I'm afraid there is no one who doesn't know this song of the Beatles, especially in the 212 London Olympic Games, when thousands of people sang "Hey, Jude" together, which also revealed the love of the British nation for the Beatles, a national treasure band.

Hey Jude is a song written by Paul McCartney (Beatle, bassist and lead singer) for a five-year-old child. This boy is Julian, the son of John Lennon (Beatle, rhythm guitarist and lead singer) and his ex-wife, Cynthia.

in p>1986, John Lennon began to live with Yoko Ono, and his marriage with his ex-wife Cynthia was on the verge of collapse. As a teammate and friend, Paul has always loved Lennon's son Julian, and he is worried that the marriage of adults will bring psychological shadow to children. He once said, "I always feel sorry for children whose parents are divorced." Adults may be fine, but children ... "At the same time, he also wants to comfort Cynthia. So one day, he went to Cynthia's house and brought her a red rose. He joked with her and said, "Cyn, what do you say we get married?" When they both laughed at the same time, Cynthia felt warmth and concern from his joke.

Paul wrote this song Hey Jude (Hey, Julian) for Julian in the car, but Julian didn't know it at that time. It was not until twenty years later that Julian realized that this song was written for himself. He has always loved this friend of his father, Paul like an uncle.

John Lennon also likes this song very much. When he first heard it, he thought, Oh, this song is for me! Paul said, "Hey, John! Go on, leave us and stay with Yoko. "He seems to be saying" Hey, John! Don't leave! "

The original name of this song is Hey Julian, later it was changed to Hey Jules, and finally it became Hey Jude. The name Jude is louder than the first two, and it has been sung ever since.

Song 2: "days of our lives"

Needless to say, hehe ... The landlord loves it. BEYOND's songs are definitely classics! When I think of that familiar melody, there are lyrics: Today, only the remains of the body greet days of our lives, and hold fast to freedom in the storm ... What a pity, Jia Kui died so early.

The song "days of our lives" was written after returning from a visit to Mandela in Africa.

Pay attention. I didn't understand Cantonese before, and many people were embarrassed. Once a friend said that the love song "days of our lives" was really beautiful, and I was struck by lightning. Don't mix "days of our lives" with those whiny pop love songs.

Nelson nelson rolihlahla mandela, a black leader in South Africa, was born in a big chieftain's family in transkei, South Africa on July 18th, 1918. He was qualified as a lawyer with a Bachelor of Arts degree from South Africa University and a lawyer from the University of Witwatersrand. Mandela has a strong personality and respects national heroes. As the eldest son of the family, he was designated as the heir to the chieftain. However, he said: "I will never rule an oppressed tribe as a chief" but "devote myself to the cause of national liberation in the name of a soldier".

In p>1944, Mandela attended the South African National Congress (ANC). In 1948, he was elected as the national secretary of the ANC Youth League, and in 195, he served as the national chairman of the ANC Youth League. In 1952, he successively served as the Executive Committee of the ANC, Chairman transvaal province and Vice Chairman of the National Committee. At the end of the same year, he successfully organized and led the "Defying Unfair Laws Movement", which won the respect of all blacks. To this end, the South African authorities have twice banned him from participating in public meetings.

in June p>1961, mandela founded the ANC military organization "spear of the nation" as commander-in-chief. In August 1962, Mandela was arrested and imprisoned when he was only 43 years old. The South African government sentenced him to five years in prison for political incitement and illegal border crossing.

In June p>1964, he was accused of conspiracy to subvert and was sentenced to life imprisonment. Since then, he has been in prison for 27 years. He has been persecuted and tortured, but he has always been unyielding.

On February 11th, 199, under the pressure of public opinion at home and abroad, the South African authorities were forced to announce the unconditional release of Mandela. In March of the same year, he was appointed by the National Executive Committee of the ANC as the vice chairman and acted as the chairman. In July 1991, he was elected as the chairman. In April 1994, the ANC won the first non-racial general election in South Africa. In May of the same year, Mandela became the first black president of South Africa. In December 1997, Mandela resigned as the chairman of the ANC and said that he would no longer run for president in June 1999.

