To be precise, Luo Dayou should be the godfather of Taiwanese pop music. Just listening to his voice may sound a little hoarse, making it difficult to listen to. But his contribution to Taiwanese music is indelible. Each classic work is enough to make up for the shortcomings of his voice. Besides, everyone has different aesthetics. Some people prefer this hoarse voice and think it is Luo Dayou's characteristic.
Luo Dayou's popularity probably occurred in the late 1970s and early 1980s. At that time, there was no real godfather of pop music in Taiwan. The appearance of Luo Dayou brought hope to music. He incorporated the mood of a teenager into his songs, and in one fell swoop he became the pinnacle of the barren era. 1. Other people’s evaluations of Luo Dayou
To understand Luo Dayou’s status in the music industry, we can just look at the evaluations of the big guys. Li Zongsheng is now regarded as a figure with the status of a master. He once commented on Luo Dayou, saying that when he was in the school team, Luo Dayou was already a superstar. Li Zongsheng regarded Luo Dayou as a symbol of the times and believed that he created a historical stage of Taiwanese music.
In addition to Li Zongsheng, Tao Zhe, Wu Bai and others also admired Luo Dayou. Tao Zhe regards Luo Dayou as a musical beacon, while Wu Bai thinks that Luo Dayou is too powerful and he will never be able to become him.
Even writer Wang Meng, when commenting on the inclusion of Jin Yong's novels and songs in the textbook, said that Luo Dayou's "Seventy-two Changes of Phenomenon" is a timeless work. 2. Singing and works
Luo Dayou’s singing voice is a bit hoarse, which makes many people uncomfortable. Some people hate it, but some people like it. In the era when Luo Dayou became famous, few people could compare with him. In addition to his voice, some of his songs are still widely circulated today.
Songs such as "Childhood" and "The Story of Time" are played during recess in many elementary and middle schools. And "The Story of Time", "The Way You Look" and "Love Song 1990" are even more indelible classics. "Tomorrow Will Be Better" sung by various stars in 1985, the leader of this song was Luo Dayou. This song was also sung by stars as a charity song during the Indian Ocean tsunami and the new crown epidemic. 3. Fame and strength are equal
Luo Dayou is regarded as the godfather of Taiwanese pop music by netizens, who believe that he is a banner of the Chinese music scene and a symbol of an era. From this perspective, his reputation is very high. And his strength is worthy of his fame. Others can enjoy one song for a lifetime, but he has countless songs that can last a lifetime.
In addition to the classic works that we often listen to, "Dream Chaser", "If the Wine Is Sold Without", "A Laugh in the Sea", "Like an Old Friend Comes", etc., are also very classic songs. It is no exaggeration to say that he is the peak of an era. As the first person to stand at the pinnacle of the Chinese music scene, he has become an idol in the hearts of countless people, setting off waves of pop music crazes.
