Hello and welcome to another edition of China Beat here on China Radio International. This is Zhong Qiu. Taiwan rock star, Wu Bai, is famous for his powerful live shows and is thus dubbed as "King of Live Music". Along with the band of China Blue formed by Wu Bai, this rock pioneer of Taiwan not only reached his fame in the mid-1990s but also brought guitar-oriented rock music and live concerts into popularity in Taiwan. The group's frequent touring and live album releases set a new standard for live performing on the Mando-pop scene. On the 18th of this month, Wu Bai and China Blue will tour the country's capital, Beijing and hopefully will move the city's music lovers again. So with today's China Beat, we will talk with Wu Bai and find out about his fascination with rock and live music.

大家好，欢迎来到中国国际广播电台“China Beat”栏目，我是Zhong Qiu。台湾摇滚巨星伍佰，以其强力的现场秀著称并因此被称为“音乐现场之王”。伍佰和他的乐队China Blue是台湾摇滚先锋，不只是在二十世纪九十年代中期就享有其盛誉，而且使吉他导向的摇滚乐和现场音乐在台湾大受欢迎。这个团体频发的巡回演出和发行新专辑树立了现场演出的新标准。这个月18号，伍佰and China Blue将到达首都北京，并将又一次感动北京的音乐爱好者。所以今天我们“China Beat”栏目将和伍佰聊一聊并找到他的摇滚和现场音乐的魅力。

Originally named Wu Chun-lin, Wu Bai left his hometown for Taipei in the early 1990s to start his music career. The same year, Pony Canyon Taiwan released Wu Bai's first album, Loving Others is a Happy Thing. The music industry in Taiwan took immediate notice of this unique composer-artist who could write music and lyrics, as well as produce and arrange his own music. In the face of praises from both professional musicians and his music fans, Wu Bai said,

伍佰，原名吴俊霖，在90年代早期伍佰离开家乡到台北开始他的音乐生涯。同年，Pony Canyon（1992年，滚石和日本的Pony Canyon合资，成立了波丽佳音唱片公司。当时似乎是考虑以不同的风貌进军台湾，所以包括伍佰、林强、张震岳、BABOO（主唱林晓哲）的专辑还有《只要为你活一天》以及《少年耶安啦！》两张电影概念专辑就从滚石体系移交给波丽佳音发行。——燕子注）发行了伍佰的第一张专辑《爱上别人是快乐的事》。台湾音乐界对这个独特的作曲家产生了极大的关注，他既能作词作曲，同时也能制作和安排自己的音乐，面对来自专业音乐人和歌迷的赞扬，伍佰说到：

"I'm not a musician of mainstream. I was prone to create music based on my own emotions and rhythms."

“我不是很主流的一个人，我认为我是一个以自己的节奏感在做音乐的人”

Following his first album, Wu Bai created a rock band named China Blue, a group of highly professional and experienced musicians, to back him up on his mission to revolutionize rock music in Taiwan.

在发行第一张专辑之后，伍佰创建了摇滚乐队——China Blue，由一组高度专业和有丰富经验的音乐人组成，他们支持着伍佰在台湾变革摇滚乐的任务。

Wu Bai fine-tuned his act with China Blue for two years by touring different cities around Taiwan. As his fan base grew, "Friday with Wu Bai" became a weekly performing event for many listeners, especially college students. And Wu Bai also got his stage-name which means five hundred.

伍佰和China Blue在两年内到台湾的各个城市进行表演。他的歌迷不断壮大，“星期五和伍佰一起”对许多听众来说成为每周的一件大事，尤其对大学生来说。伍佰也因此得到他的艺名。

"I used to charge 500 Taiwan Dollars for my weekly shows in the pub. So I got my nickname Wu Bai from that."

“那个就是每个礼拜五花伍佰看伍佰。”

In 1994, Wu Bai released his second album, "Wanderer's Love Song". This album has sold more than 600,000 copies in Asia and the hit song "Wanderer's Love Song" has been covered by many artists afterwards.

1994年，伍佰发行了他的第二张专辑“浪人情歌”。这专辑在亚洲卖出了超过60万张，热门歌曲“浪人情歌”后来也被众多艺人翻唱。

After the success of this album, Wu Bai continued to give live performances. His enthusiastic performing style won him fans not only in China but throughout East and Southeast Asia.

在这张专辑成功发行之后，伍佰继续开始他的现场表演。他热情的演出风格为他赢得了不止在中国而且很多东亚和东南亚的歌迷。

"It's my happiest time when giving live shows. I dance with guitar and my music is crazy. I'm the producer of my shows, I design the whole concert."

“我最开心的时候就是演唱会的时候，我和吉他跳舞，我的音乐是疯狂的。我是现场的制造者，设计了整个演唱会。”

In January 1996, Wu Bai & China Blue brought their powerful live show to Hong Kong for the first time and had great success.

