The music scene in Taiwan, like the Music scene in Hong Kong, reached its peak in the 1980s and 1990s.
In the new century, the entertainment circles of Hong Kong and Taiwan have not only not become more brilliant with the progress of the times, but have begun to show a state of decline.
But in that glorious era, a lot of music, a lot of movies and television, and many stars and celebrities, became classic memories.
In the 1970s, four female singers began to rise, and the four of them began to divide the Taiwanese music market.
These four are Teresa Teng, Feng Feifei, Zhen Ni, and Youya, among these four, many people will be accustomed to comparing them with the rankings, such as the previous rankings, which are often thought by many fans.
Among these four female singers, the highest achievements in the future, needless to say, naturally belong to Teresa Teng.
Teresa Teng has become a name that can never be erased in the Chinese music scene, and her songs represent sweet, positive, upward, elegant and other beautiful attitudes to life.
Although she has only stayed in this world for 42 years, she has left us countless spiritual food, which is a miracle that many descendants cannot surpass.
Then again, there is a very coincidental thing among these four actresses, they were all born in 1953.
Among them, Teresa Teng was born in January as the oldest, followed by Zhen Ni in February, Feng Feifei in August, and Yuya in December as the youngest.
[1] Teresa Teng
Born on January 29, 1953, if she were still alive, she would be 68 years old today. Unfortunately, she died in Thailand on May 8, 1995, becoming an eternal wound in the music scene.
Teresa Teresa already had a strong affinity for art at an early age, and she was already guided by a music teacher in elementary school, and at the age of 9, she already had the opportunity to participate in the tour with the band.
In 1963, she participated in the Huangmei Tune Song Contest and won the championship in one fell swoop, when she was only ten years old, and Teresa Teng, who was still studying, had already become famous, but for the sake of her studies, her family did not rush to let her full-time singing career.
After entering middle school, in order to improve his singing skills, he used his extracurricular time to participate in singing training classes and graduated with a good result of the first place. He then participated in a singing competition, won the championship, and was invited to participate in a performance program on tv for the first time.
That year, Teresa Teng, who was only 14 years old, could not hide her talent, and the music scene had been waiting for her for a long time. Therefore, Teresa Teng chose to take a leave of absence from school, thus entering the music scene and signing a contract with Taiwan's Universe Records Company, and a superstar in the Chinese music scene has since begun to rise and shine.
Teresa Teng's 70s and 80s were the most glorious times, she was not only the most popular female singer in Taiwan, but also developed in Japan and became the most popular female singer in Japan.
In fact, Teresa Teng is a versatile singer, famous for singing Huangmei tune songs when she was a child, after full-time singing, her Chinese songs and Cantonese songs were released at the same time, in addition to Hokkien songs, English songs, and learned to sing in Japanese when she went to Japan.
Where there are Chinese, there is terriba Teresa's song, which is not blown.
[2] Zhen Ni
Born in 1953, Zhen Ni has a mixed-race face, which makes her particularly conspicuous among the crowd. Although she was not born in Taiwan, Zhen Ni followed her family to Taiwan from an early age.
In 1971, after Zhen Ni was discovered by star scouts, she was invited to enter the show business circle and signed a contract with Galaxy Records. In that year, he launched his first solo music album "Heart Lake", and the market reaction was not strong.
Later, Zhen Ni was invited to hong Kong to develop, where she met two musical geniuses, Huang Xia and Gu Jiahui, who created her first Cantonese album "Struggle", which received more than 800,000 copies of sales after its release, so Zhen Ni received more attention in Hong Kong.
After releasing several albums, Zhen Ni used the name of her husband Fu Sheng to form a record company called Golden Notes, which had her own records and was no longer subject to the influence of others.
The company's most classic cooperation is the film and television soundtrack of "The Legend of the Archery Hero" produced with Rowan, and the "Iron Blood Dan Heart", "Hello in the World" and "Life is Meaningful" sung by Zhen Ni and Rowan have become Zhen Ni's most classic Cantonese golden songs.
However, the good times did not last long, on July 7, 1983, her husband Fu Sheng died in a serious car accident, and the grief-stricken Zhen Ni had to shut down the record company, and even thought of taking a life when she was saddest, fortunately accompanied by good friends.
After Fu Sheng's death, Zhen Ni has not remarried until now, she chose to collect this love, and for Fu Sheng, she also gave birth to a daughter through sperm freezing technology, which is the biggest love for Fu Sheng.
Today, 68-year-old Zhen Ni has rarely appeared, there is no news of happy events, it seems that she is going to be lonely and old, but it is fortunate to have a daughter to accompany her.
[3] Feng Feifei
Feng Feifei, a generation of hat singers, was born in Taiwan on August 20, 1953. Because she likes to wear hats of various colors every time she performs, she is called a hat song queen.
In fact, at first, she did not want to wear a hat to perform like this, but because when she participated in the performance, she did not have a lot of assistants around her like the current stars.
As a singer, where to perform, makeup, dress and other things are still done by yourself, only big-name singers have assistants.
Feng Feifei, who has not yet become famous, always put on her own makeup to treat her hair, and once when she was preparing for a performance, her hair was not done well, and she had to wear a hat to press the scene when she was in a hurry.
Who knew that the performance worked well, so she fell in love with the hat performance, and by the time of her death, she had collected and treasured hundreds of different hats.
In 1968, Feng Feifei won the championship by participating in singing competitions, and forced by life, she began to work as a resident singer in major dance halls.
In 1972, Feng Feifei signed a contract with Haishan Records and officially debuted in the music world, releasing his debut album "Wish You Happiness" in the same year.
In his subsequent singing career, Feng Feifei dedicated classic golden songs such as "I Am a Cloud", "Moon Hazy Bird Hazy", "Dream Chaser" and so on.
She was also a female singer who could compete with Teresa Teng in those years, and her singing voice was also popular in the mainland for generations.
Years of performance, so that Feng Feifei's vocal cords were seriously damaged, in 2011 she went to the hospital for examination, but found out advanced lung cancer, although trying her best to treat, she still left the people who loved her forever.
On January 3, 2012, Feng Feifei died of illness in Hong Kong at the age of 59. The superstar is gone, and we only have eternal nostalgia.
[4] Yuya
Yuya was born in Taiwan on December 18, 1953. Her singing voice is very recognizable, and her voice is clean and transparent, very characteristic.
Yuya began to work as a resident singer in a bar at the age of 16, and was therefore favored by the famous musician Liu Jiachang and accepted as an apprentice.
Later, Liu Jiachang wrote a song "The Past Can Only Be Remembered", which became a classic golden song after Yuya's singing. Although this song has been around for 50 years, it is still covered and sung, which shows its classic degree.
Youya is also the first generation of Taiwanese jade female singer recognized by fans, and her youthful and beautiful appearance is especially popular with teenagers.
Youya not only Chinese songs, but her Hokkien songs are also very distinctive and very beautiful.
If you are not familiar with Youya, but you must know that Andy Lau and Jacky Cheung once regarded her as an idol, which shows that her influence at that time was still quite a lot.
In addition, Youya also has a more classic love song "In the Rain", which is a Chinese song sung with teacher Liu Jiachang.
Youya is also Zhen Ni's sister, because Liu Jiachang not only accepted Youya as an apprentice, Zhen Ni was also one of the apprentices.
Now, these older generation of singers have retired, some have left us forever, and some are living in seclusion.
But thanks to their contributions to the music scene, their songs will always be cherished.
