The decade of the Divine Comedy has seen too many short-lived hits and even more that have gone up in smoke. But this year, netizens selected the 10 network love songs are the most representative, their ability to be sung more widely, the ability to influence more, more popularity, can be called the divine song of the divine song.
This year's most popular song is not "Little Apple", in the streets and alleys, your ears will always inadvertently hear this mouthful of songs. Singer Wang Rong's "Chicken Chicken Chicken" music video recently came out, its clothes exposed, pulling the voice with the hen next to the blind call "chicken chicken chicken chicken". The music video of the singer Wang Rong's "Chicken Chicken Chicken" was recently released. It is this kind of "divine song" that has aroused a lot of scolding, and it is really deserved.
Previously, when it comes to the "Divine Comedy", the first thing that comes to mind is the Italian poet Dante's masterpiece. And now a mention of the "divine song", people's minds flashed to the "onion flinging song", "apprehensive", "Gangnam Style" and other songs of the melody. Earlier in the year, network songs like "Mice Love Rice" and "Two Butterflies" opened the road to the prevalence of "Divine Comedy", and in 2010, a song by the German singer Gong Linna, "Disturbed", came out of nowhere, with the words, "Uh, ah, ah, ah, yo...". ..." and other unintelligible lyrics, with Gong Linna's rich expression, a popular network, and triggered many celebrities to imitate. After that, the "Golden Rod" "Fahai you do not understand love" is also because of too "avant-garde" interpretation and is regarded as a "divine song".
Not long ago, another Internet song, "Chicken Beep Beep," was recognized as a new generation of "sacred song" because of its simple and repetitive melody and lyrics. It is said that this recently popular "Chicken Beep" is adapted from an Italian song, recently by the "Xiao Xiao M" from Taiwan's super cute rendition, so that this song is once again hot on the Internet. In the video, the singer Xiao Xiao M imitates the cries of chickens, hens, roosters, turkeys, pigeons, goats, sheep and other animals, while dancing with the lyrics with a big smile on his face, making the whole scene very joyful.
Many musicians in the current music industry are trying to attract attention by creating bizarre "sacred songs". It's probably a time to look at the ugly rather than the beautiful. With thousands of songs released on the Internet, "sacred songs" that take the vulgar and ugly route often stand out. The problem is that these tactics are just quick fixes that don't improve the quality of the music. The fact that more and more big-name singers are getting involved in "sacred songs" can be seen as a sign that the music industry is beginning to degenerate. The logic is obvious: as long as it attracts attention and creates buzz, it doesn't matter if it's vulgar to the point of being explicit. For example, the Chopstick Brothers' "Little Apple" was a hit for a while, but eventually it could not escape the fate of being a square dance accompaniment, which is contrary to its original purpose of attracting young people. Another example is Wang Rong's initial songs, which were very artistic and literary, but in recent years have become more and more "mouthfuls" and "nervous", making it difficult for people to listen to them over and over again.
Music has its sacred songs, TV has its thunder dramas, and movies have their thunder movies ...... In literary and artistic creation, similar phenomena are common, but their artistic life is ultimately short-lived and difficult to sustain. In recent years, from the Phoenix Legend's "the most dazzling national wind" to Gong Lina's "apprehensive" to the Chopsticks Brothers' "Little Apple", the word "Shenqu" has become familiar from strange, and has become a musical phenomenon that can not be ignored at the moment. They are always in the limelight for a short period of time, but hardly become true classics. Different disciplines have different explanations for the popularity of "sacred songs". Scientific theory has "earworm", for example, the University of Cincinnati marketing professor James Kelaris that those high in the top of the charts of the song has a strong rhythm, and the theme of the music continues to appear week after week, like a small worm crawling into the brain. There is also the sociological interpretation, which sees "sacred songs" as a product of their time and a normal phenomenon of the multimedia age. The commercial interpretation is that the popularity of a "sacred song" will bring a lot of commercial returns.
To be honest, the occasional appearance of one or two songs, as a representative of multiculturalism can be tolerated, but when more and more singers chose this shortcut, the situation is somewhat miserable. Divine Comedy is popular, there are objective conditions for its existence, but now this trend is getting more and more intense, or let a person some concern. The proliferation of "sacred songs" is just a cynical and self-deprecating game of self-abuse. Similar art forms may initially have their own significance, dissolving the mainstream culture of prudishness and pretentiousness. But with the proliferation of spoofs and self-complications, the negative effects of "sacred music" have been exposed, which ridicules or disregards all valuable and elegant music and culture, and holds nihilism and cynicism in its heart, even taking ignorance and shamelessness as a label. Especially, in the high-level has clearly stated that "vulgarity is not vulgarity, simple sensory entertainment is not the same as spiritual happiness" in the new context, the so-called "Divine Comedy", at best, a burst of noise, the garbage heap will be their final destination. Although the success of the Divine Comedy is not difficult to copy, but really have a long-term vision of the musicians, or can not be too kitsch, "Divine Comedy" can not be completely no lower limit, it must have a certain aesthetic value in order to have vitality.