BEYOND is a band that pays attention to society. Since the 195s, political movements against racial discrimination and for democracy and peace have flourished in the world. These progressive movements will inevitably encounter some minor failures. Nelson Mandela, the black leader of South Africa, was imprisoned for only 15 years and was released from prison in 1988 after a hard struggle.

After visiting Mandela, Beyond band wrote this song "days of our lives" in 1988, which praised Mandela's great and brilliant life and expressed their own hatred of racial discrimination.

In the lyrics, there are: the meaning of black skin is to give him a lifetime of dedication, and in the struggle of skin color, years and months have turned possession into loss, and tired eyes have hope ...

Song. Red all over the country. Melody and lyrics seem simple, but it is such simple and unpretentious music that can move people more.

There seem to be quite a few versions about the background of this song. Wei, the protagonist of the song, is a real person. One of the stories is briefly described as follows:

A mainland boss is talking about business in Southeast Asia, and once he went to a restaurant for dinner, he called the waiter to prepare his order (I don't know the details, but it was roughly yes, hehe ...), and the waiter handed the menu to the boss, who didn't notice it, because his eyes were completely focused on the lovely waitress girl in front of him. At that moment, the boss seemed to think that the girl in front of him was destined to occupy all the space in his heart, because he. After the meal, the boss specially found the manager and asked about the girl's information, knowing that everyone called the girl Wei. Unfortunately, the boss couldn't stay too long because he was on official business, so he wrote down the address of the hotel and the name Wei.

I don't know how long it took. When the boss had time to deal with personal affairs, he decided to go to the girl who made him fall in love at first sight, but at this time, Wei was no longer in that restaurant. Love to the depths of acacia bitter, when the girl named Wei completely disappeared from his world, he didn't know what pain was.

Later, the boss remembered everything when he saw Wei and wrote this song "Wei".

The second version of the story seems to be more reliable, and the singer Huang Pinyuan also mentioned it in a talk show, which goes something like this:

A Malaysian garage owner fell in love with a girl named, but he never confessed to her. For some reason, he didn't have the courage to make this love public. After a long time, Wei disappeared from his world, forever. Only then did he feel remorse, but everything was irreparable. The owner of the garage finally decided to look for the girl, but he had to give up his job in the garage. He made up his mind and sold everything in the garage, and took a large part of the money from the sale to buy a full set of professional audio and recording equipment. The boss wrote the song "Wei" for his lover, and arranged and recorded it himself, made it into a CD, and dragged the stereo all over the street with a car, hoping that one day Wei could hear it and come back to him. But until the end, the girl never showed up. Later, the song reached the ears of a music producer, who asked his team to rearrange it and let the singer Huang Pinyuan sing it.

Song 4: The Sailor

A disabled and determined creative singer, written by Zheng Zhihua.

I'm afraid this song has really influenced several generations. I remember listening to it in primary school.

Zheng Zhihua, one of the most influential Chinese cultural singers in the 199s, was more synonymous with being different, rebellious and aloof among many people born in the 197s and 198s. When talking about the creation of the song Sailor, Zheng Zhihua himself said:

"I think the song Sailor should have influenced many people in 1992 and 1993. Many people think that I have a great idea or how to write it, no. I wrote Sailor in the bathtub. (It's a little funny, hehe .....) Everyone thinks it's fun, because I like bathing very much, so I have a lot of fantasies when I soak in it. I've been on a boat, I've seen it, and everyone should have seen it. The waves are very windy. I have seen an even more horrible sight, that is, on the high seas, the sea without waves is terrible, like a mirror, so quiet and terrible. Anyway, at that time, I thought it contained a greater power, because I saw many sailors on the ship at that time, and their whole vitality moved me. So I thought in the bathtub at that time, strung this paragraph together and wrote the song "Sailor". "

even I didn't expect that the sailor, a song that has influenced generations, was actually written by Zheng Zhihua while taking a bath. It's really funny to think of it, but this song is definitely a classic.

Song 5 "Xiao Fang"

This song will remind people of a very sad love story, won't it? Author Li Chunbo really touched the weakest chord in that generation ...

