Chapter 840: Dong Chou's Music Ranking (Twenty-Three)

"The fog that can't be blown away~ hides the intention~

Who paced softly ~ stopped ~ It's too late to cry~

The bullet that passes through takes away the temperature~"

Longing for the church, but the road is foggy, what is the real intention, "Who paced softly ~ stop" This sentence must give Huang Junlang a thumbs up, it's amazing, that kind of picture is like a single-lens reflex snapshot, which makes people feel numb from the bottom of their hearts! Stop, and then it was just the right pause, "It's too late to cry, the bullet that passes through takes away the temperature", the author recalls his father's death, and the words used are that it's too late to cry, and the bullet that passes through takes away the temperature, this is the thing of early Jay Chou's music, exquisite and delicate or exquisite! Every note, every sentence deserves scrutiny.

This kind of singing rap, rhyme and layer by layer progression is very important, I am very fortunate that Huang Junlang did it perfectly, the most perfect one gave the most perfect in the name of the father, all the way to this point, very rhyming, with rap layer by layer, people can't stop.

"Each of us is guilty ~ guilty of a different sin ~

I can decide who's right~who's going to sleep~

Arguments cannot be resolved ~ in the never-ending night ~

Turn off your mouth ~The only favor~"

Each of us is born with original sin, which is a Christian saying, a bit like the beginning of human beings in ancient Chinese Legalism, and their nature is evil. We are guilty of different sins. The author is on the road to revenge because he witnessed the death of his father, I will decide who is right and who is wrong, I will decide who will sleep (die), the argument can only be resolved by bullets, this is a favor for you, shut up! The author at this time is conceited. Revenge became the only way. The arrangement here has always been a drum kit and the background sound of the main melody, which is in line with the tone of rap. The melody continues to rap.

"Those who stand in the way are guilty~regret and have no way out~

Judgment in the name of the Father~ That feels like there is no suitable vocabulary ~

It's like crying while laughing~staring at the complete black~

The tragedy that stops the spread of the tragedy will intoxicate me~"

Whoever stands in the way has to die, why? For I have condemned them in the name of the Father, and there is no way for me to return. I couldn't put it into words, and I repented and was just as intoxicated with killing. The melody arrangement is the same as above.

"Bow your head and kiss my left hand ~ in exchange for the promise of forgiveness ~"

No need to explain, repent. The melody here has become more and more brilliant, and it is becoming more and more difficult to sing along, and Jay Chou actually spent a lot of careful thought in singing this song. The chanting in the front has been low as if praying, and the singing voice in the back has changed several times, and there are a lot of harmonic arrangements, all of which define perfection.

"The old organ is in the corner~ always and always accompanied~

The black curtain is blown by the wind, and the sunlight penetrates wordlessly~

Sprinkle it on the beasts that have been tamed by me~"

Strong rhetoric, strong sense of imagery. Like the first two sentences, the rendering of artistic conception creates an atmosphere. Sprinkle it on the beasts that I have tamed. Implying that oneself and one's men are like beasts, beast is the name of all hostile in Christianity. The rhythm has become faster and faster, and the most enjoyable singing rap is here. With invincible rhymes and progressive rhythms, although the lyrics and arrangement of the whole song are powerful, the role of the song is also undoubted.

"Shout silently, shout silently~Loneliness begins to ferment~

Keep laughing at me ~ Memories are gradually burning ~

The picture of the once innocent ~ cruel tenderness appears ~

It's time for fragility ~ let's pray together ~"

Let's start with the last sentence, when the time of vulnerability comes, let's pray together. From conceit to prayer, the first few sentences are about the process, which corresponds to the latter sentence "Behind the glory is engraved a loneliness". Endless killing, in the end, only the loneliness of the heart ferments. Those mocking faces seem to be dreaming in your mind, and the author can't help but recall those innocent pictures of the past. Then came the idea of prayer.

"Merciful Father, I have fallen into ~the kingdom of invisible~

Please forgive my conceit~

No one can say that no one can say ~ it's so unbearable ~

Behind the glory is engraved a loneliness~

When I closed my eyes, I saw ~ the picture of the dream back then~

The sky is misty~

My father took my hands ~ and walked gently ~ The quiet stone road in the early morning~"

Let's not talk about the lyrics first, let's talk about the music here. After the last sentence is completely said to pray together, officially enter the chorus, the first chorus of "In the Name of the Father" is already very perfect, and it is even more praised here, in fact, aside from the fancy arrangement and arrangement, the melody of the chorus of "In the Name of the Father" is very perfect. Especially Jay Chou's low half-humming and half-singing, Jay Chou rarely does this anymore, it is the kind of humming with many tracks and harmonies, and it is rare to see you again in the later stage.

