TAOLU MUSIC
At the end of 1990, the Pacific Ocean is full of warm and humid air, and there is no lavender air in Taipei.
36-year-old Luo Dayou, with the appearance of a beauty in his mind, released a song that is warmer than the sun. The song
is "Love Song 1990".
Maybe tomorrow, when the sun sets and the Tired Bird has returned, you will have embarked on the old way back. It is rare in life to find a partner you know each other again, and it is hard to give up the blue white cloud sky in life. At that time, apart from the towering Taipei 101 building, the city where the soul and body of the "music youth" Luo Dayou were housed, what could not be washed away was the innocence of the old days.
An old man selling vanilla on the street, a teenager playing a guitar on the grass, a taxi driver whistling on the road... As far as I can see, there is a slow, leisurely view of Vientiane.
Ten years ago, the melodious harmonica "Love Song 1980" announced the magnificent debut of "Luo Dayou in the 1980s". At that time, Li Zongsheng's school folk song "Acoustic Guitar" band was still toddlers. Ten years later, "Love Song 1990", which "knows my worries", witnessed the arrival of an era of alternating new and old. Since then, Luo Dayou's classic playlist "sealed".
In the first morning of the 1990s, the Chinese music scene was full of rain and everything grew.
At that time, Taiwan’s popular music, in addition to the folk song style represented by Teresa Teng and Fei Yuqing, and the spirit of "singing the way" represented by Luo Dayou, took an unprecedented new path and ushered in an unprecedented ten year.
On the other side of Hong Kong, there are also the "Four Kings"
. If you can compare men to wine, then you have the following conclusion:
Zhou Huajian is the champagne of spring, refreshing. Wang Jie is the ice beer of the summer solstice, bitter but sweet. Qi Qin is Lafite of Autumn Night, gentle and delicate. Tong Ange is the Dukang of Dongyue, with profound vicissitudes.Back then, they were the kings of the Taiwanese music scene.
Now, they are the feelings of countless fans.
In 1990, Zhou Huajian created "Kiss My Baby". The "baby" in the lyrics of
"Kiss my baby, I want to cross the mountains" is Zhou Huajian's eldest son Zhou Houan.
In 1989, after his wife became pregnant, Zhou Huajian decided to write a song for the child who was about to be born, but he had no idea.
Until the birth of the child, experiencing the joy of being a new father and the hardships along the way, this song was finally completed in one go.
▲ The song of Zhou Huajian and his eldest son Zhou Houan
Zhou Huajian, the main focus is sunshine and warmth.
"Let Me Happy and Worry" sings love for women. "Flower Heart" sings the youth in the lapse of time. "The Sutra of Difficulties" sings a thorough understanding of life. "Friends" sings the persistence of friendship.Nowadays, fans respect Zhou Huajian and call him "Big Brother Huajian", which is earned by Zhou Huajian himself.
We can't hear the negativity in his songs, and they are always full of urging power.
Wang Jie is a born singer.
In terms of the number of songs and spiritual breadth, Wang Jie surpasses any singer in Taiwan.
As early as the 1980s, Wang Jie had already become famous. He sang "A Game, A Dream", the MV heroine is the yet-to-be-known Maggie Cheung.
walked out of Hong Kong, and then returned to Hong Kong for a concert. The posters of the video store were all given to him.
Wang Jie's song is low-key with a kind of magic. This kind of magic comes from hisThe exploration of real life is again expressed with idealism.
"Whether I Really Have Nothing" sang the hesitation of young people in that period. They once thought that they were the proud son of heaven. When they stepped into the society, they discovered that love and bread are not so easy to have.
Wang Jie is a singer with great sentiments. He initiated and established his own music company, dedicated to building Chinese music to a world-class level comparable to Europe and the United States.
If you are poor, you can take care of yourself, and if you reach you, you can help the world. This is not something that every Heavenly King singer can do.
Wang Jie's many songs do not deliberately pursue how graceful the melody is, but win with artistic conception.
Cantonese song "Who knows the heart of the prodigal son", I don't think it is so good at first hearing it, savor carefully, every note is a prodigal's pursuit of life.
After Wang Jie, there is no longer a "prodigal son" in the Chinese music world.
said that it is close to paranoia to grasp the artistic conception, and it must be Qi Qin.
