歌詞
Are we really happy.
With this lonely game we play.
Looking 4 the right words 2 say.
Searching but not finding.
Understanding anyway.
We're lost in this masquerade.
We're lost in this masquerade.
We're lost in this masquerade.
Both afraid 2 say.
We're just too far away.
From being close together from the start.
We try 2 talk it over.
We try 2 talk it over.
But the words got in the way.
But the words got in the way.
We're lost inside this lonely game we play.
We're lost inside this lonely game we play.
Thoughts of leaving disappear.
Thoughts of leaving disappear.
Each time I see Ur eyes.
Each time I see Ur eyes.
And no matter how hard I try.
And no matter how hard I try.
To understand the reason.
To understand the reason.
Why we carry on this way.
Why we carry on this way.
We're lost in a masquerade.
And we're lost in a masquerade.
專輯介紹
在1996年11月底,李玟推出在新力音樂發行的第一張英文專輯,銷售直逼國際天后席琳·狄翁、瑪麗亞·凱莉。11月發片,跨年熱賣突破50萬張,人氣、買氣雙冠天后。
由Mariah Carey(瑪麗亞凱莉)的專屬製作人Walter Afanasieff量聲訂做主打歌“It's a Party”,在錄製這首歌的過程當中,CoCo每天在錄音室中連續不停地灌唱八個鐘頭,完成16個不同表現方式的OK版本;在曾經製作過瑪麗亞凱莉每張專輯、也曾與Michael Bolton、Barbara Streisand、Celine Dion等國際知名藝人合作的美國超級頂尖製作人Walter A.眼中,CoCo李玟相當具有成為國際藝人的天分與本錢,因而主動要求幫CoCo再寫兩首歌。
當然除了Walter A.的跨刀之外,台灣及新加坡傑出的製作人陣容,更讓這張專輯豐富精彩,連各大Pub中的DJ也對CoCo讚許有加,紛紛邀請她演出,莫怪CoCo當時在台灣掀起一陣Party熱潮!
