Comment on Jay Chou's Castle William

Castle William is an English-style song. Jay Chou added classical Baroque string accompaniment and Band to his music creation, forming an English-style retro style. What's more, Jay Chou tried to express the Spanish-style string performance in his songs, but the artistic conception was unexpectedly close to the film soundtrack, which was as strange as a horror film, making people memorable.

The song MV tells the story of William Castle in Jay Chou's dream, with a fat witch, a princess with blue eyes and a white candle, and a black cat that laughs like a cry, with rich and strange colors. In the MV, Jay Chou set up three scenes in coordination with the genre, and also built a piano with mechanical feeling. The shiny organ and the wandering luminous current on the piano will make different colors according to the speed of playing the piano.

Creative background:

When Jay Chou made the demo of Castle William, he had already thought of using the monster "Vampire" in the western world as the theme of the song, and then Jay Chou told vincent fang the imaginary story, and then vincent fang searched for information and discussed it with Jay Chou, finally forming the lyrics of this song.

In composing music, Jay Chou thought of making an organ with MIDI when he was making a song demo, and adding sound effects such as the sound of horses' hooves in front of it. The last rap of the song comes from the lyrics of the song "Bullfighting", which was added on the spot when Jay Chou finally recorded it.
