One hundred and fiftieth chapters ten blockbusters(1/3)
Zhou Ting previously said that his album has nine songs.
Song Yu is a person with mild obsessive-compulsive disorder and wanted to be consistent with his first album, so he chose ten songs.
For ordinary singers, it is undoubtedly a fantasy to write ten hit songs and stuff them into the same album.
Only people with plug-ins enabled can do it.
Song Yu put a lot of thought into selecting these ten songs.
After all, in a sense, it is quite difficult to decide.
There are really many good songs from the past life.
But for the sake of answering the question, Song Yu's thoughts are of two sides: light and dark.
Light, of course, does not refer to some unusually inspirational and bright songs, but rather the kind of relatively normal pop music.
Dark, of course, is not the kind of gloomy and weird song, nor will it make people feel psychologically uncomfortable or want to commit suicide after listening to it, but it is a style.
There are relatively few classic songs in the dark style. He originally wanted to collect five songs, but in the end he felt that there was no need to be so deliberate.
Anyway, Jay Chou’s song will do.
The first song, "Qili Xiang".
A song that Song Yu had decided on a long time ago.
It doesn't need much introduction at all, it is one of Jay Chou's masterpieces and one of the most pinnacle songs.
Of course, everyone has a different answer to the pinnacle song.
Song Yu prefers "Qili Xiang".
This song is included in Jay Chou's 2004 album "Qili Xiang".
Inspired by poet Xi Murong's work "Qili Xiang".
Therefore, the lyrics are quite poetic, and there is no big problem in treating it as a modern poem.
Of course, the composition and arrangement are no less impressive.
It won various awards that year and is definitely an unavoidable song in Chinese music.
The second song, "Blue and White Porcelain".
After so many years since the birth of Chinese style, this song is undoubtedly a mountain that is difficult to surpass.
It is taken from the Ru Kiln porcelain that was very popular during the Song Dynasty.
There are only more than 70 Ru kiln treasures handed down in the world, which can be called a national treasure and extremely precious.
The purest Ru kiln has only one color, which is sky blue.
After Song Yu brought the Chinese style to the world, he actually did not have many works.
"East Wind Breaks" counts as one song, "Xiao Xiao" counts as one song, "Thousands of Baidus" counts as one song, "New Royal Concubine Drunk" counts as half of the song, and there is also the unreleased "Jinghong Side".
Many people don't quite recognize him as the founder of Chinese style.
And this song will silence everyone.
Even Jay Chou would be hard-pressed to produce a Chinese-style song that surpasses "Blue and White Porcelain".
The third song is "Serve the Country with Loyalty".
Originally, Song Yu planned to stay at this year's National Day Gala to perform.
After all, it fits perfectly.
But when he was thinking about the theme song of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", he suddenly thought of this song.
It also fits very well.
"Serving the Country with Loyalty" is about Yue Fei, and "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" contains something related to him, "Wu Mu's Posthumous Letter".
Besides, the biggest evaluation of the protagonist Guo Jing is that he is a great hero who serves the country and the people.
It does not conflict with "Serve the Country with Loyalty".
Song Yu then used this song as the theme song of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" and included it in the album.
With its quality, it does not disappoint.
This song is simply one of the representative works of patriotic songs.
Song Yu was deeply impressed that during military training in high school and college, the instructors would teach "Serving the Country with Loyalty".
The fourth song, "A Laugh in the Sea".
Since there is a theme song, there must be an ending song.
Anyway, Wang Zha has already been played, and Song Yu doesn't care about another pair of Wang Zha.
He chose the Mandarin version of "A Laugh in the Sea", sung by Luo Dayou, Tsui Hark, and Huang Zhan, which is full of the flavor of the world.
The fifth song, "Invisible Wings".
One of Angela Chang's masterpieces, an absolutely inspirational song that has a great influence.
From the melody to the lyrics to the folk song style, the song gives people hope, warmth and stability.
In 2009, it even became a college entrance examination essay topic in a certain place, and he was also the first singer to be used in college entrance examination essays.
This song is actually more suitable for female vocals.
But the male voice is not bad either.
And Song Yu’s fans are called Feathers.
He could definitely say that this song was written for his fans.
In this world, although there are singers who write songs for their fans, there are only a handful of them, and none of them can make it out of the music industry.
Needless to say the quality of "Invisible Wings", Song Yu can definitely attract a wave of fans.
The sixth song, "Blue Lotus".
One of rock's masterpieces and one of Xu Wei's masterpieces.
This song is actually not that rock and roll, more of a ballad.
But it is precisely this lyrical style that makes "Blue Lotus" more shocking and sung.
The seventh song, "Broad Sea and Sky".
The masterpiece of Cantonese songs, and possibly the pinnacle, has unparalleled fame.
Song Yu released a Cantonese song in "The King of Masked Singer" and it sold well, so he wanted to release another song on the album.
After thinking about many Cantonese songs, I finally chose this song.
In addition to its own quality, the thought it expresses is very bright and inspiring.
The eighth song, "In the Name of the Father".
Known as Jay Chou's pinnacle work, it pioneered dark-style songs.
On the day of its release, the song was simultaneously broadcast live on more than 50 radio stations across Asia, and was listened to by a terrifying 800 million people.
A song with an extremely special style.
Even now, it will never be outdated, and it still feels ahead of its time.
The ninth song, "Chapter Seven of Night".
It’s also Jay Chou’s dark style song, but in terms of arrangement, it’s really the best.
The tenth song, "Secret Fragrance".
The theme song of "Golden Dust World" is a model of a song that lasts a lifetime.
The ten songs are actually divided into several styles.
The love songs "Qili Xiang", "Blue and White Porcelain" and "Secret Fragrance".
The more ancient-style "Serving the Country with Loyalty" and "A Laugh in the Sea".
The inspirational "Invisible Wings", "Broad Sea and Sky" and "Blue Lotus".
"In the Name of the Father" and "Chapter Seven of the Night" by Dark Wind.
Generally speaking, an album needs to maintain a unified style, and a hodgepodge is quite taboo.
But the style of Song Yu's first album was very chaotic, so it doesn't matter if he releases another one.
And the most important thing is that these ten songs are put together, and the hodgepodge is irrelevant.
He can now say arrogantly: I, Song Yu, send me money.
Even if he retires on the spot, he will definitely leave his name in the history of Chinese pop music in this world, and he will be at the forefront.
To be honest, Song Yu didn't need to do this.
Taking out half of the ten songs is enough to defeat Zhou Ting.
