A song "Rice Fragrance" heals everyone

【As expected of Nan Ye, he didn't disappoint. The very first song is an original new song.】

【"decent", """moonlight""", both are very good. I believe Xiao Ge's third song won't be bad either.】

【Honestly, I was just afraid he'd start strong and then decline. If he can continuously produce good works, he will definitely have a place in the future music scene.】

However, not everyone knew who Nan Ye was, especially some uncles and aunties watching the show; they didn't recognize him at all.

The main reason was that Nan Ye had only been popular for too short a time. Most people who knew him were music enthusiasts.

Nan Ye nodded towards the back, indicating that he could start.

On the large screen behind him, the song's information and lyrics were displayed.

He was afraid that if the lyrics weren't displayed, others wouldn't be able to hear what he was singing clearly.

The intro began, and the first sounds heard were the chirping of crickets and the laughter of children.

Next, a light and pleasant acoustic guitar brought in the rhythm, and the panpipes injected soul.

The 30-second intro instantly transported the audience to the season of chirping insects and singing birds.

The rice fields perfumed the entire summer.

It felt like returning to that carefree childhood, running barefoot through the fields with everyone, stepping on the soil...

【This intro is so unique, they actually arranged the sound of crickets into it.】

【Absolutely amazing, I've never heard an intro like this, it's so catchy.】

【I don't know why, but I suddenly thought of catching crickets in the fields when I was a child, it's so magical.】

The singing followed:

“If you have too many complaints about this world

If you fall, you don't dare to keep moving forward

Why do people have to be so fragile and degenerate”

The natural melody, unique diction, and vocal style seemed to possess magical power, slowly drawing the audience into this summer.

All worries seemed to be hidden away at this moment.

Music has power!

Situ Yanran had always known this.

She just hadn't expected Nan Ye's new song to have such strong resonance.

That's right, resonance!

A resonance far exceeding the previous two songs.

The most important thing was Nan Ye's unique singing style; she had never heard it before, it was incredibly fresh.

The diction wasn't very clear, but it had a unique grainy texture that made the rhythm of the whole song stronger, giving people the desire to keep listening.

That's right, it's Jay Chou's signature singing style, which Nan Ye, with his master-level singing skills, could perfectly control.

“Please turn on the TV and see

How many people are bravely striving for life

Shouldn't we be content

Cherish everything even if you don't possess it”

Hearing this, everyone could tell that this was actually an inspirational song.

It's just that many people couldn't understand the meaning of the line "Please turn on the TV and see".

Only Nan Ye himself knew that in the era when this song was created, turning on the TV mostly showed scenes of earthquake relief.

They were all living diligently, so what reason do we have not to live?

Unknowingly, the chorus had arrived:

“Still remember you said home is the only castle

Keep running along the rice fragrance river

...

The village ballad is forever the reliance

Go home, go back to the initial beauty”

There were no fancy words, it was simple, yet catchy, forming a unique chemical reaction at this moment that made people unknowingly fall deeply into it.

Anyone who heard this point would fall into the world depicted by the song:

Innocent children freely chased butterflies, dragonflies, caught fish, crabs, and crickets in the fields.

Even if the straw wet their trouser legs, they still laughed heartily.

Stealing fruit, being discovered by the owner, chased until they fell, patting their backside, and running away with a sly smile...

After growing up, they gradually forgot these things, feeling that childish play was no longer suitable for them, and they wanted to go out and see the outside world even more.

Who would have thought that the outside world would be even more difficult than imagined?

More and more frustrations, more and more complaints; even crying in the corner, no one knew.

Enduring all the hardships, tasting all the disappointment and loneliness, seeing enough cold eyes and ridicule, they finally truly woke up.

Home is the eternal reliance.

Home is the only castle.

When we return home, we are always treasures held in the palm of their hands.

If you're tired, go home, let down all your defenses, and have a good sleep in your own small bed...

These scenes were deeply etched into the mind and could not be erased.

【Wow, it's so healing, I also want to go back to that simple and beautiful era.】

【The lyrics are written so well, simple, but every line is etched into the heart.】

【I feel like I'm back in that summer of memories, barefoot, the gurgling stream, childhood days.】

The chorus ended quickly, but the song continued:

“Don't think about giving up so easily

Like I said

If you can't catch a dream, just change to another one”

...

In life, no matter what you experience, everyone will tell you.

Dreams, you can pursue them with your whole life.

No matter what you encounter, no matter how bitter, how tiring, how difficult, don't give up.

But this song tells you:

In life, follow your heart, do your best, and leave no regrets.

But if you've already given your all but cannot advance further, don't feel sorry for yourself, degenerate, or give up.

Just change to another dream!

It was this line that made everyone fall into it.

Even the Director, who wasn't a music professional, was deeply moved at this moment.

Don't look at how glamorous he is now; what he has paid is also several times that of ordinary people.

Before becoming famous, he had struggled in this industry for 15 years, without a car, a house, or savings. Sometimes, he only overcame difficulties with the help of friends.

But how many 15 years are there in a lifetime!

He hadn't noticed just now, but looking closely at this moment, the number of people in the live stream was soaring, increasing by three to four hundred thousand in half a song. Can you imagine?

And Nan Ye was still continuing:

“The paper airplane of childhood, has finally flown back into my hand now

The so-called happiness, chasing dragonflies barefoot in the fields

...

I leaned against the scarecrow, blowing in the wind, singing a song, and fell asleep

Oh, oh

The afternoon guitar is clearer amidst the insect chirping

With sunlight sprinkled on the road, you won't be afraid of heartbreak

Cherish everything even if you don't possess it

...

When this section came out, whether it was the celebrities in the audience, the Director and staff backstage, or the viewers in the live stream, none could remain silent.

【This lyric-writing ability is amazing, I was just picturing childhood scenes in my mind, they were a bit blurry, but these lyrics directly filled in that picture completely, incredible.】

【Paper airplanes, scarecrows, dragonflies... these are truly childhood memories.】

【Childhood was truly good, sleeping at eight or nine, sleeping until dawn, no nightmares, no melancholy, no one to miss, and no tears that just fell while lying down.】

【...】

Until the entire song ended, everyone was still immersed in it, unable to extricate themselves.

Some were emotional, some felt healed, and some even wanted to cry...