The song "Xiao Fang" was written in the mid-196s, a love story between an educated youth who went to the countryside to jump the queue in Inner Mongolia and a local girl. Is that girl's name Xiao Fang? It is unlikely. The author Li Chunbo seems to have mentioned in an interview that Xiao Fang is just a molded image, a unique figure in that era. She is kind and beautiful, representing a group of rural girls in that era.

In those days, the educated youth who went to the countryside were in their prime of life, and many of them were old enough to get married and start a family. So I slowly developed feelings with local girls in my life. They may have felt the sweetness of love, but the reality is always unsatisfactory. The educated youth going to the countryside is only temporary, and one day they will return to their own cities. After all, where is their future, and who wants to stay in poor and backward villages all their lives?

So when we leave, we can only end up with a series of love ... When we listen to this song, we can already feel the pain of parting. "On the night we left the village, you and I came to the river, and the tears that never flowed with the river ..."

When talking about the creative thinking of Xiao Fang, Li Chunbo said, "That generation has no right or potential. In the special living environment of going to the countryside, they have created their independent survival consciousness. Educated youth has become the mainstay of today's society, and social culture and ideological trend have influenced that generation. In the early 199s, my educated youth works were a review of culture. After 1 years of directing experience, I reflected and summarized, and I wanted to show the unique temperament of educated youth. Big environment, big background, little people, short stories. "

We can also perceive some sadness from the songs. Who can understand the sadness endured by the heroine of the story?

Everyone may have their own answers in their hearts ...

Song 8: "What Are Words" (what is a promise)

A very nice English song "What Are Words" (what is a promise).

This song is a single album by Chris Medina in the tenth season of America's extinct good man. Although it stopped at the top 24, it has been widely circulated on the Internet. What is moving is not only the song itself, but also the love story behind the lyrics.

Chris Medina used to be a waitress at Starbucks. He proposed to the girl who had been in love with her for 8 years and finally got together. But then the beautiful girl suffered a severe brain injury because of a car accident. After recovery, her intelligence was only 2 years old, and she couldn't take care of herself at all, but Chris still stuck with her. Later, Chris joined American Idol in order to earn more money for his wife to get better treatment and live a better life. Although he finally stopped at the top 24 in China, the song What are words has been firmly imprinted in people's hearts.

song 9: "seasons in the sun"

the story took place in the United States in the 195s. The protagonist's name is unknown, so replace it with a, b and C.

this is a small town, simple and simple. A and C, two good friends who grew up together. But they are two very different people. A is the captain of the school football team, handsome and natural and unrestrained, and he is a very popular boy at school. C, shy and skillful, is always a loner, but he and A are friends. A and C were close friends until B appeared in their lives.

B, the cheerleader, seems to be designed for A. In the United States in the 195s, cheerleaders and football team captains were like school flowers and school grass, and they naturally fell in love. And C, as everyone thinks, always has a crush on B. However, B won't notice him. She is brilliant and dazzling, and she is a meteor in the vast sky. She is destined to need the depth of the night sky to accompany her in order to bloom the most dazzling light, not a twinkling star.

The story goes on. In 1956, A, C and B graduated. At that time, graduating from high school meant entering the society. And a and b, tied the knot in the blessing of everyone.

B runs a grocery store, and the only place to sell things in town is her dowry. A is a strong man. He became a truck driver, walking on all continents in the United States, running for his family.

C still has a secret crush on b, painstakingly, for no destination, and consistently. He became a carpenter, of course, because he was handy. When A is often away from home, C assumes the responsibility of a man. Do goods, repair ... One to two, feelings spread silently between the two. This is doomed to be a tragedy. Anyone who sees this can guess that this tragedy stems from excessive trust in his wife and friends.

The relationship between B and C has developed rapidly, and C has become a frequent visitor to B's home, especially when A left. In the winter of 1959, the United States was blocked by a rare snowstorm at high speed, and A decided to return soon after leaving the car.

at that time, communication was really underdeveloped, and no one knew that A was coming back, especially B and C.

A was shocked. When A pushed open the door, he saw it.
