Ms. Dong’s note: Jay Chou As the most representative phenomenal singer in the Chinese music scene after the new century, he once publicly stated: I hope my music can become a classic, just like Teresa Teng and Luo Dayou !
In people's impression, Chinese queen Teresa Teng and music godfather Luo Dayou are two completely different Chinese musicians. Teresa Teng's sweet singing voice is like the spring breeze blowing on his face, while Luo Dayou set off a black storm that cleanses the music industry. The two music giants with such different styles have sparks and regrets in music cooperation, which makes people sigh that good fortune is not with me.
1995 On April 30, 1995, Teresa Teng, a Chinese queen who lives in Chiang Mai, Thailand, had a last call with her younger brother and agent Deng Changxi. Teresa Teng said on the phone that she wanted to set out again and ambitiously plan her future career blueprint. First, she must put the sequel to " Light Love " on the agenda and hand it over to Luo Dayou as the producer and release by Polykin Records.
Teren Teng's "Dayan Love" released in the 1980s has always been called a "dream album". Because the songs on the entire album are composed and sung according to the famous Song lyrics, the production team includes dozens of Hong Kong lyrics, including Zuo Hongyuan , Weng Qingxi , Liu Jiachang , Liang Hongzhi , Huang Zhan, Lu Dongni and other dozens of Hong Kong lyrics and music masters. Each lyrics is a literary masterpiece that has been tested by history, and each song is a classic collaboration spanning thousands of years!
Teresa Teng is thinking about it and is determined to write a sequel to "Silent Love". The title is already called "Spring Dreams and Autumn Clouds". Teresa Teng plans to use Tang poetry, Song lyrics and Yuan songs to make songs, and once again invite Zuo Hongyuan, Weng Qingxi and others to come out and hand it over to Luo Dayou to control the album to produce.
Because Luo Dayou was the best music producer of that era, there were countless classics he created for female singers, such as: Su Rui "The Moonlight of ", Zhang Ai Jia "The Story of Time", Pan Yueyun "The Wild Lilies Also Have Spring", Anita Mui "It Seems like an Old Friend Comes", Yuan Fengying "If Heaven Is Love", Chen Shuhua "Rolling Red Dust" and other excellent works are all written by the godfather. Of course, there is also the " Proverbs of Love " written for Teresa Teng.
1982, Luo Dayou's first creative album "Zhihuzheye" was born. He used uncompromising music techniques to subvert traditional campus folk songs and cleans up the entire Chinese music scene. The black storm caused by Luo Dayou has its own influence on Chinese music and has continued to this day. With this, Luo Dayou attracted the attention of Teresa Teng and the record company.
Teng's development in Japan in the 1970s, the record company released 8 island love song series albums for Teresa Teng at a rate of one per year. Most of the tracks in the album were covered by Japanese pop songs, with Chinese lyrics, and some Chinese works and Western pop music, which are the most representative styles of Teresa Teng's singing career.
Teren Teng's island love song series can be regarded as a musical elite collection of islands in Hong Kong, Taiwan and Japan, and has made a lot of contributions to the expansion of the overseas market of the queen Teresa Teng. Classic songs such as "Goodbye, My Love", " Love in the Village ", " Hong Kong Night ", " See the Smoke Again in the Cooking ", and "The Moon Represents My Heart" all stand out from the love song series of the island country.
Of course, it also contains "Proverbs of Love" created by Luo Dayou. In 1983, Teresa Teng invited Luo Dayou to sing through a record company. At that time, the godfather was preparing his second solo album "The Master of the Future", so he took out the song "Proverbs of Love" that best suited Teresa Teng's temperament and gave it to Teresa Teng for performance.
"The Master of the Future" also occupies an extremely important position in the Chinese music scene, but because the main theme of the album is to express depressed and desolate emotions, most of the songs are highly critical, experimental and social. For example, "Orphans of Asia", "Seventy-Two Changes of Phenomenon", "Blind Deafness", "Birth", "Scarecrow", etc., are not suitable for Teresa Teng. There are two more lyrical songs in the album
: "Little Sister" and "The Proverbs of Love", but the song "Little Sister" has a great relationship with Sylvia Chang, or we can understand it as a love letter written by Luo Dayou to Sylvia Chang. Friends who want to trace the origins of Luo Dayou and Zhang Aijia can read Ms. Dong’s previous column article

After "The Proverbs of Love" was handed over to Teresa Teng, they first used Luo Dayou's original song and found Japanese lyricist Inui Hayao and wrote it into the Japanese song "White Amaryllis", which was included in Teresa Teng's Japanese album "Traveler" published in June 1983. The Mandarin version of "The Proverbs of Love" was postponed in the following year, which was the 8th island love song series released in June 1984.
