To ask the post-90s favorite and most familiar singers are probably Jay Chou, Lin Junjie, Pan Weibai, SHE, Jolin Tsai, Mayday, Penny Dai and other Taiwanese singers, to ask the post-80s their answer should be the four kings, Nicholas Tse, Faye Wong, Yang Qianwei, Eason Chan, Beyond and other Hong Kong singers, to ask the post-70s their answer is probably Tan Yonglin, Qi Qin and other generations, but when asked about the post-50s, post-60s and some post-70s, probably everyone's answer is Teresa Teng, Xu Xiaofeng, Rowan, Lin Zixiang.
Yes, Lin Zixiang is such a god-like existence in the music world. Hong Kong Golden Needle Award, one of the top five winning singers of the Industry Lifetime Achievement Award is Lin Zixiang, Andy Lau is his disciple, Jacky Cheung said that in front of Lin Zixiang, please don't call him a god of song. Lin Zixiang's music involves a variety of styles and genres such as rock, rap, R&B, and pop, and many works are still popular and avant-garde even now.
In the third season of "Our Song", the program team invited Lin Zixiang as a senior singer, and Lin Zixiang, who was born in 1947, is 74 years old. I thought it was an old singer who came to show, but I didn't expect that as soon as the old man stood on the stage and opened his mouth, he moved us to cry on the scene and in front of the screen. In the words of the host Lin Hai, Lin Zixiang is the only singer who sings the singer crying, especially Yang Qianwei, who also sings Cantonese songs, and feels even more deeply.
In the second phase of the show, Lin Zixiang and junior singer Hu Xia partnered to sing his classic song "Digital Life". The origin of this song is very story-oriented, inspired by the movie "Computer Rhapsody", there is a clip of the heroine playing the cello, and then recording the sound into the computer, Lin Zixiang asked the lyricist to express a song in the simplest way, and later when the lyricist drove, he saw the license plate of the car in front of him suddenly came to inspiration, and wrote the song "Digital Life" with numbers.
Although the lyrics are simple, "Digital Life" is extremely philosophical. Lin Zixiang said: Everyone is controlled by numbers, age, IQ, money, every corner of life has numbers. But there is also a saying that in fact, Mr. Lin was very helpless when he sang this song, because it described the scene of hong Kong's national stock speculation in that year. At that stage, people were kidnapped by numbers and lost in various measurements.
But being born as a human being, it is rare to walk in the world, why can't we shed the shackles that bind ourselves? Isn't it sad that everything around us is being kidnapped by numbers?
"Digital Life" not only has a profound meaning, singing is also a test of singing skills, not only the number of lyrics is difficult to remember, and the rhythm is very fast, more importantly, the fast rhythm is often interspersed with super high notes, a little careless will go out of the sound or even break the sound. However, the program team seems to have made arrangements early, arranging for Lin Zixiang, a powerful faction, to be a junior partner.
Although it is difficult, Lin Zixiang evaluates him as a real man, because Hu Xia has done a very good job!
In another program, Lin Zixiang and His Wife sang "Digital Life" with Li Keqin as a helper, when the two almost "sent Li Keqin away". Hu Xia is really not easy, keep up with the rhythm of the old man, after singing hard breathing, deep breathing, in his own words, this song once thin a pound, the whole program down Hu Xia lost several pounds.
However, Hu Xia was also blessed by misfortune, the first to play was refused by Yang Qianwei to form a team, until finally partnered with Lin Zixiang, which was his blessing, and this cooperation with his predecessors benefited a lot, better than reading ten years of books.
This cooperation is very successful, netizens said that watching them sing all feel lack of oxygen, followed by a vicious expression, teleprompters and whatnot are all decorations, which are not useful at all. Don't say sing it, you can't read it, because the rhythm is too fast!
And the 74-year-old Lin Laozi is not inferior at all, even better than the younger Hu Xia. Such strength must be perennial pen cultivation, practicing singing every day, in order to maintain such singing strength.
Super sincerely recommend that you go to see the video of this version of "Digital Life" sung by Teacher Lin Zixiang and Hu Xia, be sure to bring the best headphones!
