　　1. The Hunan TV programme's format is actually from South Korea's MBC network.

　　湖南臺(tái)的《我是歌手》節(jié)目形式借鑒自韓國(guó)文化廣播公司

　　Instead of newcomers jostling for a share of the limelight, the format here pits professional singers against each other. There are no judges. Instead, the singers are ranked according to the votes cast by a live audience.

　　和那些讓新人去爭(zhēng)奪眼球的節(jié)目不同，《我是歌手》讓職業(yè)歌手們互相競(jìng)爭(zhēng)。節(jié)目中沒(méi)有裁判，由現(xiàn)場(chǎng)觀眾對(duì)歌手們進(jìn)行投票排名。

　　3. A contestant has to sing material by other singers except for the first song, and, if he or she makes it that far, for the finale number.

　　參賽選手的第一首歌和最后一首歌(如果他能走的足夠遠(yuǎn))必須是其他歌手的作品。

　　For her first number, Chan picked Shino Lin's Tempting Heart, a ballad she had covered on her last album Re-interpreting Kit Chan (2011).

　　陳潔儀的第一首歌是《心動(dòng)》，她曾在2011年的《重譯》專輯里收錄了這首由林曉培原唱的傷感情歌。

　　4. I Am A Singer has boosted the careers of artists
