"Love you alone in the dark alleys
Love the way you don't kneel
Love you confronted despair
Won't cry."
Eason Chan's new song "Lone brave", launched overnight, 200 million plays, in various broadcast platforms, dominated the chart for up to 3 months.
In the comments of NetEase Cloud Music more than 25W+, many netizens said they were inspired.
There are patients fighting cancer, firefighters in the wind, anti-drug cops who have just joined the police, and ordinary people who are preparing for important exams...
Behind this touching song is a strong girl who has experienced 9 years of fighting cancer.
Those knife-and-knife lyrics are the refinement of her life.
She said: "It's for ordinary people like me, walking alone at night. ”

01▼ Career peak, suffering from cancer
When the NPC notification was received, it was Chinese New Year's Eve 2011.
On the reunion night of Wanjia's lights, Tang Tian sent a Weibo:
"Chinese New Year's Eve, I was diagnosed with nasopharyngeal cancer. I hid in my room and cried, and Wrote many wishes, the most important one: I want to live past my parents, and I can't let them send white haired people to black haired people. ”
After posting Weibo, she didn't say anything, and strongly accompanied her family to eat Chinese New Year's Eve meal.
Subsequently, she left home and rushed back to Beijing alone, doing a comprehensive examination by herself, and passing the New Year alone.
She didn't inform her parents until chemotherapy was arranged.
In the next 2 months, she underwent 2 rounds of chemotherapy and 33 sessions of radiation therapy.
During the treatment, even water can not be used, radiotherapy and chemotherapy are carried out at the same time, and the entire mouth is ulcerated.
Chemotherapy for nasopharyngeal cancer is based on the head and may stimulate complex surrounding nerves, so patients suddenly lose their sense of hearing, smell, and taste.
You don't know which day a certain feeling will suddenly leave you, and when God will return it to you, it all depends on luck.
One night during chemotherapy, Tang Tian and her mother went out for a walk, passing under a osmanthus tree on the side of the road, and her mother casually said: "The osmanthus flowers are so fragrant." ”
Tang Tian couldn't smell it, and she could only echo it: "Ah, yes." ”
When she got home, she wrote a sentence:
"God has borrowed my sense of smell, when will he give it back to me?"
"Bad Fairy Tale" written to He Jie was created at this stage.
Every sentence is Tang Tian's own voice:
"I've been slapped in the face by the reality of my dreams. If you can't break me, look at my desperate flowers. ”
She is trying to make flowers in a desperate situation.
In May 2012, her parents secretly appeared on the "China Dream Show" in the hope of helping her realize her dreams when her daughter could still see and hear.
Tang Tian's parents were a little nervous on the stage, reciting a new lyric she had written on her hospital bed.
"I cry when I hurt, I sleep when I cry, can you understand this ordinary humility, the taste of heaven?"
Tang Tian's mother said: "My daughter is sick now, I just want to fulfill her dream, her favorite musician is Eason Chan, I hope he can sing a song she wrote." ”
Eason Chan said in the program connection that in the future, there will be opportunities to cooperate with Tang Tian:
"Whether it's a cappella or a good one, I won't fail your work."
Luck finally took care of this optimistic and strong girl.
After treatment, Tang Tian's nasopharyngeal cancer was cured and did not leave any sequelae.
02▼ Fledgling, talent revealed
In 1983, Tang Tian was born in Hunan.
Probably the love she developed during school, she has her own unique perspective on writing.
In 2004, Tang Tian graduated from university and entered Hunan Television Station for internship, when the entire entertainment department of Hunan Satellite TV was preparing for "Super Girl".
As an intern, Tang Tian is not yet qualified to participate in this program.
At that time, she followed her teacher to produce the first popular album "Black and White Movie" of Hunan Satellite TV, which was her first contact with the entire production of the record, laying the foundation for her to become a lyricist in the future.
In June 2005, Tang Tian's career began to take off, she followed the entertainment channel to Tianyu Media, left Changsha, went to Beijing, and participated in the work of the phenomenon-level talent show "Super Girl" that year.
For the Supergirls in front of the stage, this is a stage to shine; for Tang Tian, it is a huge pressure and workload.
That year, Tang Tian, who had wandered away, was like a bird fluttering in the wind, and Beijing was too big for her.