From "The Outside World" to "Don't Let My Tears Stay with Me Overnight", from "Every Night" to "The Past Follows the Wind", Qi Qin has been working hard to bring the audience into his joy, anger, and sorrow.
He once had a hard-hearted relationship with Wang Zuxian, but finally walked back to the original path, which may be fate.
As early as 1985, Qi Qin used a song "Wolf in the North" to show his life.
"I am a wolf from the north."wolf is the loneliest hunter. Qi Qin is also the most romantic tramp.
"The Original Me" is the "biggest lie". No one can step into the same river, let alone people who have experienced love.
This kind of comfort is very warm, "After laughter, the price is indifference." In the face of this cruelty, what reason is there not to be better?
"Relentless Rain, Relentless You" sings gently, reminiscent of ancient poets always seeing things and thinking people.
The mood when you lose love is like a rainy day, but you still have to stay calm, remember the past and think about the future.
Compared with other singers, Tong Ange seems to be far away from us.
Indeed, when he was hottest, it was from the late 1980s to the early 1990s.
As early as 1977, Tong Ange followed the example of European and American campus bands and initiated the establishment of the "Travelers Trio".
At that time, Tong Ange's stage was small amateur performances.
After more than ten years, Tong Ange has been self-precipitating, only waiting for the moment of the outbreak.
Finally, "Actually You Don't Understand My Heart" and "Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow" released in 1989 can be so popular. Tong Ange also became a big brother in the music world with a blockbuster.
Entering 1990, Tong Ange’s exotic "Girls of Yelia" matched his unique singing voice, which is not an exaggeration.
Tong Ange's deep voice, singing everything is like a vicissitudes of man reciting a long poem.
Whenever the soothing music of "Keep the Roots" and "Unforgettable" sounded, Tong Ange's appearance of singing with love will appear in front of him.
People who like Tong Ange like his scholarly appearance, his prince temperament, and his pursuit between the "little self" and the "big self".
A dream comes and goes
people who listen to songs long for love, and people who sing praise love.
has not experienced the unforgettable, unforgettable love, it is difficult to comprehend the endless changes of love, and it is difficult for music to have vitality.
In 1989, popular singers Anita Mui and Priscilla Chan respectively launched "Song of the Sunset" and "Song of Thousand Thousands of Que". The two songs coincidentally selected the composition of Yasuji Ma Shiye, making the competition for "Cantonese Queen" unprecedentedly fierce.
▲ Anita Mui and Priscilla Chan
In 1990, in the background of the "Thousand Evenings Controversy", Lin Yilian left the Hong Kong music scene and went to Taiwan alone.
She signed to Rolling Stone Records and released "Fall in Love with a Person Who Doesn't Go Home", which brought different thoughts on love between men and women in marriage, which was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. The song
also helped the fledgling Lin Yilian win applause.
At that time, Li Zongsheng was already the gold medal creator of Rolling Stone Records. With his hands, Chen Shuhua's "Awakening Time", Zhao Chuan's "I am a Little Bird", and Jin Zhijuan's "Across the Ocean to See You" have all become supreme golden songs later.
In 1992, Li Zongsheng created "When Love Is a Past" and sang a duet with Lin Yilian for the first time. The name of the song became a truth, and the love between the two eventually became "the past" many years later.
Li Zongsheng's talents convinced Lin Yilian. The years when the two first met were also the most glorious period of Li Zongsheng.
"The Price of Love" talks about helplessness and relief on the road to growth. "Comprehension" is about pretending to be strong for those who are hurt by love. "Don't be afraid of me sad" is about the self-esteem of infatuated men.These "big vulgar works" use the simplest lyrics and music to express the most touching thoughts of ordinary people. Except for Li Zongsheng, it is difficult for ordinary people to get the truth, until they have heard it.
Li Zongsheng in his youth, poor school studies but crazy in love with music, which made his strong father very uncomfortable.
On the one hand, he was unwilling to help in the gas store opened by his father, and on the other side he never put down his beloved guitar. This entanglement of
was not cleared up until the death of his father, and became the new song written in 2018.
This initial pain and final regret belonged to Li Zongsheng, the "person of temperament".