Pay attention to the background melody that has not been interrupted at this time, and it looks very weird but extremely matched with the humming. When Jay Chou was singing, he also accompanied the drumbeat to sing "a-you-you-cheiken-cheiken-a-ya", which became a classic in the hearts of many fathers in the future. What is spontaneity and rhythm. "In the Name of the Father" is at least in the top ten so far.

In the Name of the Father's Quality is everywhere, and if that's all there is to it, it's not enough. After the first A and B, the interlude of "In the Name of the Father" exploded. It's a tremendous spiritual force that seems to be able to knock you to the ground all at once.

Let's start with the MV. At this moment, please pause to read, thank you, pull the MV to the last few lines of the chorus about the first time, at this time the MV is more than halfway, Jay throws the gun out of the window from the car, and the car drives to the church, at this time, with the extremely calm but sad piano to the bones, and the chanting of the prelude female voice, Jay pushes open the door of the church, full of church candles, the camera slowly slides over the church wall The portraits of the Virgin, the picture is here, the audience may still be immersed in the sad piano notes and sacred frescoes, suddenly the picture switches, Quickly flashed back to Jay's frightened eyes back then, at this time the female voice in the background sang to the climax, pay attention to Jay Chou's expression in the MV, hesitant, lonely, but firm, it is definitely the best moment of Jay Chou's acting skills. The picture flashed back to the young man's frightened eyes, bang! Five gunshots pushed the artistic conception to a high tide. The female chant seemed to be the background sound of the sacred church, and it was instantly ended by the sound of gunfire! The abruptness and the echo in my ears make my scalp tingle instantly. I don't know how to describe this feeling, the MV is supposed to tell a story and tell a picture, but this MV is about arrangement! Speaking the depth of sound! And the voice is not telling the music! Voices tell stories! I'm talking about the picture! The high level of integration of the graphics and the arrangement is creepy, but yet addictive, what a wonderful enjoyment.

So far. "In the Name of the Father" really stands out.

Use the sound of gunfire to end the interlude, and at the same time open the arrival of the A section, the A section of this part is the best part of the whole song, the repetition is just right, the whole song loves to sing along, and the coolest part of the singing is undoubtedly this one. So this part of the whole song is repeated 2 times including the A section. Every time you sing along, it's a word, hang! Then there is the B-segment chorus, and Jay Chou's voice has always been relatively low at this time, including the harmony of the chorus. Until the end of b. At this time, a gunshot rang out, the artistic conception turned 180 degrees again, Jay Chou's high-pitched chanting and female chanting blended into one, or that sentence, with his father's arrangement, the song is also awesome, the song of these few sentences is like a steep peak after a flat river, and the gunshot is like a thunderbolt on a sunny day. The storm of the moment, this is a cry from life. As if he was crying out to his own consciousness like the Holy Father, "Merciful Father~~~ I have fallen into ~~~ the most invisible kingdom~~~" The high artistic conception with the lyrics, songs, and singing is amazing. Continue here and pick up the chorus b', but do you think it's just a chorus?

"The mottled family crest ~ wiped it all night~

The brilliance of loneliness ~ the feeling of understanding ~ The candlelight kept flickering~The owl looked into the distance from the window lattice~

The promenade leading to the hall ~ the same indescribable vicissitudes of life ~

There is no hustle and bustle ~ only tranquility surrounds ~ I'm slowly falling asleep~It's just dawn~"

The insertion of this part of the C section of Jay Chou finally gave the perfect coffin in the name of the father. In fact, this kind of multi-track harmony with different melodies and lyrics Jay Chou has used several times in the first four. The interweaving of Jay Chou's singing and the little girl's rap in the coward. In the second class of the third year, it was also a double enjoyment of rap and singing. Similarly, the rap in the terraces and the aboriginal folk songs are blended together. And so on and so forth. But in the name of the Father, it is the most ingenious (alongside the terraces ^^), first of all. In the father, the fusion of the two stanzas coincides so much that it is almost impossible to hear it the first time, and then the difference grows in the second half, and then the chorus ends. Paragraph C continues with two more sentences.

In addition, it is the exceptional brilliance and power of the C segment. Finally, it is the last two sentences, "There is no hustle and bustle ~ only tranquility surrounds me ~ I am slowly falling asleep ~ the day has just dawned ~".

