The last song He Yong sang was called "Bell and Drum Tower". It is not accurate to say that it is Chinese style. In the final analysis, it is still a rock song. However, "Bell and Drum Tower" added traditional instruments such as sanxian and bamboo flute, and incorporated northern elements.
Folk elements sound refreshing.
Especially in 1994, this attempt was very bold.
"My home is just inside the Second Ring Road. People here have so much time. They are chatting about whose family is good and bad. They are watching what brand of cigarette you take out. The hard-working people in the small restaurant are from other places.
Fellow villagers, their faces look like mine. They ride bicycles on fallen leaves and watch the sunset disappear. The Yinding Bridge can no longer be seen clearly, and the Western Mountains cannot be seen clearly..."
The lyrics are almost in the form of line drawings, outlining a picture of the capital city outside the Bell and Drum Towers. The style is completely different from the previous songs.
In the first three songs, He Yonggong used punk, post-punk, metal and other rock elements. Singing them live was really exciting and got the whole stadium excited, but those songs were just venting and questioning without any deeper thinking.
and insights.
It wasn't until "The Bell and Drum Tower" that He Yong finally returned to his original nature, just like the swordsman in Jin Yong's novels, who was promoted from the "fast sword realm" to the "heavy sword realm" and realized the essence of lifting a weight with ease.
As for the Great Immortal Dou Wei, he is at least a master of the "Wooden Sword Realm". In a few years, after encountering setbacks and becoming an immortal, he will be able to advance to the point where he can win with no moves.
Because of the crazy bottom line in the front, although He Yong's song is not exciting enough, it still makes the audience happy to listen to it. Especially when the three strings in the middle are completely integrated into the main melody, playing like a guitar solo, Huang Jiaju and others are all excited
I was dumbfounded - rock music can still be played like this!
And after a heart-warming vent, all the instruments except the keyboard stopped, and Dou Wei suddenly played the bamboo flute. The melodious flute sound was in sharp contrast to the rock melody in front, as if he was suddenly transported to a quiet alley from a downtown area.
, sit and watch the sun rise and set, and the people live and breathe, and the artistic conception of the whole song is sublimated.
Of course, this song also has many flaws, but as an exploratory piece of music, we don’t have to be too demanding. After all, this was only 1994.
Kang Jianfei couldn't help feeling a little emotional. In another time and space, due to the collapse of Moyan Records, the musical exploration of the three masters of Moyan came to an abrupt end. Zhang Chu died, He Yong went crazy, and Dou Wei became an immortal. The glory of the past could only be short-lived.
"Pap-pap-pap-pap!"
Amid warm applause, He Yong introduced the band members, and then said: "I am very happy to come to Hong Kong to perform, enjoy and exchange music with my friends in Hong Kong. Here, I would like to thank all the staff and also
Thank you to every audience present. The most grateful ones are Mr. Kang Jianfei and Mr. Zhang Peiren. They have given us a lot of help in rock and roll. Without them, there would be no concert today. Thank you!"
Looking at He Yong bowing on the stage, Kang Jianfei couldn't help but laugh. This paragraph was not included in the rehearsals two days ago. It was all made by He Yong's temporary feelings. Don't think that this kid is acting like he is not doing the right thing, but he is actually quite clear in his heart.
He also knows the occasion and is a good person.
When Ho Yong came to the end of the stage, countless audience members shouted to stay and wanted him to sing another song. The situation was almost the same as when Beyond left the stage. For a singer who debuted on stage in Hong Kong for the first time,
It's simply unimaginable.
The Tang Dynasty band that performed last was more commercial and pop-oriented, and the effect of singing two songs was quite satisfactory, until the third song - "Internationale"!
To be precise, it's the rock version of "The Internationale".
"Arise, you hungry and cold slaves!
Arise, you suffering people all over the world!
The blood in my heart is already boiling,
Fight for the truth..."
If someone came to Hong Kong to sing "The Internationale" in normal times, they would definitely be scolded as crazy. But at this moment, "The Internationale" seems to have become the cry in the hearts of rock fans. The few live audience members who are familiar with the Internationale actually stood up and sang along.
Sing loudly.
