We all know that the music industry takes Grammy awards as the most. Winning Grammys is basically a reflection of the super-class singers at the time. Although Chinese singers have never won Grammy awards, of course there are various reasons. In fact, we also have our own highest award in music, in Hong Kong, that is the Golden Needle Award .
The Golden Needle Award (The Golden Needle Award) is a lifetime achievement award selected by the Top Ten Chinese Golden Songs organized by Radio Hong Kong to recognize the outstanding achievements and contributions of individual music professionals in the field of Hong Kong pop music. The
Golden Needle Award is not limited to the field of popular music, including drama, classical music and folk music are also included in the selection. The award was awarded for the first time in 1981, but there is no fixed annual award. It will only be awarded at the Top Ten Chinese Golden Melody Awards Ceremony when there are enough qualified artists to appear. The Golden Needle Award is the lifetime achievement award of the top ten Chinese golden songs in Hong Kong. It also has a wide range of influence in the Hong Kong music scene and its authority is highly respected.

Here I want to add, the 16th session held by Radio Hong Kong in 1993 At the top ten Chinese golden song awards ceremony, awarded the "Endless Talisman Memorial Award" to Chen Baiqiang, and on January 21, 1994, it was awarded to Huang Jiaju . It can be regarded as a tribute to these two great singers.
To be honest, for some of the people who won the Golden Needle Award above, the editor is really not very familiar, especially some behind-the-scenes lyrics writers and producers. The above is the highest award in Hong Kong. Similarly, there is also a Grammy-like annual election in Taiwan, called the Golden Melody Award .
Taiwan Golden Melody Awards (Golden Melody Awards) is the largest and most influential music award in the Chinese music scene. It has been held since 1990, and each award ceremony is held around May and June each year. The
Golden Melody Award is a competition award provided by Taiwan for outstanding Chinese singers and outstanding workers to promote the cause of Chinese music. It has rewarded many outstanding Chinese singers and outstanding musicians, and has become the most lofty indicator of honor in the Chinese singing world. Chinese music is of great help and encouragement. The Taiwan Golden Melody Award, the Taiwan TV Golden Bell Award and the Taiwan Film Golden Horse Award are also called Taiwan’s three annual awards.
Whether it is the Golden Needle Award or the Golden Melody Award, it is a reward for the singer’s singing career. Just like the awards in all walks of life, the purpose is to allow everyone to be rewarded for their hard work. Of course, the most important thing is its meaning. The meaning of the song is that it is the regulator of our life and mood, and also the other side of our soul, the home of the spirit. May there be more and better songs for us to appreciate, and at the same time Thank you so many people who have contributed to the music industry.
