Fei Yuqing and the era to which he belonged
As a big fan of musician Fei Yuqing, I listened to all of his albums. Because of loyalty, listen to the works of other singers, taste the same as chewing wax. Because of his deep love, he has never been disappointed in his musical style. Fei Yuqing, a pure singer, a simple musician, he does not belong to this noisy and turbulent era. This muddy human world and the pure musical world seem to be incompatible. This noisy downtown only reflects his purity.
Singing, for most singers, is just a means of making a living, or a way to show off their skills, or a tool to become famous, and I think many of them distort the soul of singing. Music, for some so-called musicians, is nothing more than a capital of ostentation, a step to fame, who spoils the essence of music. Whenever I saw the hoarse performance on the stage, and heard the roar that didn't look like a human voice, especially those games that were purely high-pitched, I could only walk away silently. It's not that I don't understand music, it's that I don't understand, how good music has become like this.
Fortunately, there is also Fei Yuqing and his music. He restored the original appearance of music: the lyrics and the soundtrack complement each other, the soundtrack serves the lyrics, each instrument exists only to express the lyrics, and by no means the opposite, and now the situation in the music world is precisely that the instruments drown out the lyrics, we are immersed in the noise of the soundtrack, forget the lyrics and emotions, and even do not know how much we understand. However, Fei Yuqing made me understand that the immortal charm of music lies in the emotions hidden in the lyrics, and of course, those soundtracks are also indispensable.
Fei Yuqing also made people understand that the relationship between singing and scoring should be: singing is the soul and the lead, and the soundtrack is only cooperation and service, and it is by no means the opposite. Most of the so-called music now makes singing an accessory to the instrument, and the gorgeous piano and accompaniment not only drown the singer, but also engulf the audience. Fei Yuqing's singing hovers over the soundtrack and blends into the instruments. He is the real singer. Fei Yuqing's musical world is aesthetic. Every song he sang was breathtakingly beautiful. Listen carefully, the treatment of each musical sentence is exquisite, and the interpretation of each musical note is gorgeous. Each of his masterpieces is a model of beauty. If his songs are divided according to the content of the singing, then they can be roughly divided into two categories: one is the thought of the homeland, the love of the hometown, and the other is the love of love.
First listen to his hometown thoughts and hometown love masterpieces. "Send you a handful of dirt" integrates the love for the motherland and the hometown into a handful of the soil of the hometown, because "this soil, the spring thunder has been hit, the wildfire has burned, the rhododendron has fallen layer by layer; this soil, the ancestors have cultivated, the enemy has stepped on, you and I have walked hand in hand", patriotism and love for the family, become so real, the homeland homeland, is in the hands of this soil that you and I have held hands to walk, straight to every overseas naked child, tears, call everyone who has the feeling of home, how can it be!
"Dream Camel Bell" interprets the thick nostalgia in the slightest, touching and heartfelt. Looking at the hometown from afar, the liver and intestines are broken----- "climbing the peak to look at the hometown, the yellow sand is long"; missing the hometown, the earth is desolate------ "the yellow sand blows the old years, blowing the old thoughts of my thoughts"; at this time, the hometown thoughts have been sublimated into the thoughts of the homeland, and the wanderers have risen to the whole of the wanderers, because the blood and tears of history are soaked in the homeland------ "the wind and sand can't blow the blood marks printed in history, and the wind and sand can't blow away the blood and tears of the pale begonias", so far, the emotions representing the thoughts of all the wanderers have reached a climax------ How many times tonight, the dream returned to Qin Guan", the sound of camel bells, faintly dreaming.
Listen to his perfect interpretation of love for each other. "A Thousand Miles Away" makes people feel that Jay Chou returned this song to the people who really belong to him, and only Fei Yuqing can sing the deep affection and persistence of this "Thousand Miles of Love"; "A Cut Of Plum" interprets the affectionate feelings of "asking what is the love of the world, and teaching people to live and die together"; "Nanping Evening Bell" floats with the wind with long acacia and faint sadness, accompanied by silent watchfulness; "Under the Silver Moonlight" slowly tells the pain and persistent pursuit of lost love, allowing people to give unlimited sympathy to men who have lost love.
Quite representative of Fei Yuqing's affectionate aesthetic style is "Send jun". "Sending the King" recalls the beauty of spending time together from the perspective of a resentful woman in the tone of a woman who thinks of women, tells the sadness of sending farewell, hints at the pain of missing, and looks forward to the joy of reunion, and achieves the wonderful effect of mourning without hurting, pain without suffering. The unique instrumentation, the melodious yangqin, the quiet lute, the sadness of the wooden fish, and the rotation of the flute, transformed a painful parting into an aesthetic feast. It seems that the departure of a negative person is not the fault of Bo Qinglang, nor is it the creation of people from ancient times, but the original appearance of Bo Qing and Huan Yan in love: even if the heart is unwilling, knowing that it is useless, it is also necessary to say: All the way!
"Amorous is always ruthlessly hurt" is Fei Yuqing's unique interpretation of thousand-year-old love. In this era when love is not believed and love has become a treasure in the world, how many people will stick to love? "There is wind and sand in my eyes, my heart does not melt for anyone, my tears spill all over the desert and do not blossom, I do not want to worry about you." 」 After the love of the past has been weathered, it still insists on "giving the wandering love a home, giving the lonely person the truth." He broke the truth of love in one word: amorous is always ruthlessly hurtful. However, the moving part of love is that even if you know the truth that "amorous people are always heartless and sad", you still have to persuade people in love to "why bother to cling to who is the most sincere to whom", once you get out of obsession and are willing to believe in love again, then even if "the wind and sand have been blowing for thousands of years, deeply buried in the love of my life", I am still insisting on love, although you do not know at all, so why bother?
Fei Yuqing's singing style is gorgeous and changeable, swaying and colorful. There are humorous and humorous works that make people can't help but be funny, but also have local characteristics and exotic styles. "The Girl of Dabancheng" sings with a very western style, "The boy is willing to be beaten by the sixteen thousand leather whip of the beloved girl", playful and funny, making the corners of people's mouths grin up; the Gansu folk song "Scraping the Wind" is sung from the New Year of the First Month, the Qingming of March, and the Duanyang of May to the Qixi of July and Chongyang in September, the song style is bright, the local characteristics of Gannan are strong, and the ending sound and lining words of "NaHayi Ya Hey" vividly express the industriousness and kindness, love of life and that special playfulness of the Gannan people.
"See You Again Willow Leaf Green" is a very special one. "See Liu Yeqing Again" takes the artistic conception of "In the past, I used to be in the past, Yang Liu Yiyi; now I come to think, rain and snow", to the effect that "the willow leaves and peach blossoms bloom, and still can't see you come back", but the sorrow of leaving people in the "Book of Poetry", the pain of being alone, there is no trace, and there is no trace. It is melodic and breezy, surprising and stunning. Expressing sad emotions with a brisk rhythm and expressing heavy sadness with a lively melody is, in any case, a great challenge to any musical work. Personally, I think it was a perfect attempt.
Fei Yuqing's singing, deep into the essence of the song, his music, should belong to the real music world, unfortunately, his aesthetic music is far away from this noisy era. The musical era that belonged to him alone is far from coming.
I have been waiting for a long time on the road to this era. Because, he has long been on the road to this era.
