Vae's third ideological album "Socrates Has No Bottom" has received more than 50 million hits on the Internet since its release on April 1st. However, how many people can truly understand the connotation of the song?
The entire album "Socrates Has No Bottom" contains 10 songs, which consider different propositions and are integrated and coherent.
First of all, let’s start with the album name,
Socrates is a famous thinker in the West, just like Confucius in China. His influence on Western culture is like Confucius' influence on Chinese culture. I think this may be Xu Song's way of presenting his thoughts to the world more tactfully when many people don't understand him! Sugra wrote in Xu Song's blog that he has no eyes and looks exactly like Xu Song. What does this mean? Explain that Socra is the symbol of Xu Song. Why does he have no eyes? Because there are too many things in this world that are not worth seeing. Imagine why? Because compared to the ugly world, the things in imagination are much more beautiful. No reason why? Because Socra had no eyes, he was able to unleash infinite imagination and infinite wisdom without being bound by the world. As Einstein said "Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution.
" and another sentence "In addition to thoughts, other things Nothing can be trusted"
1. The most amazing song "Destroy the Man"
I'm sure not many Songshu can listen to Vae's new song "Destroy the Man" I understand, because everyone is still underage when it comes to carving out. So I will briefly analyze the entire lyrics, and you only need to have a brief understanding. The lyrics and music of this song are very strange and cryptic. If you just want to simply listen to the tune of the song, there is no need to read further.
1. Several maple leaves from Songdao, stacked together, have a charming blood-red feeling. (The first sentence points out the culprits, the famous Japanese VA actresses: Matsu, Shima, and Kaede. These discs are stacked together, which gives a feeling of blood-red temptation.)
2. The boy starts a new life here The experience ended up causing sin. (Because of watching the movie, the young man could not withstand the temptation and began to fall in love prematurely. He secretly ate the forbidden fruit and became pregnant.)
3. In January, when half of the life ends, pay the price and reach the state of repentance. (One says that January is a good time to have an abortion, and one regrets the high cost of surgery and medical expenses; the other says that there are exactly eight months from early summer to January of the following year, and the unborn life is lost due to premature birth or drainage...)
4. Transformation, scattering a pool of debris, it destroys people without getting tired. (Imagine the transformation from a girl to a woman. The puddle of debris will destroy people and innocent little lives.)
5. The raindrops in early summer fall too perfunctorily, and I am used to it casually. Convenience. (Perfunctory, irresponsible for love. All because of impulsiveness)
6. The night that is allowed to be indulged, the carefree that is allowed to be indulged, all blame it for instigating the zipper. (I admit, these two lyrics made me think crookedly. To be honest, one of the meanings is indeed the improper relationship between men and women, and then... just understand it in your heart. Don't just focus on the present, and don't consider the future. Can it be considered love? It should last forever. Remember, impulse is the devil, this is true! )
7. The raindrops in early summer fall too slowly, and I am used to leaving without saying goodbye. (Raindrops are too perfunctory, you understand? I’m used to leaving without saying goodbye, just to vent. Desire, not love, shameful!)
8. Excitement. . The love has receded, and she no longer sobs, understanding the superficiality of love. (It can be easily associated with certain pictures. Everyone knows here, no explanation is required.)
9. The mixed sound in the middle: for **, for **, for **, to protect eyesight.
Immediately afterwards, a string of children's laughter turned into cries, which was horrifying (to protect your eyesight, start by not looking at A; the string of suspected children's laughter was actually the dead child...)
10. Forgive the superficiality of this era. (Xu Song alluded to the sad view of love in this era.)
Second, the song "Tear Down the East Wall" has many layers of meaning
"Tear Down the East Wall" depicts a story in the Tang Dynasty The tragic fate of the "little people". The "little man" failed in the imperial examination, and the son inherited his father's legacy. He was plain in appearance, hardworking and tolerant. But "little people" also have ideals, "little people" also have love, and "little people" also have beliefs, but "little people" have a difficult fate and eventually leave sadly. There are endless formations of horseshoes, and dynasties are constantly changing. No matter when, such "little people" exist in every corner. They are so inconspicuous, and they go so hard on the road to realizing even a little bit of their small ideals, because they are small people. , the "destiny" of little people is so many misfortunes. But if the east wall is demolished, the west wall may not be repaired.
