Released in 1984, the album "The Roots of Love" can be said to be tam Wing Lin's most classic album, and it can also be said to be the most classic album in the Hong Kong music scene. In fact, this is an epoch-making album, marked by it, the Hong Kong music scene has entered a golden age represented by Tan Zhang Mei.
On July 27, 1984, "Roots of Love" was released. The album poster was promoted in four words: Everyone is looking forward to it. In fact, this album is really worth looking forward to. At that time, the official retail price was 29 Hong Kong dollars a piece, and the market was fried to 46 Hong Kong dollars a piece, and the total sales of this record that year were more than 2 million copies, which was an impressive result! "The Root of Love", "Love in Late Autumn", "Summer Cold Wind", "Who Can Change" can be called Tan Yonglin's classic songs. Chen Feili's "The Root of Love" was at the top of the list in the 2000 20-year 20 golden songs selection, and the cover song "Love in Late Autumn" by Korean singer Cho Yong-bi can be regarded as a very popular song of Tan Yonglin, and it reflects Tan Yonglin's magnetic voice. This album is mainly based on adapted songs, mainly to the Japanese pop music, before that, the Hong Kong music scene is actually represented by Hui Guanjie, Guan Zhengjie, etc., with the small citizen culture, martial arts culture as the content of the musical style, with the take-off of the Hong Kong economy, this style has gradually lagged behind the times, so to the popular music center of Japan at that time closer, is also the most clear signal given by this album to the Hong Kong music scene.

01. The root of love
The theme song of the movie "Gentleman's Good Luck"
Composer: Chen Feili
Lyricist: Lin Minxiao
Arrangement: Ludoni
In 2004, Hong Kong musician Chow Kai Sang held a charity concert in the Red Pavilion, and when introducing his works, he said that he had written 5 songs to Tam Wing Lin, one of which was "The Root of Love", but the composer of the day did not write his name, but he stressed that it was not to reveal anything, but to retrieve the "biological boy" that had been lost for more than 20 years. As for being asked by reporters at the celebration banquet that the composer of "The Root of Love" is Chen Feili, but now he is actually written by him, does Tan Yonglin know about this? He said that many people knew about this matter that day, and he stressed that he did not want to turn this into right and wrong, nor did he feel humiliated, nor did he regret helping his friends, but only wanted to find out the facts. This statement caused an uproar. So, is "The Root of Love" a work by Zhou Qisheng? Perhaps only their client knows best. Personally, I think that as a music titan, the big disciple of the godfather of music Gu Jiahui, the talent of music creator Zhou Qisheng does not need to be questioned, and there are many excellent works, there is courage and courage to say it, it should not lie in front of so many people, and an excellent creator should not have only one song in his life, and he has gone away afterwards, which is worth looking for! Although from the perspective of Zhou Qisheng's main works, "The Root of Love" is difficult to match with his style. However, in 1984, Zhou Qisheng's music creation was just beginning, and it was not difficult to rule out the transformation of creative style. Zhou Qisheng said this when recalling the scene of that year: At that time, I was listening to a foreign song "T ouch M e In T he M orning", with the inspiration for the creation of "The Root of Love", and then a little itchy, playing on the phone to a friend, I don't know if it was recorded by the other party or how, it became his work, whoever sang this song had to pay royalties to him. I never formally took any legal action, and everyone knew that the man went to Vancouver and did not dare to return to Hong Kong. A liar will not confess his guilt, but will only tell a bigger lie to cover it up. I'm not counting the millions of dollars in copyright proceeds, just get back a fair deal. In addition, Zhou Qisheng also said that before they were friends, they would not sue their friends in court because of a song, just as helping friends. What you create yourself, as long as it is recognized by others, as a musician, music is really more important than money. There are also reporters who asked Tan Yonglin, after all, Principal Tan is only a person who deduces, the situation behind the scenes is not clear, and he can only swallow the jujube and push the responsibility to Poly Gold. The song of "The Root of Love" is Chen Feili, Baidu took a look, Chen Feili this person seems to have disappeared, there is no trace, and only stay in this song. Zhou Qisheng is a very low-key person, in addition to interacting with Li Keqin, Ye Shirong and a few other old friends, he has rarely heard from him in the past twenty or thirty years. Being able to say this in public requires confidence and integrity. In addition, Zhou Qisheng's attitude towards music has always been very clear, he has a song called "Angel and Devil Mixture", which was originally written to Zhang Guorong, and missed the opportunity by chance. "At that time, I rushed to record the second album, the song had been written, but someone on the record company asked me not to sing to my brother, I kept singing it for myself——— I wanted to share this story with young people now, if it was me now, I would handle things better, let my brother sing first, and then record a different style version myself, so that this song is stronger and more liked." 」 Judging from Zhou Qisheng's ability and personality, I would rather believe that "The Root of Love" is his work. However, 33 years have passed, and as Zhou Qisheng himself said, everything is no longer important.
The sky next to the gravel is my home, the dark sky is my root, and I can live only for you. Whoever on the road inadvertently wants to get to know me, leans on my side, who on the road lights up the fire of my heart, stops the infinite warmth, and results in my heart socket. Closing your eyes seems to be yesterday, your heart is close to me, let my love flow, let me have it all, accompany me to eternity, accompany me to believe in love can be forever to the whitehead. The sky next to the gravel is my home, the dark sky is my root, and I can live only for you. Who warmed me yesterday with warm breaths, but the sound of this breath no longer belongs to me, who is in the sunset, staring at me and hugging me, letting the evening wind blow, letting my hands touch. Closing your eyes seems to be yesterday, your heart is close to me, let my love flow, let me have it all, accompany me to eternity, accompany me to believe in love can be forever to the whitehead. The sky next to the gravel is my home, the dark sky is my root, and I can live only for you.
02. Cold wind in summer

