Not Tonight, It’s not time to leave yet
What immeasurable power must I possess, to get to where you are?
Not Tonight, not this moment
What more must I lose, in order to have you back?
In this moment, I am certain
My heart is pounding wildly, like its bursting out of my chest
It’s not time, not tonight
I can’t leave you now, I can’t leave what I have
还不是时候，还不能离开你
该怎麽竭力狂奔才能奔向你
还不是时候，不该是此刻
还有什麽能失去才能唤回你
此刻的坚定
衝出心脏 不停窜动
还不是时候，还不具任何说服力
足以抛下世界失去你
Not resting on his laurels after the release of English track, While I Can, JJ surprises fans once again with a highly anticipated collaboration with world-renowned electronic dance producer and award winning DJ, Steve Aoki. The latest track, Not Tonight (Tomorrow Sounds Good Steve Aoki Remix), is JJ’s first foray into the EDM genre.
The song depicts one’s conflicting struggles—the difficulty in letting go of a loved one, and the difficulty in embracing one’s self. When the struggle is overwhelming and giving up seems the most obvious choice, you harness all the strength you have to softly yet firmly tell yourself, “Not Tonight”. Through JJ’s vocals and Aoki’s DJ-ing, the song showcases a stronger and brighter rhythm of electronic music, with the focus on one’s redemption on that dark night, evoking the psychedelia, sensibility, and the swing of the song.
This is JJ and Steve Aoki’s very first collaborative effort. Through the amalgamation of the Chinese culture’s sensibility and the avant-gardism of the West, the narrative illustrates a subtle yet profound contrast of beauty in both cultures. This is also demonstrated in the music video, where JJ navigates between time and space, in a quest for brotherhood, much like JJ and Steve Aoki each coming together in real life from different time zones and different parts of the world to lend their mastery to Not Tonight (Tomorrow Sounds Good Steve Aoki Remix).
继［While I Can］之后，跳脱理所当然的思维，超越歌迷的想像，抢先释出JJ与世界前十大DJ - Steve Aoki合作【Not Tonight】（Tomorrow Sounds Good Steve Aoki Remix）版本，这是JJ跨足EDM领域的第一步，歌曲中面对难以放下的对象与难以释怀的自我，真实情感的不断拉扯，还不能放弃的这夜晚，从JJ的自由低喃中解放开。并且透过Steve Aoki的DJ-ing，投入更强烈与明亮的电音节奏，能量一触即发，救赎那个黑夜中的自我，进化整首歌曲的迷幻且感性，提炼出捉摸不定的摇摆。
［Not Tonight］（Tomorrow Sounds Good Steve Aoki Remix）是JJ正式启动【Like You Do】EP的单曲，在【Like You Do】EP中，JJ Lin回到做音乐的本质面貌说故事，当这个语言更加直觉，遇见的自己就越加真实。他远赴异地，寻找更多不同的声音，当没有任何模板框架，跳脱以往的创作模式，他的音乐更加自我也更加自由。与全新的音乐伙伴合作，无论曲、词，JJ自在地享受，完全地吸收来自不同的音乐人所给予的能量，共同激盪出不同以往的音乐风格。一切不经设定、没有设限也没有包袱，放下习惯的唱腔，衝撞出全新的声音。所有面貌都是最原始最崭新，也是翻面后的第一页。
这是JJ与Steve Aoki首次合作，华语的感性与西洋的前卫形成微妙的衝突美感，MV中也演绎出此音乐特性，两个截然不同的时空背景下，JJ从简约科技感空间去实现另一个时空的兄弟情谊。在EDM曲风的英文歌中，置入充满东方色彩的温度，冷暖交替。JJ与Steve Aoki跨时空的面对面对峙，随著音乐的消长，激发出震撼的能量。