Literally, Xu Song narrates the tragic life of a tavern owner in the Tang Dynasty and alludes to various current social realities, which is quite postmodern. There is no anger or venting, but a touch of compassion, which gives many sharp topics new ways and outlets to discuss. It can be called a stunning work. In terms of the overall situation, Xu Song's writing style is unique. If this kind of "borrowing the past to describe the present" is not a pioneering work, then the last line of the whole song introduces this work into the category of philosophical thinking. As for the music part, the chanting and singing are as smooth as water; the R&B guitar is perfect; the melody of the chorus and the lyrics are very well connected. The lyrics, music, singing, and production were all written by one person, and were so naturally integrated into one. I'm afraid not many people can do it now.
This song will never be so obvious. I guess it's about forced demolition. The problem of forced demolitions is quite serious now. If they don't agree to the demolition, the water and electricity will be cut off. So now there is a new term - nail household. It probably started from ancient times.
The second point I want to say is that when girls look for boyfriends nowadays, they first look at the conditions. After getting married, they were just greedy for small money. But the man is really infatuated. I even buy the food myself. This is a silly but honest story, and later it also expresses a feeling of helplessness. It is true that many things are not up to people. It was demolished from the east wall to the end. And in the end, the Western Wall had to be demolished due to face reasons... I think the last sentence of our song is the best.
Three. "Weibo Control"
Using vivid language and a brisk tone, it sings about a phenomenon in current life. Being often immersed in one thing and forgetting other really important things and people is a kind of "control". "Control" may sometimes bring about some feelings of vanity, making people feel "fulfilled" for a while, but they actually get very little. So much was said but nothing was actually done. Everything must be done in moderation. As for what is popular at the moment, it is certainly not a bad thing for a young person to catch up with the trend of the times, but you cannot immerse yourself in it all day long. Weibo is full of boring people showing off, showing off, and being filled with a lot of boring and boring things every day. Some things don’t need to play such an important role in life. Put down your phone, put down your computer, and look at the people around you and the world around you. Only by being real can you be truly happy.
The wave of technology has also destined that more and more people will become the kind of Weibo addicts who "feel like something is missing if they don't use Weibo". Xu Song's observation of life is still keen, and his understanding of popular things is still unique. By describing a pair of lovers who both use Weibo, "Weibo Control" conveys the interesting context of emotions on the intertwined leaves of the Internet. The chorus also implicitly reflects on the current social situation of "doing more is less important than talking". Hiding the depth of creation behind simple lyrics is another trait that Xu Song has shown in his work "No Makeup". As for Han Faner's R&B style and flexible and playful interpretation, this song is a bonus.
Four. Doctor
The protagonist of "Doctor" may be the so-called "spare tire", the second choice when the other person cannot be with the one you love most.
But who wants to be the second male lead of the person they love the most?
Song’s faint voice expresses the sadness and helplessness. Sometimes no matter how hard she works, she can never occupy that position in her heart.
He did not inflict the injury on her, and even if he was a skilled doctor, he might not be able to cure the disease. The girl selfishly wanted to hide in a safe haven that didn't care about her past, but she couldn't give him sincerity. This is a cruel but common fact. Simple melody does not lighten the mood. It is sometimes difficult to think of solutions to emotional propositions. But, now that you have put a ring on her, just love her well. I believe she will love you even more deeply than she once did.
Come on, doctor. Warn girls to cherish their first time.
Fifth, "Cooling"
It seems to be a narrated diary. Busy life, calm with some irritability, cold weather, indifferent interpersonal relationships, boring gossip shows, love like fireworks, and no sense of security. Are many people in cities like this? The combination of Brother Song's somewhat lazy and helpless voice and the tunes of Peking Opera is very innovative. The true and false voices are perfectly blended, just like some people's feelings are hard to distinguish between true and false. Come here when you should come, leave when you should leave, cold and warm Self-aware.
