Darren star in Jay Chou MV It Rains All Night
Jay Chou directed and starred in the MV for his new song "It Rains All Night", but he's only playing the role of the story teller. He's given the male lead role to Darren from The Drifters, to star in a love story in this life and the past life. However, he didn't let his buddy taste the "sweetness", the intimate scene with the female lead was completed by using angles.
In Jay Chou's new song, from the lyrics, the melody to the scenes in the MV, he goes from the present to the 20s and 30s, he went from playing the cello to playing the erhu wearing a gown. The big crew went to 100 year old Taipei Guest House to get shots. His singing went from R&B to the singing found in Beijing Opera; he subtly joins together the love from the past to the present.
In the MV Darren sees his beloved female lead marry someone else, and he couldn't stop crying. It was his first time filming a crying scene, he cried very miserably. He couldn't stop crying even after Jay Chou shouted "cut". Jay Chou said: "He really knows how to act, a man crying for love, it really moves me!" Jay Chou's singing and signing session for his album "The Era" will be in Gaoxiong, Taichung on the 22nd, and on the 23rd he'll be at Shimen in Taipei.
