Chapter 21: Three Red Dragonflies
In this afternoon's basketball game, the Conservatory won again. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
In the whole game, except for the fact that there are more sisters who come to see Hua Ming play, there is nothing else worth saying.
Of course, Jiang Ziling came to report on time again. After the game, he followed Hua Ming back to the dormitory.
After washing, the three of Hua Ming did not go out to eat, but ate a little casually in the school cafeteria. Because Hua Ming had to rush back to the dormitory to write songs.
The song Hua Ming wanted to write was called "Red Dragonfly", which was conceived by the name of the Red Dragonfly Band.
Speaking of the song Red Dragonfly, what a slightly older Chinese person can think of must be the song of the Little Tigers, which is the title song of the Little Tigers' second album "Red Dragonfly" after their debut.
The song "Red Dragonfly" by the Little Tigers is a work written by Li Ziheng, another master music creator on Bay Island, since its launch in 1990, it has won the "Golden Melody Dragon and Tiger List" summer total ranking champion and the "Golden Melody Dragon and Tiger List" annual total ranking runner-up, which shows how popular this song was at that time.
In 2015, the famous domestic youth group TFBOYS covered this song again, and once appeared on the evening party of Mango Station with this song.
In fact, the Little Tigers' song "Red Dragonfly" is not the original song, they sang it through Li Ziheng after filling in the lyrics.
The song "Red Dragonfly", the real original song was written and sung by RB singer Chang Yugang in 1988, and it is also translated as "Dragonfly" in China
Compared with the Little Tigers' version with a fresh and natural style with a bit of boy-next-door flavor, Hua Ming actually prefers the rock-style version of Chang Yugang with a bit of vicissitudes.
In terms of the fame of the two versions, it should actually be the version of Tsuyoshi Nagabuchi, which was a smash hit on RB and sold more than one million. That's a pretty big number at RB.
In addition, this song by Tsuyoshi Nagabuchi has also been evaluated as a "song that moved the whole RB in the 20th century" and enjoys a high reputation.
For Hua Ming, this version of Changbuchi Gang, in addition to the song itself is really good, what is particularly attractive to him is the lyrics of the song.
The lyrics of this song, translated from Japanese, are to the effect that:
Every time I grunt, I stepped the asphalt
My desire is just to be myself and keep going
Looking at the people who are hypocritical, counting the difficult nights
In the inescapable darkness, today I still pretend to sleep
The bustling city of "Greater Tokyo" that once made me look forward to death
I carried my shriveled travel bag and headed north and south
When chewed on the rough and bitter sand
My integrity was knocked down
Now I feel even more unforgettable
ā¦ā¦
Originally, it was a song about the frustration, distress, and anger of a group of people who came to Tokyo because of their longing. But after Hua Ming saw the lyrics, it was especially like describing the Beipiao family in China, and he fell in love with it deeply.
Therefore, it is quite impressive.
Of course, these two different versions of "Red Dragonfly" do not exist in the world where Huaming is now.
Hua Ming first wrote the Little Tigers' version of "Red Dragonfly", obviously, in terms of the age and experience of the Red Dragonfly Band, of course, it is more suitable to sing the fresh and natural style of the Little Tigers.
After the whole song was written, Hua Ming thought about it, and very solemnly wrote down the name "inexplicable" in the blank space behind the lyrics and composition.
For Hua Ming, he has no shame to pretend to be a songwriter, and it is difficult to write the name of the real original author - there is no way to explain it, so he has to make up the name "inexplicable".
Jiang Ziling is very well-behaved, when Hua Ming was using Chen Yanbin's computer to write songs, she was watching quietly from the side.
It wasn't until Hua Ming finished writing that she asked curiously, "Who is it inexplicably?" ā
"You'll just assume that this person doesn't exist." Hua Ming really can't explain this.
Then, Hua Ming took out his guitar again and began to play the song.
Whether it's the Tigers' version or the version by Tsuyoshi Nagabuchi, the arrangement of the original work is mainly guitar-based, so this song is especially suitable for playing and singing on the guitar.
Although Hua Ming only wrote the lyrics and main melody of this song, and did not arrange it deliberately, Hua Ming was too familiar with this song, so he played and sang it very easily.
As soon as Hua Ming spoke, Chen Yanbin and the others in the dormitory were immediately attracted to him.
"That's good!"
After Hua Ming finished singing, Jiang Ziling looked at Hua Ming with a look of adoration, and her little hands were about to turn red.
Naturally, the reaction of others is the same.
Isn't this nonsense, the fresh and natural style of the Little Tigers certainly has a strong attraction for young people of this age of college students.
The song is complete. Originally, Hua Ming wanted to arrange another piece of music for it with musical instruments, but he thought about it or forget it, let Kang Dahai and them complete it, even if it was to give them a chance to exercise.
After that, Hua Ming recalled the song "Red Dragonfly" in Chang Yuangang's version, recalled his former life in the north, and remembered the music dreams of Xiao Haitian and Zheng Yiming.
Why don't I write a song for my brother?
Hua Ming thought about it for a while, and began to ponder on the computer again, writing and stopping.
After a while, a new song "Red Dragonfly" came out:
Walk, walk, walk along the asphalt road into the bustling city
We are always chasing our dreams
Footprints are traces of hard work, and sweat is unyielding efforts
In order not to regret it.
āāāā
One day, dreams are like red dragonflies flying freely
We will smile because of our achievements
When that day comes, what is the hardship of today?
I just hope to fly with it that day.
āāāā
When the dragonfly flies farther and farther, the magnificent dream may be shattered
I don't cry for giving
There is no easy way to pursue your dreams
Don't blame life because you're disappointed
We're all going to get older
There are no regrets after chasing dreams
It's like a red dragonfly that never regrets flapping its wings
ā¦ā¦
This is a work that really belongs to Hua Ming's own creation, and he is inspired to give this song to all those who work hard because of their dreams.
After that, Hua Ming spent a certain amount of time arranging the piece, and increasing the strength of the guitar chords and drum kits, giving the song a strong rock flavor.
This time, Hua Ming solemnly wrote his name in the position of lyrics and arrangement, and the composition part was still inexplicable.
The guitar sound sounded again, the style changed, and the music also took on a strong flavor of vicissitudes.
"How do these two songs sound completely different?" Curious baby Jiang Ziling asked again.
"Of course it's different, the one in front is a fresh campus folk song style, and the one in the back is a vicissitudes of rock 'n' roll, so it's strange that the taste is the same!"
"Oh, you're amazing." Jiang Ziling didn't care about Hua Ming's tone, and still looked at Hua Ming with a look of adoration.
For the latter version, Hua Ming still feels a little regretful, he feels that he is not very suitable for singing rock and roll, because his voice is too brittle, and the taste of this song has not been fully revealed.
It seems that if you have a good voice, it may not be a good thing!
Anyway, after Hua Ming came to this world, his first work that really belonged to him came out.
Since then, the song "Red Dragonfly" has had a third version.
