Ms. Dong’s note: In the Chinese music scene, there is a person who is the one we look up to. Even such inspiring names as Li Zongsheng , Zhou Huajian , Jay Chou and Lin Xi are also among us.
The Golden Melody Awards, known as the Chinese Grammy Awards, is the highest-level awards ceremony in the Chinese music world. Singers from both sides of the Taiwan Strait and three places are proud to be nominated for the award, and very few of them can win the award, which is nothing less than the highest praise for their musical achievements.
Over the years, the Golden Melody Awards ceremony has been regarded as a grand event in the Chinese music scene. Today we will review the scene that happened at the 19th Golden Melody Awards , which confirms the existence of this song that everyone looks up to. Although he did not win any music awards that night, he was undoubtedly the most watched protagonist in the audience.
When he came on stage, the whole audience stood up to pay tribute. Even the godfather of music, Li Zongsheng, and the pop king of the music industry, Zhou Huajian, were all attentive to him! When he wanted to sing and play the piano, Li Zongsheng and Zhou Huajian, two big brothers in the music industry, even condescended to him. One used his T-shirt to wipe the piano for him, and the other used his sleeve to wipe his seat! Then step aside and listen to him singing respectfully!
Jay Chou, the winner of 4 consecutive awards, has repeatedly criticized the unfairness of the Golden Melody Awards, but he still regards him as his idol! He told a joke that made fun of Lin Xi on stage, but the Xiangjiang Ci God still respected him full of respect!
Looking at the current Chinese music scene, where everyone is looking at the heroes, how many people can enjoy this treatment? !
The 19th Golden Melody Awards ceremony was held at the Taipei Arena on the evening of June 5, 2008. The host lineup was composed of Big S, Tao Jingying , Patty Hou , and the guests present were also star-studded. The nominees for Best Female Singer are Zhang Huimei , Stefanie Sun , Leung Jingru , Tanya Tsai , Karen Mok and Chun-Jia Choi . The Best Male Singer are Eason Chan , Tank, Xin, Yang Peian , Cao Ge, Fang Datong.
The most important title of King of Songs and Queen of Songs was unexpectedly won by Cao Ge and Tanya Chua. Although Jay Chou, the king who represents the new forces in the music industry, was not present, he won 4 awards including Best Song of the Year, Best Composer in Performance and Singing Categories, and Best Album Producer. He became the first person to cross-border golden songs with unlimited glory.
In addition to awarding awards to winning singers, the Golden Melody Awards also specially set up three interesting links. Canadian singer "City Musician Daniel" was invited, and he and Jolin Tsai presented the award for the best female singer. There was also the "Jakusho Trio" from Japan, who all participated in the live theme performances.
In the "To You in Heaven" segment, the organizing committee invited Yang Zongwei and Lin Youjia to collaborate to pay tribute to the late singer Zhang Yusheng , Teresa Teng and Leslie Cheung . They were both stars of the talent show " Super The singer who came out of "Avenue of Stars " also has a deep love for Yuliang.
The climax of the atmosphere appeared in the "Music Temple" session.
Voice-over: I would like to introduce to you a performance that is truly like the big brother of The Beatles. Welcome to Chow Huajian.
Chow Huajian was the first to appear, playing and singing his own composition " I Will Marry You Tomorrow ". This was a new work in his early debut, which laid the foundation for The foundation of "Hua Dan Zhou Huajian". Then a short introduction of Zhou Huajian by the organizing committee appeared on the big screen.
Zhou Huajian is the king of Asian Chinese pop music.
His powerful singing skills and king-like popularity have earned him the reputation of "King of National Songs"
He has released more than 40 music albums. Zhang, with cumulative sales of over 10 million
Because of his sunny and healthy appearance, he was called the "Sunshine Wanderer"
After finishing the song, Zhou Huajian began to carry "Big Brother" to the stage. He said
"The applause will be more and more The more you get, the more the screams will get.Don’t dare to be a big brother. In fact, it’s a very simple truth. Time flies. After a period of training, a daughter-in-law will become a mother-in-law. Every daughter-in-law will have a mother-in-law. Every mother-in-law will have a mother-in-law above her. Any elder brother will have a mother-in-law above. There is a big brother, and above the big brother there is a big brother. Today I want to introduce to you my big brother, who is both my teacher and my very good friend, Li Zongsheng! "
The background music "Mortal Song" played. Li Zongsheng walked out from the backstage happily with a singing guitar on his back. There was even a bit of shyness on his face. He paid tribute to the audience again and again, full of humility.
What Li Zongsheng is about Zhou Huajian is the well-deserved leader. Before Zhou Huajian debuted, he was singing in a restaurant. It was Li Zongsheng who discovered him and brought him into the music circle. He persuaded Rolling Stone Records to produce his first album himself, and Li Zongsheng also took care of him. He taught him how to write lyrics and compose music, pushing Zhou Huajian to the throne of king.
He is an old man, and he was very cute when he came up. He said that he had been working behind the scenes and was still a new singer, so he showed off a little. I have held two concerts at the Little Arena, and I also advertised for Zhou Huajian's next concert.
