4:24 Lovely how he picked up 王菲's mad ability to manipulate her voice so comfortably. She really is one of a kind in the Chinese music industry. Even up till this day.
Faye Wong's voice got a bit of Sinead and Cranberry in it and blended in and created her own voice, very enigmatic, stylish, psychedelic, lazy and disengaging! She definitely stand out on her in Chinese music scene! Great clip, enjoyed many of your clips, keep pumping them out!
It is very interesting what people feel about a song when they do not understand the language. Probably more focused on music itself and more objective on the performance. The repetitive thing is certainly an issue of all Chinese pop music, traditional, classic or maybe a little bit outdated.
shes still in her prime in 2004, it's just that she had a bad cold that night, unfortunately. You'll notice that if u had listened to the whole live album
Amazing! He can tell she is vulnerable and sweet from this song! In fact the very first song that made her famous is called “a vulnerable woman” which featured her very sweet angle voice.
You picked the right song of her, it was one of my favorite! The lyrics are kinda philosophical. Actually the music she did in the past were mainly Dream Pop and alternative.. she had a lot of lazy voice in most songs
中间那段solo的吉他手是窦唯。两人在这场音乐会合作之后大吵了一架。The guitar artist that Joe mentioned was the singer’s exboyfriend. He is a talented singer as well AND he discovered Fei’s special voice and helped her a lot in her music career. It was said they argued heavily after this concert. So I guess there was some miscommunications between those two before this performance
12:54 I felt the same... but I am the one who tried to find something I want to see. That's why I found you. and I found Joe Creator has his youtube. I also like his reaction so much. he got a great ear to catch every single changes in music. Nowaday in Hong Kong, most musicians love to put the band on stage and will have intro section to let us know the names of each musicians. so the world is changing Joe.
7:38 The main point in this part, according to the MV version, was the keyboard solo (disguised as violin or played by actual violins), hence why it is quite muted. There are covers where there are pure guitar riffs. 8:11 10:55 That was the point because the lyrics were written by Albert Leung (林夕) to deal with her first divorce with Dou Wei in 1999 (married in 1996). She was 30 then, meaning her divorce came at a time where women traditionally had reached "The End of Spring" because women used to marry very young. Hence the really bitter and resentful lyrics.
