Qi Yi's song is a good poem.
Many people have heard "This Age", the lyrics and melody are like pen and ink, gently depicting real life.
There are not many singers who can hit people's hearts, and Qi Yi must be counted as one.
"At This Age"
When I found out I was old enough to start a family
But what about my woman?
When I used to turning truths into fairy tales
What about my innocence?
At this age I am no longer ready
Some things can't be forced
What should come will always come
Those who should go cannot be saved
In the popular variety show "The Man Who Does Housework", when Wei Daxun sang this song, he choked up several times in front of his parents and finally cried loudly.
Some netizens said: At that moment, I also understood this song.
The most difficult state for an adult is to start worrying about his parents who are getting old, the messy career and the invisible future in front of him, the girl who meets the heartbeat no longer dares to open her mouth, and when she closes her eyes, she still feels that there is a little blood in the body that has nowhere to put it.
One morning in the summer of 2015, Qi Yi stayed up all night without sleeping in order to write songs, sitting alone on the balcony watching the sky light up little by little, and the number of people working downstairs increased one after another.
At that time, he had just embarked on the road of music, and that state made him confused.
At eight o'clock in the morning, he opened a bottle of red wine, and the song was sung, and the wine also bottomed out.
Taking advantage of the wakefulness before dizziness, he quickly recorded the melody with his mobile phone.
Shortly after the release of "This Age", the number of listeners on major music platforms rose rapidly, and the song reviews have now reached 100,000+.
For a while, it can be heard in the mouths of young people selling songs on the street, on the radio in taxis, and in the noisy environment of supermarkets.
In addition to the simple melody, what is more important is that the singer Qi Yi is different from most people who are worried about giving new words.
He understands real life.
"To Myself"
I asked myself if you were still young
Is your soul still pure?
The crowd was stopping and going who was struggling
And who is looking up to fate?
In fact, Qi Yi's first original song was called "To Myself".
Born in 1986, he graduated from the Acting Department of Tianjin University.
He was a brilliant comedian.
I studied acting for four years in college, went to choreography for four years after graduation, and then went into the sales industry for one year.
At the age of 30, he became an independent musician.
Many people say that there is an indescribable warmth when you hear "To Yourself".
From childhood to adulthood, all we hear is: you have to be sensible, you have to be outgoing, you have to get ahead.
But it is rare to hear: you have to be happy.
"Where There Is Light"
The ideal that was once ridiculed
The girl who had shed tears for me
That past sometimes comes flooding my chest
Become a wound that I don't hang on my face
People often ask about the story in Qi Yi's songs.
Qi Yi always shook his head and said he didn't want to talk about it.
During the recording of the song, Qi Yi suddenly lost control of his emotions, his singing voice trembled, and he sang one less sentence in the choking gap.
The post-production crew retained this process of emotional change during the production process, which was fully presented in the released song.
"Abnormal Inspirational Songs"
You think it's a slow song
But I think you're wrong
Life is not a movie without slow motion
Don't be fooled by my prelude
I did write a lot of slow songs
But the pace began to be slow
Actually, I did it on purpose
One night when he was in a very bad mood, Qi Yi picked up his pen, and the lyrics poured out like water, and he wrote more than three times.
Later, it was cut at the time of recording.
About this song, Qi Yi said:
"A lot of people tell me that this song is funny and casual, but I actually want to say that for this song, any details you hear are designed, there is no randomness." 」
"It's Worth It"
How to sing a song well
I don't know if a road can be followed
I don't know that there are millions of reasons to hinder me
I just want to live my life
I know this
This song is very similar to Li Zongsheng.
Whether it is the truth in the song or the style and melody of the song, it is so coincidental.
Maybe it's because they're singing the joys and sorrows of little people.
Only by experiencing some things, at a certain age, will you know that adapting to life and accepting yourself is a valuable ability.
Qi Yi once spent two hours reading and liking more than 2,000 comments from the audience one by one in one evening.
Afterwards, he asked everyone on Weibo which lyrics touched their hearts the most.
The comments section is in full swing.
Listening to a song and talking about a feeling is the biggest gain.
