Play (Chinese: 呸) is the thirteenth studio album by Taiwanese singer Jolin Tsai, released on November 15, 2014, by Warner.[1] The album features a rich variety of musical styles and covers diverse themes, with production by Starr Chen, Andrew Chen, Tiger Chung, JJ Lin, and Michael Lin.[2][3]
In Taiwan, the album sold over 85,000 copies,[4] making it the fourth best-selling album of 2014 and the top-selling album by a female artist that year.[5] Play received ten nominations at the Golden Melody Awards, becoming one of the most-nominated albums in the award's history.[6] It ultimately won Best Mandarin Album and Best Vocal Recording Album, while Andrew Chen earned the Best Single Producer Award for his work on the track "Lip Reading".[7]
Following the album's release, Tsai launched her fifth concert tour, the Play World Tour, which began on May 22, 2015, in Taipei, Taiwan,[8] and concluded on July 16, 2016, in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.[9]
Background and development
On April 13, 2013, Tsai revealed that she had begun preparations for a new album.[10] On July 25, 2013, she traveled to London for a month-long training program focused on music, dance, and performance.[11] On November 22, 2013, she shared that the album was still in the song selection phase.[12] On January 29, 2014, media reports indicated that Tsai would take full creative control of the album's production, with potential for international collaborations. The production budget was reported to exceed NT$50 million.[13]
On April 4, 2014, it was reported that the album was expected to be released in the summer and might include tracks co-written by Tsai herself.[14] By June 10, 2014, she had already recorded three songs for the album, but decided to re-record them in search of better interpretation.[15] On September 5, 2014, Tsai announced that the album was nearing completion and scheduled for release by the end of the year.[16]
Writing and production
The lead single, "Play", features lyrics that humorously reflect the absurd yet all-too-real aspects of modern life, encouraging listeners to find joy amid the chaos.[17] The second single, "The Third Person and I", explores how people often cope with hardship by emotionally distancing themselves, pretending it has nothing to do with them.[18] "Medusa" was the most time-consuming production on the album. It took two years of licensing negotiations and rearrangements to complete, blending dance-pop with trap music.[19] "We're All Different, Yet the Same" is rooted in R&B and addresses themes of diverse families and marriage equality.[19] Inspired by a true story, lyricist Albert Leung noted that love should be a right, not merely an abstract belief.[20] "Gentlewomen" fuses noise rock with alternative dance music.[19] Inspired by Simone de Beauvoir's book The Second Sex,[21] the lyrics use "one" and "zero" to symbolize the power of femininity.[22]
"Lip Reading" was inspired by Marilyn Monroe and incorporates trip-hop beats with theatrical elements, conveying the nuanced emotional world of women. "I'm Not Yours" is a collaboration between Tsai and Namie Amuro, blending electronic dance with elements of dubstep.[23] "I Love, I Embrace" is a soft rock track that encourages self-acceptance and fearlessness in the face of judgment.[24] "Phony Queen" served as the theme for the online game We Dancing Online DX and combines house music with satirical lyrics that comment on society's growing obsession with mobile phones.[25][26] "Miss Trouble" fuses opera with trap music, featuring Tsai performing coloratura soprano vocals in a humorous portrayal of modern internet culture.[19]
Title and artwork
The album title Play carries multiple meanings such as script, performance, and role-playing. Tsai explained that the title reflects her recent insights about life—she sees life as a grand stage where, although we can't choose the roles we're born into, we can rewrite our stories through effort and resilience.[27]
The "Actress Edition", one of the album's pre-order versions, features Tsai on the cover wearing a sheer red ombré trench coat by The Blonds, paired with voluminous golden curls. The accompanying photo booklet also showcases pieces from the same designer, and the visuals were shot by Marko Krunic, emphasizing a dramatic, theatrical aesthetic.[27] In the "Medusa Edition", Tsai dons a custom-made Medusa-inspired outfit by Versace—marking the first time Versace has tailored a design for an Asian artist. The cover and booklet images were shot by Wing Shya and CK Chan, respectively.[28]
The standard edition's cover and photo booklet were photographed by renowned visual artist Chen Man, with fashion direction by stylist Wyman Wong.[29] The photo themes include "Sexy Playful Child", "Angry Good Girl", and "Vintage Lady Spy". Outfits featured include an oversized suit by Comme des Garçons, a deep green embroidered tulle gown by Valentino, and a black leather maxi skirt by Lanvin.[19] The packaging, designed by Aaron Nieh, embraces a minimalist style with a bold all-black background and stylized typography. The album's booklet consists of six double-sided full-color posters.[19] Additionally, the deluxe edition of the album features a new set of visuals, also shot by Chen Man with styling by Wyman Wong.[30]
