David Tao 陶喆 / 陶绪忠 - TOP 5 Songs on Spotify! | SP LIVESTREAMS

[@willsmith4735]

When I was young I liked Jay Chou and David Tao, as I grew older I liked David Tao more.

[@渊张-k2c]

I think the most impressive aspect of David Tao is his live performances, especially his concerts. I recommend his "SoulPower" concert in Hong Kong.

[@spiderhandspnz]

Thank you, is it available online?

in China，We often call David Tao the godfather of R & B， because he first brought R & B into China，Jay Chou has said more than once that David Tao has a great influence on his music. However, David Tao has always stressed that this is a misunderstanding. He prefers to make rock music rather than R & B, but there were too many R & B styles in his early albums, which led to such an impression.

[@amandawang5688]

about the piano solo in the middle I think maybe Its a metaphor for the author's inner struggle and then his emotions finally explode , cause the lyrics before means " you love me or him? I've found a hundred reasons for you... maybe silence is the answer maybe I can understand.... " that's how the solo makes me feel.

[@wcloutdady2359]

im new to your channel, have watched some reaction videos of Jay and DT, you did good job bc seldom do westerners would appreciate music in other languages including Chinese songs, but many many Chinese songs are superb. Keep doing this and I will follow the live stream, cheers

[@spiderhandspnz]

Thanks WCLOUTDADY ! Glad that you enjoyed the videos. Will keep an eye out for you in the Livestreams!

[@lsy97]

I missed the livestreaming yesterday, so glad that I actually watched it after it's uploaded. I died laughing when you started talking about kiwis and the video with DT reviewing your review. I will try to translate things he said in the video below :)

[@lsy97]

1:12:12 David asked why didn't you choose other songs because the song you chose was a less exciting one in terms on musicality , but it's alright. 1:12:47 David guessed you should be a kiwi based in New Zealand. 1:13:20 David was translating your comment for his viewers, you mentioned something about mandopop songs having similar melody at the start. David then added that actually 85% of mandarin songs are like this, they start off with piano. 1:15:26 David said he's curious about when the review was filmed. 1:15:31 David said that since you are analysing him, he should analyse you too. He went on briefly about how Australians, New Zealanders and Britons have different accent even though they all speak English, same goes for Scotland and Ireland. 1:16:20 David translated 'Astute' for his viewers, and humorously asked if he is indeed that 'Astute'. He also told his viewers that they probably can learn some English vocabulary by watching Spiderhand's reviews. 1:16:57 David was correcting your pronunciation, he said it's not 'woo laa', it's 'woo wap', and it also sounds a little like 'doo waa'. 1:17:42 David said the guitar was played by Bruce Watson, a musician which he had collaborated with for a long time.

[@lsy97]

1:18:17 David finds your review interesting because you are commenting from a different perspective, as someone who is not that familiar with Mandopop. 1:18:30 David said the drum was played by his MIDI programme. He added that similarly, he would have a different perspective too when he listens to American/ Indian/ Japanese music. 1:19:40 He said Beyond's music came out around ten years before him, Eason and Jay, so Beyond would sound very different from them. Also, Beyond had more 'band sound', so they can be quite different. 1:21:00 He commented that this song indeed had more 'band sound' too, and he is happy that his mandarin songs reached non-mandarin-speakers. He shared that another song of his, titled 飛機場的10:30 (10.30am at the airport) was covered by a korean singer, Cho Kyu Chan, and he felt very honored that even Korean singer do listen to his mandarin song.

[@lsy97]

1:21:38 David said reading directly translated lyrics would be difficult. 1:22:41 David commented that you are very polite but also a bit sarcastic at times, but he is totally alright with it. He also said that translated lyrics can be quite funny. 1:23:25 David was talking about the comments under your video, some viewers recommended other songs like Soul Power, Melody and 黑色柳丁 （Black Tangerine) to you. 1:23:41 David said the original demo of that song was written in English and the vibes was quite different from the finalised version. 1:24:08 David said he admires people who does livestreaming because they had to talk and also listen to many people talking simultaneously. He himself have difficulty focusing on his speech when looking at your video, so such multitasking skill is really sick.

[@shiounio]

So happy to see you in YT!

[@spiderhandspnz]

Thank you, Rulin Kuan! It's good to be doing this YT stuff :)

[@caishifan28]

love DT's music

[@spiderhandspnz]

The dude is a legend!

[@haohao8910]

Thank you for your reaction,SPH!

[@spiderhandspnz]

You're welcome! Rock on!

[@lastfirst9976]

Good shit. David's song always gives me good vibe. Dunno how's your plan like for this series. I hope Khalil Fong be in the queue as one of the most talented singer & songwriter from Hong Kong.

