Comment and compare the red beans and fleeting time in Wang Fei's works.
Master Lin's original words. My personal favorite poet.
Not to mention Faye Wong. I like every one of her songs.
Red and Stream are the classics of their cooperation.
Faye's voice is ethereal and clear, a little lazy of a little woman.
Brief introduction of poet
Lin is known as the "Imperial Poet" and "Yipin Poet". I believe that friends who like pop music should know this "dream" person. This time, I don't want to dig deep into Lin's history, but just want to make some technical analysis of his work Red (composed by Liu Zhongyan and sung by Wang), so as to get a glimpse of the source of temptation of his work and inspire our creation.
Rhythm and rhythm
The rhyme of this work is very neat and uniform, which is the rhyme of Europe. The key analysis is as follows.
1. I haven't felt the climate of snowflake blooming yet.
When we tremble together, we will know more about gentleness.
The last sentence "I will know gentleness better" can be a clause or a comma. The rhyme of "I will understand better" is "Ai", which is just the opposite of "What is tenderness" (opening and closing). In the following paragraphs, this position has an anti-rhyme-which is one of the reasons why the whole word is so smooth, not boring, so melodious and pure.
2. The most beautiful part is the theme:
Sometimes, sometimes I believe that everything has an end.
Sometimes nothing lasts forever, and we get together and leave.
But sometimes I prefer to stay and not let go.
When the scenery is clear, maybe you will accompany me to see the flowing water.
First of all, apart from the special last sentence, every sentence of this theme has the same structure, and a solid structure is a stage for beautiful changes.
The most distinctive thing here is a few changing "sometimes", which makes the whole context in one go and has a sense of beauty. The first is common, and the second is emphasized. After a breath of "gathering and dispersing", the third "sometimes" is not the original "sometimes", but it should be "both"+in semantics, but we still have the shadow of "sometimes" in phonology. After a "but I" as a turning point (the sound of "yes" in this turning point can also cause some auditory turns), the fourth "sometimes" appeared, but the meaning of "sometimes" here is a new turning point. In the last sentence, the shadow of "sometimes" finally disappeared, because it was a prominent "concluding speech". Think about it, if you put another "sometimes" here, will it be superfluous?
Step 4: Use words
We know that China's ancient poems are so concise that you can remember them in just a few words. How to extract more connotations in a more concise way in an easy-to-understand gap?
Let's take a look at Lin's "invincible words"!
This word uses the following techniques:
A. As the old saying goes, nothing lasts forever; ……
B. Combine new words: * Snowflakes in full bloom * Climate; ……
C. the word state turns to illusion: choose * nostalgia * don't let go; ……
D. polysemy: accompany me to see * a long stream of water *; ……
E. modification and innovation: boil into a lingering wound; ……
Note that Lin rarely uses uncommon words, which is one of the reasons why his words are "popular"-popularity also requires great skills!
5. The rhythm of jumping
Ci has a certain rhythm in phonology, but its ideological rhythm is more important. Here we mainly talk about the rhythm of thought or artistic conception.
Any artistic work needs a sense of jumping, and it is this leap in artistic conception or thought that makes the work control the appreciator and entrust the appreciator's feelings or thoughts.
The rhythm of red beans is slow, and every big jump is obvious. This can be seen more carefully in the title paragraph, from several twists and turns to sublimation:
Sometimes, sometimes I believe that everything has an end.
Sometimes nothing lasts forever, and we get together and leave.
But sometimes I prefer to stay and not let go.
When the scenery is clear, maybe you will accompany me to see the flowing water.
Organization of mood of intransitive verbs
In fact, Lin's lyrics are very easy to shoot on MTV, and there are many scenes in the lyrics (some people say that he is deeply influenced by Zhang Ailing and is good at "dramatic life").
The first two paragraphs in "Red Bean" suddenly bring us to the scene he designed: snowflakes in full bloom, barren sand dunes (typical MTV scene). The desolation of the environment is easily moved by the contrast with affectionate warmth.
In the body3 section, there is a richer flavor:
I didn't boil the red beans into a lingering wound for you.
Then sharing it together will make you understand the sadness of acacia more.
The first floor: boiling soup in snowy winter (as mentioned above, the listener's impression should still be there) (soup is not mentioned here, but when you hear the word "boil", you will definitely think of steaming red bean soup), and the tastes are interdependent-a warm scene.
The second floor: lingering wounds and the sadness of lovesickness-the bitterness of love dissolves in sweetness.
Three layers: original intention: in love, bitterness and injury are inevitable. But I am willing to face it with you; Or only after suffering can we truly appreciate love; ..... just a few words, but there are thousands of meanings, you can slowly taste.
These flavors flow down all the way, full of twists and turns, which is even more memorable. This beautiful sense of rhythm is not something you can feel by careful consideration, but you can get more by careful taste. This is the charm of good works.
Seven. Theme and perspective
A distinctive theme is the main reason why a word finally leaves a distinctive impression.
The theme of red beans is love, which is the most commonly used theme in popular songs. It uses the angle of a affectionate woman, and that kind of delicate thinking about love infects us inadvertently.
Most of Lin's words are about love. I don't know whether it is forced by business needs or he is good at it. But in any case, when Lin found a new theme, he was not only skilled, but also adopted a novel angle. The tragic beauty of red bean classicism is a good example.
Eight. Set the topic and get to the point.
Basically, writing a word is generally to determine the theme first, then write the content, and finally determine the title of the word.
It's important to give a good name to words. If a word doesn't have a good name, it's like painting a dragon without a good eye, which is a great pity.
The name red bean seems too common to attract people at once. But as far as the theme is concerned, it is very relevant. Is there another topic that is more relevant and attractive? It seems unexpected.
Whether it is attractive or not varies from person to person and from time to time. But relevance should be a hard indicator, no matter what kind of lyrics.
time flies
