1, Return from Buddhist Scriptures

As the happy ending of The Journey to the West, the music with big tonality often gives people a sense of perfection. At the beginning of the soundtrack, mixed chorus is used, which is magnificent, as if there is a feeling of universal salvation, and the material of the opening music of Journey to the West is directly and completely used, giving people a perfect feeling of both ends.

The motive of the main song of the song comes from the theme of the chorus of the theme song "Dare to Ask Where the Road is", which is more coherent and connected in music, without feeling isolated, and the audience can feel that it is indeed the music of Journey to the West.

The reason why the song has auditory impact is that the author boldly adopts breakthrough irregular paragraphs. Trilogy is my favorite way of composing music, which can often express the artistic conception of songs incisively and vividly.

2. Daughter's love

There is no doubt that it is a classic hit in Journey to the West, and I like it myself. First of all, the lyrics, directed by Yang Jie, are well written, which can simply summarize the story meridians, the queen's tenderness and the Tang Priest's determination.

Personally, I think this song has words first, and then the composer, Mr. Xu Jingqing, composed by words. The composer skillfully developed it into a very moving song with only a very simple material.

The melody of the title song "Ducklings, Ducklings and Butterflies Fly Together" has four sentences. The first three sentences are firmly feathered, and finally it ends with a pentatonic chord. What a clever thing! In fact, this usage is very effective for writing folk songs, which often sounds good.

3. Green Bodhi Tree

This song is very interesting. The musical motivation started with the score of Pig Bajie, and then developed into such a solemn and full tune. This is the charm of music!

Li Jingxian's voice is very nice and mellow. I heard her sing this song "Green Bodhi Tree" as if listening to Guanyin Bodhisattva singing, full of solemn feelings.

4. Tianzhu Girl

This is the most challenging song of Journey to the West! How to express Indian music in China's fairy tales is a problem that must be solved. In 1980s, many Indian songs were popular in China, so there was no material that could not be borrowed.

Every nation in every country has its own unique musical style, and once you know which country or even nation you belong to at will, you should grasp their "particularity" instead of "universality" to exaggerate their "particularity", just like drawing a cartoon and trying to exaggerate a person's characteristics, which will make him more like that person.

Different from China's folk songs, Indian music tries to avoid "Fa" and "Xi", but emphasizes them a lot. The pronunciation of "Fa" in "Tianzhu Girl" has been repeatedly emphasized, and so has "Xi".

Another is spoken English with local characteristics. For example, Tibetan songs often have "Araliso" and so on, which reminds people of that nation and country. The recurring "Shariwa" in "Tianzhu Girl" is very Indian.

The moon is bright (empty) on a clear day.

This tape was written by Mao Ye, who has read the introduction before and has no impression. What was written on TV was sung by Zhong Ruichi, the actor of Tang Priest, with some minor differences in melody.

For example, the phrase "master and apprentice passionately sweep the tower" and so on, but the biggest thing is that the tape sings "clear sky and bright moon" and the TV sings "clear sky and bright moon", but listening to the two versions, it is indeed sung by two people, but I don't know what this is like, so I don't mention the singer's singing skills.

This song appeared when Tang Priest and the Monkey King were sweeping the pagoda in the sacrificial country. Simple and neat single paragraph, repeating two lyrics and adding an ending, showing a "pious" state of mind!

You don't need to sketch too many patterns to decorate, so you can't show "piety". It's concise and clear. Cleverly, the development of songs is a very simple melody line, from top to bottom.

This is a more powerful and perfect expression of the word "simplicity" that the composer wants to express, in order to show the piety of the Tang priest's master and disciples sweeping the tower, and the simple musical form sets out a simple melody line! It's really wonderful! Clap your hands and scream

6. "Dare to ask where the road is"

I don't think this kind of easy-to-understand music needs too many words to elaborate, so it will look pale and powerless!

As the theme song of TV series, it has achieved unprecedented success, the revolution of new folk songs and the concept of pop music!

7. "Why go to the Western Heaven, away from Wan Li?"

Jason Wu sings this song better than Daughter Love! Singing such a beautiful and enchanting song while Xing Xian was dancing and holding Tang Yan's hand added a lot of color to the TV series.

Teacher Yan Su's handwriting is very beautiful. In the first four sentences, Xing Xian played peach blossom, plum blossom, peony and pear blossom, and he was confident in composing music. Jason Wu expressed it accurately.

Until that sentence "light a fragrant tea to welcome you, the stars are shaking and the clouds are floating", composers use short sentences, and often use progressive and repetitive composition techniques to form a contrast with the previous sentence, which has a sensational feeling because it is a demon.

The last climax sentence is a pen titled "Why the Western Heaven is Far from Wan Li", which is repeated twice to highlight, followed by a supplementary sentence, "Happiness is now, happiness is tonight", which is vivid and funny, and the music is very situational.

8. Song of the bottomless boat

A short and pithy song, and it doesn't follow the traditional "boat song" three-beat mode. According to the story, this boat song should be "Indian boat song", so the author added a lot of exotic features.

But I'm still not sure which country it belongs to. The tonality changes greatly, and it changes frequently between the main melody and the subordinate melody, adding a sense of mystery, but it feels like a fusion of Japanese folk songs, Indian folk songs and Hunan folk songs, especially like a land of fish and rice in Dongting.

Because the style is weird, it is difficult to grasp. Perhaps ordinary people prefer to accept easy-to-understand music, so they rank eighth, because it is really a very creative and distinctive song. The composer has the courage to write it in Journey to the West.

9. "Walk"

It's also a sketch. The background of the song was sung by the Tang King when he sent Tang Priest out of the city. The soundtrack is Li Jingxian, and on TV it is Yu Junjian. I still like Li Jingxian's singing. Go, go, go: 92.

10, "Five hundred years of vicissitudes"+"I can't blow away a little sadness"

Why put it together? Because they are all sung by Yu Junjian, I feel that the style of singing to him is similar. Yu Junjian's voice is tight, his pronunciation is tight, his body movements are tight, and he is very uncomfortable. He doesn't like it. He especially likes to shake his neck with his stiff body. These two songs are "weeping" for him!

It turns out that Ding Xiaoqing's version of "He Want to Be a Grass" is very comfortable, and the listener will really feel pity. Fortunately, the level of the work itself is still there, so it is still top-notch!
