- (Lyrics in CC). 【综述】陈淑桦于歌坛不辞而别，但她在精心计划的1995告别专辑里，以无穷的深情唱了《秋别》，是她对歌迷，职业，和自我一部分的告别。这首最“淑桦”的淑桦歌，是我们对您的秋的祝福。
《秋别》由张弼词曲；张弼还谱过《兰花草》和陈淑桦的《夜语》，《欢聚》， 和《忘形的轻吟》。1995的《秋别》是陈淑桦第二次录制。原版出在1980专辑《归程》里，那时陈淑桦21岁，在歌坛里已经晃了N年，还未找到爆红的歌，面临淡然隐退的危险。当时她的嗓音明亮而金黄，不太适合《秋别》的离愁。十六年后，她更成熟而抚慰人心的嗓音和《秋别》是绝配。
《秋别》是陈淑桦9首重新录制中最令人难以释怀的歌。歌词符合宋词长短句，短短几字包含了千言万语：“忍悲伤，装笑颜”，“今夜请看我，为君整娇容”，“妾心情万种，君心如秋风”。谁没经历过离别愁，或挥别自己少年强说愁的过去？这是陈淑桦对歌坛，歌迷，职业的告别，也是切断她自己一部分的绝唱。她的每一音符，每一字，每一句，深深打入你心中，而她深情和安抚的嗓音又替你抚平伤感。这是什么样的魔力？需要多深的体会？如实说，我听《秋别》的次数大于听《梦醒时分+滚滚红尘+笑红尘》的总数，却每次仍然被它打动。
陈淑桦无可替代，因为再没人有她的经历带来对音乐独特的依恋之情。从小时侯演唱成人歌开始，她为音乐付了很大的代价。到1982年《夕阳伴我归》出头时已在歌坛徘徊了10多年，录制了上百首歌和上10张专辑。后来在EMI成功的工作被迫中断，进入滚石后虽唱了热门歌，但功劳何在，又为音乐形象而大病。音乐既是陈淑桦的避风港，又是她痛苦的根源。在离别歌坛时，只有她才能理解歌中的无奈, 深情，和伤感。
在用高级AI分析陈淑桦作品时，我们曾让LLM4鉴定告别专辑。LLM4在两次给了不同的答案：1995年的《生生世世》和1986年的《情/黑发变白发》，这是有道理的。据说陈淑桦在1986年EMI工作中断时考虑过退下，《情》看来是告别专辑。如果她当时退出了，她的成就会少很多，世界会缺少很多华语流行热门歌，但她也不会有后来的折磨。但如淑桦在1992年华声采访时说，有得必有失。何况人生只有一条路，又怎堪回首。
我们今天享受的音乐建立在陈淑桦的付出上。所以我们也有责任去庆祝她的成就，保存和珍惜她的作品，维护她的良好形象。每一次你听淑桦的歌都是对她的致敬。谢谢你走入「陳淑樺記憶的門」。
[Abstract] Sarah Chen left the music industry without saying good-bye, but in her 1995 album "Forever, Sarah," she sang "Autumn Farewell" with an unmatched depth of emotion. It was her silent farewell to her fans, career, and a part of herself. "Autumn Farewell," the most Sarah-like of Sarah Chen songs, is our autumn blessing to you.
The 1995 version of "Autumn Farewell" was Chen's second recording; the original was in her 1980 album "Road Home". At 21, she had already spent several years in the industry, endured hardships without scoring her first big hit, and faced the danger of fading away. Her bright, golden voice was awkward for the melancholy of "Autumn Farewell." Fifteen years later, her more mature and soothing voice was a perfect match for the song.
The lyrics of "Autumn Farewell" followed a structure of Song Dynasty poetry, expressing a thousand unspoken words in just a few characters, "Hiding sorrow, feigning a smile." Who hasn't experienced the sorrow of parting, or bidding farewell to one's youthful past? Every note, every line, and every word of Sarah Chen's strikes your heart，while her deep emotion and soothing voice smooth over your pain. What kind of magic is this? How deep must her emotions be? To be honest, I have listened to "Autumn Farewell" more times than the combined number of times I've listened to "Dream to Awakening," "Red Dust," and "The Mundane World," yet each time it still fills my heart.
Sarah Chen is irreplaceable because no one else has her unique experience and emotional attachment to music. From singing adult songs as a child, she paid a steep price for her music, and by the time she finally broke through in 1982 with "Sunset Follows Me Home", she had been in the industry for over a decade, recording over 10 albums and 100+ songs. Later, her successful work at EMI was abruptly interrupted. Although she performed major hits after joining Rock Records, her contribution was misattributed to others and she fell gravely ill from a weight-loss episode - for music. Music was Sarah Chen's refuge, but it was also the source of her suffering. As she bid final farewell to music, only she could truly understand the helplessness, love, and sorrow in her songs.
When we used advanced AI to identify Sarah Chen's farewell album, LLM4 gave two different answers on two occasions: the 1995 "Forever, Sarah" and 1986 "Love (Black Hair Turns White)," which makes sense. Sarah Chen was said to have considered retiring in 1986 after the interruption of her work at EMI. This would have made "Love" her farewell album. If Sarah had retired, her achievements would have been fewer, the world would have missed out on many major Mandopop hits, but Sarah also wouldn't have endured the later suffering. To quote Sarah Chen from her 1992 Voice of Chinese American interview, "You win some, you lose some." Plus, life has but one path, there’s no looking back.
The music we enjoy today is built on Sarah Chen's sacrifices. It's up to us to honor her legacy, preserve and treasure her work, and uphold her good image. It's a tribute to Sarah every time you listen to her songs. Thank you for entering the Sarah Chen Memory Gate.
