222 "The Brother Who Sleeps on the Top Bunk"
He put down the beer mug in his hand, wiped his mouth with a napkin, then picked up the guitar that was set aside, and said:
"What Kuroko just said reminds me of those buddies in the dormitory when I was in college, there are eight people in our dormitory, to be honest, I and Liu Yimin are close now, and the others are no longer heard, I really miss it, there just happened to be a song, you listen."
After speaking, Yu Dongqing plucked the strings and played the prelude.
Everyone thought that when he sang the song "To Youth", they found that it was not at all, and even the sunspots who were more familiar with his songs could hear it.
It's not that "To Youth", it's a new song!
Brother who sleeps on my top bunk
Silent you
Those questions you used to ask me
No one asks anymore
Give me a cigarette to my brother
Give me a happy past
You can't always guess the coin in my hand
Shaking his head and saying it was too mysterious
It turned out to be a campus ballad?
Kuroko can hear that it is a popular campus ballad when he was in college!
Unexpectedly, Yu Dongqing actually sang campus ballads!
In recent years, folk songs have gradually become familiar with folk music from niche music, and more and more people have begun to like folk songs. But as early as more than 20 years ago, campus folk songs became popular all over the streets and alleys of the country.
It's a pity that the story of the white-clothed fluttering wind and snow moon on the campus is inevitably profit-seeking by businessmen, infected with the smell of copper, and for a time there is no disease moaning, shoddy songs fill this music scene, with a large number of campus singers changing careers and singing, the campus folk songs that once had a glorious past have long disappeared.
All that is left is memories.
whether the former young man in white is still looking at the years; whether the former youth is still so bright and glorious; There used to be an impulse of ideals, and dreams fluttered; There used to be wind and snow, and the singing was .......
Yu Dongqing was still singing quietly.
The girl you always talk about in those days
Whether or not she gave you her headband
You say whenever you look back at the sunset red
Whenever you hear the evening bell again
The bits and pieces of the past will spring up
In your heart that you don't have time to be sad
Zhou Wei also stopped barbecuing, took off his apron, and stood aside and listened quietly.
He is also a person who came from that era, and compared with Juanjuan, he feels more profoundly, after all, that is the collective memory of their generation.
Yu Dongqing continued to sing.
"You ask me when we can go back together
Take a look at our dorms and our past
The words you carved into the wall are still legible
No one has been able to wipe it off since then."
For a while, everyone at the scene was silent, not only the host and guests, but also the photographers on the side forgot their own work, and quietly listened to Yu Dongqing sitting on the chair singing in a low voice.
It's just a song. Juanjuan couldn't help but applaud, and Zhou Wei also gave a thumbs up.
Maybe only Yu Dongqing can sing the songs of that era, right?
Yu Dongqing smiled and hugged his fists to show his modesty, and took a big sip of cold beer from the beer glass on the table.
Singing such a song and drinking such a beer is a good match.
It's a pity that Yimin is not around, and if they were, it would feel better.
"Teacher Yu, your song is so good." Juanjuan couldn't help but say: "This song is uploaded to the Internet, I want to download it." ”
"I haven't composed the music yet, I guess there will be a while." Yu Dongqing smiled: "Do you like to listen to it too?" ”
"Of course! Although I haven't experienced your time, there is no time limit for good songs! ”
Scold?
Kuroko was secretly playing on the side.
Sure enough, he was called Qu Dad, a folk killer.
I even wrote a new song!
And it's a popular campus ballad more than twenty years ago!
That's a very good topic, Kuroko said with a smile.
"Holly, this song of yours reminds me of the popular campus ballad twenty years ago."
"yes." Zhou Wei also interjected: "At that time, everyone was holding guitars, 50 yuan a red cotton guitar, sitting on the grass on the campus like a baby and playing and singing. ”
"Looking back on that day, it seems like it was yesterday." Zhou Wei finally sighed.
"But very few people are singing like this now." Juanjuan also said.
"Because, the campus ballad is dead." Yu Dongqing said lightly.
"Dead?!" Juanjuan was surprised.
Kuroko and Zhou Wei also looked at him.
Yu Dongqing didn't rush to answer, but looked at them and asked, "You say, aren't you?" ”
The two were silent.
Although folk songs are beginning to revive now, new folk songs, pseudo-folk songs, urban folk songs, independent folk songs, and genetically modified folk songs are the only ones that do not have campus ballads.
The campus ballad is dead.
"Holly, isn't there still you? How awesome this song "The Brother Who Sleeps on My Top Bunk" is written! Kuroko laughed.
"Can I carry the banner of campus folk songs alone? Think too highly of me. Yu Dongqing smiled and shook his head.
"The most fundamental thing is that there is no soil for campus folk songs to flourish now, look at what college students are doing now?"
"I'm busy playing games, taking graduate school exams, and looking for jobs." Juanjuan said with a smile.
"yes. Who's going to listen to those stories? Yu Dongqing said again.
"I'm not like Juanjuan, who studied music seriously." Dawei, who had less words, also interjected at this time: "I have a classmate who once formed a band with me when he was in college, he has a good voice, and he was once the winner of the "Top 10" singer contest on our college campus. ”
"After graduation, we naturally went our separate ways, we studied liberal arts, and it was more difficult to find a job, but my classmate was quickly selected by a large state-owned enterprise and was given priority admission, do you know what position he was assigned to?"
"What position?" Juanjuan looked back at Dawei.
"Union, because he can sing."
Listening to Dawei's words, everyone laughed.
"But you're still singing." Yu Dongqing said to Dawei.
"But what we sing is no longer a campus ballad." David said.
In this era, there is no longer a need for gentleness and subtlety, and all nostalgia and remembrance is just superfluous narcissism. is like what is said in "One Hundred Years of Solitude": "The past is all fake, and memories are a road of no return." ”
For "campus ballads" in the true sense, a flash in the pan is the best ending.
The topic seems to have become a little heavy.
Kuroko is a master of mobilizing emotions, and he immediately said with a smile:
"Actually, you don't have to be pessimistic, any kind of music will rise and fall one day, but it may also return to the public eye in some form, as long as there is music and a university, campus folk songs may not die, maybe it will no longer appear as white clothes and snow, but it is also campus folk songs."
Everyone nodded.
"Come on, let's collectively sing Holly's song "To Youth" and put an end to this topic?"
"Good!"
After the guitar intro ended, the crowd began to sing:
His unruly face was like it was getting late
Her washed hair was like a flame in her heart
The short carnival has lasted for a lifetime
The long goodbye is a feast of youth
My hands on a winter night are like hot vows
Your twinkling eyes are like fragile faith
Thank you fengheng234, A Feng for a safe monthly pass
