Beyond, who is Xiaomei, the lyricist? Pray for the great gods.
Xiaomei is a Hong Kong female lyricist who debuted in the mid-1980s. The female lyricist with the deepest qualifications and highest achievements in Chinese music can be said to belong to her. Later, Xiaomei's life changed a lot, because she met Aaron Kwok who came back from Taiwan Province to develop in Hongkong. Since then, she has become Aaron Kwok's agent and his exclusive lyricist, and has never been to Chongqing again. Xiaomei, originally named, was a poet as famous as Lin when she debuted. She has composed many popular songs for Amy Tan, Leslie Cheung, Beyond, Wang Jie, Hacken Lee and Huang Kaiqin. Xiaomei won the Best Lyrics Award in the 9th Radio Television Hong Kong Top Ten Chinese Golden Songs for her "Several Storms" written for Tan, becoming the first female lyricist to win this honor, breaking the male monopoly in Hong Kong's lyricist field. In addition, Xiaomei's "Who resonates" for Leslie Cheung and "Really Love You" for Beyond are the most widely sung works in her early days. Xiaomei is very good at adding a sentence or two to the plain lyrics, so that the artistic conception of the song can immediately turn ordinary into great. For example, the last sentence of "Who resonates" asks who resonates in the dead of night. In the days we walked together, "You have me, love, life, death and righteousness". In I Really Love You, Xiaomei combines the theme of maternal love with Beyond's autobiographical struggle in a unique and warm way, making this song one of Beyond's most successful works. However, in recent 10 years, Xiaomei's name seems to be only associated with Aaron Kwok's name, although she tailored the lyrics for Aaron Kwok. Neither of the parties involved in the scandal between Xiaomei and Aaron Kwok made a public statement. But one thing is certain: without Xiaomei, there would be no Aaron Kwok today. If there is no encounter between the two, Xiaomei, who appeared as a lyricist, may leave us with more classics worth remembering. Representative works: How many storms, whose resonance, I really love you, the sunset is drunk, raining, the days we walked together, emotional accumulation, silent gratitude.