Returning to the intersection with Lin Yilian, Li Zongsheng, who has been working hard in the music world for many years, realized that "the taste in the world is joyful" and formed a simple and sincere creative style.
At that time, Lin Yilian's thin body burst into a stunning sound that made him fall, and she knew that this was a woman born for music and love.
Only the best song is worthy of the best "her".
So there is "Don't Care Who I Am". This song sang Lin Yilian herself into love.
But, between love and reality, there are thousands of miles away.
Lin Yilian, who wanted to escape, went to Canada. Li Zongsheng stood in the cold and lonely night with a door that couldn't be knocked in front of him. The mixed feelings became a song "Blowed by the Cold Wind for You and Me".
There is a kind of love, I can't cry, but I cry. This song can bring everyone who listens to the song into the wind.
I hope I will let go of the past, forget how beautiful the past is, and do not hope that the fate will end but still be compassionate, although I once thought so.Later, they lived together for many years, but in the end they could only cherish each other.
"Don't mention the past, love is a problem."
The love between Li Zongsheng and Lin Yilian remains in the song of the year.
If life can be an endlessly looping tape, side A sings "once" and side B sings "forever".
Zhang Yu and Shijiro sing the B side of life.
once had "good people" envy, jealous, and hate: "Zhang Yu is good, only Shiji Lang knows." When
was a teenager, Zhang Yu was also called "Zhang Boxiang" and Shiyi Lang was also called "Xiao Huiwen." One is a "bad ruffian" and the other is a "talented woman", but love happens silently.
▲Zhang Yu and Shishi Lang
In 1990, Zhang Yu followed Li Zongsheng to study composition after graduating from university, and he ambitiously borrowed money to purchase music equipment to practice music arrangement, but he was unknown.
The pressure of life brought him back to reality and found a well-regulated company to work. Soon after he lost his job, he started singing in the restaurant again.
Xiao Huiwen is a beautiful woman.
When Zhang Yu was struggling to sing in Taichung restaurants, Shichi Lang realized that Taipei was the big stage. Two in loveIn addition, I found a common utopia in my career. It took less than two years for
to develop in Taipei, and Zhang Yu finally got his chance.
In 1993, Zhang Yu released the album "Good Intentions", which immediately caused a sensation. The title song of the same name is Shishiro's proud work.
Shichiro accurately sensed the lack of status as a "sorrowful man" in the Taiwanese music scene in the 1990s, and explored Zhang Yu's unique voice to the utmost extent.
People who have heard "very Zhang Yu" songs like "A Word is Hard to Say", "The Rain Keeps Down", and "The Moment Caused by the Moon" may not have imagined that their author is a tender woman.
The name "Eleven Lang" was taken by Zhang Yu. Because he likes Gu Long's novel "Xiao Shishi Lang" very much, and his wife also happens to be surnamed Xiao.
Although Shiji Lang is a rare talented woman, she has written Peng Ling's "Prisoner Bird" and Zhang Huimei's "Early." But in front of Zhang Yu, her first attribute is always "wife".
In 1999, Shishi Lang wrote the lyrics for Zhang Yu's "For You". The lyrics were full of happiness. Turning over the last page of the young couple in the 1990s, they have come all the way to today.
must be a special fate to become a family along the way. How much he loves you, how much you pay him back, and find the possibility of happiness.Some people have deep and superficial relationships, and some people are in love with each other. The two different loves of "Lin Li" and "Zhang Xiao" are worthy of recollection.
was also in that era. Wu Qixian once sang a song "A Dream Comes and Goes". This love song for the occasion is telling people:
Life is like a song, cherish the people in front of you.
has a kind of voice, with a sense of age.
has some good songs, naturally with a sense of dislocation, or it may seem like a world away, or it seems to be in front of you, it is difficult to tell exactly when and what month of birth.
Many singers in the Taiwanese music scene and their classic songs were accurately fixed in the 1990s.
Since 1986, Taiwan has set off the "Qiong Yao fever". Many of Qiong Yao's works have been adapted into TV dramas, which has made actresses such as Liu Xuehua and Yu Xiaofan popular.
▲ Gao Shengmei
Among the many "yao girls", the most special one is Gao Shengmei.
