當你和心跳一起出現 In A Heartbeat, full song !
https://www.bilibili.com/video/av79938756

Album NAKED TRUTH will be released in August 2020...
Actually one song off the album will be released every month until August 24th 2020, Elva's birthday. Together, they will form the digital version of NAKED TRUTH.
Then her new World Tour will start, and, if I understood correctly, a limited physical version of each single will be released for collectioners.

Elva's In A Hearbeat MV will air in 15 minutes...


An official English translation of the song is also available in the video's description !
Quote:
醒來雙眼迷濛
Waking up with eyes blurred
空白了有幾秒鐘
Blanked out for a few seconds
是什麼浮上心頭
What came to mind
讓人賴在被窩
Lying in bed
讓人捨不得 動
Reluctant to move

也曾經solo 一首情歌重複太久
Been repeating the same love song for too long
時間受盡了冷落於是掉頭就走
Been left out from time to time so that I choose to walk way from love
今天之後有你的笑容 當作鬧鐘
From now on, your smile is what wakes me up every morning.
突然清楚 記得 夢的輪廓
Suddenly it all comes to mind that this is what I’ve dreamt of.

當你和心跳一起出現 我用力眨眼
Whenever I close my eyes, you become my heartbeat.
要確定此刻不是幻覺 記住 這種感覺
Hold on to this feeling. It’s not an illusion.
是不是我太幸運 能夠 再愛一遍
I feel so blessed that I am able to love again.

Once again

當你和心跳一起出現 我就 害怕眨眼
Don’t wanna close my eyes, you are my heartbeat
要確定此刻不是幻覺 刻下 這幅畫面
Remember this moment. It’s not an illusion
對 就當我不顧一切
Giving it all, I try
你又在我腦海裡 盤旋又盤旋
又盤旋 又盤旋
Because I just can’t stop
Can’t stop thinking about your

嗚嗚嗚嗚
woo woo woo woo

穿過熱鬧街頭
Passing through a crowded street
停下腳步幾秒鐘
I stop for a few seconds
人群裡我不寂寞
I know I’m not lonely anymore
只想知道你在
When I think of you
你在做些什 麼
And everything about you

也曾經失望太多只能有所保留
Been disappointed too many times so I keep my distance
時間受盡了委屈於是掉頭就走
Been hurt for too long so that I walked away from love
今天決定把你的笑容當作寄託
But today when I saw your smile and I feel safe,
突然清楚 記得 夢的輪廓
I suddenly see the outline of the love I’ve dreamt of

當你和心跳一起出現 我用力眨眼
Whenever I close my eyes, you become my heartbeat.
要確定此刻不是幻覺 記住 這種感覺
Hold on to this feeling. It’s not an illusion.
一定是我太幸運 能夠 再愛一遍
I must be so lucky to be able to love again

Oh once again


當你和心跳一起出現 我就 害怕眨眼
Don’t wanna close my eyes, you are my heartbeat
要確定此刻不是幻覺 刻下 這幅畫面
Remember this moment. It’s not an illusion
對 我就是中你的邪
You’ve casted a spell on me
你又在我腦海裡 盤旋又盤旋
又盤旋 又盤旋
Because I just can’t stop,
Can’t stop thinking about you

有了你想訴說
Now I have you to talk to
有了你的感動
And I’m so moved by you
有了你的美好 不需要 anymore
Now I have you, I don’t need to look anymore
有了你已足夠 全心愛 more & more
You are more than anything that I could ever ask for,
Giving it all. More and more.

ergh, I don't know .. it is a nice song, I've just expected much more. Some bop, to be honest, like Shut and Kiss Me, I am Ready, Miss Elva etc.
After a 6-year long break, we deserve a bit more.
Both song and MV is not bad, but it is just too ordinary, nothing worth remembering. They spend so much money shooting this, so I expected something, idk, more special (?)

According to what Elva said last week in interviews, this time she did not want to start her promotion with a slow/sad song or an upbeat song, because "we all need romance at the moment", IIRC.

I totally agree with you though, basically, if you have seen the teaser, you have seen the whole mv...
I really wanted something upbeat from her since I'm not really into her ballads... If she releases several ballads in a row she's going to lose me

Depends on the ballad. Ray of Light from I'm Ready is a particular favorite of mine.

This is OK. It's good to hear her. It's just a slow approach to returning. I'd love for her to come back with a thorough effort like Jolin did, like Show did. It doesn't have to be a hit. I just want to Elva to show she's still a performer.

hmm, where is a new song? shouldn't there be a new song every month till August?

yeah, I know she still has three days to release it, but ... wasn't it postponed due to Chinese New Year celebration? Since there is usually absolutely nothing being released during that time.

I think this was the perfect song for her 'comeback'. Goes back to her roots of that mid-tempo RnB and that voice that I think is so recognisably Elva.

The song is so reminiscent of songs like other classic Elva songs like 因爲你,沒有人, 薔薇.

If she released some EDM bop, it would just be the same rehashed formulaic generic song... I do like her fast songs but they can be so impersonal. I feel all her fast songs attempt to match 愛的主打歌 but that is an impossible feat.

Listening to the lyrics for 當你和心跳一起出現 you can tell it's a love letter between her and her fans that have stuck with her so long. The end of the chorus '又盤旋, 又盤旋,又盤旋~~‘ part is just infectious.

what kind of comparison is that?
Of course, no one wanted "formulaic generic EDM song", basically any song, no matter if ballad, rock or whatever song, would be better than some " formulaic generic EDM song" if you are using such comparison.
If you would compare "formulaic generic EDM song" with basically any song, of course that other song would win such kind of comparison, it doesn't really matter if that song is 當你和心跳一起出現 or any other song.

But who is saying we wanted her to come with some "formulaic generic EDM song" as you suggested?

For example, Jolin is still doing bops, and if she could have come with Ugly Beauty in 2018, Elva could also bring us something more iconic in 2019 as well.

I am not saying 當你和心跳一起出現 is a bad song, actually it has grown with me, but after 6 years of inactivity, I would expect something more special - you can call it "bop", I call it more special kind of song than "just" basically pretty ordinary sound of 當你和心跳一起出現.

If 當你和心跳一起出現 would have been released one / two years after Shut up and Kiss Me, I would be saying okay, she is trying do it differently this time. But waiting 6 years for her comeback ... I don't know I just expected a little bit more. Definitely didn't want "formulaic generic EDM song" as you call it, but maybe something with a little bit more idea, something a little bit more unexpected, something new from her ... that's all.

Finally found an article, which unsurprisingly says that Elva's comeback plans have been altered because of coronavirus...
This month she "exposed" her boyfriend publicly and talked about their relationship quite a lot on TV, and in interviews.

It's rumoured to be called 不如先庆祝 能在一起 Celebrate // Everyday, no release date yet.

Don't be fooled by this a cappella preview, according to fans it won't be a ballad.

New single coming tomorrow !