[@spiderhandspnz]

Hi there Last First - glad to hear you enjoyed it! The plan for this series... we've got BEYOND next week, then I think we have... Zhou Shen, or Li Zhi. One of those two, I could be wrong! We can definitely add Khalil Fong to the queue, for sure.

[@YushinWE]

One of the best Mandarin musicians of all time along with Leehom, JJ, Jay, etc.

[@ganche6411]

I'm sorry that I just saw the video of your reaction to David Tao today😭. It’s very sincere and professional. What I want to say is that David Tao actually has a rock heart and is also a super classic rock lover. R&B is only part of his music career, including himself. And he hates being called the godfather of Chinese R&B. If you want to know more about David Tao, I sincerely recommend his sixth studio album - 69乐章, which is a rock album based on the band's voice.For him, this is an album that is loyal to himself, returns to the original intention of playing music in his youth, and speaks freely. Finally, I like your videos very much. They are very sincere and impressive. I can't wait to see more of your videos!😃😃

[@spiderhandspnz]

Thank you Gan Che! I'm glad to hear that you enjoy the videos. I see. I like that he kinda rebels against that label, it's great to have flexibility. Thanks! I think we'll be reviewing a David Tao album soon, which should be fun :)

[@donnyhu8708]

@@spiderhandspnz He actually made a rock album,but the album was not widely accepted,which is a big shame.The album is 69乐章 and hope you can reviewo it someday!

[@IT-9]

I LOVE YOUR REACTION!

[@spiderhandspnz]

THANK YOU, I LOVE YOUR PASSION FOR IT

[@potterblack2662]

I really enjoy your reaction of every David’s track. There are so many musical details that I never pay attention to in your videos. I just hope you could make a reaction video about another David’s song, which is ‘Say goodbye’ or ‘再见以前先说再见’ in Chinese. It is also from David’s first album in 1997. It is one of my favorite song of David but it is relatively unpopular in his first album so I really want to see your reaction of this song. Respect from your bilibili fans.

[@spiderhandspnz]

Hi POTTER BLACK, thank you! Are you gonna come to the David Tao livestream on the 30th? If that song isn't on the album - do you wanna do a fan request for it, during one of our Sunday Livestream? Sincerest respect to y'all on Bilibili, too

[@alicet8879]

May be you can try reaction video for this few songs. SHE-tropical rainforest熱帶雨林 SHE-觸電 Joey容祖兒-小小 陶晶瑩-嗯嘛 陶晶瑩-真的假的 Angela-親愛的那不是愛情 CocoLee李紋-刀馬旦 JolinTsai-布拉格廣場 JolinTsai-海盜 JoilinTsai-就是愛 魏如昀-聽見下雨的聲音 Evonne許慧欣-詩水蛇山神廟 4inlove-命中注定 These are all written by Jay Chou for other singers

[@spiderhandspnz]

Hey Alice T, thanks for your comment! These are a lot of songs, eh? I'm keen to review them - but my schedule is very busy, at the moment. If you went through the SP Fan-Request livestreams, you'd be needing 5 months or so to get through this list - and that's if you get your song on the list every time! You could always consider becoming an SP Patron for $12USD p/month - that way, you get a custom monthly music review of your choice, and it can be any of the songs on this list (as long as they're not over 7 and a half minutes!) Go to the link below to check that out: - patreon.com/spiderhandspnz And have a great day!

[@xiemichael_5404]

I have just reminded David of your comment under his video. I hope he could notice your comment and I believe he is very willing to communicate with you.

[@spiderhandspnz]

Thanks so much, Xie Michael! Truly appreciated. David seems like a lovely dude.

[@tango7.728]

Yes Khalil Fong plzzz! trust me u won’t b disappointed & so worth listening to 🙏🏻

[@spiderhandspnz]

Thank you - added to the list!!!

[@lightweissdnb]

G'day mate, just wanna say that your content is unique and interesting, and i m really enjoy it, keep it up! i saw your bio on fiverr, and glad to know that you were study at Mainz before, i was graduated from Mainz at 2020.

[@spiderhandspnz]

Thanks LightweissDNB ! Keep up the great work, fellow MAINZ alumni!

[@danielli8118]

my top 3 of all time singers are jaychou, leehom wang and david tao, especially " airport 10:30 " by david tao, the best

[@spiderhandspnz]

:) Yeah they're pretty incredible, aren't they?

[@mllin9633]

❤❤❤❤❤

[@TheDongyao]

David Tao's music affected many Chinese R&B musicians deeply include Jay Chow,he is the idol of idols.

