A legend of the "Asian Dance King": From "Unending Love to You" to "Unending Love forever", 30 years never give up

Speaking of Guo Fucheng, I must know everyone. Aaron Kwok is an all-round entertainer spanning music, movies and stage performances, a representative of lively singing and dancing, a multi-faceted superstar, a condensed symbol of Hong Kong pop culture; perfect dance art and superb acting skills have made him an immortal Peter Pan in the performing arts; from Aaron Kwok In his body, he can see the ups and downs of the entire Hong Kong entertainment industry, the former youth idol, and the subsequent struggle achievements, the never-say-failure spirit, is the projection of the 20-year tide of Hong Kong's performing arts industry.

So, what kind of performance does this outstanding artist have in music and dance? This is what the editor will analyze today.

Breaking the "sweet music" and shaping the "dance music"

In 1985, Aaron Kwok received the then TVB artist manager Feng Meiji because of his outstanding performance in singing and dancing in the election of Miss Bodybuilding. In 1987, he was transferred to the wireless artist training class to become an artist. He graduated with the first place and was one of the wireless "Galaxy Ten Stars" at that time.

In 1990, Aaron Kwok shot an advertisement for Gwangyang Locomotive DJ1-RR in Taiwan and became famous. Later, he appeared in an advertisement for the taste of love, a chocolate drink, and the ad slogan "You are my chocolate" was widely used. spread.

was subsequently invited by the manager Liu Weici to join Fulong Communication Company. In September 1990, he released the first Mandarin album "I Can't End Love You", which started his acting career.

This album is Aaron Kwok's first album in his career as a singer, but the background is not small. The album was produced by Chen Xiunan, Chen Lerong, Ding Xiaowen and others. In addition, excellent singers such as Zhang Yusheng, Wang Jie, Zhang Hongliang, Tai Zhengxiao provided creative inspiration for the album.

In the album, Aaron Kwok’s sassy dancing posture, affectionate eyes, handsome hair, handsome appearance, and a casual cowboy style show his dancing ability.

The title song "I Can't End Love for You" completely expresses Aaron Kwok's style. It is also one of the most popular songs by the public.

"I can't end my love for you" is the title song of the album of the same name. It fully expresses the style of Aaron Kwok. It is also one of the most popular songs of the public. It is very nice, this love song. It expresses the romantic sweetness and hardship of men and women in love. The dance music is full of flavor, and Aaron Kwok's stage performance is even more energetic, which is deeply loved by young fans.

was also popular with fans for his first Mandarin album "I Can’t End To Love You". The sales in Asia exceeded 1 million. At the end of the year, Taiwan was voted as "Top Ten Hong Kong Stars" and Aaron Kwok ranked first among male stars.

In 1994, the Cantonese album "Wild City" was launched. Aaron Kwok began to change from the style of music to the image packaging, forming a stage style of singing and dancing.

In terms of image packaging, Aaron Kwok's hairstyle and clothing are endlessly changing, and various image characters can be handy. Moreover, the rich and innovative ideas in the packaging of these images can be subtly extended to Aaron Kwok's songs and drive Aaron Kwok's singing level to slowly improve.

"Iceberg Dream Beauty" has a strong sense of rhythm, which is Guo Fucheng's consistent fast song style. The two English lyrics in the middle have the same rhyme as the Chinese lyrics, making the whole song more contagious. The two songs "Trust in Spring" and "I am the real me" are light-hearted and beautiful, and the lyrics are quite philosophical and can give people a little inspiration. "I am the real me" Aaron Kwok sang the mentality of young people to pursue their ideals and move forward courageously; even if there are setbacks, they still do not change their original beliefs.

successively released albums such as "The Temptation of the Iron Curtain", "The Legend of Innocence", "The Call of Love", "Sing the Song", and "The Allure".

And the loss at the 1994 awards ceremony made AARON and all AARONFANS feel unfair. Because that year, Aaron not only successfully held his own large-scale concert in Hong Kong, but also had a very high distribution density. But at the end of the year awards ceremony it was a complete defeat. Aaron Kwok also said at the time: I hope I will meet a good song next year.

And the music of "Legend of Innocence" gives people a feeling of wanting to dance, the pitch is high, but Aaron can sing easily, and it sounds like a hard work.

"Qiang" is a rare inspirational song, Lin Zhenqiang's words add a lot to this song. "Heaven and Earth Are Incompatible" is another piece by Lei Songde. After listening to this song, I felt this in my heart: There was another rare musician in the music scene in Hong Kong. "Wang Xiangxiang" expresses the yearning for home, this style of work Aaron has never tried before. "What Is It" excellent street dance music background, listening to the entire album, it feels 100% attentive. There is no one to make up the numbers.

I have to say that although Aaron Kwok is famous for his hot dance, his 1995 "Legend of Innocence" album can be described as a milestone in his music history, which was grabbed at the music awards ceremony that year. It won the limelight of the other three kings.

It can be said that the four heavenly kings have an unbreakable position in the Hong Kong music scene throughout the 1990s, sharing most of the awards of the top ten Chinese golden music awards concerts.

As Zhu Yaowei said in "The Object in the Ci-Hong Kong Pop Lyrics Discovery": " I always believe that it is the best age and the worst age. "

"Asian Dance King", "Stage King", broke the Guinness record

Entering the 21st world, Aaron Kwok does not have too many new music works, more is a rap concert, Stage show.

