Sometimes it is because we are happy to drink together, and sometimes it is because we drink to relieve our sorrows.
Although Chen Ming is too drunk, he always feels that life is incomplete without a toast.
The toast itself is not the point.
The intention behind it is why people come together.
As for the song "Cheers", Ashin himself wrote and composed the lyrics in 2011.
To be honest, if you don't read the lyrics and just read the song title, you will think that this is an emotional song.
You would never guess that this song is about cheers.
The object of the toast is to the old friends in my life, and to myself at the last moment of my death.
Because of this, Chen Ming still remembers that this song was included in the "Second Life" album by Ashin.
Songs can only remember.
Remember the regrets you had and the wonderful life you had.
But for songs, the world inside the songs is the second life of many people.
Chen Ming has always believed that singing is not a process of showing off singing skills, but a process of emotional resonance and empathy.
Because singing skills can be trained.
But feelings cannot be cultivated.
Only those who have experienced certain things and are of a certain age can be touched by certain emotions in certain songs.
The same goes for "Cheers".
It can touch everyone's heart.
Especially the older listeners, they must have the deepest feelings when they hear this song.
Of course, you can also understand that this song is about friendship.
Because there are pictures of different friends in the MV, and not only that, there are a lot of pictures of friends.
Classmates in school are friends;
Colleagues you meet at work are friends;
Artists from the same company are friends.
For Chen Ming, it can also be said to be a song for friendship.
But putting this aside, there are many other characters and characters appearing in the MV, including family members and lovers.
There are too many characters appearing in the mv.
Originally, the mv shouldn't feature so many characters.
Because music videos usually last only three or four minutes, the time is too short and there are too many characters appearing, so the audience will find it very confusing and complicated.
After all, the MV is not a movie or a TV series.
It does not give the screenwriter time to explain the background or introduce the characters in a large space.
most of the time,
When the audience watches the MV for the first time, they need to guess and think for themselves.
What is the mv about?
Who is the character who appears?
What do they do?
These issues need to be discovered by the audience themselves, rather than being explained by the MV screenwriter or PD.
In this situation,
The MV must pursue the simplest plot and the fewest characters to tell a more vivid and interesting story.
It can be said,
The MV for the song "Cheers" is actually very risky.
Because it's too complicated.
It wants to tell the story of a person's life in just three minutes.
This in itself is a bold attempt.
Especially in 2011, when China Entertainment was flourishing, the songs of other artists were not much worse than Mayday.
Fans in the entertainment industry may like Mayday one day, but like other artists tomorrow.
so,
There are good and bad things to try.
If you try wrongly, you will lose a lot of fans.
But fortunately, the MV of this song was able to be understood by many people.
Every character who leaves the country will give people a clear identity, a real and clear feeling.
Life is both long and short.
There are many people I meet, but there are also many people I forget.
This song tells everyone to cherish the present moment and cherish everyone you meet now.
because,
The friends we meet now may become less and less friendly in the end.
Keep fading until this person disappears from your world and disappears from your memory.
With the excellent MV and the excellent strength of the song itself, this song won the annual MV Award and the Best Music Video Award in 2013, the third year after its release.
It worked.
And his success also means that Mayday has succeeded.
Chen Ming still can't forget the feeling of listening to "Cheers" for the first time.
The simple guitar sound in the intro was paired with Ashin's unique pronunciation. Chen Ming played this song on a loop for a day.
To be honest, Chen Ming's favorite group is Mayday.
He dreams of going to a Mayday concert.
This urgent mood is like Chen Ming in this world who wants to attend Xiao Xuan's concert. The feelings are the same.
Over the past many years, Chen Ming has forgotten many things about the earth.
But every song of Mayday is remembered very clearly in Chen Ming's mind.
He also likes other artists.
But in contrast, Mayday is his belief.
When he came to this world, Chen Ming chose to use Mayday's "Contentment" to make a good start for himself. When he was about to retire, Chen Ming hoped that Mayday would still say goodbye.
Chen Ming paid great attention to this song and this MV.
The degree of care is comparable to the original filming of "The Great Summer"!
Only he knows what doing this means to him.
August 8th.
Chen Ming is looking forward to that day.
His current life is just like the title of the album included in "Cheers", it is his second life.
The heat of midsummer is getting stronger and stronger.
The greening in Yuncheng is very good.
summer season,
There are tall trees on both sides of every street in Yuncheng, providing shade for pedestrians.
even so,
It's still too hot in summer.
There are not many pedestrians walking on the streets. People prefer to stay at home, blowing fans and turning on air conditioners.
On a hot and unsettling day, countless netizens waited for the release of Chen Ming's new song.
August 8th is here.
Xingyu Entertainment actually didn't do much to promote the new song, but the craze caused by Chen Ming's new song is really too strong.
without any exaggeration,
Chen Ming now has fans across five continents.
No matter which continent, or even which city, as long as Chen Ming's name is mentioned, one out of every three people will be a fan of Chen Ming.
Some people got into it because they like to hear Chen Ming sing, and some people got into it because they watched Chen Ming's movies.
But no matter what,
At this moment, fans have only one focus, and that is Chen Ming's new song.
Today, the number of fans on Chen Minghua’s blog has reached 2 billion.
Strictly speaking, Chen Ming's actual number of fans is higher than this number.
Because there must be people who don’t play Huabo.
Or,
Many people look down on Huabo as a social platform.
This is similar to the idea that many people on earth despise neck scarves.
This time the new song will be released not at 3pm, but at 7pm.
this time,
It happens to be the personal time of most people.
The office workers have just gotten off work, and the school-going children have just gotten home from school.
Since it is "Cheers", it is natural to choose a time that is convenient for everyone, so that they can raise their glasses and have a drink together.