She has never played a role, but with her singing, she has become the label of Qiong Yao Opera.
In 1989, Gao Shengmei became popular because of "Colorful Clouds with Seagulls", and has since forged an indissoluble bond with Qiong Yao drama.
Entering the 1990s, Gao Shengmei sang "Green Grass by the River" is her masterpiece of music in many Qiong Yao dramas.
Gao Shengmei's songs have a strong folk song flavor, coupled with sweet and delicate sound, very recognizable, and the cover technique is also first-class.
"Crying Sand" made her nominated for the Taiwan Golden Melody Awards, and eventually defeated Xu Jingchun, known as the "top-tier Taiwanese pop music," by one vote.
In the hottest years of Gao Shengmei, another female singer was loved by young people with her lovely face and ethereal singing voice. She has released many albums, and they sell well.
She is Meng Tingwei.
Those who have listened to Meng Tingwei's songs will understand what is called "the age of innocence".
Back then, when people heard "The shameless rose quietly opens" and "Whose tears are flying" played in the video store on the street, they would unconsciously stop and imagine what kind of girl they were singing.
At the CCTV Spring Festival Gala in 1995, Meng Tingwei appeared in a white dress and flew from Taipei to bring the live version of "A Cloud Made of Rain in the Wind" to millions of viewers in the Mainland who loved her.
With water-like eyes, waterfall-like hair, and neighboring sister’s voice, Meng Tingwei himself is a cloud made of rain.
Meng Tingwei, people are like their names, and people are like their songs.
She originally had a decent name for Zhou Zheng called "Chen Xiumei", but after her debut, she changed it to "Meng Tingwei", which was immediately full of poetry.
"Jianjia is pale, and white dew is frost."Meng Tingwei is like a lotusThe long standing white reed flowers sway in the autumn frost. Outside of the feasting and feasting, the beauty is a single plant.
In 1991, "Look at the Face of the Moon" won Meng Tingwei the title of "Princess of the Moon", and soon became the goddess in the hearts of fans.
There are all kinds of tenderness in the world, and there is only one moon.
Meng Tingwei's sweetness, the Taiwanese music scene seems to lack a desolate female voice to be perfect.
Li Yijun, a contemporary of Meng Tingwei, appeared just right.
If Meng Tingwei melted the heart of a man, Li Yijun would awaken the dream of a woman.
Mentioning Li Yijun, it seems that the ending song "Rain Butterfly" of "Huan Zhu Ge Ge" that was popular on both sides of the strait at that time was the most praised.
"Rainbow Butterfly" interprets the greatest feature of Li Yijun's singing skills. The bass and treble seem to be "two different women struggling", the bass is painful, and the treble is extremely proud.
▲ Li Yijun
This "Forever Forever" in the later TV series "The Wind and Cloud" is also unobstructed.
As early as 1987, the song "Ping Ju", which was covered countless times, met with the audience for the first time. The singer was Li Yijun.
Later, Li Yijun was no longer confined to folk songs.
In 1991, a song "Tianjun" enriched her musical thickness.
"There is a girl named Wanjun and another girl named Wanjun..." has become a classic for people to hum.Although, except for a few classic songs, Li Yijun mostly covers other people's works, but without exception, he sang his own taste.
The first few years of the nineties were the hottest seasons of "old love songs".
Qiu Haizheng's "Those Who Love Me and Those I Love", "I love you very much in tears", Pan Meichen's "I Want to Have a Home", and Chen Mingzhen's "I Love You My Way" are all excellent works.
After halfway through the nineties, "Yun-style singing" held the baton of the love song.
In 1996, Xu Ruyun took the position of "popular song queen" overnight with the two best-selling albums "Sea of Tears" and "If the Cloud Knows".
▲ Xu Ruyun
Li Zongsheng once commented:
"Yun-style singing is a kind of hot, not just any girl can learn it."Xu Ruyun, who was born in a music family, was taken by a good friend after she graduated from Guoguang Art School. Interview of the music giant "Shanghua Records".
She sang the three songs "Cold War", "Comprehension" and "Blowed by the Cold Wind for You and Me" and completely conquered the judges.
sorrow with the bright of a little woman, will not easily be crushed by the setbacks in love, it seems to be a helpless sigh, but it actually gives people strength.
