I almost gave them this song, "Wake You Up," but I never expected them to create it themselves.
The song "The Last Life" is a representative work of the trio during their time as B An after Huang Jiajun's death. It was released in June of this year, and the album is called "Second Floor Back Seat".
Although this song came out a little late, the best news is that Huang Jiajun is still alive.
I wonder what it will taste like if he sings it himself?
What exhausted Liang Liang was that, just like in the previous life, this song started with a bass solo that was over a minute and a half long.
Didn't they change bassists? How come there's still such a long solo?
However, if you cut out the bass-baring part at the beginning, the intro of the song "Wake You Up" is truly a classic. In Liang Liang's mind, this intro is like a constantly moving car wheel, which is very uplifting.
There's also a Mandarin version of this song called "Right?", but I don't know if they've made it yet.
B An's "Wake You Up" has garnered overwhelming support from fans with its strong rhythm and fast-paced style.
This made all the members of the B An band very excited.
After Huang Jiajun said a few words of thanks to everyone, the B-Band left the stage amidst cheers.
They were scheduled to appear in the middle of the concert, and their appearance marked the start of the second half of the concert.
On the big screen, a singer whom the locals didn't recognize began to appear. He sat quietly at a table, writing furiously. The camera zoomed in for a close-up, showing him writing a piece of sheet music.
"I think creating songs every day is the greatest joy in my life. I've already written hundreds of songs. How about you?"
Xu Wei successfully put pen to paper in this relaxed atmosphere.
While the screen was showing him pretending to be a penman, he and the Black Island Band had already come onto the stage.
Xu Wei was surrounded by the mediocre and low-quality band Black Island.
To his left are ribbonfish, to his right are carp, and behind him are abalone and yellow croaker.
Xu Wei is not one for flowery words; he gets straight to the point, saying only, "Good evening, friends from Xianggang," before beginning his performance.
The first song he sang was "Hometown," which is quite familiar to people from Hong Kong.
This song appeared on Blue Shark's first album and is familiar to many people in Hong Kong.
The people of Xianggang were a bit dumbfounded. This song wasn't sung by this person. The original singer was right there. Was it a bit inappropriate for him to sing this song?
Despite the doubts, cheers still erupted from the audience when that classic prelude began.
The setting sun once again graced my face, reflecting once more my restless heart…
Xu Wei sang one line, and the audience immediately felt the different charm of his singing compared to that of the Blue Shark Band.
It seems this singer's rendition of the song is more convincing than that of the Blue Shark band, and I found myself spontaneously singing along.
Twenty years later, every concert by Xu Wei will trigger a massive sing-along from the entire audience.
This time it was even more outrageous; he achieved this goal right there in Xianggang.
"...That's your broken heart, but mine is so wild!"
"Awesome!"
Whether or not Hong Kong locals know what "牛笔" means, this slogan is echoing in the Hong Kong Coliseum again. However, this time, it wasn't Leung Leung Lai who shouted the slogan, but Abalone, the drummer of the Black Island Band.
Since the unexpected success of shouting this word during the audition in Lianwan City, everyone agreed that it was the finishing touch that could have a surprising effect at the concert, so it has been used ever since.
The world will never lack people who join in the clamor. Regardless of whether the Hong Kong farmers know what "niubi" means, this shout of "niubi" came at just the right moment, and the Hong Kong Coliseum erupted in cheers.
By this time, those audience members who had entered with the intention of provoking and causing trouble had been completely captivated by these singers from mainland China and their songs.
"This is real music! What kind of music are those songs from our hometown now? Can you even call them music?"
"No wonder people look down on the Four Heavenly Kings. Compared to their music, the Four Heavenly Kings are really no good."
"I agree with your point of view, Brother Hao. Compared with singers from the mainland, it seems that singers from Hong Kong can only be singing craftsmen."
When "Hometown" was finished and before the next song started, some people in the audience began to complain.
By comparing their performances with those of mainland bands, fans clearly discovered that the musical philosophies of these mainland bands were completely different from those of the Hong Kong music scene.
While these mainland Chinese songs also have a commercial aspect, they are not as heavily commercialized or commercially driven as those in Hong Kong.
The music scene in Hong Kong seems to exist solely for making money, with most songs being covers of other artists.
Meanwhile, mainland musicians insist on originality, and almost all the songs they hear now are original, with no cover versions.
Aside from B An Band's "It's All Your Fault" being a cover version, they still covered their own songs.
With such a comparison, the superiority is immediately apparent.
At this point, the half-baked host Liang Liang came on stage, and expecting Xu Wei to do a self-introduction was simply wishful thinking.
"The singer performing on stage now is Xu Wei, a rising rock singer from mainland China. He is also a very talented songwriter, and you will hear his own compositions in a moment. Although this song, 'Hometown,' is not his original song, it will be his signature song from now on. Next, please welcome his band, Black Island, to perform their own song, 'Black Island.'"
Xu Wei stood to the side with his guitar, while Zhang Yong took the center position.
Ribbonfish, mouth, old skin!
Zhang Yong, who has three nicknames, has made his appearance.
Black Island is also a metal band. Their song "Black Island" has evolved several times and now has a grand and majestic accompaniment. It is a song that was appreciated by Liang Liang, so it is naturally not bad.
Zhang Yong dared to make such a fuss, so his voice must have its own unique qualities. He has a naturally deep, honest voice, and the natural sounds he makes without having to force them are like those of someone with an endocrine disorder.
However, many rock singers in the 80s and 90s were willing to sing like that.
Liang Liang felt that if he were to sing the songs of a singer named Da Zhuang from twenty years in the future, it would be perfect.
After the lead singer finished singing, a dense melody composed of bass and kick drum foreshadowed the coming storm.
After this solo performance, Zhang Yong's deep voice suddenly rose, as if lightning pierced the dark night and thunder exploded in the sky.
Zhang Yong sang the long part of the chorus in one go.
The audience was so stunned by the explosion that they forgot to applaud.
They had just been fooled by the Hanchuang Band, and had just sobered up a bit with the song "Hometown" when bricks and bombs started falling on their heads again.
