Weida "Gemini Perspective"

The creation of songs is generally regarded as a mode of performing arts, a kind of leisure and entertainment for the public!

Personally, I think that songs are not just performance arts or entertainment, and most songs are works with multi-layered cultural connotations. Songs have both poetic charm and touching rhythms, which express the author's views and emotions, and some lyrics will have a complete story that reflects the values and phenomena of contemporary society. Because of such a rich connotation, listening to and singing nostalgic English songs is the most suitable tool for me to learn about the culture of Western countries and learn their language.

This column "Appreciation of Good Songs, Listening to Songs to Learn English" hopes to share nostalgic English old songs, so that friends who want to improve their English skills can have an easier channel to learn English. By sharing the author's inspiration when writing the song and the background of the time at that time, this is equivalent to providing a "context" for learning English, so as to improve English thinking> improve flexible understanding of English> and improve English expression skills.

Most of the nostalgic English songs shared in "Gemini Perspective" are slower and easy to master, and some of them have story content, with simple and beautiful words and correct grammar. It is well worth using as a reference for learning English. At the back of each song, learning points are also integrated, and some noteworthy points are given to the friends to wake up.

The original song "Love Is Blue" was written by French musician Andre Popp in 1967 by Pierre Cour, and later English lyrics were written by Bryan Blackburn in 1968 and recorded by American singer Johnny Mathis.

The song also has a popular pure music performance, a late 1967 version performed by Paul Mauriat, the leader (conductor) of the French orchestra, the only French orchestra to reach number one on the American pop charts. What I'm sharing with you today is the version of Mauriat singing in the music played by his own band.

In the lyrics of this song, the author uses a number of different colors to express the different states of a love:

Blue = melancholy, depressed. --- The feeling of being separated and suffering from gains and losses.

Gray = gray, lifeless. --- After an official breakup.

Red = sad tears. --- Tears of regret.

Green = jealousy, doubt, distrust. --- When you love too deeply, you want to possess 100% of the other person, leaving no free space for the other person, and it is easy to be suspicious and jealous when you have the slightest thing.

Black = loss, loneliness. --- After losing it, I still want to continue the frontier.

Therefore, it is not easy to deal with a good relationship, in addition to both parties to be honest and tolerant of each other, they must also leave a certain amount of privacy space for each other, so as not to be like the singer, jealous of love;