Before that, Luo Dayou had already released "The Master of the Future" in September 1983. Pan Yueyun, who is also a singer of Rolling Stone, also took advantage of his "work" to release the album "Silent Love" at the end of 1983, including "Proverbs of Love". Since then, there have been many covers of this song, but aside from the creator of Luo Dayou, the true first singer and the most influential version are Teresa Teng.
"Proverbs" is a word of "Proverbs" in the context of Chinese people. The Old Testament specially puts out a volume to talk about "Proverbs". In short, it is a philosopher full of extraordinary wisdom and ability, telling the truth of the world and life. And this song "Proverbs of Love" can be understood as Luo Dayou's wisdom and Zen strategy about love.
Sincerity and sorrow, youth and loneliness, life and years, the former is left to your lover, and the latter is left to yourself. In fact, love is something that no one knows. It is sad but not negative. Although it is heartbroken, it is an eternal melody. This is the proverb of love.
There are indeed many things to sigh for Luo Dayou and Teresa Teng. The single song "Proverbs of Love" is of course a classic, but it cannot make up for the regrets left to us by the inability to continue the strings of "Spring Dreams and Autumn Clouds". Fortunately, in the gaps between all history, a ray of light will always shine out from the dust, just like the two of them sang "Plum Blossoms" on the same stage that they were rare in a thousand years.
In October 1994, the "Double Ten Celebration Conference" held by all walks of life in Hong Kong to celebrate the success of the Xinhai Revolution. The queen and her godfather ushered in a historic cooperation on the same stage. This is also the only picture of the same frame of the two prides in the Chinese music scene, which is extremely precious.
The song sang by Teresa Teng and Luo Dayou on stage is "Plum Blossom", created by Taiwanese lyricists and music master Liu Jiachang. It symbolizes China with the indomitable spirit of plum blossoms and expresses patriotic feelings. The two sang on the stage of the Double Ten Celebration, which is also a tribute to the revolutionary martyrs who revitalize China.
"Plum Blossoms" was originally the theme song of the same name directed by Liu Jiachang in the 1970s. It also appeared as an interlude in the Hong Kong movie "The Rich Corps". Although the two movies are one of the most powerful and one of them, they tell the story of fighting against Japanese invasion and safeguarding national justice. The song was also adapted into a marche at the instruction of Jiang Weiguo, and was played as a Chinese Taipei delegation in the 1990 Beijing 11th Asian Games.
Through the same-stage opportunity at the Hong Kong Double Ten Celebration, two contemporary spiritual idols, Luo Dayou and Teresa Teng, agreed off the stage that they must find opportunities to cooperate in the future. This opportunity is mentioned earlier. Teresa Teng has been planning the "Spring Dream Autumn Clouds".
But unfortunately, "Spring Dreams and Autumn Clouds" only exists in Teresa Teng's plan during her lifetime, because on May 8, after a week after she spoke with her younger brother, Teresa Teng died of complications caused by bronchial asthma attacks and failed to rescue them. The queen of the song disappeared and died with the wind. She was 42 years old.
Teres Teng was obsessed with her and planned to cooperate with Luo Dayou. "Spring Dream Autumn Clouds" was finally declared a miscarriage with the death of the queen, which really caused a great loss in the Chinese music scene. During the call with Deng Changxi, Teresa Teng clearly mentioned that she had discussed with Luo Dayou three months ago, and had sorted out some lyrics herself, preparing to ask Luo Dayou to write the song, and received approval.
Luo Dayou, who is in Hong Kong, first received a telegram from Teresa Teng, saying that she had written a few poems and wanted to ask Luo Dayou to show it. Later, he called Luo Dayou and said that she had a new plan and invited Luo Dayou to be the producer.
After receiving the invitation, Luo Dayou was quite concerned and made an agreement with Teresa Teng that when she recovered and returned to Hong Kong, the two immediately began to promote the creation of new records. However, soon there was news that Teresa Teng had died. The cooperation that failed to achieve this time became Luo Dayou's eternal regret.
2000 Luo Dayou held a concert in Shanghai. The godfather, who has never covered other people's songs, unexpectedly sang Teresa Teng's famous song "The Moon Represents My Heart". Afterwards, the media asked about the original intention of singing this song, Luo Dayou replied that this was to express his respect for a singer who passed away.
