Liu Huan’s status in the mainland music scene is unique. He has not written many songs, admittedly not many popular songs, has not produced many albums, and has not trained many singers. , but his contribution to the mainland music scene is unmatched by other singers. He has made outstanding contributions to the mainland music scene, like a needle that fixes the sea. Where he is, he is at the top.

The reason why he is considered the godfather of music is precisely because of this. We must also clearly realize that popularity cannot be used as a criterion to determine whether a singer is a godfather of music. Otherwise, based on the sales of "Heart is Too Soft" that year, is Ren Xianqi a godfather of music? Based on Jacky Cheung’s long-term record of occupying the top sales list, is Jacky Cheung the godfather of music? Jay Chou is the King of Asia, does anyone call him the godfather of music? No!

Although he did not come from a major, Liu Huan became famous in the music scene with his extraordinary talent and hard work. He studied French at the Beijing Institute of International Relations as an undergraduate, and eventually became a music professor at the University of International Business and Economics. From French to music, Liu Huan is able to handle two completely different fields with ease, which proves Liu Huan's strength from the side.

Of course, strength alone is not enough to make Liu Huan the "godfather of music." Liu Huan has led the trend and style of an era in music production. He has no shortcomings in music, including lyrics, composition, and arrangement. He is a leader in music, singing, and music education. Not only is he an outstanding singer and music professor, but he is also one of the first musicians in the mainland to apply computers to music production.

His musical quality makes him unique in large-scale events. He is the first choice singer for the theme songs of many large-scale evening parties in China. The theme songs of the Seventh National Games "Five Stars Invite Five Rings", The theme song of the Eighth National Games "The Flying of Life", the theme song of the Ninth National Games "Seeing the Rainbow Again", the theme song of the first East Asian Games "Rising East Asia", the English version of Beijing's Olympic bid song "GoodLuckBeijing Blessing Beijing" and " We Can", Beijing Olympics theme song "Me and You", etc. In this regard, no one in the Chinese music world can surpass Liu Huan, at least in the short term.

He is enthusiastic about public welfare and charity. He once went to Ningxia to teach music for a year with the Central Lecturers Group. In 1991, he launched a large-scale charity gala for the capital's literary and artistic circles for flood relief in East China. He was also the first person in the mainland to participate in the protection of wildlife. The musician for animal public service advertisements has repeatedly turned down lucrative commercial performances in order to participate in charity programs. When the mainland music scene participates in charity, he always takes the lead.

Many of his songs are not only highly popular, but also have far-reaching influence and are full of positive energy, such as the theme song of the TV series "Plainclothes Police", "Young Aspirations Don't Say Sadness", such as "The Curved Moon" , such as "Beijingers in New York" theme song "Millions of Questions", such as "Water Margin" theme song "Song of a Hero", etc. In addition, Liu Huan is also the first pop singer in mainland China to be stamped by China Post !

Liu Huan has outstanding musical talent, far-reaching works, enthusiasm for public welfare, and always insists on the front line of music education. It is precisely because of these qualities in Liu Huan that surpass other musicians that he is said to be: Liu Huan, the Godfather of Music The name is not in vain! ! !

In 1987, Liu Huan officially entered the music scene when he sang the theme song of "Snow City" "The Sun in the Heart". He is a musician who integrates lyrics, composition, arrangement, production, singing and music education. He is a musician in mainland China. One of the first musicians to use computers to compose, arrange and produce music. With his strong strength and unique singing skills, he has brought us too many classic music works such as "Song of a Hero", "Young Aspirations Don't Say Sorrows", "Millions of Questions", "Start Over", and "Confused Love" , "The Curved Moon", "Phoenix Flying", "Me and You" and other songs are still widely sung in China.

Liu Huan’s singing style is diverse, his voice is powerful, generous and adaptable, and his voice is calm, clean and natural. Music is his way of emotional catharsis. Beautiful melodies flow in his heart, and his songs contain his feelings about life. He regards music as life, devotes all his passion to music, and can get the greatest happiness from music.

