"I like you slowly, remember you slowly, and accompany you to the old age slowly."
-"I like you slowly"
This song was originally sung by Karen Mok and composed by Ronghao Li.
In cooperation again and again, Karen Mok appreciated Ronghao Li's musical talent more and more, and invited Ronghao Li to be her guitarist in her album "Be there or be square". In Ronghao Li's Journey to an Ideal World, Karen Mok invited songs on the spot and said that he could write freely without restriction. With Karen Mok's trust and expectation, a warm, peaceful and tearful song was born.
"Obviously, the music is warm, the voice is gentle, the story is warm, and the lyrics are plain and unpretentious. After listening to them, they couldn't stop blushing and salty. " On Zhihu, a bosom friend said.
Are we asking too much? Sweetness comes so fast, romance comes so fast, and so do confusion, loss and helplessness. Perhaps "slowly" is the best choice. Let beautiful stories and touching scenes be staged slowly. ...
For this song, here are two versions of the recommendation. One is Karen Mok's original singing, and the other is Zhao Jiahao's cover in The Voice of China.
Look at the original first.
Although this song was written by Ronghao Li, many people think it is most appropriate for Karen Mok to sing it.
Why do you say that? Let me start with the idea of this song. "I like you gradually", which is often not in line with the inner world of young people in Seeds of Love. When we first taste love, we are often eager to pursue the washing and baptism brought by love, and we can't hold ourselves in endless sweetness. How can we rationally consider "slowing down"? Only those who have exhausted their efforts in cheap emotional impulses can experience slow but calm love. Karen Mok, that's right.
Her emotional experience is quite complicated. After several twists and turns, she will join hands with her beloved for life. Such a complicated love experience gave her a calm mind and plain strength. She can best sing the simple and lasting sweetness, mellow and long-lasting friendship in the song. Like red wine, it is smooth and smooth, which makes people slowly intoxicated while enjoying it.
This seems to be a song without a prelude. From the first second, Karen Mok's elegant voice sounded before the tune.
"Books always like to write surprise nights ..." The first paragraph describes the plot of the heroine's reading, which is a story in a story and is "illusory". Dream in general, causing infinite reverie. In fact, I think this dreamy first paragraph is the prelude to the song.
The role of the prelude is to render an atmosphere and lay the emotional tone of the song. And such an ethereal first paragraph opens a dreamlike, real and virtual picture. In the evening, riding a bike, wearing white clothes, boys and girls talk. I can't tell whether it's true or a dream, but it feels so warm.
Four "duo" and one "get together well and part well", the story is summarized in such beautiful words. Ronghao Li's skills began to show up here.
"You liked kissing you just now, didn't you?" From this sentence, the lyrics turned to the description of "reality". Under the first-person narration, the life of the hero and heroine is as warm as before. As they got closer, the boy slowly talked about his hometown ... Everything in the picture was so peaceful and beautiful under the gentle and warm tune and the pure and mellow narrative of Karen Mok.
At the beginning of the chorus, the rhythm is accelerated, but in the switching of warm pictures, the passage of time is imperceptible. Every evening, we see boys and girls getting closer and getting older, from the beginning to holding hands. Under the magnificent sunset, time seems eternal here.
"Because slowness is the best reason." It is an experience accumulated from an unforgettable past.
The second part is the description of various life details, and we further understand the "slow" life and love of boys and girls. Through the girl's tone, we can see how two people enjoy every minute in love and harmony.
Lovely girls will spoil the boy, let him choose dessert after dinner, let him sleep on the right side of the bed, and let him take himself to the beach for the last time. But she is not willful. She has quietly prepared everything for the trip. After getting up in the morning, she couldn't bear to wake him up, so she had to watch him sleep and wait for him to get up.
The small fragments of life are so warm and romantic, not deliberately ambiguous, but sweet and comfortable, living a fascinating life. This is what love looks like, right?
In this world, I love three things.
The sun, the moon and you.
The sun in the morning, the moon at night, and you forever.
However, at the end of the lyrics, the dreamlike first sentence appeared quietly.
"Books always like to write about surprise nights."
Dreams and reality once again blur the boundaries and distinguish between unreal. I'll let you guess
If Karen Mok's voice is rich red wine, then Zhao Jiahao's version is a cup of coffee with moderate sweetness and moderate heat and cold. The entrance warms the tip of the tongue, and the sweetness of coffee lingers in the mouth for a long time. Zhao Jiahao interpreted the romance of the song with his unique articulation and created that wonderful night.
Compared with Karen Mok's version, Zhao Jiahao's singing skills have about four changes:
[If! First, [endif] added a melodious and soothing prelude, which changed the creative thinking of the original song.
[If! Second, [endif] deleted the paragraph "I kissed you just now". After all, this song is sung by a male voice, and the girl's tone is reasonable.
[If! Third, [endif] is also the inspiration for the whole song. In the second paragraph, between the main song and the chorus, the children's song "Insects fly" was inserted:
"The dark sky hangs low, and bright stars fly with insects. Who are you missing? "
"The stars in the sky shed tears, the roses on the ground wither, and the cold wind blows, as long as you are with me."
Under the warm singing of nursery rhymes, the stars have shifted and the years have passed, which has been vividly interpreted.
I think this poetic adaptation must come from the hand of Li Jian, Zhao Jiahao's mentor and music poet in The Voice of China.
As a result, the artistic conception of the song has been further broadened, and the meaning of "eternal love" has also been more clearly displayed.
[If! SupportLists] Fourth, [endif] deleted the sentence "Books always write surprise nights" at the end of the original song, and gave a definite happy ending, which is also Li Jian's style.
"Slowly Like You", whether it is Karen Mok's leisurely female version or Zhao Jiahao's leisurely male version, is picturesque and fascinating, and it is a masterpiece worthy of careful taste.
Thanks to Karen Mok's insight and Ronghao Li's talent.
"shh! Don't be impatient, I want to like you slowly. "