Sixth, "Great Rivers and Mountains"
Let us reflect on our current living conditions. I usually either go to class or work or surf the Internet. On vacation, I just sleep, watch TV and play cards. I also spend very little time communicating with my parents and family. Life becomes boring. But there are far more joys in life, but modern people have gradually forgotten them. You have to be engaged when you are working and studying, but you should also be engaged when you are relaxing. The motherland is a vast country, and it would be a pity if we did not visit several places in the motherland in this life. Song Ge's good rap is a perfect combination of Chinese style, erhu, pipa and pop music. There are also the chirping of birds, which makes the listener immediately want to see a magnificent scene of great rivers and mountains. Easy and cheerful.
Seven, "Beside Two People"
It should describe the mood in the early stages of love. A light melody, a warm voice, and a little throbbing. He sat next to her, so nervous that he didn't know where to put his hands. He remembered the smell of her hair. He remembered where she wanted to go and wanted to wander with her. When you hear this song, will the boy or girl who once sat next to us come to mind? Or have an urge to fall in love. When two happy people are together, it doesn't matter what happened in the past. As long as I hold your hand, I can go anywhere.
Eight, "In Imagination"
The protagonist in the story recalls and precipitates his lost feelings. Two people who once loved each other may have wanted to give each other a lifetime.
Those who truly love each other will last a long, long time. But in the end, the fate of separation was not avoided. The once passionate feelings froze and disappeared, leaving only fragments of memories. All this is different from what was originally imagined. Time and space continue to intersect, but memories will still come to mind. However, we still have to let go of the past and life continues. Love is not about "chasing possession". Love can also be transformed into distant blessings. If you are happy, then I will be happy for you too. We are like clouds in the sky, even if they are blown away by the wind, we still have the same sky. The melody of this song chosen as the main song is catchy but full of skills. The lyrics are simple but sincere, making the audience excited.
Nine, Thousands of Baidu
One of the most beautiful things in life must include searching. Looking for love, looking for happiness, looking for joy, looking for freedom, looking for ideals, looking for... The road of searching is full of thorns, maybe you can't find anything even if you step on broken iron shoes, maybe you are alone and can only be accompanied by loneliness. Searching for "you" thousands of times, year after year. Maybe I haven’t seen “you” in the dimly lit place. But looking back on the past, the important thing may not be the "you" in the dim light, but the process of finding "you".
I hope you all like these 10 carefully composed songs, and I also hope that everyone will be happy to think about your own life. Chase your ideals.
Ten. "You will be fined if you don't eat the toast"?
Many people will always throw this sentence away harshly to those who do not comply with their wishes. But There are so many people who "don't drink wine as a penalty" because not all "wine" is so sincere, and not all "wine" is worth drinking in one gulp. There are too many boring meals in this impetuous society. In the wine bar, everyone has a different choice whether to have a toast or a penalty. But instead of enduring the reluctance in your heart and choosing to obey the flattery and even join in the trend, it is better to be yourself and have a unique perspective. It sings about people's pursuit of purity and nobleness. Can a bit of contempt and disdain hurt some people?
Editor's note:
p>Everyone has different opinions on "Socrates Has No Bottom", but the key is how you look at it. Vae has said that this is an album about thinking, and it has a certain meaning. Depth and connotation. So I think this is like a detective game. We need to think and find the truth. We need to see through the phenomenon to find out the essence of this album and discover what Vae’s true intention is. The song tastes a bit like Lu Xun. If you understand the deeper meaning of the song, it will become more and more charming, and the more you listen, the more it will make you think.
People who are superficial and not good at thinking will only stick to the superficial meaning of the songs. They don't want to understand those images, so they can't resonate with the album, so they deny it. This is a quality issue. , but it also reflects the superficiality of the times and the shortcomings of education.
As for Vae, I believe in his writing style. This era needs people like him. I believe that his future albums will do better.
What you see may not be true. Don’t be blinded by the secular world, confuse right and wrong, and confuse right and wrong. You should close your eyes in a timely manner, calm down, and feel with your heart. Think about what is wrong with all of this. Light a light in your heart and let it point you in the right direction.
