They are locally regarded as the best rock band after Beyond, a popular rock band that is based in Hong Kong. Mayday's songs resonate greatly with many Taiwanese youths who can identify with their themes of love, world peace and growing up. They are also influenced by The Beatles, which is their favourite group whom they aspire to be like.
Their music has the unique ability to bring the listener to his feet or move the listener to tears. They sing songs mostly in Taiwanese and Chinese although some fans profess that their Taiwanese songs are more emotional and touching. Unlike some rock bands, they also project a clean and healthy image and have never been seen smashing musical instruments willfully, drinking or gambling. Mayday represent the zeitgeist of the Taiwanese and Chinese youth who identify with the band's themes of innocence, childhood, dreams, aspirations, loneliness and determination. At the same time, the band's unique outlook on life has attracted many fans who find their views refreshing.
人生海海
五月天 Lyrics

編曲:五月天
有一天 我在想 我到底 算是個什麼東西
還是我 會不會 根本就不算東西
天天都漫無目的 偏偏又想要證明 真理
別人從屁股放屁 我卻每天每天的說要革命
就算是這個世界 把我拋棄 而至少快樂傷心我自己決定
所以我說 就讓它去 我知道潮落之後一定有潮起 有什麼了不起
常常我 豁出去 拼了命 走過卻沒有痕跡
可是我 從不怕 挖出我火熱的心
手上有一個硬幣 反面就決定放棄 嗝屁
但是啊在我心底 卻完完全全不想放棄
就算是這個世界 把我拋棄 而至少快樂傷心我自己決定
所以我說 就讓它去 我知道潮落之後一定有潮起 有什麼了不起
常常我 閉上眼睛 聽到了海的呼吸 是你
溫柔的藍色潮汐 告訴我沒有關係
就算真的這個世界 把我拋棄 而至少快樂傷心我自己決定
所以我說 就讓它去 我知道潮落之後一定有潮起 我不能忘記
無論是我的明天 要去哪裡 而至少快樂傷心我自己決定
所以我說 就讓他去 我知道潮落之後一定有潮起有什麼了不起
有什麼了不起
啦...啦..啦...
啦...啦..啦...
The song "人生海海" by 五月天 (Mayday) speaks about the uncertainties and challenges of life. The lyrics convey a sense of questioning one's identity and purpose, and the struggle to find meaning in everyday life. The opening line "有一天我在想我到底算是个什么东西" (One day I was thinking, what exactly am I?) sets the tone for the rest of the song. The singer contemplates whether they even matter in the grand scheme of things and questions their worth.
Throughout the song, the lyrics touch on various themes such as the pursuit of truth, the fear of failure, and the power of self-determination. The chorus, "就让它去 我知道潮落之后一定有潮起 有什么了不起" (Let it go, I know there will be another tide after the ebb, what's the big deal) emphasizes the idea of resilience and the importance of moving on from difficult situations.
Overall, "人生海海" is a reflective and introspective song that encourages listeners to embrace the ups and downs of life and find their own sense of purpose.

原來已經事隔一年了,今晚再次回到這裡聽 這首歌
剛看到自己寫著2014.6.18的留言
自己也嚇了一跳
因為發生了一些事情 我對我的未來充滿著茫然
所以就想到了 這首歌
我知道潮落之後 一定有潮起 有什麼了不起
不知不覺 聽著聽著竟然落淚了
音樂真的是史上最偉大的發明
它就像家,永遠都在那裡
等到妳哪一天 遇到不順心的事情
就可以打開它 讓它安慰妳不安的心
謝謝五月天:)

套一句一直流傳的:人死留名,豹死留皮,五月天留的是傳奇。 五月天不管從音樂、他們的夢想、給我們的動力、 每每都可以深植人心。 或許有些人不是五迷,但是聽完他們的歌,也會覺得放鬆許多。 我想說的是、身為五迷,我、超、幸、福!

好簡單的歌詞,簡單到像國中作文課的作文內容(還是叛逆小屁孩寫的) 但聽了卻能讓人大大的呼出一口心中的怨氣,提起勇氣繼續往前!!!
