On September 5, 2009, "Men should strive for self-improvement" Lin Zixiang's Foshan concert [edit this paragraph] Superhuman singing voice If we say that Al Lam Lin Zixiang is the highest-pitched male singer in the Hong Kong music scene, no one will object. Yes, he is born with a very impactful and explosive voice. In other words, his singing voice is very "choking" and almost impossible to imitate. Besides, even if he can sing in LAM's high range, he can't compare to his fullness and power. , the average singer always uses falsetto to raise the voice. Even if some very capable singers use their true voice to reach the high range, their voices will become high-pitched and monotonous. It is difficult to be like LAM, even if the high pitch is stretched to the limit, it will still sound. Full of momentum, so the reason why LAM was able to dominate the music scene and dominate for a while is not that simple!

Let’s take “Digital Life” as an example first. If you want to sing this song, in addition to the high pitch, you also need to be full of energy. Otherwise, there are two places. One is that you will definitely go out of tune, and the other is that Lin Zixiang sings it with all his heart. You will definitely die singing this song: First, "4:34 Price Soars and Changes to Zuo 1004", especially "Zuo 1004". I remember that when Eason Chan covered this song, he had to use falsetto to barely pull it off, and when EASON When singing at the highest point, the sound is obviously weak, and it becomes very monotonous, without any momentum, so it is difficult for any singer to successfully sing to the limit of Ah LAM. Even if there is sound, it is difficult to have energy; another place is Ah LAM repeatedly sang "0434, 0434, 0232, 0232, 0646, 0646, 0878, 0878, 0515, 0515, 0242, 0242, 0696, 0696, 0272, 0272". The lyrics were even more continuous the second time. Twice, the speed is fast and urgent. To sing that section, you must first control your breath. Otherwise, even if you can sing the first time, you will never be able to finish the second time. No wonder EASON omitted it when singing the cover!

The other song is "Mirage", which is recognized as a "difficult song". The most difficult part of this song is that the climax is very continuous and rapid, and it has to gradually rise to a high pitch. You can rap the climax while singing "Keep you, keep you, it's hard to let go, it's hard to let go, stay with me, stay with me, beg forever, beg forever" first adjust the syllables and breath, and then "woke up from the dream, how to accept it, helpless, she must go" , Love Symbol, Mirage" where the treble is gradually raised to the extreme area, which is the highest HIGHD. At the same time, in order to successfully sing the climax of this song, in addition to mastering the tone and breath, it also requires an extremely full singing voice, because LAM's High notes always have a sense of power, so when you sing, you feel like you are always in a "sprint state", and then reach the limit in successive "sprints", that is, "explosion". Therefore, rapping LAM's "Mirage" actually requires a lot of skills. .

Then, LAM sang twice in a row at the climax. After the first high note ended, there was only a "breathing" opportunity for two notes in the middle. Then he immediately entered the second singing, and once again transitioned from a smooth alto to Extreme high notes. Although "Digital Life" is also sung in the same manner (and there is no "breathing" opportunity to sing "0434" directly during the transition), it does not need to be raised to high notes like "Mirage". The melody has always been relatively stable. If If you want to test your breath, singing skills and use of momentum at the same time, "Mirage" is more suitable. At least now I see that no one dares to challenge this song whether it is a cover by other pop singers or netizens. It does not mean that they can't sing it. , but they cannot be as full and powerful as LAM, and if you are not careful during the process, you may run out of breath or go out of tune, so I personally feel that only LAM can sing this song "Mirage" well!

There are two other songs that must be mentioned: "Real Man" and "Men Should Improve themselves". These two songs can be said to be synonymous with "manhood", and they are also famous "exam songs" ( If you can successfully sing these two songs in the music school's singing test, you will be admitted on the spot)! First of all, "Real Man", this song can only be sung by LAM's voice, both the melody and the lyrics are very powerful. , can shock every audience at once. The melody composed by LAM is combined with the lyrics of teacher Zheng Guojiang. When he sings it, he immediately reveals a majestic "king over the world", which makes people's blood boil. A LAM alternated between clear and hoarse voices in his singing. In the beginning, his voice was clean: "Success or failure, try hard. If you are determined, you should not be afraid of delay." At the end, his voice gradually changed from clear to hoarse, and from "weak" It becomes "strong", especially in "Seeking to devote oneself to safeguarding justice". At "righteousness", LAM drags the high note to C3 or even D3, and stretches the sound for an extremely long time. Sometimes it is unbelievable. Ah LAM can actually sing the notes and momentum at the same time with his real voice! When singing "Real Man", whether you can hit the high notes is not the most important thing. The key is whether you can sing with that kind of toughness and grandeur! , LAM used his high notes and the full momentum to perform "Real Man" so heartily that no one would dare to cover this song in the future. Not long ago, it was rare to hear a slow-tempo "Graceful Man" "Version" is incomparable to LAM in every aspect! As for "Men Should Be Strong", it goes without saying that LAM's version completely surpasses Jackie Chan in terms of momentum. No matter how high the pitch in the song is, LAM It's no big deal, but Jackie Chan's "singing" is all about "playing". His version is quite satisfactory, but if you want to sing the majesty of "Ten Thousand Horses Galloping" like "General's Order" It is still difficult for him to compare with LAM (I remember he himself said at the concert: "This song is so difficult to sing, it makes me hang my neck!") Because LAM has a lot of confidence, he can be very thorough. It perfectly interprets the essence of the melody of "General Order" and Huang Zhan's lyrics, so I personally think that LAM's version of "Men Should Be Strong" best shows the momentum of "General Order", and there is no need to say much else. Just feel it slowly!

