Hey,大家好,這個我是David, 00:15
然後今天我們現在我們的MV的拍攝現場。 00:17
站在我的右邊是 00:21
Christina 00:23
Hello,大家好。 00:24
這個莫韻文,我覺得這次很開心的原因是因為 00:26
我很 00:29
00:29
沒有拍MV是有女主角。 00:30
就是有演戲的這種, 00:33
而且是對戲, 00:35
我覺得這次也是我第一次大量在MV裡面有用到很多的CG, 00:37
比如說我們今天還要掉外爾,對,我們還有掉外爾,有飛起來。 00:41
你之前有掉過嗎? 00:46
有,以前拍廣告的時候比較常拍,應該我應該有十年沒有拍, 00:48
沒有掉過了。 00:51
我也是掉過一次。 00:52
也是在一個MV裡面,然後 00:53
可是我覺得這次掉的那個感覺又不太一樣, 00:55
因為這次是我一個人,這次是我們兩個人一起。 01:00
有人跟你一起一起同受苦。 01:02
對,同受苦。 01:04
哇~要摔倒了。 01:07
導演,謝謝David老師提供精彩的花絮。 01:14
這個這個會影響男人的生育。 01:19
這首歌叫星星,應該說是MV的故事,應該是在講 01:23
兩個很寂寞的人,雖然可能在他們的各自的領域他們成功,可是他們找不到愛情。 01:27
可是呢有時候當兩個人突然在一個right time, 01:33
at the right moment 01:36
碰撞在一起,就擦出 01:38
這個叫命運。 01:40
對對命運,我們這次其實在一個DVD店。 01:41
然後你知道導演讓我演的角色是什麼? 01:46
你是什麼? 01:48
其實我就跟他講說,我我要演個心理醫生。 01:48
OK, 01:52
但當然我們兩個都很喜歡電影嘛,所以我們就在一個 01:53
心理醫生其實makes sense。 01:56
對對對,那我看的電影跟你看的電影不太一樣。 01:57
你剛剛跟我講說你很喜歡看Loki。 02:01
沒。 02:04
就是漫威,漫威的。 02:04
我想說這個是很男生,很野們。 02:06
不會啊,我覺得現在的其實很多的戲劇,其實它的,它講的東西越來越廣泛。 02:10
然後還有很多一些邏輯性的東西,其實大家都是喜歡看的。 02:16
是的是的。 02:20
其實就跟我們今天的MV有一點點的雷同,我覺得,就是它不是只是一個愛情故事,雖然它是一首愛情的歌,它是首情歌, 02:21
但是它是穿插了一些想像力在裡面,穿插了一些你可以幾乎說是平行世界在裡面, 02:30
所以我覺得其實是很符合現在年輕人喜歡的一種邏輯。 02:37
反正我覺得這次真的很開心,因為, 02:41
可以說已經快有 02:44
10年 02:47
沒有有這麼大的一個製作跟這樣子的一個一個一個計劃要去拍, 02:48
所以我真的非常的榮幸,所以謝謝你,感謝你,希望我們以後還可以有 02:55
機會,或許星星如果有下集,哦,續集的時候, 03:00
也會邀請你。 03:05
那這次不一定會找那個同樣導演。 03:07
就沒那個導演。 03:09
對對對,不對走對,我們找恩伯。 03:09
沒走。 03:11
Thank you. 03:15
謝謝大家。 03:15

Lyrics & Translation

Immerse yourself in David Tao's heartfelt R&B ballad, 'Shining Star' (星心), a beautiful journey through classic 80s sounds and universal themes of love and connection. Learning the Mandarin lyrics will not only introduce you to poetic expressions of longing and finding your soulmate, but also to the rich cultural nuances in Mandopop's 'Godfather' David Tao's unique blend of Eastern and Western musical styles.

[English]
Hey, everyone, this is David,
and today we're on set filming the music video.
Standing on my right is
Christina,
Hello, everyone.
I'm really happy this time because
it's been a long time since I shot a music video with a female lead.
Someone acting in a scene,
and actually acting opposite someone else,
and working with dialogue,
Plus, this is the first time I've used a lot of CGI in a music video.
For example, today we’re also falling from above, yes, we’re falling, and flying up in the air.
Have you ever fallen before?
Yes, I’ve done it before, mostly in commercials. I think it’s been about ten years since I last fell,
so I hadn’t fallen in a while.
I've only fallen once too.
And it was in a music video,
but I think this time’s fall felt a bit different,
because I was alone this time, but this time we did it together.
Someone to suffer with you.
That's right, suffering together.
Whoa—you're about to fall!
Director, thanks to Teacher David for the exciting behind-the-scenes.
This could affect a man’s fertility.
This song is called "Star," and I guess the story in the music video is about
two lonely people. Even though they’re successful in their own fields,
they can't find love.
But sometimes, when two people suddenly meet at the right time,
at the perfect moment,
they collide,
and it's like fate.
Exactly, fate. We shot this in a DVD store.
And do you know what role the director asked me to play?
What?
這個叫命運。
對對命運,我們這次其實在一個DVD店。
然後你知道導演讓我演的角色是什麼?
Actually, I told him I wanted to play a psychologist.
其實我就跟他講說,我我要演個心理醫生。
Okay,
But of course, we both love movies, so it made sense.
Playing a psychologist actually makes sense.
My movie tastes are a little different from yours.
You just told me you really like Loki.
No,
it’s Marvel, Marvel movies.
I think that’s very masculine, very bold.
No way. I think modern dramas now are getting broader in their themes.
And they include a lot of logical, thought-provoking stuff, which many people enjoy.
Exactly.
It’s similar to our MV today, I think. It’s not just a love story—despite being a love song,
it’s also a love ballad,
but it’s sprinkled with imagination and almost features parallel worlds.
So I think it really aligns with what young people like today.
Honestly, I’m really happy this time because,
it’s almost been
10 years
since we’ve had such a big production and plan to shoot a music video.
I feel very honored. Thank you, and I hope we have more chances in the future.
Maybe if there’s a sequel to "Star," when it comes out,
you’ll be invited too.
And maybe not the same director this time.
Yeah, not that director.
That’s right, that’s right, we’ll look for Enbo.
Not Enbo.
Thank you all.
