"My Sky"

"Waiting for You to Begin"

These are two songs temporarily selected by Ye Weiyang that are related to "Youth in Progress".

In addition, the two songs "Chasing Dreams and Childhood Heart" and "Sweet" that were originally planned to be added, which happened to form a complete themed story.

First, "My Sky", which means that a teenager has grown into a young man and is eager to prove that he has grown up and is not a child anymore.

Then there is "Chasing Dreams and Child Heart", which expresses the youthful state of a young man who is brave enough to pursue his dreams and dares to pursue his dreams.

Then there is something that will definitely happen during puberty.

Secret love.

It just so happens that the theme of the song "Waiting for You to Get Off" is also in line with the theme of the song "Waiting for You".

Then there was a "Sweet" love story I had in my youth.

This is indeed very "youth is in progress", and every song is related to puberty.

But, after thinking about it, there is still one song left!

How could there be only "Sweet" in adolescence?

That's definitely a matter of breaking, so that the audience can actually feel immersive.

To be honest, can one of the ten couples get married if they are in love between the ages of sixteen and seventeen?

Just like "The Girl We Chased in Those Years", "You, My Deskmate", and "Left Ear".

Although these dramas are a little bit bloody, everyone's youth is not so "unforgettable", there are no abortions, no car accidents, and no pornography, gambling, and drugs.

But everyone's results are almost the same.

Most people, in their youth, love in the end is not enough, and they end up being a stranger.

So, this album is still short of the last song to commemorate this youthful love!

And this kind of song is so easy to choose!

"Those Years", "Little Luck", "To Youth", "Soon of the Year", each song is a commemoration of love in youth. The people singing in each song are heartfelt and can resonate with thousands of people.

And they all have one common feature, that is, these songs are all the theme songs of youth romance films...

However, the above songs are not suitable for band performances.

As for the songs of youth, most of them are broken guitars, sitting alone, humming gently, which makes it a tribute to youth.

The band is not suitable for such a very sad song, whether it is "Those Years", "Little Luck" or "Soon of the Year".

Although most of the interlude parts in these songs are mixed with multiple instruments, the overall style is still lyrical and popular, which is really not suitable for the band.

Ye Weiyang tossed and turned on the bed, thinking about what to do with the last title song.

He carefully flirted through his past memories in his mind, and suddenly a flash of inspiration came to sit up from the bed.

"The Wind Rises" is good!

This song is actually very suitable for the band!

In his memory, there are actually many versions of "The Wind Rises"

There are those sung by Zhou Shen, those sung by JJ Lin, and those sung by Wu Qingfeng.

Each version has its own advantages, its own advantages, and even its own characteristics, which are difficult to imitate.

For example, Zhou Shen’s ethereal voice, JJ Lin’s singing skills that instantly killed the audience, and Wu Qingfeng’s special emotional interpretation method.

However, none of the above versions are Ye Weiyang's choice.

Because these versions of the arrangement are not suitable for band performance.

Zhou Shen's version of "The Wind Rises" is arranged in a larger way closer to electronic music, and uses a lot of electronic sounds. Although there are drum beats, it weakens the presence of the guitar.

JJ Lin's version of "The Wind Rises" is even more distinctive. It mainly uses the piano as the melody part. It introduces a lot of string music, small and medium cello, and more than one group, forming the low and medium and high notes, adding a lot of layers, but it really has nothing to do with the band.

The same is true for Wu Qingfeng's version. Even the string orchestra is more important than JJ Lin's version. It is almost arranged entirely with strings and piano. Although there are drum beats, the drum beats are actually used to grasp the rhythm, not the main melody.

If this song is a solo single by Ye Weiyang, you can choose the arrangement of the above versions, but if you consider the team, it is not suitable.

Fortunately, the original song that traces the origin of the song "The Wind Rises" is "ヤキモチ (Jealous)" by the famous Japanese singer Yu Takahashi.

Although Yuki Takahashi's original version also starts with a piano solo in the arrangement part of the prelude, drums and electric guitar are added from 11 seconds of the song.

Overall, it is a very band arrangement method, including drums, guitars, and bass, with rich levels, and there is also a solo show of electric guitars, which is simply very bandlike!

The arrangement method of the original song "ヤキモチ (Jealous)" that focuses on drums and electric guitars is actually a slow-shaking arrangement, but it is a relatively localized slow-shaking arrangement.

The earliest one was to buy chili, and use coupons and friend Miguo to re-write the lyrics and create "The Wind Rises" based on the song "ヤキモチ (Jealous)", and the original song used was the version of Takahashi Yu.

It was only later that the song was removed from the shelves because it was not copyrighted, and Wu Qingfeng re-made a more grand and more magnificent arrangement, which included so many subsequent versions of "The Wind Rises".

Zhou Shen, JJ Lin and various other versions of "The Wind Rising" are adapted from Wu Qingfeng's version of the arrangement. This arrangement is more suitable for solos, with a more magnificent momentum. The string orchestra can further deepen the ethereal inspiration of "The Wind Rising" that this song wants to give people.

It is actually difficult to say which one is better or worse in the arrangement of these two versions. It is just two different styles, two different interpretations and understandings.

It is more inclined to slow shaking, with a bit of rock and roll, but not heavy, and the degree is just right.

Combined with the lyrics of "The Wind Rises", there will be a feeling of just experiencing a relationship. Everyone wants you to let go with ease, but they are still a little unwilling to give up. They say they give up, but their hearts are full of reluctance and unwillingness.

Wu Qingfeng's piano string version is more like the experience of many things and many relationships that have been through many relationships. People who have been through many relationships remembered this relationship. After savoring it, they found that only the feeling of freedom and relief remained.

The original arrangement is singing so that it can't be put away.

But what Wu Qingfeng sang was to let go.

Maybe it was because the original Japanese lyrics of the song "ヤキモチ (Jealous)" were written from the perspective of a boy, writing about his jealous and cute girlfriend.

Therefore, the arrangement has the taste of attachment that "although I am jealous, I am reluctant to let go, I just pretend and hope you can coax me."

The Wu Qingfeng version is based on the lyrics of "The Wind Rises", and then combined with Wu Qingfeng's own voice, creating this kind of free and relaxed taste.

From the perspective of arrangement alone.

As a group of young young people who are 200, the band is obviously more suitable for "not letting go" than letting go and letting go.

After all, young people want to seize everything and are unwilling to let go.

How did that sentence say it?

Catching the cicada and thinking that it can catch the summer is not the mentality that young people should have!

The kind of relief and freedom in Wu Qingfeng's version that sees through the world should be the emotions that only an uncle in his thirties or forties will have.
