Not long ago, someone in the family was fascinated by a song, which has been sung by Lin Zixiang for nearly 30 years, "Dare to Love and Dare to Do", released in 1990, although it has been sung for nearly 30 years and won numerous reputations, but because it is a Cantonese song, and the song of "Iron Lung Devil" Lin Zixiang is extremely difficult to imitate, it is not popular in the mainland.
Lin Zixiang is not tall, and he is also thin, but he is born with a voice with great impact and explosive power, which is particularly "choking" and almost impossible to imitate. On the super long high pitch, no singer in Hong Kong has ever spelled him, in the early years there was a chance for the stars to sing together, basically no one is willing to sing with Lin Zixiang, because no matter how loud and high the tone you are, in the end, the whole audience can only hear the voice of "chorus killer" Lin Zixiang.
So I basically didn't think that someone could imitate Lin Zixiang in front of Lin Zixiang, and it could be so good that people could praise a singer who didn't have to be much worse than the original singer.
To be honest, although the second half of the imitator's singing has obvious shortness of breath compared to the original song, it is already a rare talent, coupled with its superb skills, it is more "popular" meaning, making people more catchy.
Just by looking at the appearance of this imitator, it is really difficult for me to associate him with the side field of the previous years who was in the sky and was known as "Jacky Cheung's successor".
Side Tian was once known as the best singer in Hong Kong, and was even recognized in the Hong Kong music scene as more capable of singing than Eason Chan. His most recent appearance was in 2017's "The Masked Singer", where a side field wearing a "Little Prince" mask had a mouth, and no one in the audience was willing to make a sound. But at the final unveiling moment, the "little prince" who came out from behind the curtain still wore a mask and did not dare to take off the "protective shell" that accompanied him for several weeks: "I hope to wear this mask all the time, because the little prince is perfect, and the side field is imperfect."
Wu Qixian commented on him: I think it is the Hong Kong music scene that has surprised you.
From "Jacky Cheung's successor" to "abandoned by the Hong Kong music scene", what really happened to Bian Tian in the middle?
Born in 1976 in New York, usa, He returned to Hong Kong at the age of two and immigrated to Seattle at the age of 13. Influenced by his family, Luo Dingwei tried to play the piano and compose music on his own at the age of 6, learned guitar at the age of 10, and has been a choir member since childhood. However, he studied graphic design in college, and after graduation, he worked as a programmer at Yahoo in the United States, but the dull and boring life of a programmer eventually made him choose to quit his job and fly to Hong Kong to develop his music career.
While composing his own compositions and sending them to major record companies, he took some design work to maintain his life until 2003, when His uncle introduced him to the well-known musician Ray Songde and worked as a behind-the-scenes staff member in Ray's company.
In 2004, he created two popular songs for Gu Juji, and was able to perform as a guest of Gu Juji's "Golden Song Concert", and a cappella song was appreciated by gold medal manager Huang Baigao, and since then he has come to the front of the stage from behind the scenes.
On November 28, 2005, the 29-year-old Side Field released his first solo album "Justin", in fact, many people do not know that The "stage name" of Side Field is Justin's Cantonese English translation.
The side field, which is not tall and not prominent enough, surprised many people and became popular with this album.
The album sold 15,000 copies on its first day, and at the end of the same year, Sidefield won all the newcomer male singer awards at the Four Media Music Awards in Hong Kong.
In March 2006, four months after the release of the first album, Side Tian appeared at the Hong Kong Red Pavilion to hold a solo concert, and the guests were Gu Juji and Miriam Yeung, who were the most popular at the time. At that time, Lei Songde commented on the side field: "In Hong Kong, one person can support a concert, except for Zhang Guorong, there is only side field." ”
At that time, the Hong Kong entertainment industry also had an "unsolved mystery": what was the secret of the head of the side field?
Since Entering the music scene in 2005, the duck tongue hat, turban and beanie hat have never left the "head", and even when filming the advertisement "Flip Bucket", the hat has never fallen off, so the hat he wears is called "magic hat" by the outside world, and he is also suspected of using universal glue to glue the hat for a long time.
Some media have speculated from his ID photo that he may have deliberately covered up with a hat because of "less hair".
A drunken runaway in 2009 confirmed media speculation.
In the early morning of September 23, 2009, Cao Ge and Side Tian clashed drunkenly after a recreation in a Hong Kong nightclub, and the two "embraced" each other and fought in the streets of Central.
It was also during the fight that Latera briefly took off his hat to tidy up, thus revealing his "real hairstyle".
Recalling the incident many years later, Side Tian revealed that he actually spoke to Cao Ge on the phone the next day, saying that he hoped that no paparazzi would see it, and the result was a report on the third day, and the comments of netizens were quite rude.