In her notes, she wrote:
"I just took a means of transportation, and then I went to the far north, and when I got out of the car, I saw the capital airport in Beijing, there was a cool wind at night, and the crowds waiting in line for the bus, I walked slowly and alone, extremely lonely."
This trepidation lasted for several months, but soon Tang Tian adjusted her state, as a newcomer, she has a passion and dream for this industry, and she wants to do better and longer.
She spends time practicing pen every day.
"The lyrics are a story with themes, and every day I go and grab 2 or 3 themes that make me feel. That is, to write two or three lyrics. ”
Tang Tian once said in an interview that he was not a particularly talented person, but he just loved writing and persevered.
Kung Fu pays off.
In 2005, Super Girl's debut chorus album "Super Girl Ultimate PK" was released, and of the 11 songs included, she single-handedly wrote half of the lyrics of the entire album.
Zhou Bichang's "Notes", He Jie's "You Must Be Happy", Zhang Liangying's "If Love Goes On", tan Weiwei's "The Sound of Snow Falling" are all her eye-catching report cards.
As soon as she entered the music scene, she could write several popular songs, and her talent was naturally beyond doubt.
However, just as Tang Tian was preparing to make a big show, fate made a cruel joke with her.
She was greeted not by a bright future, but by cancer.
So she turned the pen in her hand into a gun and gambled with fate.
After experiencing life and death, Tang Tian changed.
She threw away all the colorful clothes she had worn before she became ill.
Because those clothes represented the vivid Tang Tian before, that was the youth of her fresh clothes and angry horses.
And what really changed wasn't just her style of dress.
03▼ Fate took away her youth, but gave her the ability to perceive life
During the treatment, she filled in the words for Shang Wenjie's "Ultimate Faith" and Yao Beina's "Love Without Reflection".
"In front, there is a glimmer of light, and the night shines."
"We've loved, we've laughed, we've been crushed by time."
It is through the experience of pain that can outline the determination to struggle in pain and move forward positively in a few words.
After her illness, she also established a new purpose in life, "all troubles do not exceed 24 hours." ”
In "The Light Chaser", she writes about love but can't.
"Whenever I look up for you, even the tears feel free, and some love is like a heavy rain, but I still believe in the rainbow." 」
She did not overly accuse those who threw herself into love as humble, but stated that after being hurt, she still believed in her own strength.
In "Decent", which was looped by countless people in "Former Raiders", she wrote about dignity after a breakup.
"Don't pile up nostalgia to make the plot, become dog blood." I have loved it for many years, so why ruin the classics. It's too late, it's too late. Just keep, say goodbye to dignity. ”
She encouraged girls to have their own self-esteem and decency, no matter what they went through.
In "Orchid Grass", which was changed for "Sister Riding the Wind and Waves", she wrote that the strength of women is tough and sonorous.
"I went up into the mountains, with orchids and grasses. The mountains are windy and rainy, and the cliffs are also blooming. Unwilling to live in a warm house, facing the wind and basking in the moonlight. I admire the world and the earth, and the flower language is sonorous. ”
There is also the just-hit "In the World", she wrote about the sadness and joy of fate.
"The bitterness of the world, the love to be scattered and the rain to fall, the sweetness of the world, how far to go remember to go home." 」
Commented by netizens that "singing to the heart, tears can not be stopped."
This year, once Eason Chan sang "The Lone Brave", it was broadcast more than 200 million times on the whole network overnight.
After 9 years, Tang Tian finally completed her dream, and she and Eason Chan completed their agreement with each other.
The glowing girl was finally seen by everyone.
Some people say that the lone brave is not only the hero in the game, but also the struggle and life of every ordinary ordinary person.
Tang Tian told everyone that whether you are lonely or ordinary, even if you are in tattered clothes and covered in mud, there are still people who love you, and you can become your own hero.
Whether the dream is humble or lonely, as long as you have the courage, you can sing a sentence:
"Go? Go, in the most humble dream. ”
"War? War, with the loneliest dream. ”
Some people say that at different ages, they like different songs of Tang Tian.
And she is not writing her life with songs.
Before illness, Tang Tian's works were dreams, youth and love;
In the face of cancer, in her works, you can see the tenacious indomitability and shining vitality;
After recovering from her illness, she immediately rekindled her love for life.
Tang Tian couldn't help but face death squarely, and because of this, every word she said had the power to reach people's hearts, and every song was a living life.
Finally, salute to every lone brave person who walks in the world, you are all your own heroes!
