''Fuzao'' () is a 1996 Mandopop album by the C-pop singer Faye Wong. The title has been translated in English-language media as ''Restless'',〔Shane Homan, ''Access All Eras: Tribute Bands and Global Pop Culture 2006-''. p223. "The 1997 self-titled Faye Wong was predominantly more low-key and spare in its arrangements than Restless, and, as with future albums, all the tracks were in Mandarin, in keeping with a strong involvement by Zhang Yatung as arranger and ..."〕〔Edward L. Davis, ''Encyclopedia of Contemporary Chinese Culture'', 2012. "In 1993 Zhang Yadong moved to Beijing in search of bigger things and got his wish when Cantopop diva and Beijing native Wang Fei... invited him to produce several tracks on her album Restless (1996), a record .."〕〔 ''Exasperation'',〔Stan Jeffries, ''Encyclopedia of world pop music, 1980-2001'', 2003, p224. "Between the release of her debut album in 1989 and her winning the award for most popular Hong Kong female singer in 1994, Wong released eight albums. In November 1994, Wong gave her first live performance in over five years in Toronto, Canada, before completing a tour of Asia as well as other shows in Canada and the United States. Wong was now writing more of her own material. In fact in her final album for Cinepoly, Exasperation (1996), she was responsible for all the songs. Winning huge critical praise, the album contained three tracks that had no lyrics but, instead, just utilized Wong's voice. It was unlike any song ever heard in Hong Kong to that date, and it showed Wong as a thoughtful and maturing artist."〕 ''Anxiety''〔The Japanese release included the English translation ''Anxiety'' on the obi strip.〕 and ''Impatience''. The term was widely used in relation to the cultural anxiety of the period.〔Ju-Chen Chen -Capital Dreams: Global Consumption, Urban Imagination, and Labor ...2009 - Page 61 "There were discussions regarding how in this newly arrived flourishing age, Chinese were simultaneously confident and anxious (fuzao)."〕〔Paul J. Bailey Gender and Education in China: Gender Discourses and Women's .- 2007 Page 25 "her reminiscences remembers that the school taught students not to adopt a self-important and arrogant (fuzao) attitude, not to speak or laugh carelessly,"〕〔Suisheng Zhao -A Nation-state by Construction: Dynamics of Modern Chinese Nationalism 2004 - Page 133 "In their book, Farewell to the Revolution, Li Zehou and Liu Zaifu suggested that "Chinese culture in the twentieth century was overshadowed by national crises and therefore characterized by tensions (jinzhang), anxiety (fuzao), radicalization 〕 Many consider it her boldest and most artistically coherent effort to date. Some tracks are wordless or use self-created sounds, including the cheerful-sounding refrain "la cha bor" of the title track. ==Composition== As she was approaching the end of her recording contract with Cinepoly, Wong took more artistic risks with this highly experimental album.〔 It contains mainly her own compositions, with an aesthetic inspired by the Cocteau Twins, who contributed two original songs to the album, "Fracture" (分裂) and "Spoilsport" (掃興). Wong had previously covered their work on ''Random Thoughts'' in 1994, and established a remote working relationship with them – even laying down vocals for a special duet version of "Serpentskirt" on the Asian release of the group's 1996 album ''Milk And Kisses'', as her voice blended well with Elizabeth Fraser's ethereal soprano.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Fuzao」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
