Music Anyone??

Sad to mention...Chinese pop-song industry is going "down hill" nowadays. Notice the phenomena?? Its because people grow tired of the unchanging style of Chinese pop-song. You can see a similar feel and style in almost every Chinese pop-song. Try compare older classic Chinese pop-songs (eg 吻别 by Jacky Cheung) with pop-song nowadays. You can see a different in style and feel. But take the most recent pop-song by so-and-so new singer, all you can hear is something that feels like some other song by somebody (dont get confused). Especially slow sentimental songs, with a common-till-3-year-old-can-tell piano intro on super-damn-common chords and melody. I bet you guys who have favourite Chinese songs would find it hard to like new songs nowadays. Why?? Because they simply dont and wont give us a HIT and BANG!! on the head... Wont give us a feel to repeat that song over and over again. This, I keep on telling my friends whenever I have the chance.

I had never really fancy Chinese pop before (only a few exception). Because I had my head mostly in J-pop. J-pop's also not much songs that can give me a Bang!! But through anime, I get to know a lot of good songs (and almost every anime theme is my favourite. Non-anime theme are often awful and nasty. That may be the reason for not been chosen for anime theme). Comparitively, the style to Chinese pop is significantly different.

They rarely torture your ear with Western Heavy Metal shouting and repetition of negative elements (eg suicidal, sex, drug) but their rock and pop is acceptable. With a creatively composed intro (which I dont think I can come out with such lines.eg Porno Graffiti - Melisa ), the intro itself can capture your attention and make you wana continue (I dont think I can find such out-of-the-norm intro in Chinese pop). Normally their love songs wont be "soft and sentimental as if sung softly to a sleeping baby" but rock with nice beats, awesome guitar and great voice (eg Yui...love her voice!!!). Those are the elements that hook me on J-pop. Wonder what you guys think about that...

Anyway, Korean pop aka K-pop is rising quite good via Korean drama. Their language fits uniquely in their style of songs. It wont sound the same if a Korean song is sung in Chinese. I like K-pop too cause of their sentimental songs. K-pop song trend is either "sentimental and soft" like drama theme, or dance-beat based like Wonder Girls' "Nobody". It can really make you wana dance and like the song. However, their dance-beat songs are not much compared to drama theme. Drama theme to me...sounded bout-the-same but its definately feels different compared to Chinese pop in that matter. Well, after so much time and effort talking and crapping, its only based solely on my personal opinion with some analysis.

Well, the reason I post this is to tell you guys that I desperately wana revolutionize the Chinese pop music. Cant let it die like that. I wana be the guy who change it if nobody can. I hope to bring K-pop and J-pop trend and elements into Chinese pop. Do you think its possible to put those elements into Chinese pop music? Can I do it?? Somebody!! Change the damn Chinese pop music trend already!!! Someday I might fed up and give up totally on Chinese pop. Go and immerse myself in J-pop and K-pop.

Nitez!!
