Brother, you play rock and roll, what's the use of it? "Liang Long's voice roared so loudly: high-pitched and sad! Ge Fei once missed a friend like this: "Li Lin, my down-and-out friend, are you still writing poems in that airtight house? ? You wrote love, love, love on one piece of white paper after another, until your hair turned white. "Yes, my friend, what's the use of writing poetry? You know it's impossible, but you do it and go against the current! The "out of time" second-hand rose, under the tacky appearance of being more than a bustard, is vulgar and elegant. , its irony and uncompromising, anger and arrogance hidden under humility, as well as its care for the people at the bottom, and its ruthless critical spirit of the real society, quickly conquered those who doubt whether there is a true "rock" in mainland China. People at the core. Cui Jian feels that Second Hand Rose is not very good except for the concept. As the godfather of mainland rock, he may be ashamed to admit: He has never dreamed of the level reached by Second Hand Rose's lyrics. Carefully, they became a family and gave birth to a baby and struggled together. "Picking Flowers" is full of humanistic care and the flavor of life. It is ridiculing, realistic and consoling: "I say, girl, don't be afraid, who is always like a flower?" I would like to sing a song for you. Where can I find a perfect match? " "I am a box of brand-name cigarettes, I was stuffed into the poor man's pocket; I am a greedy mouse, I was adopted by the rich. "Allowing Some Artists to Get Rich First" is extremely sharp and violently criticizes the shocking social phenomenon of hypocrisy: "I was forced to become a worker, I was forced to be a businessman, I was forced to be a businessman. I became a poet, and I was forced to become a useless person! Allow our farmers to get rich first, allow our beauties to get rich first, allow our servants to get rich first, allow our artists to get rich first! A group of pigs flew into the sky, a group of pirates drowned on the beach; my son was made into money, and the swaying flowers withered on the river bank! "The famous song "Because" begins with a smug, self-satisfied, and rather show-off: "Because I am smart, I am idle, because I am beautiful, I am natural, because of love, I am notorious-" It suddenly turns to full of pride: "Because of that kindness, I escaped from danger! "It's amazing, and thunder is heard in the silence: for anyone in any era, kindness should be the last bottom line. It also has the philosophical meaning of a blessing in disguise, which reminds people of "Forrest Gump". All fools know that because of that kindness It's not that there aren't too many people that fall into the tiger's mouth, but there are too many:) Diplodocus deliberately wanted to create an unexpected effect in this way. It's called great wisdom but foolishness.
At the end, the second voice told the truth: "Because of food and clothing, the enemy came forward." "Our ideals are going to the kindergarten, our lives, and they are still going to the Dream of Red Mansions. Our love is still heading to the Water Margin, our youth is still heading to the Three Kingdoms, and our ideals are still heading to Journey to the West. 》Written, witty, and rich in imagery, at the end, the long-suppressed anger finally bursts out: "Our youth must continue to go to wither, and our ideals must continue to go to rubbish." The lyrics of "Secondhand Rose" are just plain words, but "there is a true meaning in it, and I have forgotten to explain it"; it combines folk music, duets, Beijing opera monologues and other artistic forms to form its own The unique black humor rock style represents the highest level of mainland pop music in terms of artistic quality and is a Chinese band with the most rock spirit.