Liu Huan has composed and performed countless masterpieces. He always stands on the podium to teach and educate people. He is committed to art education in colleges and universities. He imparts his love for music, gains and losses in creation, and singing skills without reservation. For his students, he is unfazed by honor and disgrace, is humble, low-key, and rigorous in life. He has always maintained a good public image and has good character and art. He is recognized as the king of Chinese singers and the godfather of mainstream Chinese music.

Only Luo Dayou, Li Zongsheng, and Cui Jian are qualified to be called the godfathers of Chinese pop music. The number, breadth and depth of Liu Huan's works, as well as his contribution to the music scene are far from the godfathers. Even compared with the legendary superstar Qi Qin, Liu Huan is at least one rank behind his younger brother.

Luo Dayou is a symbol and a benchmark. He is like a classical literati, who can not only write impassioned war slogans, full of the momentum of "going to the east to sweep away all the waves", but also has a lot of elegance of "the flowers have faded to red, green and apricots are small". In a sense, he It has transcended the category of pop music and become a higher cultural symbol. Some of his works have been included in middle school Chinese textbooks.

Lee Zongsheng is known as Rolling Stone Records’ “Millionaire Producer”.

In addition to creating a large number of classic works, he has also single-handedly created famous singers such as Sylvia Chang, Stephen Chow, Zhao Chuan, Zhang Xinzhe, Xin Xiaoqi, Muji, Liang Jingru, Chen Shuhua, Lin Yilian and other popular Chinese singers.

Cui Jian's rock and roll rock was groundbreaking, giving birth to Dou Wei, Zheng Jun, Zhang Chu, Tang Chao, and many other rock stars, leading an era!

Qi Qin’s genius-like creative talent, gorgeous golden voice, and simple singing style have made him the idol of many stars!

In comparison, Liu Huan’s works are not as good as the above masters in terms of richness of content, humanistic depth, diversity of popular elements, and support and influence on younger generations, so he can only be regarded as inferior at best. A qualified music professor is far from a godfather! Liu Huan being promoted to the altar can only show the lack of music masters in mainland China and the lack of public music appreciation ability and taste!

First of all, let me correct you. To be precise, Liu Huan is the godfather of pop music in mainland China. There is a gap in scope between this and the "godfather of Chinese music". After all, if (for example) you add Luo Dayou and Li Zongsheng Come in, no one of these three is better across the board than the other two.

When choosing the Olympic theme song, everyone knows it well. If you require a singer to be popular, national and international, and to ensure that there are no mistakes in the performance, then Mainland China can only be Liu Huan.

So it’s not that you’re awesome because you’re in the Olympics, but you’re in the Olympics because you’re awesome.

As mentioned above, Liu Huan's works have both national and international popularity. At this level, only Mr. Wang Luobin can compete with him in China in modern times.

Liu Huan is a typical musician who can teach and help the world. He is a university professor of music history. In addition, in recent years, he has been constantly discovering and supporting new talents: Yuan Yawei, Huo Zun, Jikejun Yi, Zhao Lei, etc. At this level, the only person who is better than Liu Huan in mainland China in modern times is teacher Gu Jianfen. In this regard, Li Zongsheng and Luo Dayou benefited from the relatively mature music industry in Hong Kong and Taiwan. They did earlier and more than Liu Huan, and their influence was greater than Liu Huan.

As mentioned above, Liu Huan's singing skills are at least reassuring to those "at the top". Not to mention the stability, although the vocal method is not the most advanced, it is enough to support the weight of his works. ***Ming's voice is deep and has a high pressure, so you won't feel any harshness when he sings high notes. In short, his singing skills are in the first echelon of Chinese pop music circles, and his singing skills are of high quality. In terms of singing skills, Liu Huan is obviously better than Li Luo, and only Li Zongsheng's invincible sense of language can compete with him.

Based on the above three points, Liu Huan is the unique godfather of pop music in mainland China and one of the godfathers of pop music in China as a whole.

The godfather is the father.

Even though Liu Huan’s singing skills are very high,

Chinese people are still not used to being called daddy.

Because dad is a very honorific term in China,

In addition to your own dad, you should call him dad.

