At the beginning of January 2021, Shan Yichun, who had made fans wait for a long time, finally released a new single "Dancing in the Night". The songwriting of this song is exactly Tang Hanxiao, who has just made a song "Mud" out of the circle in "Praise for The Song".
Before that, people may know that he is a draft debut, and may also be some songwriters and composers in the music industry, knowing that there is such a person who loves to write songs, but they do not know that there are many popular songs from his hands, such as "Let Me Stay with You", "Doomsday Spaceship", "Unknown Generation", "Skyscraper" and so on.
Maybe some friends who don't listen to Shan Yichun's new songs don't know that Tang Hanxiao has tailored two original songs for Shan Yichun:
One is "Photos", released on December 23, 2020, Yi Chun's 19th birthday, and the other is "Dancing at Night". Today, Sister Dust will first talk about this song "Dancing in the Night".
First of all, the lyrics of this song are very outstanding, and it has a sense of unconventional high-end.
Although writing about a person dancing at night feels like a person who has lost love or an emotional outpouring, Tang Hanxiao also writes about the relationship between the individual and the city, as well as the relationship between people.
These relationships are either estranged, or close, and in the end, they may inevitably be lonely.
The lyrics write about clouds, sunset and afterglow, the body into the night and anesthesia, write about rational impulses, write about human struggles and exhaustion. Write about emotional weightlessness, write about the helplessness and compromise that the city and people share.
From the lyrics, I seem to be able to feel a sense of helplessness, not wanting all that does not belong to me, so the attempts to the world, the attempts to you, the attempts to the city, and the attempts to people will eventually turn into smoke, and even finally give up all these attempts.
Speaking of composition, the two sentences in the chorus part of this song are particularly easy to remember, catchy, and very memorable.
It can be said that the song's song is completely tailor-made for Shan Yichun, which can make her skills of rapid conversion of high and low notes, true and false sounds reflected and displayed, and the mood and tone of the tail note where the chorus is deeply asked can be brought out freely and output freely.
The song is also very good in terms of arrangement, it seems simple, but it has that kind of high-level aesthetic.
For example, its piano is a slightly brisk dance step, especially the main song part, which is not arranged according to the melody of the main song at all, but like a bit of magic, creating an almost fairytale texture.
If there is no sound, just listening to this music, you can already feel a kind of beauty, although there is some loneliness and loneliness in the heart, but it does not lose the state of pleasing the self and relaxing the self.
Singing is not to mention, Shan Yichun's singing is as good as ever, with a voice that is much more mature than her own age, to sing a song that is greater than the emotion, she not only sings a person's love song loss, but also sings the hearts of people who seek in this city, one person for another person, and for their own peace, for the placement of loneliness.
Tang Hanxiao, who has been writing good works, is more liberated when he stands on the stage and sings his own song, and seems to be closer to the dream he pursues. This is of course the ultimate goal of everyone who craves the stage, but I am also afraid.
If he is too popular and too hot, will he write such a first work for others to sing, and will he have more time and energy to grind a song? Will it also create a good work for singers like Shan Yichun who are very good singers?
Maybe the contradictions we take for granted will not become an obstacle to them, and Tang Hanxiao may have found the answer and direction in the so many years of singing.
In any case, praise the creators who can write high-level aesthetic songs, and praise the songs.
