589. Elegy
Many people have heard the song "Red-Cutted Crane" in their previous lives, and of course, most people may only remember that part of the song.
"And a group of red-crowned cranes..."
But the real story behind this song seems to have been forgotten.
Because this song was born very early in his previous life, it was indeed very popular when it was first released, but then it gradually disappeared, with the story behind it.
This song is actually a narrative song, which has the same effect as "It's Dawn".
However, "It's Dawn" describes the love of parents for their children beyond death, while "The Red-Cutted Crane" describes the love of girls for their red-Cutted Crane, beyond her life.
However, compared to "Dawn", the lyrics of "Red-Cutted Crane" can be said to be more simple and unpretentious compared to the lyrics of mainstream music today.
"There is a girl who has loved raising red-crowned cranes since she was a child
After she graduated from college, she still returned to the place where she raised cranes
But one day she saved the injured red-crowned crane
Sliding into the swamp, it never came up again.”
In the beginning of "The Red-Cutted Crane", Liang Xiqiong tells in a low voice that there is a girl who has loved raising red-crowned cranes since she was a child. Later, in order to save the injured red-crowned crane, she slid into the swamp and never came up again.
This is also an overview of the story behind "The Red-Cutted Crane".
The song "It's Dawn" has given many people a new understanding of Liang Xiqiong. Looking at China, Liang Xiqiong is called second, but no one can be called first, because when she sang, the emotional explosive power and rendering power that originated from the soul and from the deepest part of her heart is unique.
Obviously, this time, the song "Red-Cutted Crane" is another narrative song, a sad song.
The singer of the previous life's "Red-Cutted Crane" was delicate and soft, but Liang Xiqiong has always been good at opening and closing, with a strong and soft style.
"Have you ever heard of that little river
There is a girl she has been here
Have you ever heard of walking through this reed slope
There was a girl who left a song..."
Liang Xiqiong sang affectionately and selflessly, putting everyone into that scene and that picture.
The river, the reed slope, the girl, she once sang cheerful singing while walking.
"Why do the white clouds cry quietly
Why are the gusts of wind telling softly hi~hi~
There is also a group of red-crowned cranes flying by gently.”
Why is Baiyun crying quietly? Because there is a girl who loves to sing here?
There is also a group of red-crowned cranes flying gently here, hovering over the place where the girl walked.
Because she sacrificed her young life for the red-crowned crane.
There are not many lyrics for "Red-Cutted Crane", there are only a few sentences from beginning to end, and they are repeated all the time. When they first went there, the fans might not feel anything.
But after the second and third times, they seemed to see that at the place where the girl died, there was a group of red-crowned cranes circling there, unwilling to leave.
People seem to see that the girl is saying: The most likely to lose cranes in spring.
The crane house must be cleaned.
I love cranes and nature. Once I enter the wilderness, I forget all unpleasant things. I am willing to search for the vast wasteland, find ideals, find friendship, and find answers to life.
The reeds sprouted in the first half of the month, and now the white grass sprouted.
The cranes can fly far away...
The girl kissed the red-crowned crane beside her with her hands, so reluctant to leave...
She is not afraid, does not regret, but just does not want to...
The melody and lyrics of this song are simple and clear, but the things contained are sad.
Of course, compared to the emotional resonance caused by the previous song "Later", this song is obviously different.
After all, "Later" opens up everyone's memories buried deep in the depths, and although "The Red-Cutted Crane" is equally touching, it is a story of someone else after all.
Liang Xiqiong left after singing.
From the perspective of musical songs alone, "The Red-Cutted Crane" may not be considered mediocre, but it is definitely not a classic.
But when those simple lyrics bring a story, then the song will have a soul.
After Liang Xiqiong left the stage, the lights on the stage dimmed.
In the darkness, a sad voice sounded.
"She, a little girl who loves singing, once said to me in vain: "Teacher, can you give me a song?" I agreed happily. At that time, the September sun was gently illuminating her sweet smile. Who knew that this conversation turned out to be a farewell. That afternoon, on which sunny September afternoon, on which afternoon, she hurried to school with her backpack on her backpack, she was ruthlessly flooded by the surging traffic in the city. That day, she had just turned thirteen..."
Wang Yifan didn’t know if there was a similar story in this world.
In my previous life, Wang Yifan heard this song by chance on a radio station, about this song and the story of this little girl.
Many people may not be familiar with Zhang Heng's song. It seems that this song has not become famous, but Wang Yifan has a deep memory of this song.
He remembered that at that time, as he listened, he felt a little nervous and had the urge to cry.
It was obviously someone else’s story, but why, when it sounded, it felt so distressing.
"There are no cars coming and going in heaven", Wang Yifan did not look for other singers, but sang on stage.
Because of this song, he fell in love with listening to the radio and ordering songs, because it is very different from simply listening to records.
When the radio orders, announcers often tell the stories behind the songs.
"No car coming in heaven" is one of them.
Perhaps because Wang Yifan was inspired, or his emotional narration, and the background music full of sadness, suddenly, many people in the entire workers' gymnasium became quiet.
The spotlight was on the middle of the stage, and Wang Yifan's figure appeared there.
This is Wang Yifan's second time on stage.
Under normal circumstances, there should be loud cheers in the audience, but at this moment, under the influence of such a sad atmosphere, silence is better than sound at this moment.
No one makes a sound.
"The sky in September is vaguely clear
Many stories in the sunshine are slowly brewing
Cars come and go, cars come and go
A thirteen-year-old girl went to class with her schoolbag on her back
The wind was flowing gently that afternoon..."
As the singing sounded, everyone seemed to be able to see that on that September afternoon, a sunny afternoon, a cute little girl, carrying her schoolbag, jumped and jumped happily on the way to class.
"Child, can you hear a sound
Cars come and go, cars come and go
In the end, did you see the angel flying..."
For some reason, the fans suddenly felt like they were caught in their hearts, as if they saw the little girl who was innocent and lively singing songs the moment before, drowned in the traffic.
Wang Yifan's voice suddenly became louder, as if he wanted to vent the sadness and resentment in his heart.
"The moon is high, the night is long
The direction of fate blows in the air
Dear child, what is auspiciousness
Is there any light of God in the coming and going?..."
