Taiwan’s Queen of Pop Jolin Tsai was recently featured on a YouTube channel with a one-take performance. The hit song "Womxnly" was performed on Japanese music channel "The First Take," where pop stars are challenged to perform a song just one time in the studio. The unforgiving format gives fans a glimpse into a less polished version of their idol’s stage persona. The producers of the channel encourage stars to treat the recording like a live concert. Tsai’s online appearance received 600,000 views in just 12 hours.
The Queen of Pop, Jolin Tsai, takes a deep breath before launching into a rendition of her hit song “Womxnly,” on Japanese music channel “The First Take.”
This guitar-accompanied performance is very different from the original. Tsai only got one take, piling on the pressure.
She stood in the middle of a brightly-lit recording studio, circled by multiple cameras. She said that her heart was thumping so she couldn’t tell if it was excitement or nerves – but it was a “fun experience.”
Singer WeiBird has previously appeared on the channel, becoming the first Taiwanese musician to feature.
These arrangements always differ from the original, bringing a fresh sound to even the most loyal of fans. The YouTube channel has won international attention for its live-style recordings, with more than 8 million subscribers. For pop stars, this “one take” format is a new kind of test.

開始之前、先深呼吸準備,天后蔡依林登上日本音樂頻道"THE FIRST TAKE",重新詮釋獻唱"玫瑰少年"。
編曲風格跟原版不同,搭配吉他手彈奏,錄音全程必須一鏡到底,得克服零失誤壓力。
站在明亮的錄音間,同時被多台攝影機環繞,也讓Jolin感受到心臟怦怦跳,不知道是興奮還是緊張,坦言是個有趣經驗。
其實韋禮安也曾獲邀參與節目,成為台灣歌手第一人,將人氣歌曲推向國際。
有別於原版唱腔,編曲重新改造力求突破,令人耳目一新。日本音樂頻道以只有一次的演出機會聞名,創下800萬人訂閱,看得出來、對歌手來說,真的是一大考驗。
