Why Jay Chou can stand at the top of the Chinese music scene

One is hard work. I have been training in music since I was a child and have been constantly exploring and daring to take challenges. I wrote 50 songs in a month before I got the chance to debut. And talent, unique creative talent. And comprehensively, if you listen to every singer's music now, Jay Chou's styles and elements are the most varied. Also unique, his pronunciation and sense of rhythm are unique. Because he is unique, he will not be eliminated by the market.

I remembered a clip from Jay Chou in "Let's Talk". He warned everyone to have their own skills in order to survive in society, so he started an epic Versailles, saying that he just learned a little music.

Jay Chou has reached the pinnacle in his professional field. Not only does he release new albums every year, but he also writes songs for other singers during this period. According to statistics, he has 223 songs since his debut, which is enough to be released. 23 albums.

Among them are the well-known "Elimination" by Eason Chan, "Say I Love You" and "Prague Square" by Jolin Tsai, "If You Also Heard" by Zhang Huimei, "Little" by Joey Yung, and Wen Lan's "Summer Wind" and so on. So in recent years, some people have lamented that all we listen to are Jay Chou's songs.

Perhaps music is really engraved in his bones. Writing songs is as simple as eating and talking.

"Dear That's Not Love" - ??Angela Chang said personally that Jay Chou wrote this song in front of her in 10 minutes, so everyone should know the quality.

Many people feel that the reason why Jay Chou never gets tired of listening to his songs is actually closely related to his creative ability. Maybe he has a strong foundation in classical music. Unlike other pop songs, the content of each of his songs is extremely rich. I won’t talk about music-related professional knowledge, but I will talk about what everyone can understand.

Generally popular songs are created using the AABB format, which means two verses, two choruses, repeated again, and sometimes both lyrics are the same. And many of Jay Chou's songs have double choruses, two different verses. What's more, "Dance in the Spring and Autumn Period" has 8 unreasonable melodies. The well-known blogger "Music Scholar" said that maybe he just ran out of melody in his brain and could have written 8 songs.

In terms of imagination, he also explained what "playing music" means, such as using table tennis to make rhythm in "Class Three Three", the classic chicken chop rice with an egg in "Dance of Spring and Autumn", and " "You Can Hear" reverse singing lyrics, "General" secretly recording the sound of an old man playing chess in the park, including "Pull", "Red Imitation", "Extra Large Shoes" and other unknown dialogues, placed in the song, can also give people A new look.

Not only that, Jay Chou also has a huge influence in the field of Chinese style. The audience for Chinese style songs such as "Chrysanthemum Terrace", "Thousands of Miles Away" and "East Wind Break" ranges from children of several years old to The 60-year-old man has expressed his love for Jay Chou's songs. I have also been puzzled for a long time, why Chinese style only uses the pentatonic scale, and can write every song with a different mood.