Listen to Xu Ruyun, give herself a chance to cry in the night, and wake up again in the sun.
This is the charm of Xu Ruyun's singing. The performance of "One-Man Show" is the best, as if weeping like a complaint, she knows how warm and cold she is.
As Xu Ruyun's "dream engineer" and music talent Ji Zhongping, his works have completely got rid of the shadow of traditional Taiwanese folk songs, adding more relaxed and lyrical European and American elements.
Xu Ruyun's popularity paved the way for the "actress shines" in Taiwanese singers at the end of the century.
The male voice kissed by God
In the 1990s, compared with Hong Kong, Taiwan's biggest advantage of popular music is compatibility and incorporation.
It is hard to imagine that if Zhang Yusheng was born in Hong Kong, he would be so popular as in reality. In the traditional aesthetics of
, a man’s voice should be as masculine as Lin Zixiang and Zhang Xueyou.
Zhang Yusheng made people hear a different male voice, bright and crisp, like a glass refracting sunlight falling on the ground.
is not an exaggeration to say that the musical attainments of Duplicity have surpassed the times, and it can still be at the forefront of popularity today. This song also best reflects Zhang Yusheng’s sense of musicit is good.
Zhang Yusheng was in Taiwan, just as Leslie Cheung was in Hong Kong, they are all pure men.
Zhang Yusheng’s "The Sea" sang, every word and every sentence is sonorous and powerful. What makes Zhang Yusheng sing so emotional?
It took a long time for the world to learn that it was his sister who had fallen into the water many years ago.
It's great to be a fish. Because the fish's memory is only seven seconds. No one laughed because the tears of the fish filled the sea.
"The Fish Swimming All Day" is Zhang Yu's work after he became a famous name. It sings about his unfavorable and unchanging original intentions on the road of music.
In the late autumn of 1997, Zhang Yusheng drove on his way back to his residence in Tamsui late at night. He was hit hard by an accident, which shocked the Chinese music scene.
23 days later, the high-pitched prince cruising in the ocean of music has left the world he loves forever, leaving only a good song for fans to remember that he had been there.
Compared with Zhang Yusheng's general interpretation of music, another tenor has a wider audience.
Zhang Xinzhe, because of the wrong and wrong succession of Li Zongsheng's "Love Like Tide", found his glorious future as the "Prince of Love Song".
Before that, Zhang Xinzhe was still pouring tea and water in the office building of Rolling Stone Records. This kind of role is called "assistant" in the industry.
Li Zongsheng, who is just the "big brother", happened to write a very clichéd lyrics. The work took shape, but he couldn't find a suitable singer for a while.
Li Zongsheng accidentally heard Zhang Xinzhe's unique voice, but he was also hesitating how far this voice could go.
Don’t do it, don’t stop. Li Zongsheng simply gave this song "Love Like Tide" to Zhang Xinzhe to sing. What he fancyed was Zhang Xinzhe's love for music, but he lacked a chance to become famous.
Facts have proved that even if the "vulgar" song is given to the right person, it will become a "love song".
In the Taiwanese music scene, which only recognizes "good voices", the trend caused by "Love Is Like Tide" is unstoppable, and Zhang Xinzhe became famous overnight.
After that, Zhang Xinzhe became more confident in his voice.
Knowing that he is good at singing the humble love of little men, he took him to the extreme.
In 1995, Zhang Xinzhe sang "Overfire".
I don't love it anymore, it is better to let go, and for the rest of my life, I can still remember.
In 1999, Zhang Xinzhe sang "Love Is Only One Word".
Love is simple to say but not easy to do. Over the hills and ridges, without looking at the scenery, you are all in your eyes. These songs of
affectionately embellish the sea of stars in the Chinese music scene.
Zhang Xinzhe’s lyrical slow song will never go out of style. It is the weakest and strongest cry in human nature. Who did not grow up in the struggle of love?
For the use of true and false sounds, we still have to talk about Lin Zhixuan.
Some people say that Lin Zhixuan, Tsai Chin, and Qi Yu are Taiwan’s "three voices" and their strength is beyond doubt.
