? I think people have the impression that songs with simple rhythms, easy to understand, and easy to learn are all relatively low. Is that actually true?
Most people think Phoenix Legend is cheesy because the main way they hear the song is not on radio and TV, but on the outgoing cell phone of a migrant worker and the stereo of a square dance. The same catchy, listen once or twice can remember the melody of the song, my song in the song will get the literati full of applause, the most dazzling national wind is called vulgar. This is more a function of the human heart, and has little to do with the appreciation of the perspective of professional or not.

In fact, what is common and what is elegant? There is no standard answer. Our generations grew up in an era without a musical culture of their own. We are oriental in our bones, but we received a Western musical education. Our aesthetics, our pretentious orientation are all westernized. Who says our folk music is only in pentatonic mode? That's all quantized by that Western theory. There's no such thing as secular music. If someone likes it, it's good music, so why bother defining it?
