Chapter 37: "I Wish People Were Long"

When Ren Bin told him the news that the show was killed on the phone, Gao Ge was not surprised at all.

"Ordinary Road" is a good song, but it is not suitable to appear on the stage of the Mid-Autumn Festival. Mainly because of the tight time of the first trial at that time, the songs he recorded in his hand were not suitable, and the recording time of the new songs was too late, so he took "Ordinary Road" on stage.

"The good news is that it's just the show that was killed. Ren Bin continued.

With Ren Bin mediating in the middle, Gao Ge is a person who has settled down internally, and the topic is discussed, so Beijing Satellite TV will naturally not let him leave like this. Of course, the program still has to be changed, and it must be in line with the theme of this year's Beijing Satellite TV Mid-Autumn Festival Gala 'Full Moon Reunion'.

The proposition essay has laid out the requirements, and all that remains for Gao Ge is to write (copy) the essay according to the requirements.

There are many songs about the moon and reunion, but the first thing that comes to mind is Su Shi's song "Water Tune Song Head-When Will the Bright Moon Be There", both the lyrics and the song are popular.

In particular, "I Wish People Were Long" composed by Liang Hongzhi was widely circulated among the audience, with Teresa Teng's version being the most classic.

As a literary masterpiece that has been tested by thousands of years of history, when paired with modern pop music, Teresa Teng sings it with her innate feelings, elegant, solemn, gentle, and affectionate, quite Tang and Song Dynasty style.

After the completion of this song, it has been covered by countless singers, unless the five notes are incomplete, but anyone with the strength of a KTV singer can sing this song well, which is the charm of the classic.

Of course, the reason why a classic can become a classic lies in the degree of singing, grabbing a passerby on the street and asking him to recite other poems casually may need to think about it first, but he can not only recite it in "Water Tune Song Head", but also sing it for you.

"I Wish People Were Long"

Words: Su Shi (Song) Song: Gao Ge

When is the bright moon, ask the wine to the sky.

I don't know what year it is in the heavenly palace.

I want to go back by the wind, but I am afraid that Qionglou Yuyu will be too cold in the heights.

Dance to figure out how the shadow seems to be in the world.

Turn Zhu Pavilion, low Qihu, shine sleeplessly.

There should be no hatred, and nothing will be done to say goodbye.

People have joys and sorrows, and the moon is cloudy and sunny.

This matter is difficult to complete, but I hope that people will last a long time, and they will be together for thousands of miles. ”

Looking at the finished song in his hand, Gao Ge made a call to Xu Hongfei's mobile phone after filing it on the website of the Music Association.

"What's wrong with Lao Gao?"

Gao Ge directly stated his purpose, "Borrow your people and the recording studio." ”

An hour later, Gao Ge appeared in Xu Hongfei's recording studio, but what he didn't expect was that Xu Hongfei was actually there.

"Why are you here? Aren't you just borrowing your recording studio, and it's not that you don't give money, and you're a big boss and you're going to supervise the scene. When the two of them met, they started laughing.

Hearing the meaning of Gao Ge and laughing, Xu Hongfei immediately laughed and scolded, "Get out, is Lao Tzu such a stingy person?"

"That's a good feeling, I just didn't carry my wallet when I went out today. ”

", scan the code to me on WeChat, I don't believe you don't bring your phone when you go out. ”

Xu Hongfei naturally didn't come over this time to collect money, as soon as he entered the recording studio, he stretched out his hand to Gao Ge and asked for it, "Where's the new song?

"I said how could you, the big boss, come over, it turned out to be a purpose. Laughing, Gao Ge handed him the printed lyrics, "Are you interested in adding a name to the arrangement?" ”

Although the song has been composed, this is only the singing part, and the next arrangement is still very important, and in many cases the arrangement is even more important than the melody.

Generally speaking, what is written by the composer is the melody, that is, what the singer sings, and the arrangement is the accompaniment, except for the part sung by the singer, the rest is the accompaniment.

The birth of a song is far from being something that can be done by one composer, composing, arranging, producing, and mixing, all of which are indispensable.

"I'll see. ”

Xu Hongfei noticed the title of the song and the lyricist at a glance, "I'll go, you lyricist is awesome, and you directly invited Su Shi out." ”

There have always been new adaptations of Tang poems and Song lyrics on the Internet, and most of them belong to the self-congratulatory circle.

"Why did you aim at this song?" As he spoke, Xu Hongfei hummed quietly while looking at the tune, the more he hummed, the more he felt that something was wrong, and then after looking at Gao Ge's own name hanging behind Su Shi, the feeling in his heart became stronger and stronger.

"Is your song a direct release?" Xu Hongfei asked.

Gao Ge shook his head, "Beijing TV Mid-Autumn Festival Gala ......"

Hearing his answer, Xu Hongfei nodded, this is right!

At the scene of the Mid-Autumn Festival, when the ancient words of "when is the bright moon, ask the wine to the sky" resounded to the audience after the adaptation of modern pop music, who would not be immersed in it?

"I'm telling you, I've got to be involved in the arrangement of this song!"

As a qualified musician, Xu Hongfei's music professionalism is not at all to say, and his music appreciation ability is no problem.

Needless to say, Su Shi, men and women, young and old, know that they are the most beautiful lyricists who have experienced the test of thousands of years of history.

What surprised Xu Hongfei even more was that in Gao Ge's composition of this song lyrics, when he hummed quietly, it was completely impossible to recreate the lyrics of "Water Tune Song Head". A voice in the depths of his heart seemed to keep telling him that this song should be this song, and it should be sung like this.

Even the music he forcibly adapted could not escape the shackles of Gao Ge's composition, it was just humming once.

The lyrics and music are so harmoniously blended that he even hummed as he began to think about what kind of instruments and effects to use for production.

"Are you sure? I don't pay for the arrangement. Gao Ge said to Xu Hongfei with a smile.

Hearing what Gao Ge said, Xu Hongfei hurriedly waved his hand and said, "I don't need money, I just need to add my name to the arrangement." ”

When Beijing Satellite TV plays the title of the song and 'Lyrics: Su Shi (Song) Composer: Gao Ge Arrangement: Gao Ge, Xu Hongfei', what an exciting moment it will be!

Just do it, the two of them are people of action, otherwise they wouldn't have met at the beginning and formed a band immediately, and the tacit understanding is still there after so many years.

"How about piano and violin?"

"I thought I could give it a try. ”

"I think the voice structure can be designed like this here. As he spoke, Gao Ge took a booklet full of lines that he couldn't understand and showed Xu Hongfei to Xu Hongfei.

"And that part of the voice just now is a little too much, the density is too high, and it sounds a little blocked. Gao Ge pointed out.

"Where?"

The fledgling "I Wish People Were Long" was born in the hands of the two.
