The 1987-1988 wave of Chinese covers of European and American dance songs originated in the introduction of "Mastodon" and "Horton", and has flourished since "87 Fever", which coincided with the breakdancing craze that has taken the country by storm and has finally come to fruition, with the audiovisual market in the whole country in a blur. The audio-visual market was very lively for a while, the major audio-visual companies have produced and launched this kind of European and American popular dance song tape with Chinese covers.
The prototype of this kind of song was originally a popular hit in Europe and the United States, many of the world's pop music industry masterpieces (such as ABBA; MENGDENGTAKIN's work in the boom has been countless covers), so these works, the rhythm of the strong and fast, melodic, and has a very strong artistic infectious force.
The major audio-visual companies in order to cater to the market, tastes are almost the same, the selection of songs are also basically repeated, we are a hill of beans, starting at the same time, as for the change of the good or bad, the tape sold quickly, the last spell is the singer; orchestration; lyrics. So, this boom has given the country a lot of lyricists and poets the opportunity to make a name for themselves, busy, a lot of words filled with a surprisingly wonderful, or bland and uninformed.
Guangxi national sound and image of the launch of this disk "memories of the girl", can be described as a strong lineup, singing on the Tian Zhen Zhu Hua Zhang Qiang Hu Yue four members of the strength of the female lineup, this time, of course, and did not forget to pull to the compilation tape of the best supporting actor Tu Honggang, who is the Mu Guiying's, the lineup of the lesser of the compilation tapes of the 80's are less than he was busy in it.
This kind of Chinese cover European and American dance song tape lyrics, really a tired job, listening to the strong rhythm, brewing inexplicable feelings hard to the song on the leaning, the general public is difficult to Sheng Ren, well in the A Ding is very facetious appearance, or Guangxi national sound like very give A Ding face let him out of the field, anyway, the words filled in a very rhythmic and philosophical (for example: my heart has been wrapped up in the old dream, but you refuse to take me) My heart has been entangled in old dreams, but you won't take me out of the never-ending maze; my heart is sinking in hopelessness, and only your love can revive my withering love, la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la.
The success or failure of this type of tape is in the orchestration, a reassuring name appeared ------ Xue Ruiguang. I'm very impressed with his orchestration, good use of synthesizers to create a passionate atmosphere, complex and fancy but neat and uncluttered, and there is always the occasional brushstroke embellishments in between. Unexpectedly, the orchestration of Memories of a Young Girl makes extensive use of strings, which is probably why the cover states "Big Disco," a sign of the publisher's confidence.
Tian Zhen played the lead, the opening song "Review" first, sang natural relaxation at will;
The second Zhang Qiang sang the title song "Memories of the Maiden" ("Little Girl Under the Streetlamp" with the same song), infatuated with a piece of deep love;
The third Hu Yue appeared on the scene, which is very difficult to rock singer, the second half of the second half of the chorus part of the voice to be constantly pulled upwards, the voice, but the audience was a little worried. It makes the listener a bit worried, but the good thing is that Hu Yue is, after all, the base of the later Northwest Wind, and it always gets the job done.
Highlights finally appeared in A4, Zhu Hua state of great courage, A Ding flash of inspiration, Xue Ruiguang also passionate, a song "green coral reef" lyrics orchestration singing, beads together, running water.
B-side Tu Honggang's "because" singing is still considered but not too much, B-side is basically the orchestration over the singing of the wind, the last "young boys and girls", the singer on the title of the song is noted as: Xing Lin Du Tuan Zhang Qiang, suspected of Xing Lin and Du Hao's mistakes, but do not have to be too serious test, the song is a chorus, singing and messy, I can't hear who and who.
Not to fear, Xing Lin and Du Hao will be on top of their game on future Northwest Wind and Slang songs.
