  • Lo Ta-yu (Chinese: 羅大佑; pinyin: Luó Dàyòu; born 20 July 1954), also known as Luo Dayou and Law Tai-yau, is a Taiwanese singer and songwriter. During the 1980s, Lo became one of the most influential Mandopop singer-songwriters with his melodic lyrics and love songs, and his witty social and political commentary that he infused in his more political songs, often to the point that some of his songs were suppressed in Taiwan and Mainland China during the 1980s. He is recognized as a cultural icon in Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Mainland China. Stylistically, Lo defies classification, though his contribution to the Taiwan campus folk song genre was most significant. His early music in particular shows strong folk roots, and many of his songs tap into native Taiwanese cultural influences. Some songs are reminiscent of 1950s American diner and soda shop rock, and others exhibit a 1970s lounge lizard growl. What captured the hearts of a generation, however, were his lyrics, touching on issues of life, attitudes, social responsibility, and the political problems of both Chinese Mainland and Taiwan with an underhandedly critical strain of dark humor. The lyrical style is not particularly artsy or complex, but rather conversational; the cleverness comes in the meaning, not how the words are put together. (en)

  • Lo Ta-yu (cinese tradizionale: 羅大佑; pinyin: Luó Dàyòu; Taipei, 20 luglio 1954) è un cantautore taiwanese.Conosciuto anche come Luo Dayou, durante gli anni '80 ha rivoluzionato la musica pop e rock cinese con i suoi testi melodici, le sue canzoni d'amore, e i commenti brillanti sulla situazione sociale e politica dell'epoca, spesso fino al punto che alcune delle sue canzoni sono state soppresse tanto a Taiwan quanto in Cina. È riconosciuto come una delle icone culturali più importanti di Taiwan, Hong Kong e Cina. Stilisticamente, Lo Ta-yu preferisce non avere delle classificazioni. La sua musica delle origini mostrava forti radici folkloristiche, e molte delle sue canzoni attingevano alle influenze delle culture dei nativi taiwanesi. Alcune canzoni richiamano alla mente il rockabilly americano degli anni '50, altre rimandano allo stile vagabondo degli anni '70. Ciò che ha catturato i cuori di un'intera generazione, tuttavia, sono stati i suoi testi, che toccavano argomenti di vita quotidiana, atteggiamenti, responsabilità sociale, e problemi politici sia della Cina che di Taiwan con un flusso critico nascosto di senso dell'umorismo oscuro. Lo stile dei testi non è particolarmente artistico o complesso, ma piuttosto convenzionale; la maestria si nota nel significato, non nel modo in cui le parole sono messe insieme. (it)
  • 羅大佑(台灣話 : Lô Tāi-iū,1954年7月20日-),出生於台灣台北市,苗栗縣客家人,二十世紀華語流行音樂詞曲作家、男歌手、電影配樂、編曲、作家、醫師。1976年羅大佑進入樂壇,從此在流行、搖滾、民謠等音樂流派中,屢屢創新,影響了台灣、中國大陸、香港等華語地區幾代音樂人如郑智化,高晓松,陶喆,许巍,汪峰等的創作。羅大佑的作品将搖滾与東方美學相結合,富於批判和社會啟蒙意識及大時代感,堪称華語樂壇的丰碑。羅大佑素常將流行音樂與文學相融合,使流行音樂成為與電影、文學、古典音樂平等的藝術形式。他的音樂風格多變,意境廣闊,歌詞文學性高且兼具批判性,被廣泛認為是華語流行音樂與台灣音樂界的重量級人物。 (zh)