AHLAM’s singing skills are not only reflected in the high notes, but he also has many works worthy of special mention: 1986’s “AHLAM Diary” can be said to be the most outstanding Chinese song. The earliest RAP song sung by a pop singer, and the song is extremely fast. You must have a lot of confidence to sing it. It is so difficult that even Pan Shuai's "Happy Worship" can't compare. The pronunciation of the lyrics written by LAM himself is honest. There are also some "circumstances". Even Cantonese people are prone to making mistakes when rapping (later, at the "Warner 15th Anniversary Concert" in 1992, several singers adapted "AHLAM Diary" into "Diary of the Stars" to sing, but it was just one person singing (a paragraph), but "AHLAM Diary" is not considered the "highest level of difficulty". "Ten Ten Twelve Inches", which started the trend of "skewering songs" in 1985, is truly amazing. AHLAM sang in a song that lasted nearly ten minutes. There are song excerpts from N singers, and they all sang in a unique style. People can't help but admire his superhuman singing skills. Many people began to think that singing "mixed songs"

"It's nothing great, but when they listened to "Twelve Ten Inch", they all had to be surprised, and they all had to admire LAM's ability. Later, Chow Yun-fat also imitated LAM and sang the new "Twelve Ten Inch", But it’s hard to compare with LAM’s level. Although LAM is a singer-songwriter, he doesn’t make every record 100% original. Sometimes he can produce several song collections (such as “85 Song Collection”, “ Lin Zixiang's "Pop Song Collection", "93 Song Collection" and so on. He also handed over 8 of the 12 songs in "Live Color" in 1981). Sometimes he also chooses to cover some of his favorite foreign songs, such as Albums such as "No. 70 Flower Street", "A Hundred Billions of Nights", and "Evergreen Song Collection" are mainly cover songs, but covers are covers, and LAM also sang his own style, which can even surpass the original version, especially " "One Hundred Billions of Nights" is recognized as a work that completely surpasses the original version of "LONELY WONTLEAVE MEALONE". LAM's singing is full of infinite tenderness, from the calm at the beginning to the surging at the end, it is all touching. In addition, "One Hundred Billions" "One Night" was also called "a milestone in cover songs" and "a work that changed the style of Hong Kong pop songs", which shows its status in the music industry. As for another cover of "Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now", "Dare to Love Dare to Do" is also It is recognized that it is comparable to the original version, but LAM performs a different style every time, so there is no sense of "singing someone else's song", which is amazing for a cover! He is good at singing high-pitched and fast songs, and he also has a lot of feeling when singing some tender and slow songs. For example, "This Night" allows him to sing the protagonist's feeling of being gradually swallowed up by emptiness and loneliness, and "Thousand Needles Pricked in the Heart" is A kind of pain that seems to fall into the abyss, "Every Night" is full of affectionate songs praising friendship, "Long Road Is With You" has the momentum of "Men Should Be Strong", and Huang Zhan also added a RAP verse, which is very unique New ideas, "Ancient Capital Rome" makes people feel the vicissitudes of the sunset in its majesty, "In the Middle of the Water" has the tenderness and tranquility of the Jiangnan water town, "Live Color and Fragrance" has the gorgeous style of Shanghai in the 1930s, " "Flag" makes people hear the dignity of the country... In short, whether A LAM writes or sings, he has various styles, country folk, R&B, RAP, HIP-POP, Chinese classical minor, rock , Latin, electronic, etc. have all appeared in his works. It can be said that A LAM is a very diversified singer in music.

For today's young people, in addition to his There seems to be nothing more than a mustache, but when you listen to his works, you can definitely find out: this is not a simple singer! Not only that, his superhuman singing voice given by God is even more! It is beyond the reach of younger singers. Moreover, his emotional singing has also become the object of learning for younger generations. A LAM is definitely an indispensable and important figure in the Hong Kong music scene in the 1980s, and he was the one who made Chinese pop music go to glory. An important hero!
