Perhaps because love is a kind of instinct, so especially when there is a favorite person, listen to any song is very easy to produce "*** emotion", thought the song is exactly your love, but in fact, there are a lot of songs are just misunderstood, they really are not love songs.
"Suddenly": disaster relief
I believe that this is a lot of people like a song, it is sung warm and soft, become a "KTV safety card" preferred, but you have thought of the song is written in the end what?
The song was written in honor of the 9.21 Earthquake in Taiwan, a massive disaster that claimed the lives of 2,378 people and left more than 12,000 stranded.
"Suddenly, the sky is dark, the world can suddenly be nothing" describes the sad and painful state of people in the darkness after the disaster.
It is said that in order to record the song, the record company rented a cramped studio to create a sense of spatial oppression.
"Am I Your Favorite Person": Remembering the Dead
Later, when Bug was discharged from the army, he was busy with his social life and lost touch with his old man.
Once when Rolling Stone Records invited Little Bug to produce Pan Yueyun's album, he suddenly remembered Mr. Lao, whose favorite song was Pan Yueyun's "Everyday Sky Blue" because his wife's name had the word "cloud" in it.
Little Bug made a good album to visit the old man, only to learn that the old man has long since passed away, recalling the life of many years ago, he wrote the song "Am I the one you love the most" to Pan Yueyun to sing, and also became one of Pan Yueyun's masterpieces.
The Sea: To My SisterOn a very ordinary day in 1986, Zhang Yusheng asked a friend to go out and play, and was not able to participate in his family's picnic barbecue, he received a phone call from his family, which he thought was to ask him if he wanted to go home for dinner, but this time, he guessed wrong, his father on the other end of the phone said that his sister had drowned and was undergoing resuscitation. He rushed to the hospital the first time but was still late.
The death of a loved one is not a small blow to everyone. During that time, while grieving, there was always a voice in his heart that kept reminding him to "hurry up and do it if you like it", otherwise it might be too late.
So he entered competitions with his dream of music, and sang tirelessly, and gradually made a name for himself in the Taiwanese singing scene, but he could never forget his sister, who also loved to sing, and often recalled, "My sister sings better than I do."
Once when Zhang Yusheng was shooting a music video by the sea, he looked at the sea with despondent eyes. This scene was just seen by Chen Dali, so he found composer Chen Xiunan to write a song for Zhang Yusheng and his sister, and that's how "The Sea" was born.
The Price of Love: Sending My Sister
Everyone probably has a favorite cover version of the familiar "The Price of Love", but as the original singer Zhang Aijia's breakout hit, the story behind the song was once rumored to be related to her love affair with Li Zongsheng.
At Lee's concert, Zhang Aika asked, "Have you ever loved me?" Li Zongsheng laughed nervously and boasted about how attractive the talented female singer was, all in reply.
Then he collected his smile and said seriously, "Sister Zhang I'm telling you, this song is one of the few songs I wrote with tears in my eyes, because I wrote it thinking of you."
Years later, Lee said, "The Price of Love was actually written by me to my sister, but it was thought to be a love song. I didn't dare to tell people how to fall in love."
Zhang Aika also responded to questions on stage, saying, "About us, they guessed wrong through and through."
If you were invited to write a song criticizing counterfeit goods for the 3.15 Gala, where would you start?
For Mr. Yan Su, writing directly about "fake fertilizers, fake pesticides," "watches, shoes, and water heaters" into a song is obviously not an artist's act. Instead of being too blunt, it is better to be a bit hazy and turn those fake things into a world of flurry.
One night when I was watching TV, Mr. Yan Su saw a clip of the bodhisattva Vedanta "opening his eyes to the sky", and was suddenly inspired, "Since I can't tell the difference, let me borrow a pair of eyes.
So the "flowers in the fog, the moon in the water" depicts not the poetry of the scenery or difficult to penetrate the ambiguity, but the real "fake songs".
In fact, no matter what the meaning of a song itself, what we listen to is just our own story. What else do you know about songs that have been mistaken for love songs?
