The song "Covenant of the Heart" was co-written by Xiao Xuan and Tan Jianchang and included in the self-titled album released in 1987. If you see that the lyrics and composition are Tan Xuan, it is actually a combination of Xiao Xuan and Tan Jianchang. They wrote many excellent songs, such as: "Light Rain in March", "Clouds in Hometown", "Three Hundred and Sixty-Five Mile Road", "Dream Camel Bell" and so on.
Tan Xuan
Deng Miaohua, born in 1960, is a female singer in the 1980s. In 1981, from Singapore across the sea to Taiwan to develop popular, released 12 albums in Taiwan, 43 in Southeast Asia, representative works of the song "Traction", "Confession of Love" and so on.
Deng Miaohua
The song "Covenant of the Heart" is a 2/4 beat, ABA-style song. Deng Miaohua's voice is very clear, even if it doesn't sound like an '87 song at all. The song uses a lot of synthesizer sounds to match her ethereal voice, and the whole arrangement makes the song sound like it came from the air. The accompaniment of this song should be a work done by a synthesizer, and of course it should be recorded on a split track. Now it's MIDI software + a synth that can do it.
Tan Jianchang's voice is very grounded, magnetic, and has a sense of vicissitudes. When singing, there is more freedom, which is why composers can use singing to convey their understanding of the work, and this understanding is often deeper. Therefore, Tan Jianchang's singing part can be said to be a variation of Deng Miaohua's part, which has two advantages. First, it brings a different feeling, in addition to the difference in the sound itself, the melody is also slightly different. Second, you can avoid the difference in male and female tones and lead to the back of the high note can not be sung, this song if the male voice should choose C key or bB (down B) is better. However, because it is a chorus, it can only be combined with female voices. Therefore, Tan Jianchang's singing method successfully avoided the high-pitched part.
It's a very entertaining piece of music.
F: I cherish the memory of you
Be there to feel your love
Although the past is getting farther and farther away
I wish everything hadn't changed
M: My love hasn't changed
In my heart you are my only dream
Although I endured the loneliness of parting
Looking forward to the reunion
He: Through a thousand mountains through ten thousand waters
Go to the covenant of the heart together
Can't see you can't touch you
I've felt it
It's so close to you
F: Give me a deep call again
Comfort my vicissitudes of heart for you
M: How can I give up thinking about you?
HH: That's all I have
