Hello everyone, I'm Sister D.
Have you all watched this year's hit TV series "The World"? The Douban score is as high as 8.1 points, the topic discussion has exceeded 8.3 billion times, and thousands of people in the comment area have left messages saying: "I cry once I watch it." "Tears are so precious that they need not be repeated. Especially sigh that in that distant era, love could bloom so dazzling like gold! For example, in the play, Zhou's father died, Zhou's mother kept vigil alone, and finally held her husband's hand and froze to death, every time I saw this scene, I would cry non-stop.
"The World" has a total of 39 episodes, and the wedding scene accompanied by the theme song is deeply moving. The lyrics of "I wish you to step through a thousand waves and stay by your lover's side" and "When your mother is old, listen to her talk slowly about her childhood", these lyrics really depict the depth of family affection.
However, behind this tearful song is a girl who has been fighting cancer for 9 years, she is Tang Tian. Maybe you don't know her name, but her songs are definitely familiar, such as "Breakup should be decent, no one needs to apologize" in "Decent", and "I can follow behind you, like a shadow sleepwalking with the light" in "Chaser of Light". Do these songs reverberate in your heart?
Tang Tian's lyrics contain hard work and tenacity, depicting the struggle of countless ordinary people in adversity in ordinary worlds. She has gone through a 10-year long journey to fight cancer, but she is still full of vitality. She is known as the "godmother of music", compared with music giants such as Huang Weiwen and Lin Xi, she may seem small and weak, but she is easily forgotten without hard work.
In 2005, Tang Tian, who was only 23 years old, undertook the record production of "Super Girl", and successfully produced an album that satisfied both listeners and the market in less than 3 months. The message of the song is "sing if you want, sing loudly", and "not afraid of wind and rain, happiness is my strength". These songs are brave and sunny, deeply rooted in people's hearts and spread in the streets and alleys. From the stationery store in front of the school to the cake shop on the corner, this song has made Tang Tian's music career flourish.
Subsequently, Zhou Bichang sang Tang Tian's support song "Notes", the lyrics contained the expression "I want to fly, I won't get tired no matter how far I go", making Tang Tian the behind-the-scenes hero of Li Yuchun, Zhou Bichang and other super female voices.
Why are Tang Tian's lyrics so popular? Because they are real. When composing the song "If Love Goes On" for Zhang Liangying, Tang Tian communicated with Zhang Liangying for 4 hours. She asked Zhang Liangying: "What do you think 'love' is?" Zhang Liangying replied: "Faith." Then Tang Tian asked again: "When you break up, do you cry?" Zhang Liangying said frankly: "Yes, but I prefer to choose to be strong." Tang Tian wrote this "unbearable calmness" into the lyrics, which included the lyrics of "What would have happened if we loved a long time ago", a short lyric that is still sung today. This is also reminiscent of Zhang Liangying's later love, how appropriate this lyric is.
In those years, Tang Tian wrote more than 30 lyrics for Mango Stage, and she was already on the throne of "music godmother" at the age of 27. However, when no one was in the middle of the night, she also had a little regret, she once said: "When can I write a song for myself?" That's what she says.
On New Year's Day 2012, Tang Tian learned that she had nasopharyngeal cancer, and she understood the horrors of the disease, from a slight nosebleed to a complete loss of hearing. She wrote on Weibo: "Chinese New Year's Eve, I was diagnosed with nasopharyngeal cancer. I hid in my room and cried, writing down many wishes, the most important of which was: I want to live past my parents. The next day, she left her rental house in Beijing, moved into a hospital room, and began the road of fighting cancer with 33 sessions of chemotherapy, 2 radiotherapy, and 8 targeted therapies.
Tang Tian said
She is afraid to tell her parents about her illness, but she longs for her idol, Eason Chan, to sing the songs she wrote. She believes that with hard work, she can fulfill all the wishes she wrote that night in 2012.
Perhaps, miracles really exist! Tang Tian's condition gradually improved, and Eason Chan also sang her song "The Lonely Brave", which was very popular, and the lyrics included "Love you walking alone in a dark alley, love your appearance without kneeling" and "Love you for facing despair, refusing to cry", these lyrics outline Tang Tian's struggle and positive determination during the illness.
Tang Tian's lyrics contain a deep understanding after experiencing pain. The lyrics from the song "The Lonely Brave" "Go? Is it matched? This ragged cloak, war? Fight! with the most humble dreams", expressing her determination to fight the disease. She told herself that as long as she lived, there was hope; As long as she doesn't die, she can find hope.
Some people say that Tang Tian is like Wei in the music video of "The Lonely Brave", holding a heavy fist, breaking the shackles, facing the cliff of life and death, and she firmly believes that one day, the whole city will look up to her. However, she herself thinks she is more like the "explosion" in the play. The illness left her with a "Jinx" madness, but it could never take away the hope in her heart. She sang, "I will make my city-state, on the ruins," a lyric that conveys her determination to persevere since she fell ill in 2012.
Being ill for 10 years is enough to make a person lose confidence in life, but it is also enough to bring back to life a person who once "died". In 2021, Phoenix Legend sang the song "Under the Sea" adapted by Tang Tian, which changed the public's perception of Phoenix Legend in one fell swoop. The lyrics convey Tang Tian's encouragement to depressed patients, and compared with the original, this version is more like two old men telling those who want to give up: "You must find a life that is 'in time'!" The lyrics in this song "The world is short-lived, everything is scattered into smoke", just like Tang Tian, who was once seriously ill, but as a patient, told everyone not to give up.
The message in Tang Tian's song "Under the Sea" is: even if you are in a dark sea, with a little strength, you can surface. This song is also her gift to all depressed people.
In March, China Television published a sheet music titled "The World," and the lyricist of the song was Tang Tian. Facing the 50-year story covered by Liang Xiaosheng's original novel "The World", Tang Tian felt the thickness of China's century-old history for the first time. She wrote in the lyrics: "The grass and trees will sprout, and the children will grow up", these lyrics express the flow of time, going to the countryside, resuming the college entrance examination, reform and opening up, the mark of that special era will not stop for anyone. Although she understood the folk sufferings of that era, she also sighed: "The suffering of the world, love will scatter and the rain will fall", at the same time, she also conveyed her love for life, writing: "The sweetness of the world, remember to go home no matter how far you go". These short lyrics deeply convey the core of "love" and "life".
Tang Tian's lyrics actually convey only two words: "love" and "alive". To live is to listen to my mother slowly tell her childhood stories as she ages. Love is to gradually piece together all the difficulties in the world into our own "world".
Writing here, I also think of the dumplings that my mother wrapped every New Year. As said in the play: "In this life, what you care about, and at the same time care about you, there are only a few people, and these people are your human world." "I hope that after reading this article, you can also be strong in the face of the difficulties in the world and stay by the side of your loved ones.