Although Lin Zhixuan is really well known to mainland audiences because of the later "Single Love Songs", he surprised Taiwan with his excellent voice in the 1990s.
In 1989, Lin Zhixuan, who was still studying at the university, joined the school chorus and was well-known. Li Ji from the guitar troupe next door to
is also a rare talent. The two cherished each other and finally formed the music duo "Youke Li Lin" to start cooperation.
In 1991, "Acknowledgement" sung by "Youke Li Lin", like a typhoon, swept through Taiwan, Southeast Asia and other regions.
▲Youke Lilin's combination
is named after the homonym of the Hawaiian guitar "Ukulele". The two have gone through the fresh air of urban folk songs. After a smash hit, they went on their own in 1996.
In 1998, Lin Zhixuan released "Mona Lisa's Tears". The gentleman feeling of British music combined with the natural bel canto, left a distinctive brand of personality for Lin Zhixuan. z2One year later, "Single Love Song" came out, and overnight, the streets and alleys began to play this heroic "single theme" song.
People can't help asking: "Why would anyone sing like this? It's too explosive."
In fact, there are many good voices in the Taiwan music scene.
In 1996, Zhou Chuanxiong, who was also called "Xiaogang" at the time, launched "My Heart Is Too Much Chaos".
In 1997, Xiong Tianping launched "A Match Paradise" and "Snow Migratory Birds".
These sounds are the only one in the Chinese music scene.
Long live youth
At the beginning of 1990, the Little Tigers released their third album "Red Dragonfly", heralding an unprecedented youth storm that continued into the 1990s.
At that time, the Little Tigers had accumulated an unprecedented surge in popularity. The boys imitated them singing and the girls put up their posters all over the bedroom.
Little Tigers became famous two years ago.
In 1988, three lovely girls appeared in a show called "Youth Rivalry", who served as hot spots, named "Kitten Team".
▲ Kitten team
In order to balance the audience, the program team quickly realized the need to incorporate male elements. Thus, after a vigorous audition, the "little tiger team" composed of three boys was born.
All three are still in school. The 18-year-old "Thunderbolt Tiger" Wu Qilong is a sports student, the 17-year-old Xiaoshuaihu Chen Zhipeng is an "art student", and the "good tiger" Su Youpeng is only 15 years old, who is taking cultural courses step by step.
"inadvertently inserted the willow" this time, and inserted a forest.
The youth of publicity finally has a spokesperson, this is a historic moment.
Their works not only focus on propositions such as love, friendship, growth, etc., but also have charity songs.
In 1991, the charity album "Love" came out. In the MV of the song "Love", the Tigers pays attention to the fate of deaf-mute children in sign language. This song has also become a classic among the Tigers classics. The other song "Butterfly Fly" in the album
uses childlike memories to resolve the pain of growing up and aroused strong resonance between adolescent men and women.
A year later, Chen Zhipeng left the team and the Little Tigers were temporarily disbanded.
solo Wu Qilong and Su Youpeng have released new albums. They are called "Four Little Kings" together with Takeshi Kaneshiro and Lin Zhiying, and their popularity continues to soar.
Nicky Wu sang a song to bid farewell to Chen Zhipeng in the album "The Boy Who Chased the Wind", which is "I wish you a good journey".
In 1993, after Chen Zhipeng returned, the trio once again joined forces and released several albums such as "The Stars Are Still Bright", "The Feeling of Happiness Is Always the Same", and "Mediocre People".
These albums have made fans who are used to the voice of the Little Tigers noisy for a long time.
Life is like a crude meal, chewing in the mouth. Who doesn't want to be happy to be old, the vast sea of people is insignificant, where the true feelings are found, and the years are not light.This is the lyrics of "Mediocre", less passionate, more rational.
In 1997, the song of the Little Tigers after ten years of singing and dancing ended.
In that era, girls also had their own musical sustenance, such as Zhang Huimei.
In 1996, 24-year-old Zhang Huimei signed Fenghua Records. In the same year, with the assistance of mentor Zhang Yusheng, the first album "Sisters" was released, breaking Taiwan's annual record sales record.
The freedom of girls she preached is reminiscent of the newcomer Anita Mui in Hong Kong more than ten years ago.