1996年1月，伍佰和China Blue第一次在香港举行了现场演唱会并获得了极大的成功。

Later that year they released the smash hit album "The End of Love", which sold over 600,000 copies and was honored as one of the year's Top 10 albums. Let's listen to Norwegian Forest, one of the most popular songs from the album, The End of Love.

这一年稍后的时候，他们发行了轰动一时的专辑“爱情的尽头”，这张专辑卖掉了超过60万张并且获得了当年十大专辑的荣誉。让我们来听下这张专辑里最流行的歌曲之一——挪威的森林。

(Norwegian Forest out)

In the year of 1998, Wu Bai tried his hand on acting. He appeared in a Chinese movie "Beautiful New World", playing the part of a street singer. He also wrote and sung the title song for the movie. This song was embodied in Wu Bai's mandarin album "White Dove". Quickly finished in two months, this album manifests Wu Bai's accumulated understanding of life. He believes good music doesn't depend on how long you spend working on it.

1998年，伍佰开始接触演艺界，他出演了一部电影“美丽的新世界”，在里面扮演一名街头流浪歌手。他也写了这首与电影同名的歌曲“美丽的新世界”，这首歌也收录在伍佰的国语专辑“白鸽”里。仅仅两个月就完成了这张专辑，表现了伍佰对于生活理解的积累。他认为好音乐并不取决于你在上面花了多少时间。

"Sometimes, the song which takes you three months to write is not necessarily better than the one you spent five or ten minutes on. However, these five to ten minutes is when your understanding about life exuded."

“有的时候一首歌你写了三个月不一定会比较好，有时候好的东西五分钟十分钟就写出来了。那这五到十分钟就是你对生活的理解体现出来的”

With the release of this album, Wu Bai started a tour in Taiwan in 1999. He held six sold out concerts in a gigantic tent called "Super Dome", which was also a ground breaking event for the Taiwan concert scene. The album and the concerts were the first big events after Taiwan's devastating earthquake in the same year, which comforted so many people's broken hearts.

伴随着这张专辑的发行，1999年伍佰开始了在台湾巡回。他举办了六场售罄的演唱会，在台湾掀起了一股音乐热潮。这张专辑和巡回演唱会是台湾大地震后的一次重大事件，安慰了人们受伤的心灵。（CRI的小编应该是把98年空袭警报——台湾酒厂巡回演唱会记差了：在1998年三月至六月所举办的“空袭警报」”演唱会，从前期规划到正式演出，四个月的巡回，八场演出，包含台湾板桥、台中、屏东、花莲、竹南，马来西亚吉隆坡、槟城，以及新加坡等地，2500位以上的工作人员，以及舞台、灯光、音响所动用的庞大器材，这是完全由国人自制的一场大型演唱会，不但成功缔造了国内最高的票房纪录——超过十二万人次的参与，其它无论在场地的选取、舞台的架设、还有灯光音响的组合上，也是国内所仅见。）

Wu Bai writes his own songs for his albums and also writes songs for many popular artists.

伍佰不但自己写歌制作专辑，还为很多其他知名歌手写歌。

"If I wrote a song for a female singer, for example, Na Ying, a renowned singer from the Chinese mainland, I would think I was a knight-errant coming from northeastern China."

“我给很多女歌手写过歌，比如说那英，我写那英的歌我就想象自己是大侠”

Top of The World is a song Wu Bai wrote for veteran Hong Kong singer and actor Andy Lau. He also performed this song in his own shows and released a namesake EP.

世界第一等是伍佰给香港歌手和演员刘德华写的一首歌，他也在自己的演唱会上演唱同时发行了同名单曲（这个应该是指收录在《空袭警报》里）。

(Top of The Word)

（世界第一等）

Wu Bai continually gave performances with his band during these years. In the year of 2007, to commemorate the 15th anniversary of the establishment of China Blue, the band started a concert tour around Asia named You Are My Flower. And the tour will hit Beijing on April 18th. Wu Bai will change his persistent portrait of singing with a guitar and perform a dance he created himself during the concert. To complete today's program, let's have a listen to You Are My Flower, the theme song of the concert. This is Zhong Qiu in Beijing, have a nice day! Bye for now.

伍佰和他的乐队在这几年仍继续表演，2007年底，为了纪念China Blue成军十五周年，他们开始了“你是我的花朵”亚洲巡回演唱会，并且4月18号就要到达北京。演唱会上伍佰将改变他弹吉他演唱的传统形象，开始表演他自己创作的舞蹈。今天节目的最后我们来听一下“你是我的花朵”这首歌，这是这次演唱会的主打歌。我是Zhong Qiu，祝您拥有美好的一天，再会！

(You're My Flower)

（你是我的花朵）