If you want to call others dad,

For example, Liu Huan,

in addition to teaching people to sing,

also takes care of the food,

only in this way can he be called daddy.

But I have never heard of Liu Huan being in charge of food.

Therefore, Liu Huan is not qualified to be a godfather who teaches people to sing.

Of course, if anyone is interested,

would like to call Liu Huan Godfather.

That is his own business.

The first time I remember hearing Liu Huan sing was when he sang a cover of "Little Grass" that everyone across the country had heard. The police's "Young Aspirations Don't Tell the Sorrows" and "The Sun in the Heart" in Xuecheng are mostly covers of Taiwanese songs, among which Qi Qin's works are more. To be fair, Liu Huan's singing is indeed good, but his songwriting is not satisfactory. There are only a few works he has released, not to mention compared with Luo Dayou and Li Zongsheng (there is no comparison at all), and even with Wang Feng Daolang in China. But I don’t know why, but Liu Huan’s status in the Chinese music scene is very high. This time Liu Huan participated in Hunan Satellite TV's singer program, I am still looking forward to it, because his singing skills are indeed outstanding. If he can put down his pretentiousness and carefully select a few other people's good works to sing, he should be the king of singing. It's well deserved, but everyone has seen the result, so it goes without saying... personal preference, nothing more.

Only people who truly understand music will understand Liu Huan’s position in the music world.

For example, Liu Huan's song "Phoenix Flying" adopts the traditional pentatonic mode, combined with the Western harmony system, and boldly uses off-keying, which is groundbreaking in the music world. Don't talk about some other so-called ancient songs. I won't name them to avoid personal attacks by some idiot fans. These songs are just Western music disguised as ancient styles. At this time, someone must have said that Liu Huan's song is not good, not as good as XXX. At this time, I just want to say that some people like to drink sugar water, and some people like to drink red wine. There is no difference between the two, but the value of red wine is indeed higher than that of sugar water.

In the ending song "Love and Resentment" of the TV series "Hu Xueyan", Liu Huan integrated Peking Opera-style singing into modern songs. The style of the song was suitable for all ages and was loved by everyone. This was epoch-making at the time (in the 1990s) .

He composed "Night" for the "Chinese Good Songs" program, using semitone descending and semitone ascending, which I think other musicians would not dare to do. It also gives this song a unique Gothic style, and the arrangement is also very stylish, which can be said to be perfect

.

The theme song of the movie "The Wandering Earth", "Wandering with the Earth", uses the Western Medieval Dorian mode and the natural major

The perfect combination of the Dorian mode creates a There is a vastness of space, a sense of epicness and tragedy, and the natural major key expresses the hope and light of mankind. The feeling of the whole song is very suitable for the theme of the movie.

He also has many songs, which may not be as popular as other stars, but their musicality and creativity are among the best. I won’t say much more here. Let’s talk about his singing skills. I don’t think anyone doubts his singing skills. I dare say that there are very few singers who can sing better than Liu Huan now, not to mention that Liu Huan is no longer as good as he was at his peak. And the pitch accuracy is unparalleled.

In terms of instrumental music, few singers play more instruments than Liu Huanhui. Piano, guitar, erhu, jinghu, and even electronic music instruments, etc.

There is no problem with his moral character and style. Who has heard any negative news about Liu Huan in recent years?

Liu Huan’s students are also famous all over the world. Jike Junyi, Yao Beina, Zhao Lei, Yuan Yawei, etc. were all once Liu Huan’s students.

Many people’s understanding of Liu Huan is limited to "Song of Heroes" and the Beijing Olympics. Regardless of the music itself or its influence, you will find that Liu Huan is worthy of being the godfather of music.

Liu Huan's singing skills are quite outstanding. As far as the mainland music circle is concerned, Liu Huan should not be called the "godfather of music". "The Moon" are all very famous, especially "The Crooked Moon" can be said to be familiar to everyone. There were relatively few works after that, and the more famous "Song of a Heroic Man" and "Start Again" are considered masterpieces.

