Did everyone watch the Mid-Autumn Festival Film and Music Gala in the Greater Bay Area? More than a number of Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan celebrities on the same stage, did not expect that two days have passed, the most "out of the circle" star is actually ~ Lin Zixiang!
Lin Zixiang sang "Dare to Love and Dare to Do" on the spot, which triggered a boiling scene and the Internet. Look, Jackie Chan has contributed seal applause!
Shu Qi, Hui Yinghong, Ren Dahua, etc. at the scene called for him one by one. Even if the camera turns quickly and has such a high and mushy picture quality, you can see their love for Lin Zixiang!
Netizens are even more jubilant, everyone did not expect that this Hong Kong singer, known as the "devil of the music world", is actually 73 years old this year, and can still be so comfortable on stage, "there is light in the eyes"!
For young pot friends, Lin Zixiang's name is indeed a bit ancient, but almost no one has not heard of Lin Zixiang's "Boys Should Be Self-Reliant"! This is the theme song of the movie "Huang Feihong 1: Top Gun", composed and lyrics by Huang Xia.
"Proud and proud of the waves, hot blood is better than red sun." As soon as this sentence is sung, the hot blood of the arrogant boy is already in front of him, how to listen to how to feel the blood boiling. Today's Lin Zixiang must have been a hot-blooded man back then.
Lin Zixiang's high voice and breath are absolute, and there is a saying that three of Hong Kong's "Four Heavenly Kings" are his apprentices. Among them, Jacky Cheung was very respectful in front of him, and did not dare to call himself a "god of song". Andy Lau began to sing, which was also discovered by Lin Zixiang.
Friends who love to watch TVB must have heard another song by Lin Zixiang, called "Minutes Need You". This song has been sung in many TVB TV series such as "Storm of Hearts" and "Moonlight on the Fifth Day of October", showing the scene of the male and female protagonists who have no guesses or the family is happy and harmonious.
The song was composed by Lin Zixiang himself. The style is completely different from the masculine tough guy of "Boys Be Self-Reliant", but it is warm and sweet, but it is not greasy at all. It is hard to imagine that Lin Zixiang can also create and control such songs.
Through these songs, we can basically see Lin Zixiang's status in the Hong Kong music scene. From the stars to the ordinary citizens, there is no song that he can't sing.
Although Lin Zixiang formed a band when he was a student, he did not debut early. In 1976, at the age of 29, he released his first English album "Lam", and later released many Cantonese albums. In 1980, with two songs, "In the Middle of the Water" and "Minutes Need You", he won two consecutive Golden Melody Awards at the 3rd Top Ten Chinese Golden Melody Awards Concert, becoming the big winner of the year.
Lin Zixiang's composition is also very experimental, and his famous song "Every Night" comes from two Chinese and Western pieces, one is the musical "Cat" by Andrew Lloyd Weber, and the other is Huang Ziwei's work of the same name composed by Bai Juyi's "Flowers instead of Flowers". Lin Zixiang put them together, and the effect was natural.
In the 1990s, he won the "Golden Needle Award, the highest honor in the Hong Kong music scene", which shows his status in the music scene. Therefore, when Lin Zixiang and his wife Ye Qianwen helped Li Keqin compete in "Singer" a few years ago, the excitement of Li Keqin and other singers on the scene can be understood, right? It's really the "Great Demon King" coming!
He has also made films, and in 1983, he participated in "Run to the Fury Sea" and was nominated for Best Actor at the 2nd Hong Kong Film Awards. He also collaborated with Wang Mingquan on TVB in TVB tv series such as "Not a Wrongdoer, No Gathering" and "Four Seasons of Love".
Film, television, song and three habitats Lin Zixiang have developed, but he has always been low-key, always silent, usually speaking softly, until the stage is full of aura, so some people call him "Song Yin".
In life, the airport photos that he is often photographed are so simple ↓
Carrying his own bag, the mask he wore seemed to be worn out of the hair, and there was no star security personnel around him, who was recognized at the airport and waved at passers-by.
It is said that he usually does not smoke, does not drink alcohol, rarely eats spicy things, and sleeps early and gets up early, which is very regular. Lin Zixiang loves his voice like a performer loves musical instruments and a general loves weapons. You know, just two years before the epidemic, Lin Zixiang, who was 60 or 70 years old, still held concerts in Hong Kong almost every year!
Such a Lin Zixiang, judged by the songs he sings, is definitely a "real man!" ”
