As mentioned above, for the earliest completed song "Nocturne", Jay Chou poured into the overall concept and idea of ​​the next album. What kind of romantic classical factor does Jay Chou, who turned into a music poet, implement this song? Starting from the arrangement and music, there were a few seconds of noises at the beginning. When I heard this for the first time, I thought it was a radio problem. Later, I realized that it was the song itself. Later, I saw the MV of Nocturne on the Internet and fully understood that this noise was just the sound of snowflakes playing on the TV at the beginning of the MV. This noise gradually became the symbol of "Nocturne". Every time I heard this noise on various occasions, I knew it was "Nocturne", and gradually there was no sense of abruptness at the beginning.

The melody of the classical guitar chorus appears is very touching, mixed with a very slight piano sound, and then the very low drum beats are added, and the rap humming begins. This rap is the most difficult thing Jay Chou sings. The first is the lyrics twists, and the second is the rhythm is difficult to grasp. When humming a section, the arrangement is always several chord cycles of the classical guitar, and the focus is still the low drum beats.

Listen to these most pleasant sentences:

"Ah~The dark clouds began to cover up~

The night is not clean ~

In the park ~ the funeral echoes ~

Flying all over the sky ~

I'll give you ~ white rose ~

Withering in a pure black environment ~

The crow is strangely quiet on the branches~

Listen quietly~My black coat~

Want to warm you~the increasingly cold memories~

What I have walked through~ What I have walked through~

Misty is everywhere~

Oh, I'm in an empty cemetery~

I love you when I get old~”

The first few are covered, clean, echo, flying, rose, withering, quiet, coat, memory, life, fog, cemetery, love you. Completely rhyme, combined with the low drum beats, and it is completed in one go. The rhythm is thrilling. The three quiet words "Listen quietly" in the middle are intriguing. After singing "Love You", the strings are raised, and the climax of the whole song may also be the earliest completed part of the song:

"Play Chopard's nocturne for you~

Memorize my dead love ~

The same sound as the night wind~

Heartbroken sounds nice ~

It's very light to type on the keyboard~

I'm very careful about the longing I give~

The place where you are buried is called Netherworld~

Play Chopard's nocturne for you~

Memorize my dead love ~

And I'll hide your identity~

Play the piano under the moonlight ~

The response to your heartbeat ~

Still so warm and close ~

Miss your bright red lips~”

The drum beats in this section are still the key point. The string part is still the guitar. When you hear it, the interlude comes in, and it is the guitar's solo sound. The name of "Nocturne" is taken from the main song of the piano music. Why is the piano covered up? Why is the classical guitar the main instrument? This should be related to the arranger.

The arranger of this song, Lin Maike, has always been good at exploring the sense of rhythm, such as imitation of red, hair like snow in the same picture, and back in the past, Lin Maike has always been a master who likes to create a sense of rhythm with guitars and heavy drums, using rhythm to set off the melody. The sarcasm of classical guitar unexpectedly conforms to the dark temperament of the song, and the low drum beats also play a good support for the rhythm of the song, making the whole song of "Nocturne" not just the solo melody, so that the climax part is more comfortable and attractive, not only due to the melody, but also due to the arrangement. However, the piano is often suitable for love songs with melody priority, such as excuses, love cliffs, quiet, etc.

Another special thing about this song is that after the second paragraph b is finished, the first paragraph a is repeated again. The final repetition creates a feeling that will not be completed, making the audience feel that it is still unfinished.

Also, let’s talk about the lyrics and videos of this song. The story of this song, the MV creativity is all written by Jay Chou, so the lyrics and pictures can be basically said together. In order to conform to the temperament of the whole song, Fang Wenshan used relatively dark words and sentences to create an atmosphere of death well, such as bloodthirst, carrion, vulture, dark clouds, funeral, white rose, crow, cold, life, cemetery, fog, death, underworld, etc.

The lyrics in the lyrics "Play Chopard's nocturne for you to commemorate my dead love" has become a classic. MV Jay Chou went to New York to film. The snow and the cemetery added a sense of desolation to the artistic conception of the song.

So to sum up, "Nocturne" is a small song with a strong classical temperament, retro and gorgeous style, combining classical guitar and rap, and beautiful melody!

If someone disagrees with this song, it is because you mispositioned this song. If it is just a small ** song, then this song is worthy of the name of the God Song.

Like "Qi Lixiang", this song has been broadcast since it came out. In just one year, this song is already a little boring, this is the power of time. However, years have passed, and occasionally listening to "Nocturne" from the headphones under the night sky, the original touch was slowly recovered. I recalled the late autumn and early winter season, and recalled the scene of walking on campus after listening to "Nocturne" after every evening study. This is still the power of time. This song is born to suit the night. Put on the headphones, slowly in the night, listening to the nocturne, drinking tea, Du Xinghe is extremely comfortable.

After this song "Nocturne", the top ten songs will come.

The top ten songs are almost all undisputed super classics.

Du Xinghe first released Fang Yajun the 10th place in his heart "The Sorrow of War"!

...

Light ~ as light as paper ~ light ~ scattered in places ~

Light~ He was in a hurry as the applause gradually subsided~

He is singing ~ unbearable wounds ~

The script is on stage~The last performance~

...

And the whole village is in the seats.

Watch quietly how time abandons this theater~

The war stained his tears~Who was clamoring to eat candy in the wind~

At the beginning of this story, the dust had already blocked the sunshine.

...

Fear is engraved on the children's faces ~

The wheat field has fallen to the direction where the chariot passes~

The shape of the dandelion is floating ~ it flies in despair ~

She just sang this song to stop the tragedy of war~

...

Candlelight is lit at night~The sky breaks the turmoil~

The song of sorrow spreads thousands of miles~ The famine in my hometown~

Innocence is on this road ~ stumbling ~

He was cut by Miscara ~

...

What is the shape of hope in the eyes of children?

Do you wake up and have bread and breakfast? Have another bowl of soup?

The farmers burned the land and the village and finally picked up their guns.

But he gradually got used to giving up resistance.

...

What is the shape of hope in the eyes of children?

Is there a swing in the yard to swing? There is candy in my pocket~

The light of the bayonet is polished by hatred and barbaric in the distance~

But he smiled and didn't know how to panic~

...

Fear is engraved on the children's faces ~

The wheat field has fallen to the direction where the chariot passes~

The shape of the dandelion is floating and it flies in despair ~

She just sang this song to stop the tragedy of war~

...

Candlelight is lit at night~The sky breaks the turmoil~

Famine in my hometown~The song of sorrow spreads thousands of miles~

Innocence is on this road ~ stumbling ~

He was cut by Miscara ~

...

What is the shape of hope in the eyes of children?

Do you wake up and have bread and breakfast? Have another bowl of soup?

The farmers burned the land and the village and finally picked up their guns.

But he gradually got used to giving up resistance.