Big brother is indeed a big brother. No matter what the occasion, he never forgets to cheer up his younger brother! Said, there is a big brother above the big brother!
Li Zongsheng took over: I often hear people say that I grew up listening to your songs, but I want to introduce one of my big brothers. I grew up listening to his songs. Welcome Luo Dayou
The background music of " Lugang Town ", Luo Dayou walked directly from the auditorium to the stage, scolding the two younger brothers as he walked: You have to wait until the anniversary or memorial service to find me. Come out.
As a godfather-level big brother, of course you have to show off first. Luo Dayou first told a short story
A few days ago in Hong Kong, I heard that they were called Lin Xi, who wrote more than 3,000 lyrics. Call him "Master Xi". I called Lin Xi and said that they have been calling you Master Xi for several years. What do you think, Mr. Luo!
The last sentence of "Master Luo" is simply a stroke of genius. Everyone in the audience was amused. But then again, Lin Xi called Luo Dayou "Luo Gong", but it didn't change his name at all. After all, he also followed Luo Dayou around in the early 1990s. When he opened a music factory in Hong Kong, he recruited the unknown Lin Xi to his staff. After that, Lin Xi shined in the Cantonese poetry world.
In 2008, when Lin Xi won the Golden Needle Award, the organizing committee specially invited Luo Dayou to sing for him. Awarding. Lin Xi has great respect for this godfather who is also a teacher and friend. He once said frankly that music is both a commodity and a work of art. He writes lyrics for his own livelihood. Among many musicians, only Luo Dayou can afford to be an "artist". "This title.
Let's go back to a conversation between the three people at the scene.
Li Zongsheng: The elders and younger ones are in order. Let's ask Luo Dayou to sing first.
Luo Dayou: I'm afraid those songs are too old and no one has heard them.
Zhou Huajian: No, big brother, we all grew up listening to your songs.
Luo Dayou: Fortunately, I look pretty good, but I’m afraid that if you grow up listening to my songs, you won’t look good.
Luo Dayou walked to the piano to sing. Li Zongsheng and Zhou Huajian were like two elementary school students who love to show off, hurried to the front. One used a T-shirt to help him clean the piano, and the other used his sleeves to help him clean the bench.
Li Zongsheng wiped it carefully from left to right several times. After Zhou Huajian finished wiping, he helped the eldest brother to move the chair out and rubbed his shoulders. Then he stood aside politely and listened to his elder brother singing, with so much respect that it was beyond words. Luo Dayou played and sang " Love Song 1980" and specifically asked Zhou Huajian and Li Zongsheng, "If I forget the lyrics, the two younger brothers can help me with it."
Luo Dayou, the godfather of Taiwanese pop music, composed and sang
"Love Song 1980", " Love Song 1990", "Lukang Town", "Comrade Lover"
and other popular Chinese and Taiwanese Cantonese songs
which influenced the late 1980s. In the early 1990s, the entire Chinese music scene
Luo Dayou sang a song, and then the three sang Li Zongsheng's classic song "I am a little bird"
Li Zongsheng, the godfather of rock in Taiwan
In 1979, he organized and participated in the "Acoustic Guitar Choir"
80 The most powerful songwriter and record producer
in the pop music scene of the 1990s is also known as the "Million Producer". He has produced countless popular songs
and won numerous music honors and awards.
The Golden Melody Award organizing committee gave Li Zongsheng the " The title "Godfather of Rock and Roll" is really puzzling, probably because the wording is not rigorous. Lao Li has always been good at urban love songs, and is known to everyone as the godfather of love songs. From Chen Shuhua , Zhou Huajian to Karen Mok and Liang Jingru, this has always been the case. The godfather of rock music in Taiwan, Luo Dayou, counting down, is , five hundred and .
Li Zongsheng and Zhou Huajian's respectful attitude towards Luo Dayou is the word "submit" in capital letters. Because he is the singer who opened the door to the times, the creator who gave Chinese pop music the soul, and the first godfather of Chinese pop music who can be called a "monument"!
It is normal for everyone to be so respectful to him. Let’s take a look at everyone’s evaluation of him.
Li Zongsheng: “When I was a member of the acoustic guitar team of the school 20 years ago, he (Luo Dayou) was a superstar. I used to look up to describe my idol at that time. He In my heart, he is a heroic figure, a symbol of an era, and his talent for music creation is unparalleled. Luo Dayou is a person I admire very much. He created a historical stage of Taiwanese music."
Jay Chou: "I think Luo Dayou is a contemporary singer. What songs can be circulated for more than 3 years? Very few, but Luo Dayou's songs can. To be a singer is to become history, to become the spokesperson of an era, to make everyone think of I think of him in this era. My goal is to be like Luo Dayou, the godfather of music in this era."
Zhou Huajian: "When I was studying, there were no songs to listen to. Luo Dayou appeared when I was mentally empty. He often has some special ideas and combines words, lyrics and music very well. I admire him very much. "
The reason why everyone in the Chinese music world respects Luo Dayou as "the godfather" is because his sense of responsibility to society is revealed in every word. Profound insight and ultimate humanistic care are qualities not possessed by ordinary composers and singers. But Luo Dayou did it, and indeed no one can match him.
