speak the language. But it is impressive how the song still has almost the same rhythm as the original even though it's sung in an entirely different language. I would've thought that certain words would never be able to rhyme when translated. Amazing.

    • @seanmeng8976
      @seanmeng8976 Рік тому +28

      The translation is almost identical, with some minor adjustments for proper rhythm. Though to Mandarin listeners, some wording choices could be a bit awkward. I’d personally wish for more modifications to the lyrics, while maintaining the underlying meaning.

    The lyrics are actually not identical. They have the same general gist, but the actual lyrics are not at all the same. It's not a sort of loose translation. (For example, this version doesn't directly mention ghosting friends.) It is going for the same general meaning, and it's actually pretty cool how close it came to the original considering having to rhyme. This is coming from someone who can speak English and Mandarin, so I didn't just use Google Translate.

    影子對手(Shadow of Mine)
    [Alec Benjamin feat. 段奧娟]
    [lyrics]
    心是一座房子逃離千百次
    以為陌生城市能夠重新開始
    可為什麼影子在緊跟著我
    叫我無法擺脫原來的樣子
    無處收藏的是幻想是脆弱、幼稚
    無法安置的是過去和現在的事啊
    無處安放的是與生俱來的影子
    無法抹掉的影子無人取代的影子
    想問那個影子是否有名字
    帶著我的模樣陪伴我千萬次
    可它為何黑夜中消失不見
    沒有光它也不會出現
    無法面對的是過去的荒誕自身
    唯一不變的是變化是變化本身啊
    無處安放的是與生俱來的影子
    無法抹掉的影子無人取代的影子
    自~由~ 誰不想擁有
    自~由~ 影子伸出手
    自~由~ 我要的自由
    自己是自己的對手
    影子使人自我面對
    沒有人是真的完美
    過去的失去了不再回
    唯影子在追隨
    無法面對的是過去的荒誕自身
    唯一不變的是變化是變化本身啊
    無處安放的是與生俱來的影子
    無法抹掉的影子無人取代的影子
    自~由~ 誰不想擁有
    自~由~ 影子伸出手
    自~由~ 我要的自由
    自己是自己的對手