In the crowded beach, in the golden brown skin, flashing the sweat of the summer, but I felt cold and cold, shrunk my shoulders and smiled bitterly, and the north wind seemed to blow around me. Only because the warmth in her heart disappeared with her, today I only had a string of tears, saying who she loved me for millions of years is now. Although I don't blame her for taking away the rising sun, I blame her all my life, only taking away the tears left in my delusional heart. Screaming at me for emptiness, emptiness, hatred for her heartbreak, knowing why she had to do the plaything in the end. Calling me empty, empty, angry that she was wrong, for holding back tears, and from then on I would like to live alone in pain.
03.Urban Love Song
Episode of the movie "Gentleman's Good Luck"
Composer: Welling
Arrangement: Adrian Chan
Looking back at her bright and radiant people in the street, it is difficult to understand how God made people equal, and the blood in my heart burned my body a thousand times, flying to leave a sweet kiss at the corner of her mouth. Love is the lamp of love on a long road, breaking through this crowded city, finding the ideal sweetheart, and no longer sadness.
It is difficult to understand the weak little heart, the love is intoxicating, it is difficult to understand that the appointment of the beautiful person always has to wait, under the street lamp my shadow said that there is no need to wait, but the encounter will not leave a reason. Love is the lamp of love on a long road, change and then find a new direction, find the ideal sweetheart, no longer sad.
04. Love in late autumn

Composer: Lee Ho-joon
"Love in the Late Autumn" from the lyrics, music to Tan Yonglin's interpretation, can feel the faint sadness, but there is no sadness and pain, in fact, many of Tan Yonglin's early classic songs have this "mourning but not hurting" style.
If fate is destined to break up, there is no need to pretend to keep it for me, if love is eternal and immortal, how can it break up.
In the future, let me lean on the late autumn, remember the lost love in my heart, remember in the memory of me, today I have tears.
Please look up and erase the old things, there is no need for me, there is no need for you, love is unattainable, you are lovely forever, I am really reluctant to let you go.
One day let you lean on the late autumn, remember the me who did not go, remember you at this moment, and also shed tears.
