When did you hear the band's songs, when did you hear the name of Mayday, and when did their songs catch your attention? Accompanied by all the way, hand in hand, Mayday unconsciously accompanied us through our youth.
The existence of Mayday not only represents music, but also represents our youthful dream-chasing youth. I happened to meet Jonathan Lee, a noble man, and started a long journey of music
for twenty-three years. The name Mayday is not as simple as the name of a band. It represents a passionate teenager, a teenager with dreams, and a teenager full of positive energy. It represents a dream from youth to all the way forward, and it represents the whole crazy and stubborn youth of a group of people.
For the pursuit and love of music, there will always be like-minded people coming together. Hot-blooded youth plus rock music is youth. Joining the Guitar Club of the College and getting to know the Monster, the president of Guitar Club, may all be fate. The joining of a group soul has opened the door to the new century of music, and soon a small band has taken shape.
some people say that all encounters in the world are arranged in advance, which is also the mission of everyone. Five boys from the initial encounter, to get to know each other, and then to rehearse together, play music together, eat and live together, and establish a revolutionary friendship for them.
Unfortunately, the band of the initial group is backward in publicity and popularity, and the band has gone through many twists and turns, and the progress is not smooth. But fortunately, every member doesn't want to give up like this, and they all have a dedication to music. A Xin, the lead singer, sent his demo Zhiming and Chun Jiao to the famous Rolling Stone Records at that time. Several teenagers didn't know who to send the works to, so they wrote the record producer's receipt on the recipient and marked their little wishes on the back of the backpack.
Maybe the blow made some teenagers feel humble about music. They really want to stand in the center of the stage and release their feelings. So even if all musicians don't think highly of them, they still stick to their ideals and find more record companies to solfeggio, even if the result is not so beautiful.
The result of the story is as expected by A Xin, but no one can think of the ending of the story. The rope of fate extends to teenagers. The parcel was mailed to Rolling Stone Records, and the person in charge of sending and receiving the parcel didn't open it. Instead, he casually saw that the recipient column was unknown and threw it into the trash can. Perhaps many classic works were missed like this. Fortunately and coincidentally, Jonathan Lee happened to come to work in the company that day, and even more unexpectedly, he picked up the parcel that was thrown into the trash can and was taken out by Jonathan Lee.
Out of curiosity and love for music, he picked up the package and listened to it, which was quite good. In this way, Jonathan Lee picked up Mayday and signed the Rolling Stone Record, which officially opened the era of Mayday. In the following months, Mayday was deeply imprinted in the youth of a generation. The singer's dream that I picked up casually also picked up the ups and downs of our youth.
Jonathan Lee thinks this band is very special, and its music style is completely different from that of the singers she came into contact with before. Hearing their music, she was also endowed with the breath of youth and was infected by the young melody. At that time, Jonathan Lee was already the gold producer of Rolling Stone Records, and many big-name singers came from him. It was extremely difficult to want a song composed by him, but he still felt that his style was not suitable for Mayday, and he understood that Mayday had its own way to go and to break through. Pursuing the dream, going forward bravely
I have to say that Jonathan Lee's vision is long-term, and he hit the nail on the head. He can sense the music needed by the times, and Jonathan Lee told them that if you don't make your own music, you won't be called a band.
The words of our predecessors not only inspired the band members' creative enthusiasm, but also made them re-examine themselves. A Xin is constantly learning and making progress, and many works of Mayday are composed by A Xin. Finally, Mayday's first album was released in 1999. There is such a word in the lyrics, which is the most perfect lineup in the whole world. Where there is Mayday, there is indeed the most beautiful lineup.
Of course, what makes them remembered by the whole Taiwan Province is the song Zhiming and Chunjiao. What we remember is the exquisiteness and passion of Mayday. At the end of where you are going to say goodbye to the concert, after singing the last song, the fans didn't move, and no one wanted to leave. It rained heavily during the concert, and even the heavy rain couldn't stop the fans' enthusiasm. A Xin stubbornly stood on the stage and said, Go home, it's all finished, there is no song to sing, so I really want to say goodbye. None of the fans left the scene, giving up and crying, just because of their love for Mayday.
In the history of Mayday Band's growth, fans grew up together with their idols, and even became friends. A Xin said at the concert in the Red Room that we were so lucky that we met all the way, and we became such old friends with you. Mayday was originally very ordinary, just a group of five people, but because of your joining, it became a unique and perfect lineup.
In p>23, five boys who were about to turn 3 were reunited again, which was very touching that they could go away together in the future, and even more fortunate that we were always there, not far away and not leaving. The promise to accompany everyone forward forever, all the energy is put on the concert, the beginning and end of one game after another, the climax and depression, the reunion and departure, all accompanied and experienced one by one.
A Xin, who said that he would accompany us forever when he was young, is 44 years old. His identity has been changing from band to singer, to family to father. He has changed from a teenager with a white shirt to a middle-aged man. He promised to hold a concert in the Bird's Nest, and they did it. They sang in the Bird's Nest four times, and they really did it. They also promised to launch a series of movies. Promise made, dream pursued, go forward bravely. Never-ending Youth, Never-ending Dream
The first time I heard the song "Satisfaction" written by them, it was in the autumn of 12 years, with a blue sky and a slight breeze, and everything was just right. I didn't know Mayday at first, and I didn't know what they called rock and roll. Up to now, every song can cause a * * * sound, and the presentation of lyrics may be just like the old saying that you don't know what you like at first, and then you listen to it.
Mayday Innocence is accompanied by the era of first love. For boys who like it when they were students, it may be like telling at the beginning of the story of the song. We are friends and look forward to it.
The online concert in 22 on Mayday, even though the empty venue in Nuoda is empty, still does not forget to promise to arrive as scheduled. The unchanging people, the unchanging enthusiasm, the unchanging songs, the unchanging youth and the unchanging everything are still so beautiful. Because of the existence of Mayday, everything is so beautiful and everything is just right.
This band, which always sings youth and dreams, has been with us for 23 years. Mayday is A Xin, a stone, a monster, Martha, a blessing, a youth, a dream and freedom that no one can take away.
Many people say that they don't want to die at the age of 25 and be buried at the age of 75. They don't want to be mediocre all their lives. In the end, they can only be ordinary and valuable, but they keep their mouths shut about their youth and dreams. Fortunately, there is a Mayday, and they always sing their stories enthusiastically, reflecting our unspeakable feelings, youth and dreams that never leave.
