Chapter 399: Chapter 378: Prelude to Water lody: How Long Will the Full Moon Last_1
Lin Yuan, of course, understands the astonishnt of the recording engineer.
If he were to place himself in the perspective of a Blue Starian, Lin Yuan would also be shocked.
Just like the shock he felt when he first heard this song in his previous life, and the admiration and fondness for the author of the song, there was the aura of a magnificent work coming right from the first line of the song:
How long will the full moon last, as I ask the azure sky with a cup of wine…
If not created by a top master with excellent skills in lyric composition, how could the “Prelude to Water lody: How Long Will the Full Moon Last” be written?
Yes!
The song Lin Yuan prepared for this ti is the famous “Prelude to Water lody”!
The author of the song…
Resident of the Eastern Slope, Su Shi!
If Tang Bohu beca a talented man known to all through visual artworks and a certain degree of beautification from people, then Su Shi, as a representative of the highest achievent in literature during the Song Dynasty, truly mastered all areas of poetry, lyrics, singing, and painting, even without any over-beautification!
The “Prelude to Water lody” created by him is particularly well-known, a tiless classic that has been passed down for countless years and cherished by people generation after generation!
Including this work, many of Su Shi’s works are eternally popular, admired, and worshipped by people from generation to generation!
Unfortunately, such a legendary figure does not exist on Blue Star.
But now, Lin Yuan brings this classic Song lyric to light in the form of a song!
Faced with such a classic, it’s no wonder that the recording engineer exclaims that this is the most perfect song lyrics he has ever seen in his life, there is no other!
Of course.
As a Song lyric, the true lody of “Prelude to Water lody” is lost to oblivion. The version obtained by Lin Yuan is a re-composed work based on the original lyric –
“Hoping for Endless Love” sung by Teresa Teng.
This song is part of the poetry songs album “Listening to the Faint lody” released by Teresa Teng in 1983.
This album is a classic masterpiece of Teresa Teng’s personal entertainnt career at its peak, also the first record she personally planned. Different from other albums, all twelve songs in this record are selected from Song lyrics, which are literary masterpieces tested by history of over a thousand years. The combination of classical and modern pop music, sung by Teresa Teng with her innate sentintal feelings, is elegant, serious yet gentle, and emotionally rich, quite a Tang and Song style.
As ti goes on, the worldly dust of the years has not been able to cover up the beautiful radiance of Teresa Teng, but rather reveals an extraordinary charm with the passage of ti.
This song “Hoping for Endless Love” received great popularity as soon as it was released, was later covered by many singers, and has been renowned as one of Teresa Teng’s tiless hits!
Among them, Faye Wong, the Queen of Singing from the Celestial Dynasty, also covered this song.
Because of Faye Wong’s influence, many people even don’t know that the original singer of this song is actually Teresa Teng, and they think that it is sung by Faye Wong.
But the original singer is Teresa Teng, this is very important and should be emphasized three tis.
Faye Wong herself is also a fan of Teresa Teng.
On one occasion, Faye Wong sang at a concert commorating Teresa Teng. As the music began, the big screen showed photos of Teresa Teng. Faye Wong, who originally had her back to the screen, suddenly turned around, her hands holding the microphone and looked at Teresa Teng in reverence, her posture modest like a student.
No one has ever seen Faye Wong like that.
So people might ask, why is the version by Faye Wong more famous?
We don’t have to use Teresa Teng’s early death as an explanation here.
Many people must have heard the song “Don’t Want to Grow Up” by She.
But few people know that this song is based on the most popular the from Mozart’s Symphony No.40 as the main lody of the chorus.
However, Faye Wong has her strength, her version is also very excellent, and the quality of the song is indeed excellent. Therefore, not only Teresa Teng’s version is provided by the System, but also versions by Faye Wong and others are customized by the System.
Furthermore…
Regarding this song, in fact, there has been a discussion in the outside world that so people believe that the composition of this song is not up to par with the lyrics.
This is, in fact, perfectly understandable.
How many composers can match Su Shi’s lyrics?
You should know that “Prelude to Water lody” is regarded by so in the literary world as the pinnacle of Song lyrics, the only one who can contend with it in the field of Song lyric is Xin Qiji, while here Yi An’s Residency might be added as well, only the first two, belonging to the bold style, have more comparability.
So even go as far as to claim that “Prelude to Water lody” dominates today’s music, rated as the first among Song lyrics.
So this is a lethal proposition.
First appears “How long will the moon last”, then write a lody according to such a high-level Song lyric, it’s not a task that ordinary people can accomplish.
The ability to make the lody not inferior is already very rare.
As for the performance alone, it must be solidified by Singers of the caliber of Teresa Teng and Faye Wong, those who do not have extraordinary vocal talents need not apply.
This is why Lin Yuan chose Jiang Kui.
Lin Yuan can see the shadow of such top singers as Teresa Teng and Faye Wong in Jiang Kui.
Although it’s not completely the sa –
No one can be completely the sa as others.
But in terms of vocal cords, timbre, skills, and other aspects, Jiang Kui is now the most suitable choice Lin Yuan can think of.
Lin Yuan did not specifically arrange which version for Jiang Kui.
He planned to polish a version that belongs to himself and Jiang Kui, blending Teresa Teng’s classic and Faye Wong’s ethereal features according to Jiang Kui’s own voice style.
Songs should vary from person to person.
This is why Lin Yuan uses the System’s songs, but tries to produce them according to the vocalist’s voice in the recording process.
Perhaps by the ti the song is officially recorded, adjustnts will be made to the arrangent.
The lody won’t make any drastic changes now, even if Lin Yuan used the character card of Yang Zhongming, he wouldn’t know where to begin the change.
To recreate Su Dongpo’s “Prelude to Water lody” in its authentic musical essence, it’s too difficult.
Even if the outside world comnts that “Prelude to Water lody” is a work where the lyric exceeds the lody, Lin Yuan can only admit it.
This song lyric is indeed brilliantly attractive!
In a world without Su Shi, tossing out such a song is tantamount to throwing a bomb that’s heavier than a bombshell!
“Use ‘How Long Will the Full Moon Last’ as the title of the song.”
The song title used by Teresa Teng and Faye Wong is “Hoping for Endless Love”.
Releasing this song during the Mid-Autumn Festival, Lin Yuan would also consider this title, because it’s more suitable for the occasion.
However, this is the Lunar New Year’s release, so ‘How Long Will the Full Moon Last’ is more appropriate.
This is also the na used by the original lyric.
The recording engineer surely has no objection to this.
While Lin Yuan starts to produce the accompanint for “Prelude to Water lody”, Jiang Kui also starts to ponder about her singing strengths, seriously going to find relevant teachers to do so practice, even turning down all her current appointnts…
It’s not any last-minute cramming.
The pressure of December is simply too high, she has to do sothing to feel more confident.
This December is destined to shake the nerves of the music world!
