刚听完一生第一次的演唱会。五月天《回到地球表面》只有几句话送上去。好棒好棒好棒!!!好High!!
为么选五月天呢?因为听大家说五月天是最high最简单的演唱会。
没有多余的花样,只有简单的四方面舞台。
没有多出的手段,只有纯粹的贴近人群。
没有复杂的音效果,只是熟练的弹法。
只是纯粹简单的歌声,带出了动人亲民的音乐。
3个半小时的演唱会,感觉上只是1个小时过了。身体的疲累也在第二小时抹掉了。一点也不觉得累了。
全场热烈的欢呼,全场深情的合唱,大家踊跃的站起来。 就如冠佑说的,新加坡是他看过有椅子的演唱会地点,但无人坐着。 每当阿信把mike抵给观众,大家的声音向往整场。全场互动十分配和, 感觉上自己也是表演的一部分。
当玛莎,石头或怪兽尽情地弹电吉他,全场一片欢呼和摇摆。
玛莎的生日,冠佑做蛋糕,还想插蜡烛。石头为儿子创作歌。阿信台上坦白的感言。怪兽团长大将之风。五个男人,五个发亮赤子之心。全场似乎跟着他们逃离了世界的残酷。在那四个小时忘了自己的身份,尽情的放松,全力的豁出去。一场说要把新加坡人的尽力用完,却把本身不健康的人们,尽力越来越旺。观众越旺,台上越玩, 连backup vocals 都开始玩了起来。
阿信说回到地球表面,代表了要脚踏实地。 的确现在的他们,已不是十年前的闯荡小子,而是一种贴近人,一种大家能快乐的音乐代表。那时他们离开台上,这时的回到台上,无人成功地带走他们的音乐。即使是他们门下的弟子,也无法超越他们。他们是华人的Beatles, 成功了创造历史。
不改摇滚的曲风, 贴近现实的歌词,带来人的勇气与认识。演唱会的开头带了大家进入2057世纪,一个少了希望的世界,但尾声说道任何事都会带有一线希望。只是我们能多相信而已。

无需多余的特效,无需夸张的衣裳,无需练好的台词。
简单少装饰的舞台,轻松的上衣与牛仔裤,自然回应的台词。
这是音乐最单纯的模样,这是爱音乐人温柔的付出,这是观众单纯的享受。

爱音乐,爱摇滚,爱五月天!
P.S 今天既然看到了新传媒的3位主打星。刚改名的陈凤玲(现在的名真不好记),黄俊雄和Crocodile年轻代言人。(抱歉,有忘了你名)凤玲是美的咯;俊雄有高达有帅,而Crocodile小子有帅起的脸庞和亲和的笑容。我还跟3位有四目相对的时刻,但抱歉,太晚了,一心想回家的我,没有友善的回应和在乎你们。
Just listen to the first concert in my life. Mayday’s Down to Earth.
Only a few words. Super duper Great!!!
You may ask why did I choose Mayday? Simple, because everyone says it’s the most exciting yet simplest concert form.
No extravagant backdrop, just a simple 4-sided stage.
No extra measures, just being close to everyone.
No complex music effects, just strong skills.
Just a simple voice that brought out moving and close to heart music.
3 hours and a half concert, but it feels like only an hour passed. Originally tiredness from the day was wiped away by the 2nd hour.
The whole crowd warm cheer, the crowd singing with passion, everyone jumping together in the national stadium. Just like what Guan You said, only in Singapore that everyone has a seat but no one is sitting. Every time Ah Xin hands the mike out to the audience, their voices fill up the whole stadium. The movement with the crowd was superb, just like we are part of the performance.
When Masa, Stone or Monster starts playing their electric guitars, the whole crowd was cheering and shaking to the rhythm.
Celebrating Masa’s birthday, they sabo Guan You to become the cake, almost even with candles. Stone was singing a song just for his son. Ah Xin’s honesty on stage. Monster’s steadiness as leader. 5 men, 5 shining young hearts. Everyone seemed as if they left behind their worries on Earth. Forgetting their identities, relaxing to the max and to full power. Ah Xin said their plan was to use up Singaporeans’ energy and return to hotel faster. However, even the unhealthy Singaporeans was becoming more and more energetic. The higher the audience, the higher those on stage, even the backup vocals started to dance.
Ah Xin said the concert was named Down to Earth, meaning that now they will be down to Earth. In fact now they are no longer the young fellows fighting to carve a name 10 years back, but the faces of a type of down to Earth and close to audience rock music. They left the stage then, they return to the stage now, but no one has taken their music away. Even their disciples weren’t able to achieve the same level. They are the Chinese Beatles, shaping their own history.
Without changing their rock style, with their realistic lyrics, bringing out courage and awareness. The beginning of the concert was bringing everyone to the year 2057, a world short on hope, but in the end, it tells everyone to cling on to hope.
No need for extravagant effects, no need for extravagant clothing, no need for scripted speech. Simple non-elaborated stage, comfortable T-shirt and jeans, words from the heart.
This is music’s simplest form, this is music lovers’ heart-felt efforts, this is the audience’s joy.
Love music, Love rock, Love Mayday!
P.S. Also saw 3 Mediacorp rising stars. Felicia Chen, Huang Jun Xiong and the Crocodile boy (Heehee, paisei… forgot your name). Felicia is so pretty, Jun Xiong tall, (not dark but fair) and handsome, and the Crocodile boy has a handsome face with a warm smile. I even was face to face with all 3 but sorry, too concerned on how to get home so did not smile back. Paisei!!!
Mama.... can I buy the T-shirt? heehee.....dreamz dreamz...
