has been in the industry for more than 30 years. Tao Jingying, 52, finally has the opportunity to hold a concert at the Taipei Dome. Speaking of which, the concert was held in a row and twists and turns. In fact, this concert should have been held in 2020. Unfortunately, it was affected by the epidemic and was postponed twice. As a result, the postponement lasted for one and a half years, and it was not held until July 30, 2022. Therefore, it also turned the concert of 30 years of debut into a concert of 32 years of debut. However, she is not afraid of being too late, and the form of the music content has not changed. Tao Jingying just wants to use the concert to review her growth process, and also uses this concert to complete her idea of "cooperating" with different musicians, so she created many surprises in terms of the guests.
Many people probably don’t know, or forget that Tao Jingying’s original identity was a singer, while hosts, writers, etc. are actually the “side jobs”. Of course, it is undeniable that in the past 30 years of development, her identity has become diversified and her achievements in hosts are far better than singers, which has led to a "reversal" in her personal identity. In 1990, Tao Jingying released her solo album - this is why she will hold her 30th anniversary concert in 2020. When she debuted as a singer, Tao Jingying's development was very unsuccessful. She signed a contract with UFO Records. She released four albums but did not have a good market response. This made her want to give up her career as a singer, which is also the reason why she turned to the hosting industry halfway.
Fortunately, Tao Jingying did not give up her career as a singer in the end. In 1999, she jumped to Fenghua Records and reversed her momentum as a singer with the album "I Change". Among them, "Leave Me" created by Yuan Weiren for her became a best-selling golden song, and Tao Jingying also became a singer with sales of 400,000 yuan. The following year, "Love Missing" released, won another game, and "Too Worried" also became a hit. These two years have been Tao Jingying's highlight moments as a singer, and it is also the key to giving her the courage to stand at the small dome to hold a concert. After all, she is also a singer with a representative work. Tao Jingying also had experience in holding concerts before holding this Taipei Dome concert, but she did not hold large performances before, such as in Nangang 101, and in 2018 at the Taipei International Convention Center. After all, her biggest dream is to be able to enter Taipei Dome. Her debut for 30 years has become an opportunity. Although she has made many twists and turns, she has achieved this wish.
Tao Jingying's concert was quite special in design. At the beginning, she did not appear on the stage, but asked her 16-year-old daughter, Edward to the stage as a warm-up guest. The appearance of the sing really brought great surprises to the audience. Although the singing on the stage was a little timid, she was in good condition. She played and sang herself on her guitar, brought her own songs, and then sang the works of foreign musicians. Obviously, Tao Jingying's arrangement has ulterior motives. First, it is to introduce her daughter as a musician, and second, it is to arrange for her daughter to warm up before the opening, so that her daughter does not have to bear too much pressure and allows her to play freely. Although the typhoon is still a newcomer, the typhoon is still quite stable. It seems that there is no training for it in normal times.
In addition to having a daughter as a hot guest, Tao Jingying's most special concert in the plot design of this concert is the cooperation with different talents. The so-called cooperation with different talents means that she sang the works of many male creators from different eras, including songs by Jay Chou, Fang Datong, Yuan Weiren, Zhou Xingzhe and Zhang Yusheng. When singing the song "It's Love" written by Fang Datong, his daughter, Chen Qi, took the stage with a guitar on her back. The mother and daughter worked together, and the picture was warm.
In addition, Tao Jingying's singing of Zhang Yusheng's old work "I look forward to it" is also the highlight. Tao Jingying said that when Zhang Yusheng was born, the Taipei Dome had not been built yet, so Zhang Yusheng could not sing into the Dome. This is a pity. So she thought about bringing Zhang Yusheng's voice into the Dome, so this scene was collaborated - Zhang Yusheng's original voice appeared in the Dome, and the two of them completed the song from a distance. Tao Jingying burst into tears in emotion, and the audience was moved by it.
In addition to cooperating with male creators, there are also female creators appearing as guests in the performance lineup. Tao Jingying swiped the favor card and invited Xu Zhepei, Huang Yunling and Wei Ruxuan to the concert. The four women talked about everything, talked about life, talked about music, and sang two songs "Love" and "Women's Thoughts". After that, Huang Yunling sang her own work "Blue Beer Sea", Xu Zhepei sang "Balloons", and Wei Ruxuan sang "You, You". In fact, in addition to the guests on the stage, there were many celebrities from the stage watching the performance, including Su Huilun, Ariel Lin, Xu Jiaying, Lan Xinmei and Dai Ailing, which made the concert stand out.
In summary, this performance did not have too many gorgeous designs, and Tao Jingying's performance costumes were only four sets, not gorgeous at all, and there were no special stage lighting. In addition, guests appeared quite frequently. In the second half of the performance, her husband Li Liren was invited to play and became a guitarist. At the end of the concert, the whole family simply appeared together. Even his 13-year-old son also went on stage to serve as a drummer. The family formed a band and sang "Love Missing", so the concert was lively, with family and friendship, which was really a portrayal of life.