Everyone is having fun. As for doctrines and politics, go to hell!
The Tang Dynasty band did not leave the stage after the performance. Dou Wei, He Yong, Zhang Chu, Beyond, Tai Chi, Wu Bai and others also returned to the stage one after another.
The emcee shouted loudly: "The following applause invites Mr. Kang Jianfei!"
"Ohhhhhhhh!"
Countless people shouted wildly together, and the celebrity audience in the audience also followed suit.
Kang Jianfei walked up and took the microphone and said with a smile: "I'm not here to sing, I just want to say a few words, everyone be quiet!"
The audience didn't care that there were so many, Anita Mui even took the lead in making a fool of herself, shouting: "Queen's Road East!"
"Queen's Road East!"
"Queen's Road East!"
"..."
The scene was filled with shouts, and a young beauty wearing jeans beside Jacky Cheung also shouted: "Queen's Avenue East!"
This group of star-studded audience members had already gathered in the audience, only two or three meters away from Kang Jianfei, and the lights were bright at this time, so he could see clearly. Kang Jianfei pointed at those guys and said with a smile: "Don't shout, who calls me again?"
Let him come up and perform alone!"
"Queen's Avenue East!" Huang Qiusheng climbed onto the stage shirtless. He didn't even need Kang Jianfei to call him by name, so he climbed up on his own.
Kang Jianfei was not polite and kicked him back to the stage, happily saying: "You are no good, you are too ugly. You will scare the audience during the performance."
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Looking at the disgraced Huang Qiusheng, the others laughed happily, and then continued to cheer: "Queen's Avenue East, Queen's Avenue East!"
Zhang Chu, who was standing at the back of the stage, asked in a low voice: "What is Queen's Avenue East?"
"I don't know." Dou Wei shook his head.
He Yong said: "I have heard a rock song by Kang Jianfei."
"Isn't he a film actor? He can also sing?" Zhang Chu was a little surprised.
Dou Wei said: "I have only listened to his pure music album "Original Scenery of My Hometown", which is very awesome."
When Dou Wei said he was awesome, he meant he was really awesome, because he rarely praised others. Both He Yong and Zhang Chu began to look forward to Kang Jianfei's performance.
Kang Jianfei really just wanted to say a few words, but now the whole audience was inciting and booing him, making him a bit unable to get off the stage. Finally, he pointed at the young girl next to Jacky Cheung in the audience: "That so-and-so, come up!"
"Me?" Chen Huilin quickly backed away.
She was brought here by Zhang Xueyou, and she was surrounded by big stars. But no matter whether Chen Huilin wanted to or not, everyone laughed and pushed her onto the stage. Chen Huilin rolled and crawled for a long time before she could stand still.
Kang Jianfei asked knowingly: "What's your name?"
Chen Huilin said nervously: "My name is Chen Huilin, I am new to the music scene and I haven't officially released a record yet."
Kang Jianfei smiled and said, "Didn't you scream loudly down there just now? Why were you as scared as a quail when you came up?"
"That..." Chen Huilin wanted to explain.
Kang Jianfei interrupted directly: "Answer me, can you sing?"
"A little bit." Chen Huilin replied with a guilty conscience. Her father is a jeweler, and he has been studying design in the United States. She is a typical white, rich and beautiful person. When she returned to Hong Kong some time ago, Chen Huilin was invited to shoot an advertisement, and she was unexpectedly chosen as Jacky Cheung.
The heroine of the MV was signed by Fengxing Records.
Kang Jianfei laughed and said: "Since everyone is strongly requesting it, I will sing a duet with this beauty. Who will accompany her?"
"I'll do it!" Huang Jiaju from behind suddenly raised his hand.
Luo Dayou also went crazy and climbed onto the stage and said, "I'll play the keyboard."
Zhang Xueyou jumped up and up: "Leave the bass to me."
"The guitar is mine!" Lin Zixiang was not far behind.
Finally, Lei Youyao, the leader of the Tai Chi band, took a step forward and said, "I can play the drums."
Apart from anything else, this accompaniment line-up was powerful enough, and the tens of thousands of spectators in the audience screamed. (To be continued)