[@spiderhandspnz]

That's awesome, mao xh ! Cheers for letting me know :)

[@manbin]

David's songs song have much better live and very interesting band arrangement, please review soul power concert

[@阿贝鲁]

He began to say that your accent is a little like that of New Zealand, because New Zealand, Scotland and Ireland have very different accents Later, he said that the lyrics of Beatles should be woo WAA He said that watching your video can learn a lot of English words that are rarely used Then he said Bruce Watson was a guitarist he often worked with in the United States

[@阿贝鲁]

He said as you say that beyond was more than ten years earlier than them, and there was a kind of bandsound

[@阿贝鲁]

He said you were smart, polite and a little ironic when evaluating the lyrics. He thought it was ok, because translation often makes the lyrics a little funny. Finally, he said he admired you for your professionalism in music evaluation

[@spiderhandspnz]

Thanks 阿贝鲁, for helping me to understand the situation with David Tao! - Yeah, I am indeed a New Zealander! - I see! Thank you! - Yeah, I try to use different words, to show somewhat of a vocabulary :P - I am so stoked that he got to work with Bruce Watson.

[@spiderhandspnz]

Finally, I am so flattered that he admired me for my professionalism. That's probably one of the biggest compliments that I've received in my career. You've made my day! Thank you so much!

[@danger.man.cookingoh864]

The track “Normal Friends” is about being friendzoned.

[@davidchrist7205]

Actually, at least thousands of fans think about it's the TOP 1 song is the 'Just Friend' of David Tao where is a live version at HONG KONG in 2003. You can't miss it!

[@spiderhandspnz]

Ohhh nice, good to know!

[@Lccan1990]

His first album and black tangerine are legendary, i wish you react to whole album

[@spiderhandspnz]

Well, if David (somehow) gets back to me, I'd be happy to review that album, if that's his choice :D

[@JJJ-oi3ge]

React to David Tao's reaction to your review of his song/MV is so meta haha

[@spiderhandspnz]

It was an amazing experience and I am not sure if it was even real

[@ziyangxie8607]

I recommend the Black Tangerine(黑色柳丁) from DT, It's a rock song and I really appreciate it.

[@spiderhandspnz]

Nice! Is that on the upcoming David Tao album review?

[@soulorserenity]

@@spiderhandspnz It's one of my favorite songs literally. Even my sister liked it (plus his other song Ghost) and she rarely likes any songs in other languages not English, Japanese or Korean. So please do a review on those 2 songs by DT. Thanks 😁

[@spiderhandspnz]

​@@soulorserenity Feel free to recommend it during a fan-request livestream, or become an sp patron (via the patreon) and get monthly music reviews! It's all good. I think I've reviewed this album, though.

[@JJJ-oi3ge]

I was a teacher at universities for a period time, when the COVID started the universities decided to switch the course from face-to-face to online and I had to record the course for students who didn't attend or students who want to rewatch it. I never record myself speaking before so it is so weird and embarrassing to watch myself in the video and I noticed that I was speaking to fast and my mouth looks unbalanced when I'm speaking. I feel you pain bro lol

[@spiderhandspnz]

It is sheer terror and I still am not used to it after literal years of doing it Good on you for teaching the future, my friend. Keep up the great work!

我爱陶唧唧😂😂

David Tao reminds me a lot of Baby Face.

[@spiderhandspnz]

I see!

[@haohao8910]

Actually DT has a rock soul😀😀😀

[@zhenwuxu2493]

Thank you. I just wanna recommend the song Airport in 10:30 (飛機場的10:30), which is mentioned by David, Check out 1:21:15. Though not rated as top 5 of David Tao on Spotify, this song is so special for fans. It is the first song of his first album and is often rated as the top R&B song of David, with stunning vocal performance and production. I suppose lots of people are looking forward to your review of it.

[@spiderhandspnz]

Hi Zhenwu Xu - yeah, doing more David Tao would be cool. Should we do "Airport" during a fan request livestream?

[@zhenwuxu2493]

Thank you, Logan. I think you have done it in the most recent fan request livestream and have provided a very good review. Many thanks again for your work and I see you really enjoy DT's music. The first three albums of DT are really good. Hope to see more ablum reviews on DT's music and I know you are not gonna miss it!

[@seven9557]

I’m JAY fans. but I love david too.hope you can do more! I will recommand you david’s first album.and you must hear飛機場的@.

[@spiderhandspnz]

I will definitely do more :) . I will be reviewing one of David Tao's albums on the 30th of April. We could do a fan request review for one of his songs, during a fan request livestream?

[@RB-zk2vo]

you have great taste

[@brucechen6708]

His top 5 songs are definitely not these ones lol , gotta react to some new songs of him :)

[@spiderhandspnz]

Hi Bruce, We'll definitely do more of David in future, for sure!