Generally speaking, mainland singers are affected by the general environment and there are very few actual singer-songwriters. Especially some people who were known as singer-songwriters during their debut almost no longer create music after becoming famous. For Hong Kong and Taiwan, The standard of veteran godfathers is quite different.

Many respondents mentioned Luo Dayou and Li Zongsheng. These two are indeed the "godfathers of the music industry". Their creative standards are several levels higher than Liu Huan's, but their singing skills are indeed inferior to Liu Huan's. There is another singer I like more, Zhou Huajian, who can be regarded as a "godfather". Both his composition and singing skills are first-rate.

Liu Huan is also relatively talented, and Liu Huan is not a pop singer at all, but a singer. It can only be said that Liu Huan's level is considered to be worthy of the title of "Godfather of Music" in the current mainland music scene. As for comparing with other big guys, I think it is still a bit inferior.

Measuring a singer's achievement is often not determined by how many popular songs he writes or how many best-selling albums he releases, but by a comprehensive assessment. Liu Huan's status in mainland music is untouchable and he is indeed worthy of the title of "Godfather of Music".

Liu Huan is an all-round musician, integrating lyrics, arrangement, composition, music education, singing and production. He is a music professor at the University of International Business and Economics and one of the first batch of people in the mainland music scene to apply computers to music. One of the musicians who produces music.

No matter what kind of job Liu Huan has, it will not delay his normal teaching at the university. And with decades of persistence, he has become very proficient in the professional knowledge of music. This coupled with personal understanding is better conveyed to his students. Therefore, Liu Huan is already an expert in music.

After acquiring the basic theoretical knowledge from books, Liu Huan still has the opportunity to continue practicing to make himself more and more mature.

In 1998, Liu Huan composed the theme song "Heaven and Earth in My Heart" for the large-scale domestic cartoon "Lotus Lantern", bringing his talent to the extreme. This song fits the plot of the cartoon very well and adds to the fun and appeal of the cartoon.

The song "Crescent Moon" sung by Liu Huan is even more popular in China. Liu Huan's beautiful voice vividly expresses people's longing for their hometown. It is a representative work of the connotation of Chinese popular music.

Liu Huan has developed more musical expertise through his rich creation and singing, which has had a profound impact on Chinese pop music.

Nowadays, young singers often participate in any song list. It is not about their ability but about who has more albums, whose album sales are better, and whose popularity is higher.

Not long ago, Cai Xukun, who just won the honor of "The Most Idol Influence of the Year" on the Asian New Song Chart, releases several albums every year, and the album sales are extremely high, easily reaching millions. He has written many songs and won many awards. He has a high number of fans on Weibo and is very popular, but few people have heard of this person.

I have never known what Cai Xukun does, what works he has produced, and which songs are widely sung. Anyway, I always see this person's name in the news for no reason. Moreover, he dresses in strange ways and often dyes his hair yellow.

People like Cai Xukun are the kind of little fresh meat with no works that are criticized by many people.

Although Liu Huan has not released any albums and has not written many songs, his songs are widely sung. A long time ago, some people have heard "Millions of Questions", "Crescent Moon", "Young Aspirations Don't Tell the Sorrows", etc., and many people still like them, especially young people.

Whenever Liu Huan sings his songs, they are classics and have a different charm. As for the works of Cai Xukun and others, none of them are outstanding so far. Although Liu Huan is not as popular as Xiao Xianrou, his status in the pop music world is unshakable.

.

Gao Xiaosong once said that the real queen of the mainland music scene is Teresa Teng. No one can match her, and other singers cannot be counted.

So far, there are very few people who can be called the "godfather of music" in the mainland music scene, and Liu Huan is the well-deserved "godfather of music". Regardless of musical talent, character, or social status, it is not something that ordinary people can compare with.

In my impression

01. Phoenix in flight

02. Questions asked thousands of times

03. Can’t live without you

04. A young man’s ambition is not sorrowful

05. The crescent moon

06. The crescent moon

07. Heaven and earth In my heart

08. Have fun

09. Against all odds

10. Song of a hero

11. Warmth is forever< /p>