Amei also collaborated with Zhang Yusheng on "The One I Loved the Most Hurts Me the Deepest", which is a great encouragement and also showed her potential in singing lyrical songs.
▲ Zhang Huimei and Zhang Yusheng
In 1997, the energetic "Bad Boy" was another success.
This native Taiwanese girl has a healthyHis complexion, bright eyes, and the smell of mountains and wilds all over him.
There has never been such a hot singing voice in Taiwan and even in the Chinese music world.
Although, after Zhang Huimei chose to become the ever-changing diva, songs such as "Listening to the Sea", "Relief", "Can I Hold You" and other songs come out of the mouth of a sentimental woman.
However, what Amei first brought us was the burning youth.
Please remember that she is the first female singer to have sold over one million her first album in the Taiwanese music scene. She is also the only singer who has performed 8 consecutive shows at the Taipei Arena.
Just in 1996, when Zhang Huimei became so popular, another female singer also transformed gorgeously, she was Su Huilun.
In 1994, after Su Huilun joined the Rolling Stones, she has not found her own position, and her career development is not popular.
▲Su Huilun
Two years later, the "Transformation Trilogy" is tailor-made for Su Huilun's refreshing image.
listen to her song, the whole person will be happy.
"Duck", "Lemon Tree" and "Fool" are Su Huilun's most representative songs, which have been sung to this day.
In "Guess the Masked Singer", Su Huilun's singing is intoxicating. Wu Qixian said: "There are two voices in the music world, which can be used to test the sound system at home, one is Cai Qin and the other is Su Huilun."
▲ The Su Huilun
in "Masked" was also in 1996, naive. Fan Xiaoxuan is only 19 years old. She sang the Chinese theme songs of "Chibi Maruko" and "Doraemon" and entered the fans' vision.
Her voice "whit", just right.
Fan Xiaoxuan's "Girlish Style" fascinates uncles and aunts who are used to the love of men and women. She hit the iron while it was hot, and released refreshing brainwashing songs such as "I Love Bathing" and "Health Songs".
later Fan Xiaoxuan finally grew up, so there was a sudden change in style of "Snowman" and "I Want Us Together".
But when I see that cute face, I will always think of my little sister who is acting like a baby.
Actually think about it, Fan Xiaoxuan and Jay Chou are basically the same age, two years apart, but because of their early debut, it feels like a generation away.
If Fan Xiaoxuan is a little witch dancing a fairy wand, then Xu Huaiyu is Cinderella wearing crystal shoes.
Xu Huaiyu has a hard life at home. She loves to sing but moves forward with heavy burdens. Working part-time is the norm in life.
A chance to sing Lin Yilian's "Don't Care Who I Am" while washing clothes was discovered by the famous musician Weng Xiaoliang, and he started his career as a singer.
▲ Xu Huaiyu
"I'm a Girl" and "Treading Waves" and other popular songs have brought her to the top of her career, but she never seems to get rid of the economic embarrassment.
"Civilian Queen" is first of all a civilian.
has great ups and downs, things are impermanent, this is part of life.
, when I heard that song again:
don’t look at me like this, my face will turn into a red apple, don’t haunt me like a koala, I don’t want to be friends with you yet.
Cinderella has been living in fairy tales.
Little-eyed boys
Ren Xianqi, Wu Bai , Zhao Chuan and other singers have one thing in common, that is, they have a pair of small eyes with gods.
They are all good hands on life.
Zhao Chuan made his debut early and became famous in 1988 with "I'm Ugly, But I'm Very Gentle" and "I Finally Lost You".
His appearance made people realize that appearance is not necessarily proportional to singing.
entered 1990, a song "I am a little bird" becameThe songs that are widely sung in Taiwan and the mainland, the simple lyrics, and the sincere singing are the reasons for the success of this song.
Four years later, Zhao Chuan sang "How Do I Say Love" again. He has completely stepped out of other people's criticism of his appearance and boldly sang his true inner voice.
In 1990, Wu Bai was still in the underground music circle.
Regarding the origin of his name, there is a saying:
Wu Bai learns from the sketches and is excellent, and the five courses are often 100 points, so the family often uses "500" as the matter. Over time, this name was fixed and became his lucky number.
