On April 25th, the first chapter of Xiong Ziqi’s 2022 concept EP “Good Night & Goodbye” was officially launched. This is the conceptual music work with a complete theme that has been released after three years since the release of the solo album “Full Analysis of Xiong Ziqi” at the end of 2019. The whole EP revolves around the theme of “farewell”. The all-Asian golden song lineup Eric Kwok X Huang Yunren X Xiao Han X Qu Shicong X Li Cong join hands together, so that each song has a story, and each song can tell the listener’s feelings. The story is the goal, and together they have created three original masterpieces about farewell.
The name of this EP “Good Night & Goodbye” is taken from the phrase “Good Night & Goodbye” when saying goodbye to people and good night to the world after a busy day at work. It’s a goodbye for a period of time and hope for the beauty of the next meeting. The EP revolves around the theme of “farewell”. It is Xiong Ziqi’s summary and experience of his emotional experience before the age of 30 before his 30th birthday. Thirty years later, what I think in my heart has gradually become clear, and I will resolutely decide not to regret what needs to be abandoned, and I will take back what I need to cherish in my heart, say goodbye to the past, and then welcome a new beginning. The EP cover uses fingerprints to represent the flow of time, which gradually merges into a galaxy with the passage of time; the planets falling from the sky represent various experiences in the past, floating in the fingerprint galaxy and slowly precipitating until they disappear; the blue and purple symbolizing the night is used as the background. Color, take advantage of the night to say goodbye to the past tenderly.
“Good Night & Goodbye” contains three pieces of music: “As usual” is a farewell to relatives; “Cry and Laugh” is to say goodbye to a lover; “Bump” is to say goodbye to oneself. Despite these partings, life continues as usual; the single “As usual” was written by Xiong Ziqi himself to commemorate the deep feelings with his deceased grandfather. This song even invited Eason Chan’s behind-the-scenes team Eric Kwok to compose the music and Qu Shicong to produce it together. Xiong Ziqi turned the regrets and wishes in his heart into sincere words. When the warm piano prelude sounded, it seemed that the good memories of childhood and grandfather reappeared in front of him. I hope each other can be happy at both ends of time, and we will meet again one day after all.
When time passes by the fingertips, the experiences and stories circulating in the gaps of the fingerprints accompany Xiong Ziqi’s growth all the way. On the screen, he switched to different identities, an actor and a singer. Off-screen, he is also an ordinary family member and lover. Ending the busy day and taking off the image created by the character, in fact, Xiong Ziqi also has many calm and emotional thoughts in his heart. When night falls, the emotional concentration reaches the highest level, review the gains and losses of the previous stage of life, and frankly share those hidden feelings with yourself. Say good night to the world, pin your regrets and thoughts on the night, and look forward to the dawn that shines as usual tomorrow.
Maybe every encounter heralds the beginning of farewell. Say goodbye to the self who is still not satisfied, and start the next wonderful encounter. On the eve of his 30th birthday, Xiong Ziqi tells his story with music to every fan and music fan who has been silently supporting and accompanying him. He also hopes that everyone can find something that resonates with him from his story. melody.
