LINION

“Never seen you before.”

“Never seen you before.”

你聽到前所未見的他，正對著謬思低語「從沒與妳見過」。

褪去《Me In Dat Blue》的陰鬱外衣，LINION 在 2020 年的新單曲〈Her〉中展現浪漫活潑的本性，以尋愛過程比喻創作的掙紮。在製作人鍾濰宇的打磨下，嘗試融會美國西岸嘻哈、靈魂樂才子 Anderson Paak. 的精神，運用新穎聲響構築當代節奏藍調，發展強烈的律動。

LINION 解釋，〈Her〉的歌曲靈感源於 Netflix 實境秀《盲婚試愛》；在那節目裏，參賽者們隔墻調情、看不見彼此的曖昧狀態，恰似創作者與謬思女神的靈魂試探。事實上在發行首張專輯後，他曾自覺靈感枯竭，於信息焦慮期丟失寫歌的純心。2020 年因疫情拖慢世界的運轉，他決定趁此機會放下慌張，尋回內心平靜。

援引電影《雲端情人》的數位戀愛情節，LINION 的第一首回神之作即是〈Her〉。首尾反覆唱著：「Never seen you before.／Never seen you before.」（從沒與妳見過）。尋愛的男子下註靈感，這首歌就是美人吐露芳心的答案。

「a tucu saqemauqaung aken」這句話是排灣族語，意思是我現在想哭。

LINION以男性角度出發詮釋，很多時候「直男」很難開口説出自己想哭，會因為男性的自尊而忽略自己的情緒，本次透過與排灣族女歌手Kivi的合作，首度挑戰使用排灣族語「a tucu saqemauqaung aken」這句話，唱出並吶喊著自身想哭的情緒，不再因為面子問題而壓抑。或許乍聽之下很難過，但更重要的是，將情緒訴諸吶喊後留下的空白，迎接而來的舒暢及喜悦。

而來自那屋瓦少女隊的排灣族女歌手Kivi，如黑馬之姿在第34屆金曲獎，以首張專輯《分水嶺Padiyudr》強勢入圍《最佳原住民語歌手獎》、《最佳原住民語專輯獎》、《年度專輯獎》，聲線清亮且靈魂飽滿，在她的歌聲之間悠遊有如滴水穿石般，每每聽到Kivi的歌聲都會被治癒及釋放。2023年於第三張專輯《HIDEOUT》透露自己的靈魂動物是「黑豹」的LINION，像是帶着隱隱作痛的傷，誤闖入了Kivi的部落，本以為對方會被自己強悍的外表而嚇跑，但反而被Kivi温柔且包容的對待，靈魂也被温暖的擁抱及接住，像是被浩瀚的水所包覆，得以在這樣有安全感的水中放聲大哭、吶喊出自己的情緒，像在海里面發出聲音，並不會被很多人聽到，同時也將自己體內的淚水恣意哭出，傾瀉流入廣大的海川。從歌名〈Tears in Water〉帶入故事主軸，LINION想用這樣的故事，分享給所有想哭但是哭不出來的聽眾們，大膽的説出「a tucu saqemauqaung aken」就把自己的靈魂給釋放吧。

這首歌以LINION擅長的曲風Neo-Soul、主樂器Bass 注入滿滿地Groovy律動及Gospel的人聲和音編曲，充分在laid back的空間流竄著自然的呼吸與靈魂，以他温暖且具質地的聲線，疊加Kivi清亮亦富含靈魂且治癒的天生嗓音，畫龍點睛的將這首歌給完整，節奏感令人不自覺跟着晃動，一回神發現自己的身體已經被靈魂牽引自然律動，不用思考。

歌手兼音樂製作人LINION，自第二張專輯《Leisurely》獲得各界好評後，睽違三年再度邀請到知名國際R&B Neo-Soul音樂人 Moonchild / Kiefer/ Jeff Bernat/J3PO 等御用鼓手Efa Etoroma, Jr. 來施展鼓技，以及新一代鬼才鍵盤手Edelyn 一同參與錄音製作，擅長Jazz、Neo-soul、Hip Hop的他，在短短的時間內就將這首歌的畫面提升到更為華麗且細膩的層次，be water my friend。

The phrase "a tucu saqemauqaung aken" is Paiwanese, meaning "I want to cry now."

LINION, interpreting from a male perspective, often finds it challenging for "straight guys" to express their desire to cry. Due to male pride, they may suppress their emotions. Through collaboration with Paiwanese female singer Kivi, LINION boldly challenges this societal norm by incorporating the Paiwanese phrase "a tucu saqemauqaung aken" into the song. This 
allows him to express and scream the emotions of wanting to cry, without suppressing them due to concerns about masculinity. While initially sorrowful, the crucial aspect is the sense of relief and joy that follows after expressing emotions through screams, filling the void left behind.
Kivi, from the girl group “Nanguaq” emerged as a dark horse at the 34th Golden Melody Awards. With her debut album "Padiyudr," she garnered nominations for "Best Indigenous Language Singer," "Best Indigenous Language Album," and "Album of the Year." Her clear and soulful voice flows effortlessly, akin to water slowly wearing down stone, bringing healing and release to listeners. LINION, whose soul animal revealed in his third album "HIDEOUT" is the "black panther," metaphorically wandered into Kivi's tribe with hidden wounds, expecting to intimidate her with his tough exterior. However, he is met with Kivi's gentle and inclusive treatment, which embraces and soothes his soul. Like being enveloped by vast waters, he can freely cry out and scream his emotions in this safe environment, akin to making sounds in the sea, not heard by many, while letting tears flow freely, pouring into the vast ocean. Through the song title "Tears in Water," LINION aims to share this story with all listeners who want to cry but cannot, encouraging them to boldly express "a tucu saqemauqaung aken" and release their souls.
This song, infused with LINION's signature Neo-Soul style and bass instrumentals, is filled with groovy rhythms and Gospel vocal arrangements. It flows naturally in a laid-back space, resonating with the warmth and texture of his voice. Combined with Kivi's clear, soulful, and healing vocals, the song is perfected, inducing an unconscious sway to its rhythm, where one finds themselves moving along naturally, without conscious thought.

Singer, bassist, and music producer LINION, following the positive reception of his second album "Leisurely," has once again enlisted the talents of internationally renowned drummer Efa Etoroma, Jr. for recording drums. Efa is a frequent collaborator with many international R&B Neo-Soul musicians such as Moonchild, Kiefer, Jeff Bernat, and J3PO for live performances. Additionally, LINION has partnered with the emerging prodigy producer and keyboardist Edelyn for the recording production. Proficient in Jazz, Neo-Soul, and Hip Hop, Edelyn has swiftly elevated the song's sonic landscape to a more lavish and nuanced level within a short timeframe. As the saying goes, "be water my friend."
