Because the protagonist of the first phase of the Time Concert is Principal Tan, but he has really been active in the music world for too long, from the 1970s to the present, many people have not really understood his half-century of musical history, and even some post-00s think that he is only 4 or 50 years old, and Li Keqin is the same age, and Zuo Lin right Li is on fire.
First of all, about the title of principal, the current singers generally take the name "principal" as an honorific, and regard him as the principal of the music world, in fact, at the beginning it was because in the 80s he often held concerts in the summer, and fans went to listen to him sing every night like going to night school, so the media gave him the title of principal, and he also accepted. Later, because he was very concerned about his juniors and promoted young people, he became the principal of the music world
He was also known as "Arun" because his English name was Alan and the Cantonese "Lin" and "Lun" were consonant
Tam Wing Lin had already started his music career as early as 1968, when he was the lead singer of the loosers band, and later disbanded because he went to Singapore to study, until 1974, the band joined the new lead singer Zhong Zhentao, he also returned to the band, forming a dual lead singer lineup, which was the Wenner band that was popular in Southeast Asia in the 70s.
Later, the Wen Na band interrupted the activities as the members flew solo one after another, but they agreed to get together every five years, produce an album and open a concert, and still have not disbanded, making it the longest-lived band in the Chinese music scene.
In 1984-85, he released three albums "Misty Love", "The Root of Love", and "Love Trap", collectively known as the "Love Trilogy", which won numerous awards in the Hong Kong music scene and laid the foundation for him as the first person in the Hong Kong music scene in the 80s.
84-87 years he gained countless awards in the major music awards, causing media gossip, in the 87 years of the award ceremony, he heard a singer in the background complained that he won too many awards, others can only be a foil, so considering the healthy competition and development of the music world, he was the first to propose to withdraw from all song competition award competitions, creating a precedent for Hong Kong singers to withdraw from the awards, making room for the competition of the four kings later.
However, Tam Wing Lin's great point is that even if he quit the award ceremony, he can still achieve countless classics, and his two famous songs "The Favorite of a Lifetime" (1991) and "Can't Tell Goodbye" (1994), which are widely circulated in the mainland, are his works after his withdrawal.
In the 1980s, Tam Wing Lin set the mainstream tone of urban love song style for the Hong Kong music scene, but this does not mean that he can only sing romantic love songs, and he is also very good at singing rock and roll.
Finally, about tan yonglin's voice problem, principal Tan himself has experienced many voice changes, just began to sing, Wen Na period his voice is relatively sharp, a bit like a little girl, and then the voice gradually opened, the 80s voice is just soft and soft, the sound of gold and jade, extremely perfect, to the 94 stadium concert period has become vicissitudes, thick, majestic, and later because of the increase in age, coupled with a period of stomach acid in the middle of the erosion of the vocal cords, resulting in the sound has been impossible as before. But as a fan of the principal, seeing that he has such a spirit of playing football and running every day, I still believe that he can fulfill his promise and sing for the fans until after the age of 80