How to say this paragraph, first of all, since the C section is paralleled, it is destined to only use one arrangement, so in fact, if you listen carefully, the structure of the chorus should be very similar, and even many notes have similarities. The only dissonant thing is that the harmony of the C section is a little more, and it is precisely the extra sentence that comes out of it, which is just right, which is really destined. When all the arrangements were classified as 0, when the sounds of all the instruments were cut off, Jay Chou almost whispered to himself, I slowly fell asleep, and the day was just dawning. It's so lovely. This abrupt end is like the art of the terraces, which is really difficult to comprehend. It can only be meant, but not spoken. Even the end of such a miracle, not the father first? Who's first?

……

admired Dong Chou all night.

When "In the Name of the Father" ended, it was already past six o'clock in the morning, and the sky outside the KTV was bright.

Although Fang Yajun was intoxicated with Dong Chou's music, she couldn't stand it after spending so much energy all night and drinking a lot of wine.

Du Xinghe is different, he has to carry himself for three days and can't sleep. He wants to go back quickly, and he won't go to the lower world to find guilt first. So he took Fang Yajun back to the hotel, and after Fang Yajun went to bed, Du Xinghe sat in front of the computer again and continued to enjoy Dong Chou's music.

Without music, he would definitely be exhausted, and only by immersing himself in music can he continue to suffer.

After appreciating the classics of Dong Chou overnight, Du Xinghe continued to listen to Dong Chou's music on the Internet with an inertial mentality. He used to listen to old songs, and he wanted to listen to Jay Chou's songs in the middle and late stages with a new mentality, and see if he could find some bright spots from them. Anyway, before crossing over, he had a feeling that he was not enjoyable enough to listen to the music of Jay Chou's middle and late stages.

With such a mentality, Du Xinghe continued to listen to Dong Chou's 11th album.

This 11th album, called "Exclamation Point", was released on November 11, 2011, and there are 11 songs on the album, all of which are well-intentioned. But it's a pity that this album didn't bring surprises, even if I listen to it now, Du Xinghe still feels that this album is just like that. But he seems to have seen a web novel called "God of Song" somewhere, with an exclamation point on the cover cover......

When listening to "Exclamation Point", Du Xinghe also casually browsed some music reviews on the Internet, and he felt that one post was written objectively. The post is titled "Is That All? That's it". He agrees with the evaluation of this "Exclamation Point" in the post.

Here's what the post reads:

Is That All? That's it"

……

When I wrote this title, it meant to me that this year was over, and I laughed dryly, haha. The biggest expectation, the most miraculous moment, like a red hijab, the beauty and ugliness are clear at a glance. Is this girl beautiful or ugly? The comment is posted at the end, which is pure nonsense and is for reference only. I'm talking about something useless.

When this article was first written, it was the most affectionate and brain-dead, and I proposed a "change and change", and I was accidentally put on the home page by the soybean oils, and now I am very ashamed to think about it. Because I found that this view was only 50 percent correct.

Fifty percent of this is true: humans are born to be nostalgic animals.

As a result, "Jay" and "Fantesi" are the best anyway. And no matter how fancy "Magic Seat" and "Cross Era" are, it is just like a young and shy ex-ex-boyfriend who regularly comes to meet in the posture of a rich and bloated coal boss.

I read his original goodness, and I never dwell on how painful "Istanbul" is, I heard you say that it was exotic, ah, okay.

I read his original goodness. I never criticize "Niangzi" as the worst melodic Chinese style in history, I heard you say that it is a great way to sing, ah, okay.

It wasn't until later that a small square was built next to my house, and when I was in high school, I would pass by there every day and meet literary and artistic old men and women. The old man played the most ugly erhu in history, and the old aunt sang the world's most exotic "Night on the outskirts of Moscow...... Forgive me for accidentally remembering these two songs by Jay Chou.

And I regret that I missed 50 percent: sometimes the two sides of the coin are not only "change and change", but also "sincerity and insincerity", "intention and indifference", "inspiration and uninspiration", and most importantly, "habit and unaccustomed". If you are really not used to it, no matter how hard you work, how sincere and inspired, it is still all nonsense.

So I often see some funny, such as two fans who are both Jay Lun are also fighting, fighting for a lot, fighting to each other in the end, what to do with each other's mother...... It's boring. They all think that "opinions" and "opinions" are fighting, but in fact, "ears" and "ears" are fighting, "tastes" and "tastes" are fighting, and "stupid-forced" and "stupid-forced" are fighting.

That being said, I think the only useful point in this article is:

Can you start with "Exclamation Point" and taste it with only your ears?

When you find that the taste is different, you scold me as a "fool" in your heart, and praise me as "good"; I also scolded you in my heart for being "stupid-", praised you for being "tasteful", and then looked at each other and smiled, and I was in love, how harmonious this is.

