Last night, "Singer 2019" ended the third phase of the competition, teacher Liu Huan sang a suitable song "Take the Earth to Wander", which is a domestic science fiction movie to be released on the first day of the New Year, adapted from the theme song of Liu Cixin's novel of the same name "The Wandering Earth" (first with a private goods, I hope everyone can buy tickets to support the domestic science fiction film); Yang Kun got the first place with a riotous song; and Qi Yu's "Birds and Fish" has a good wind evaluation, but the results are average.
In fact, the rankings of these two issues are quite fanatic, for example, although the song of the escape plan in the last period is generally infectious, it really should not be the last place, which is a bit incomprehensible; and the "Ballad of the Horse" sung by Zhang Xin, who is at the bottom of this issue and eliminated, is actually very expressive, but it is the last... this......
Zhang Xin sang "Ballad of horses" in the third period
So today, let's talk about "The Ballad of the Horse" and the folk song group Wang Feeding Horse, which I thought should be popular many years ago. In fact, I originally wanted to take this article as a title called "The king feeds the horse is not red, the heavens are difficult to tolerate", but considering that I shouted so much five years ago, I am really embarrassed to poison the milk again...
Wang Feeding Horse is a folk group from Inner Mongolia, the older brother Wang Feeding Horse is the lead singer of the band, and the younger brother Wang Tianyi is in charge of the band's other instruments, although the row looks a little cold, and the music played is not complicated to anywhere, just "ordinary" folk rock, but they can sing into your heart with simple but ear-catching melodies and porcelain lyrics.
Yes, every time I hear the song of the king feeding the horse, I can always think of this word: porcelain.
The king feeds the horses
Over the years, many folk singers have been on fire, but without exception, it always seems that there is always a bit of a sub-three-way. Needless to say, Rao is Zhao Lei, who looks very well-behaved and honest, and has also written a song like "Biting Spring", which is directly defined as a yellow song by so-and-so.
But Wang Fed Ma did not, and listened to their two albums over and over again, which depicted reality in white and carved bones, such as "Brother Wang next door, sometimes lonely and lonely, he has a television set, watching entertainment news and news broadcasts"; for example, "Three years ago, you worked at the bathing center, and you had to send your brother five thousand yuan a month."
But they also always have inexplicable poetry, such as in "Forever Eighteen": "In the morning I will feed two horses, and the master said to me, I did not answer, because I am a mute"; or in "The rain is coming", "He does not know Bob Dylan, but Bob Dylan knows him".
Wang Feeding Horse's self-titled album
I love the lyrics of Wang Feeding Horse, and they remind me of memories of learning to play drums with another band drummer many years ago, when I was only eighteen years old.
The guy was an Inner Mongolian man from Xilin Gol, and he went out of his way to correct me over and over again, saying, "You must step on the porcelain, and the sound of the closed cymbals that comes out is good." ”
I don't know why I remembered that feeling and sound for years, but even more unexpectedly, I found that "porcelain" feeling again in a folk song group from Xilingol, Inner Mongolia, many years later.
Midi Story 丨 Obsessive-compulsive disorder sufferers
Five years ago in Shanghai's Sanjia Port, I mixed into the midi volunteer team and hid in a crumbling tent, when I never knew the first stage came "It was his shining, always fearless eighteen-year-old." ”
Frankly speaking, Wang Feeding Horse is not the kind of combination that is known for singing, and the lyrics that have been repeated ten thousand times, the trembling tail note, are difficult to say perfectly handled - even a little powerless feeling, but isn't that feeling exactly young?
After I came back from Midi, I did an issue of "Midi Story", in fact, I just wanted to play the song "Eighteen Forever" in that episode.
In fact, it is also true that countless people later wanted the playlist of that episode in the message, but unfortunately, with the influence of rock paradise, I am afraid that there is really no way to make them popular.
Even if Zhang Xin sang "The Ballad of the Horse" on the stage of "Singer", there is a high probability that they still can't be red, after all, they don't have the characteristics of some popular folk singers - neither a cannon nor a cock flying in the sky, if you sing "A gust of wind wakes me up from napping, the nurse shouts, it's time to take medicine" such lyrics to the girl, most of them can only change back to a pair of white eyes.
However, I still want to tell you very sincerely that Wang Feeding Horse is really a folk song group that deserves your good listening, and "Ballad of the Horse" is really not their best song.
But if they can only red one song, I don't mind why "Forever Eighteen" and "Doronnur" didn't become street songs, I just hope that the music of these two brothers can reach the ears of more listeners.
Because whenever I think of such porcelain music in this world, it is always a very reassuring thing.
