Source title: Young singer Kou Dan’s new song “Sunshine is just right” debuts to pay tribute to the classic, warm you and me
“I have a beautiful wish, when I grow up, I can sow the sun. When I grow up, I can sow the sun, and it is enough to sow one by one… One hangs at night, hangs at night”
Has this familiar melody awakened your childhood memories? Do you know who the original singer of this song is? Although she is not young, she can say to everyone without exaggeration, “You grew up listening to my songs”. As Fan Sang, a music textbook for nine-year compulsory education in primary and secondary schools, she sang the well-known nursery rhymes such as “The Most Glorious Labor” and “Growing the Sun”.
She is the powerful singer Kou Dan.
Today, the multi-talented Kou Dan brings us her new song “Sunshine Just Right”.

Kou Dan adopts the narrative style that he narrates in his singing. Inspired by her childhood singing of the song “Growing the Sun”, a music textbook for nine-year compulsory education, combined with the melody and theme of nursery rhymes, she created a Mandarin single jointly created by the famous lyricist Li Liqun and composer Zheng Yiyang, using “Sunshine Just Right” as the song title. It symbolizes hope, beauty, auspiciousness and light. The content adopts the method of “compound theme” to expand the expressive power of the song, so that it has the meaning of longing, blessing and healing.
Interestingly, in addition to paying homage to the elements of the children’s song “Planting the Sun”, the accompaniment of the obvious “La La La, Planting the Sun” in the interlude also has a great background. Completed together, everyone can carefully identify their voices.
May this song sweep away the haze of the epidemic and warm your heart in the sunshine of June.
Kou Dan is now the soprano of the China Railway Art Troupe, a member of the Beijing Musicians Association, and a “filial piety and respecting relatives” ambassador of the All-China Women’s Federation.

The sun is fine,
So good that I can’t help but think of your warm smile.
your warm smile,
It’s a signpost that keeps me from getting lost.
The sun is fine,
Good enough to return to your warm embrace.

It’s a castle that shelters me from the wind and rain.
I never knew,
I am equally important to you.

Pride is restored immediately.

Only you, I most want to rely on.

Everything will get better.