Therefore, the so-called music criticism at the end of the article does not have to be taken seriously, it only represents my taste and my ears, you should not be very unconfident that my ears are high-fidelity, and your ears are copycats. In addition, things that grow and are generally not nutritious. So.

……………………………………………………………………

Some people say that liking is a kind of inertia, I don't agree, you look at a lot of people who like him like this - when they grow up, they delete this era one by one, leaving a few Fantesi, they say regretfully: You have changed, you have changed, you have changed......

It's really hard to explain anything to them, I just remember seeing a sentence -

People like to say "1: You've really disappointed me, it hasn't changed in years." 2: You've really disappointed me, you've changed in just a few years. ”

What does this mean? The importance of closing comments.

This is said on the Seven Sumies blog. I think how infatuated I was with her back then, but now I don't pay much attention to her, so I know that what has changed is that I have changed. Therefore, even if Jay Chou reversed the order of the album and sent it. What should be walked is still gone, and what should be sprayed is still sprayed.

Even so, those who leave, those who remain, those who hold, those who are black. Those who are educated, those who are not sued, don't have to quarrel anymore, you always think that there are enough reasons to convince each other, but in fact, as soon as you open your mouth, you are wrong, how can your reasons be the reasons for others? How can you force someone you don't like to like your singing voice? In the same way, how can you force the person you like to dislike the singing voice you don't like? Why can't the stinky tofu you regard as a delicacy be like and disgusting in the eyes of others? Why can't you listen to a love deal that loops indefinitely on someone else's computer?

So, no more fighting.

Does Jay Chou's talent still need to be proven? No, you don't.

Has Jay Chou's talent been exhausted? If you think it's exhausted, don't listen to it.

Did Jay Chou make music with heart? Well...... It's hard to say, I think he is somewhat unprofessional, anyway, I won't watch his bad movies in the future.

That's my attitude.

And then. For those people who are purely malicious, and for those who shout at every turn how bad Jay Chou is, how vulgar, ugly, and how sb, I will be in a daze, then smile slightly, and then close the monitor...... Time will have a conclusion, even if time has no conclusion, we still have Jay in our hearts, which is a very exciting thing.

As far as I observed. got a conclusion: the fans who love "Jay", "Fantesi", and "Octave" the most are probably old boys between eighty-five and eighty-eight, and the fans who are most obsessed with "Ye Huimei", "Qilixiang", and "November" are probably small pot friends between ** and ninety-two. The little pot friend after 92 years has more feelings for the albums after this six albums.

Is there wood?

If this is the case, we will not discuss with others which of Jay Chou's albums is more classic in the future, what we fall in love with is actually the memories of our youth. Those older fans told me how classic simple love is, and how greasy and sweet it is. Whether you like this kind of thing or not is too subjective, are you really sure that the haunting jade white jade soup that you recommend when you meet people is not tofu boiled cabbage leaves?

Talk about Zhou and Zhou's "Exclamation Point"

When I talk about an album, I usually talk about its style first, hey, do you know what R&B is? Oh, someone must know. But in fact, I haven't been able to figure it out for so many years. Later, I went to pick up the music of Jiji, Leehom, Datong and of course, and the boiled egg, and self-righteously summed it up, r&b is a tune that can be repeated and repeated, in order not to be boring, waiting for the opportunity to progress in the repetition, and then play the musical form of dazzling transposition in the progressive process, which can be roughly called r&b, it has a beautiful and sad Chinese name "rhythm complaint".

At the earliest, Jay Chou played this r and b. For example, if you look at "Perfectionism":

If you say doubt, you can make a sentence

If separation can be translated

If this qiē really can

I want to close my loneliness

Then there is no date limit here

Then slowly review the past

Make me fall in love with your tragedy

It's a perfect show for you

……

The first three sentences do not change a single note, the fourth sentence is slightly changed, the fifth to seventh sentences directly copy the music of the first three sentences, and the eighth and fourth sentences are about the same. So, R&B isn't at all unfathomable, so what's there to play with? By the way, singing skills are played by who compares whose singing skills. However, the word singing skills is still too narrow, because can you say that Wu Qingfeng's singing skills are not good, no, but if Wu Qingfeng's sister plays R&B, Soda Green will really become strange - the voice is really destined.

The voice required by R&B is either elastic like Tao Jiji and Wang Leehom, or flexible and three-dimensional like Jay Chou, or magnetic and deep like Fang Datong...... Oops, having said so much, the above is all nonsense, my main topic is, Dong Chou doesn't play or plays less R&B for Mao recently? The harsh reality I have to tell you is that he is old...... (To be continued......)