In the past, in 1994, Aaron Kwok stepped into the Red Pavilion and held 16 wild seduction concerts, and performed 16 powerful dances, performing mechanical dances and tap dances. The album released by Aaron Kwok Wild Temptation Concert was also The only Chinese album purchased by Michael Jackson.

And in December 2000, Aaron Kwok held 28 consecutive "Live on Stage in Concert 2001" concerts in the Red Hall, which was the most consecutive singing in his career.

At the concert, Aaron's crystal costumes were dazzling one after another, and the dance after another was even more breathtaking. Aaron, who rarely sings other people’s songs, also sings the famous songs of the other three kings, including "The Day I Don’t Want You" (Dawn), "The Days We Live Together" (Andy Lau) and "I Love You More Every Day" (Jacky Cheung) . This "Live on Stage in Concert 2001" contains a complete collection of the entire concert, with a total of 37 songs, which is definitely an inevitable choice for everyone.

In addition, "Live on Stage in Concert 2000/2001" is considered to "suggest the end of the four kings, but also herald the beginning of the era of the queen." Guo Tianwang rarely sang the songs of the other three heavenly kings, and the dance performance was also breathtaking. Among them, the "Memorandum of Understanding on Amnesia" looks like MJ, but it is more dynamic and powerful, and it is estimated that the performers themselves will be difficult to replicate.

In 2005, Aaron Kwok was awarded the Hong Kong Dance Annual Award for his performance in "Aaron Kwok's Stage Collection@舞林大汇 Concert 2004" and became the first entertainment artist to win this award.

Guo Fucheng said after receiving the award: " I am a dancer from the background, I have a dream, is to get an award related to dance, today I finally get it, I will not give up dancing. "

Indeed, in his prosperous career, Aaron Kwok's radiant performance in performances, entertainment and singing are often praised by peers and audiences. But his artistry, skills, creativity, energy and devotion in dance are also respected by the dance profession.

In 2008, Aaron Kwok’s Dance Forest Live Concert 450° rotating stage set the Guinness World Record, becoming the largest spin in the global concert.Turn the stage. Wu Lin Zheng Chuan Taipei Arena Station, a record nearly 200 celebrities went to observe. He won the calligraphy of "The King of Stage" from Fudan University's calligrapher Professor Zhang Zhengang for his inland tour in Shanghai.

He jokingly said that at the moment of receiving the certificate, he felt like an athlete who won a gold medal in the Olympics. " has reached such a peak in his acting career and his life has no regrets ".

Also, he smiled and said: "I have to hold it tightly, it's so heavy! It's amazing!" He said moved, "I have always wanted to have a breakthrough concert. I have won many awards, but this honor is a commemorative event in my acting career in my life. A total of 16 concerts were held in the two parts of the concert, and 170,000 people witnessed it together. No regrets!"

I have to say that Aaron Kwok promotes dance to the front line of trend culture with his superb and exciting dance performances, and also helps the audience realize that dance is actually a rich and meaningful expression. Full of motivation, fluency and superb skills, Mr. Aaron Kwok's dance complements and strengthens this art and brings it closer to the public.

The spirit of never giving up from "Unending Love to You" to "Unending Love forever"!

came to 2010, Aaron Kwok released the album "Forever Love".

In 1990, Aaron Kwok became popular all over Taiwan with a song "I Can't End Love for You", and he became the king of the stage and has won the Chinese music scene for 20 years. To commemorate the 20th anniversary of his debut, Aaron Kwok released a commemorative album "Forever Love", and specially introduced the 20th anniversary single "Forever Love" composed by Jay Chou and Xiaomei, in order to thank the fans who have never left for many years. support.

This 20th anniversary album is full of weight, and the music scenes involved in the creation include Jay Chou, Jin Peida, Zhang Jiatian, Yang Zhenbang, Chen Huanren, Edward Chan, Davy Tam, and Aaron Kwok, the manager and lyricist Xiao Mei who has been working side by side for many years. , Work together to record this thoughtful and meaningful album!

The title song is the song "Forever Love Endless" composed by Taiwanese creator Jay Chou for Aaron Kwok, and the creation of this song is also full of meaning and thoughts! When Aaron Kwok invited Jay Chou to a song, he never expected that Jay Chou would write such an "alternative affectionate" work!

In addition to this title song, Aaron Kwok also wants to challenge himself, join the ranks of singer-songwriters, and personally composed a song "Pulse" for fans, implying that he and the fans are connected to each other and will always interact with each other! After the arrangement of this song was completed, even the music master Jin Peida also praised it! I think it is not like a novice composer, and it has the taste of Aaron Kwok, elegant and a little musical!

And in 2019 last year, Aaron Kwok also served as the head teacher of "Creation Camp 2019".

Because this program group is very attentive, directly presenting all the clips that Aaron Kwok has experienced, so Aaron Kwok is particularly moved by what he was like when they were so young. Aaron Kwok first became famous because of the song "I can't finish it to you", which became popular in 1991, and then moved from Taiwan to Hong Kong for development, and then to the mainland.

And in this variety show, Aaron Kwok also talked about the contestants coming to participate in the creation camp 2019 are very clean, energetic, sunny, and positive young people. He thinks that compared with him back then, he is actually not as confident, capable and contagious as the young people now.

Anyway, Guo Fucheng was really handsome when he was young. Now although he is older, we still like the temperament in him.

Indeed, he broke the stereotype of the previous Hong Kong and Taiwan song "Popular Music". The idol image and dance music expression he created influenced the initial understanding of popular music by a generation.

From "I Endless Love to You" to "I Endless Love Forever""Now in 2020, he will still be the Asian dance king, and the spirit of never giving up!
