There is such a song that has touched many people. Countless people heard their past and youth from this song when they were lost and confused. The song is Old Boy.
At the mention of this song, many people must have already started to miss their youth. Indeed, the lyrics of this song are very profound: "Dreams are always out of reach, should we give up? Flowers bloom and fall. Where are you in spring? Youth is like running water. It's too late to say goodbye, leaving only numbness. I don't have the blood of the year ......" Every time I hear the lyrics of this song, my heart is always filled with images from the past. There used to be a lot of people in the kTV hysterically singing this song and crying in pain!
After this "Old Boy", the Chopstick Brothers have another song that is particularly tear-jerking, and that's "Daddy", which also has very touching lyrics. "Time is slower, don't let you grow old again, I'm willing to use everything to stay for you for a long time ......" Many people who hear the Chopsticks Brothers singing "Father" see the strong image of their father in front of their eyes. When they think that their father has done this for us without regret. The Chopsticks Brothers group won a lot of fans because of these two songs, and many felt that finally someone in the music world could sing songs with soul instead of those little love songs without moans and groans.
But it didn't take long for the Chopsticks Brothers to make a transition and come out with a song called "Little Apple," which was so different from their previous music style that many people couldn't accept it because before they played the youth and relationship card, everyone loved the Chopsticks Brothers because they sang it in their hearts, and the song "Little Apple" seemed to be created to cater to the market's needs. It has also become a divine song for square dancing after "The Most Dazzling National Wind" and "Love Deal". The lyrics in it are also a bit hard to understand, not that the lyrics are deep, but a bit rotten or even low, and the MV of the song is also hard to understand, as if it is simply taken by beautiful and funny people.
Many people were surprised that this was the same old boy who sang "Dream" and "Youth". But that didn't stop this "Little Apple" from gaining a lot of commercial value. With this song, it won the "China's most popular song award" and "the best international pop music festival of the year". In fact, when it comes to these two awards, it feels like a black question mark. Though popular, Bian Xiao believes that international stuff should come out with strong lyrics, not this kind of muffled "Little Apple".
Whatever form the song takes, it has merit. What many people can't accept is that the Chopsticks Brothers' transformation seems to be a "Little Apple" for commercial reasons. It looks like a fire, but the soul of the song itself is lost. After this "Little Apple", the Chopsticks Brothers have produced very little in the way of music. Have they done it all? Now, this "Little Apple" is also slowly silent. In fact, if the Chopsticks Brothers had gone all the way to the original path, they could have created more touching works. But the "Little Apple" in addition to the commercial value of the chopsticks brothers can be said to be a major failure. Many people would choose "old boys" and "fathers" in talent shows or other large-scale scenarios. For example, in the first stage of "Singer", Yu Quan and Ku Kwai Ki chose to sing this type of song instead of "Little Apple".
