Chapter 75
Music has no borders, but people's hearts make it have borders.
When I was in junior high school, someone told me that he only listened to songs from a certain star group, but not from all other stars.
Well, the first feeling in my heart at that time: narrow-mindedness.
Maybe, he thinks that the songs of the star group have more Chinese characteristics, and listening to their songs will make them look more patriotic.
But, is this related to patriotism?
Huh, many people nowadays prefer foreign language songs, such as Korean and Japanese.
Well, how to say it, this is everyone's personal preference, and there is nothing to say.
Let’s talk about myself. I like music more, especially pure music. Even if the background music in TV series is good, I will like it very much, and even hum it often.
Well, this feeling of loving music has been started since I was a child...
When I was six or seven years old, I watched Jacky Cheung's version of Journey to the West. I thought it was very good to have a lot of background music in it, and then I would hum it often, so even if I haven't watched that drama for a long time, the background music was still clear in my mind.
Later, I watched "Superman Diga" at the age of nine, well, I like it very much!
The background music in "Superman Diga" is very touching, and the expressions of the actors in it are also very good. Sometimes I can't tell whether it is the beautiful background music that makes the drama beautiful or the acting skills of the actors that make the drama unforgettable. Perhaps, it is complementary.
Other children may just watch Superman fight monsters simply, but I watch more than that, I also see the emotions expressed by the protagonist and the values promoted by this drama.
There is no doubt that among all the Superman dramas I have watched, only "Superman Diga" has the most feeling, because that year, I became the light!
When you like a show, you can't help but like the background music and songs of that show.
So, I began to like Japanese songs, especially anime.
I like to watch "Dragon Ball GT" and "Naruto", so I naturally like the songs in it!
I like to listen to Japanese songs because the anime is good.
The good look of Japanese anime is not only due to its good picture, but also due to its good values expressed.
Like "Superman Diga", I can think of protecting the earth and maintaining world peace! Also, the children on the earth are light!
Like "Naruto", I can think of dreams, friendships, and the future of Konoha Village, and the children represent the future!
If it were "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf", all I could think of was the lyrics at the beginning of the theme song...
Later, after I went to college, I accidentally watched the first Korean drama in my life, "So Is a Beautiful Man", so I was attracted!
The plot is innovative, and there are many funny points and the music is nice, so naturally I like it!
After the show, I made the second Korean drama "My Girlfriend is the Nine-Tailed Fox". Oh my God! My heart was moved!
When I first watched it, I felt that the male protagonist was not good and wanted to give up the show. However, after I endured watching the first episode, I naturally wanted to watch the second episode, so I couldn't help but watch it...
Finally, the hero’s more and more like the eye, and the plot becomes more and more heart-wrenching.
At first I watched it happily, but later I watched it very much, but in the end I was moved to tears. A drama that can make the audience laugh and cry is considered a successful drama, after all, it touches people's hearts.
Because I watched these two Korean dramas, I gradually began to like Korean songs and could also feel the beauty of Korean songs.
Not all Korean dramas are good, just like Chinese dramas, not every one can win the hearts of the people, but some are always excellent.
Although I can't hear what the singer sings about Japanese and Korean songs, I think the melody is good, especially when the singer's voice can match the melody well, I will recognize that song.
The most natural "position" of music is without lyrics. Combine sound and melody together and forget the meaning of the lyrics. That wonderful auditory enjoyment is what I like.
Just like Jay Chou’s debut, even if he can’t hear his pronunciation clearly, his voice has been integrated with the melody of the song, which will create a special auditory enjoyment.
Therefore, when I listen to Korean and Japanese songs, I listen to feelings, emotions, and music that can touch my heart.
Our Chinese songs have the excellence of our Chinese songs, but foreign language songs also have the beauty of foreign language songs. It is not impossible to learn to appreciate them.
Similarly, even if the human heart has national boundaries, I hope that the human heart can be more objective and not overly subjective.
Our country is powerful, and there is no doubt that the people do not need to belittle or discriminate against other countries' cultural works to highlight the strength of our country's cultural strength.
True strength is not to belittle others to improve oneself, but to be able to objectively examine one's own shortcomings, and to appreciate other people's strengths, learn to learn from others' strengths and weaknesses, and continue to make progress.
The beauty of music lies in its borders. (To be continued)
