淚雨夜

After the much praised first single ("The Wind Blows On") from his upcoming album, Haysen is back with a heartfelt Cantonese ballad, "A Night of Raining Tears". Known for his sharp rap delivery, the Hong Kong-born artist took a vulnerable, tender step toward reclaiming his roots in Cantonese melodies, showcasing a hidden side of him that’s more intimate and raw. The inspiration for "A Night of Raining Tears" comes straight from the soul of early 2000s Hong Kong cinema and pop songs—a time when music and film were deeply intertwined. The track is steeped in the story of a protagonist wrestling with the weight of a broken heart. It’s a journey through the painful nostalgia of lost love, where the artist opens up about the emotional wreckage of letting go and confronting his own vulnerability. The arrangement kicks off with a cinematic piano, sweeping strings, and the sound of crashing waves—setting the tone for a poignant, bittersweet reflection. As the song progresses, the electric guitar weaves through the emotional turmoil, giving voice to the tenderness in Haysen’s delivery. For an artist whose previous music rarely leaves room for this much vulnerability, the ballad creates a space where he pours out the unsaid, like writing a letter to an old flame. The music video, directed by the acclaimed Hong Kong collective Wavyboys, delicately captures this emotional landscape. Shot on the serene Upper Changsha Beach, the imagery of the waves—echoing the tears in the lyrics—wraps around Haysen, creating a visual that mirrors the gentle, yet sorrowful cadence of his voice. The minimalist, oil-painting-like aesthetic of the video gently amplifies the rawness of the track, with each frame capturing the weight of every breath and confession. 監制 Producer: 鄭景曦 Haysen Cheng 作詞 Lyrics: 鄭景曦 Haysen Cheng, 劉翔宇 Miles Liu 作曲 Composer: 鄭景曦 Haysen Cheng, 餘培源 Yu Peiyuan 編曲 Arrangement: 餘培源 Yu Peiyuan
