My singer girlfriend is super fierce

With the strong recommendation of his classmates, Liu Minkang also became interested.

"Okay, today I will use the song "Childhood" as an example to tell you about the appreciation of the lyrics."

As he spoke, Liu Minkang searched for song titles on the teaching computer. The results showed a bunch of songs called "Childhood", but none of them were sung by Ye Zhiqiu.

"The song hasn't been officially released yet."

“Can’t find it on the software!”

"Teacher Liu, let me help you!"

Enthusiastic students actively came to the stage, found the video in a few seconds, and played it on the projector.

Seeing the environment of the primary school classroom where Ye Zhiqiu and Yu Caiwei were in the picture, Liu Minkang was slightly startled, and a hint of relief flashed deep in his eyes.

As an educator, he has always paid close attention to and personally participated in education in many backward areas.

In fact, music is a relatively expensive subject to learn, especially for poor families. But in Liu Minkang's view, music should not be like a "castle in the air" for children from poor families. Instead, it has the power to infect and inspire, and can bring strength to people.

Turning my attention back to the video, I could see that the picture was shot with a mobile phone. The clarity was okay, but the sound quality was not that good. Fortunately, some noise could be heard clearly.

The video started with Yu Caiwei singing. Gradually, the entire classroom fell into silence, with only Yu Caiwei's clear, ethereal, and gentle voice like a lullaby floating slowly.

In the audience, Liu Minkang looked slightly surprised, but also quite happy in his heart.

He didn't expect that Yu Caiwei also sang a new song, and this song was also excellent.

It should also have been written by Ye Zhiqiu. Liu Minkang thought to himself that this song has a simple melody and is catchy. It is indeed very suitable for children. It can be recommended to schools around the world as a children's song later...

Soon, it was Ye Zhiqiu's turn to sing.

The light and carefree singing seemed to drift slowly from the sunny afternoon, along with the cool wind under the big banyan tree in the village.

【One inch of time, one inch of gold

老师 说 过 寸 金 买寸 光阴

Day after day, year after year

A confused childhood...]

After the song ended, the singing seemed to still be echoing over the classroom. Many audience members looked thoughtful, their thoughts already drifting into the distance.

The silence was broken with the first round of applause, and then a wave of warm applause sounded.

Liu Minkang took a deep breath, stood on the podium again, and asked: "Which classmate just recommended this song?"

Under the stage, a male student raised his hand.

Liu Minkang smiled and said: "The lyrics of this song are indeed very good."

"Then what do you think is good about it?"

The male classmate thought for a moment and said hesitantly: "Because...it can impress people?"

"I don't know why. It's obviously uncomplicated lyrics, but when I listen to it, I feel like I'm recalling my childhood."

"That's right." Liu Minkang motioned to the male student to sit down and continued: "Good lyrics can arouse emotional resonance in the audience. This is the best thing about this song."

"The catchy melody, from the perspective of a child, is a 'heartless', happy lyrics, without any trace of sadness in the song. But to older people, it makes people feel very emotional and nostalgic for their childhood." That youthful time, the passing years and the ignorant childhood.”

"This is the charm of words, and this is what I have always emphasized."

"When we create, we don't have to blindly pursue the accumulation of gorgeous rhetoric. First of all, we should not deliberately do anything. Instead, we should use ordinary and popular language to express our inner thoughts as much as possible..."

Next, Liu Minkang gave a vivid appreciation lesson using the lyrics of "Childhood" as an example.

At the end of the course, some students raised their hands and asked loudly, "Teacher!"

"Then if I write with simple and easy-to-understand words, can I write the same song as Ye Zhiqiu?!"

A burst of laughter erupted at the scene, and Liu Minkang also smiled and said, "Yes, and no."

"Simple lyrics do not mean simple connotations or simple techniques. Because they are performed in the form of singing, lyrics often pay attention to rhyme, rhythm and word matching. We will talk about these skills in later professional courses."

"At the same time, it is not easy to write simple lyrics with connotations, especially for people with little experience. Experience comes from life, and its accumulation is not something that can be achieved overnight."

Looking at the students in the audience who were listening carefully, Liu Minkang said: "So, I still have to remind you."

"Everyone should not be too ambitious. If you read more, think more, and try more, your level will naturally rise. There is no need to set the song "Childhood" just now as your goal."

"The lyrics of this song are a masterpiece that simplifies complexity and combines great achievements." Speaking of this, Liu Minkang sighed, "Actually, I personally feel that this song is the best song in the entire Chinese music scene in the past two years. This is an eternal classic.”

In the audience, all the students were extremely surprised. They did not expect that Liu Minkang would rate this song so highly.

After all, to most people, this song just has a cheerful melody and quite appropriate lyrics.

At the same time, on the Internet, the popularity of "Childhood" has not decreased with the passage of time, but has been soaring.

Although this song only has a "mobile phone recording" version with poor sound quality online, it has not affected its popularity at all. In just two days, it has already reached the top three of the "Hot Song List" on major music platforms.

As an official media reported the news and released the video of Ye Zhiqiu and Yu Caiwei singing in a primary school class, tens of millions of families heard the entire song on TV.

Then, "Childhood" went straight to the top of the hot song list with extremely rapid momentum.

As for the protagonists of the incident, Ye Zhiqiu and Yu Caiwei, their leisurely vacation was inevitably affected by this incident.

Countless interview invitations from various media were rejected by Ye Zhiqiu on the grounds that he was currently filming. His manager Song Mei also called. Although she was already well aware of Ye Zhiqiu's ability to "make trouble", her tone remained the same. Very helpless.

You can sing if you want, but at least notify the company in advance!

He came up with a classic that has been handed down from generation to generation without saying a word, and the Internet was full of fermentation. The company only got the news. There was no publicity at all in the early stage, so it was very passive, okay?

Generally speaking, such a classic song is a "king bomb" level resource for singers. It must be carefully produced and promoted before being released, so as to maximize the benefits as much as possible.

If it works well, it is definitely not an exaggeration to say that a song will last a lifetime. There are many singers with this example.

However, now that "Childhood" has topped the charts, it turns out that it is still a version that was beaten on the table as an instrumental accompaniment and recorded on a mobile phone. This is ridiculous! ?

We are professionals, and if our peers see it, they will probably laugh out loud.
