“Some people met, it’s a lifetime…” This most affectionate monologue was written in the song in this midsummer.
After a year of absence, Hou Xian finally released his new Chinese wind work “Meeting a Lifetime”. This unique and charming single follows Hoho’s unique RnC string style, and uses exquisite and beautiful melody to vividly show a picture of a love story on the Beijing-Hangzhou Canal.
What is particularly striking is the introduction of a melodious pastoral flute with the weather forecast background music “Fishing Boat Sings Evening” in the arranger, which evokes familiar memories and resonance, followed by a piece of Cantonese chanting to sing with the fishing boat. The night is intertwined, as if a monologue in Cantonese opera shuttles through time and space. The south of the Yangtze River that I met, the lakeside of parting, the agreed Gongchen Bridge…Silk, bamboo, and erhu are endless. Familiar formulas, but different tastes, those who love the style of the country will definitely be hooked.
Regarding this idea, Hou Xian said that he had lived in Guangzhou for five years, so he wanted to try different elements. “This Cantonese chanting also condenses my memories in Yangcheng. The pronunciation of Cantonese retains the oldest Chinese pronunciation, so the flat rhyme of chanting poems is also very charming.”
According to Houxian, what runs through the lyrics is actually a letter from a boy to a girl to his lover. In a long time ago, the two met by the canal in the evening, privately set for a lifetime. Although they were separated, reunited and reunited, they also planted longing and expectation in the letter. “The Gongchen Bridge at the end of the Beijing-Hangzhou Canal is also the end of the lover’s long-distance love race, so the ending of the story will fall there. A very beautiful wish. I hope everyone will listen to this song and meet your life in the near future. .”
The story is long, the lover has a long love, meets a lifetime, on the Gongchen Bridge.Return to Sohu to see more
