Luo Dayou said that writing songs is to leave some living feelings for future generations.
On the outdoor round pot, a yellow-and-white caterpillar like a bottle brush circles the edge of the pot repeatedly. It erects its upper body from time to time, and the movement of a small yellow head is particularly sensitive. Sultry, loopy, weird, hopeless, this is the weather right now. But one day the caterpillar might turn into a butterfly, cool, shiny, and alive. This is what some of Luo Dayou's songs look like, commemorating our feeling of being alive.
See Luo Dayou again. When he gave a concert in Shanghai four years ago, the world had not yet entered a special state. He didn't have to go out of his way to appease everyone, so he sang all kinds of songs. In the huge venue, the lights and the audience are mixed like melted paint, stirring the time to speed up the flow. Luo Dayou in the center of the stage is like a drop of water, reflecting the vigorous scene he is in.
The arrangement of that performance was very rich and booming, which somewhat overshadowed the delicate and introverted texture of the theme "Home". The theme of this show is "Childhood", a band, a group of backing vocals, and a piano on the Hualien Prairie at night. Before I started, I guessed that there would probably be no songs with sharp teeth. In the video released before the performance, Luo Dayou himself said that he wants to give everyone healing and positive energy. But if you can't express your disappointment, and you can't open the window when you're stuffy, isn't it absurd to have only "healing" and "positive energy"?
Now we have nothing to fall back on, time, space, common sense and rules have been transformed, and the new world has not yet been established. Luo Dayou's songs contain tangible, contoured, breathing, and old things, which allow us to temporarily forget the unhappiness and find a better feeling of being alive.
The music is divided into three parts: childhood, love songs and time. If you think about it carefully, they are all incarnations of different times.
Childhood is the beginning of time (forget earth history and cosmic physics). I have heard "Childhood" countless times, and the song states that it is "fuzzy". In fact, everything in childhood is still heard and vividly in my eyes. One of its magics is that everyone believes the future is solid and within reach. The future is embodied in the faces of senior classmates, and it contains the holidays that will come on time. Childhood is the most organic stage of life, because today is not wasted, they will come back to the dreams of the future life again and again. Childhood bites, and no one can escape its bite.
Until the old school reunion, the story of human time entered the countdown, and the future we were sure of was gone. At this time, everyone got together again and "returned to the karma reported by classmates". "Employment, marriage, struggle", this time I found that Luo Dayou put "struggle" at the end. He hid a knife in tenderness.
Time shows its own existence through change, leaving behind a diamond or two that will not change - a frenzied dream and a still smile. Creators are sensitive to time and eager to touch it through creation. Luo Dayou's songs contain a lot of words about the poor and the falling of Huangquan, life and moment, eternal sorrow, world travel, and legends left behind by turning the clouds over the rain. He's a romantic, and his songs feel empty at certain stages of his life. If people's emotions can surge like a spring tide, is life in vain now?
When Luo Dayou was writing songs when he was young, he wanted to jump to the top of the mountain and sit on the moon hook overlooking the world. If you stay away, you won't be blinded by tears when you see your face painted by the wind and dust.
These songs don't need to be sung loudly, they are sung softly by Luo Dayou, who has gray hair. In the thick night, he is holding a small sad intestine, and people are lonely in the depths of love. The magnificent scene has not been reduced to a false visual spectacle, because there is always a small "you" who is remembered by the ruthless city with a smile. The romantic "I" is always like an ancient ranger, not understood by the mortal world.
In all his songs about love, love is as long as a beacon, and a lover is as fleeting as waves. Between the long and the short, there are many goodbyes. Farewell to Cantonese songs, behind the immigrant tradition. Everyone has their own way, trapped by love or confused by the future, and the end is ended by a night plane that cuts through the sky. Luo Dayou's farewell has a wider meaning. It is the end of youth, the fork in the road, the passing of time, the loss of oneself, and the farewell to death.
"Comrade Lover", another kind of love, "Guitar Louder". Discreet subtitles, dense music, singers hunched over surrounded by insects. What he called the "protagonists of the future" was absorbed and spit out by the modern metropolis before it was too late to say goodbye. This song is forever captivating because we never know what love is, what kind of longing is itching our hearts, or what's left when the passion wears off.
Glad he sings more and more on cool nights. "Treasure Please" is a gift from a happy person, with a hot and innocent heart, can anyone take it? Filling the sea and filling the sky is too difficult. I still prefer the sentence he wrote when he was young: Life is hard to live without the blue sky.
Sorry for not mentioning Ai Yiliang and Wutiao, tonight belongs to Luo Dayou.