However, the focus of media attention is also quite magical: because Side Field is facing trial due to a fight, and because hats cannot be worn in the courtroom, Side Field's hair secret will eventually "surface".
In order not to let the media who have always had a bad relationship with him see the joke, Side Tian simply gritted his teeth and shaved his head.
Later, everyone knows that the careers of Both Lateral And Cao Ge were greatly affected by the fight, and Cao Ge did not rely on "Where Daddy Goes" until 2014 to turn over again, and Lateral Field had no daughter-in-law and no children, and sank.
Some time ago, I saw someone ask, if there had been no fight in that year, would Latera's achievements today surpass Eason Chan's? In my opinion, not necessarily.
The fight was nothing more than a fuse. There are not many people who are red, and this should be viewed from two aspects: people red will flutter too quickly.
In fact, since The side field began to become popular, all kinds of reports that are not favorable to him have not been broken.
Sideta likes to drink and get drunk into a pool of mud, likes to chase girls, and "playboy" is a label given to him. In 2006, he attended the birthday party of his colleagues in the company and was dizzy, and he had to be helped by his colleagues to leave to be photographed by the media, attend zeng Zhiwei's birthday party, and when he left, he was unsteady and shouted for fun to be photographed...
In 2008, when Side Field and his girlfriend took a taxi after drinking, a girlfriend suspected of "attacking" the male driver, the driver claimed to call the police, Side Field and his friend actually fled into the wilderness, disguised as a "bully car", the meaning of the big change of taste, not to mention, the most serious damage is the image of the artist.
In addition to being drunk and disrespectful, Side Tian is also becoming more and more arrogant in talking and doing things, he said that he does not want to take too many free performances, afraid that he will sing badly! She said what she said, so she temporarily missed the appointment and missed the free performance rehearsal, which provoked the music principal Tan Yonglin to openly teach: "This old brother must go to church and teach!" ”
The girlfriend in the side field report also has a big basket, Yang Qianwei once commented on him: "He is a person with deep affection, when chasing girls, he is very careful, and will spend a lot of time and thought to express his love with girls, in order to please each other." "The more you really pay, it is called "flooding", and the media always spares no effort to "report" on him. The reason why he has a lot of "reports" is that on the one hand, he is really not cautious enough, and on the other hand, because he has returned from the United States and has no awareness of "good relations" with the media.
If there was no fight with Cao Ge that year, he might also have been mired in other drunken incidents.
In 2011, after the Red Pavilion concert, Heitian tearfully announced his withdrawal from the Hong Kong music scene and moved to Beijing.
At the beginning of 2012, Sidefield joined Huanya Entertainment with a salary of tens of millions, and in the same year, Sidefield and Cao Ge openly kissed and feuded, and the two still maintain a good interaction.
In February 2013, Huanya released a new record for him, "Hard Battle". In May of the same year, SideTa stepped on the stage of the Red Pavilion and held a solo concert. The side fields made a comeback, but failed to "make a comeback".
Sidefield's cover of Lin Zixiang's "Dare to Love dare to do" happened in the same year, and the program that took place in the cover song was not a popular program.
On the stage of "Singer 2017", the host introduced the words used by The side field: "It was regarded as Jacky Cheung's successor". A "year" contains helplessness and change, and if it is me, I will probably choose to turn my face.
Leaving Hong Kong that year, Side Tian said: "My goal is not to become popular. My values have changed, and my family and loved ones are number one. Money, enough is enough. I want to find inner peace, not peace now. Up to now, he is indeed at peace: "I am now 40 years old, and I have finally learned that highs and lows are not important, the process is the most important, to see how strong I can face difficulties." ”
When The side field was red and purple, he actually had a retreat, "At that time, I already wanted to leave." As soon as I debuted, it was so red, that was fate, the time and place were favorable, not my credit. I wasn't quitting the music scene at the time, I just wanted to get out of the way and catch my breath. ”
Also as he said, he is transparent. Except for the songs, everything, including life and feelings, is taken out and seen thoroughly. When artists enjoy flowers and applause, these are also indispensable "giving".
In 2019, Side Tian held another concert in the Red Hall, his head was not hidden, and he accidentally "collided head" with Lejia.
Some people commented that "ten years ago, the fate of the fate was to intercede, and the fate of ten years later can really see from the performance that the side field experiences after the free, the performance is not excessive, and it is just right, because he can come back again!"
The magnetic voice of a middle-aged man sings the confusion and affection that middle-aged men cannot pick up and do not want to put down. Luck is like a side field, the talent can finally be displayed, and the unfortunate is also like a side field, which is wrapped up in an impure environment and carried to a distant place. We look forward to the return of the mature Sideta, who has become his "ideal singer".
