TV Boosts "Cell Phone Short Song Fever"
Short songs are the basic form of Japanese classical poetry. In the 8th century, the imperial court was full of talented people and expensive.
A poem in the form of five, seven, five, seven and seven (pronounced according to Japanese) became popular among all ethnic groups and monks. Because the whole article is only 3 1 syllable, we must make great efforts to refine the words, so simplicity, implication and elegance become the main characteristics of short songs.
Written in the early 9th century, The Collection of Ancient and Modern Harmony Songs can be regarded as a master of Japanese classical short songs. Among them, more than 65,438+0,000 works are exquisite and beautiful in style, and the language is fluent and meaningful, which reflects the life interest of the nobility. Representative works such as Ji Youze's Love Song (cherry blossoms are in full bloom in spring/you can't get tired of seeing them/you are graceful) and Ji Guanzhi's Haruka (cherry blossoms are floating in the wind/fashionable and arrogant/living in the air without water/flying with waves) are still widely sung after thousands of years.
Different from the "speaking like a book" of classical short songs, Japanese young people's mobile phone short songs now use daily colloquial language, and most of them describe life-oriented themes such as family, love, work and school, and their style has changed from implicit to frank. Most short songs reveal the unique confusion and loneliness of adolescence. "Today and tomorrow/what I want to do most/is to go to work/have a wallet/have a place to sleep." "Stay at home alone/watch TV/so do you/I wish I were a boy/no one cares how far I fly." These seemingly vernacular short songs have a sense of rhythm in Japanese.
Japanese young people think that short songs and mobile phones are simply a "perfect match", and the small mobile phone screen can just accommodate a short song. More importantly, short cell phone songs can be "sung with you", and your current mood can fly to your friends' eyes instantly with a little finger. Compared with intermittent text messages, short songs are more likely to cause ringing of both parties.
Every Saturday night, NHK, Japan's most famous radio and television media, has a special program of "short songs for mobile phones". Each program has more than 4,000 short mobile phone songs submitted by viewers, which shows its popularity. Among the contributors, 85% are under the age of 30, and the "short song night on weekends" has become a "feast" for young people to vent their emotions.
Why can ancient short songs quickly enter modern people's lives through mobile phones? Taimeizhu, director of the NHK mobile phone short song program group, believes that this era is too free, but people want to find a restrictive expression such as short songs, which may also be a manifestation of young people's anti-trend. On the other hand, the strong appeal of the media has undoubtedly contributed to the current "mobile phone short song fever".
The film sings Youth in the key of 17.
Haiku originated from the first three lines of short songs, that is, five, seven and five syllables *** 17 are arranged into three short lines. It uses fresh and simple words to express rich emotions and arouse more associations. The most famous haiku poet is Matsuo Bashō, who is known as "Nuo Saint". His famous works include Ancient Pond (from a lonely ancient pond/frog jumping into the middle of the water/plop) and won the appreciation of Ryunosuke Akutagawa.
"The spring rain is raining on the grass path, and the eaves and walls are flourishing." These are the beauty of elegant art obtained through unique expressive force. After bananas, the most famous haiku poets had tea with Xie Wucun and Kobayashi. A tea has a famous haiku about hometown: "hometown, next to it, are all thorny flowers." Interestingly, there are many Japanese haiku poets who can write China's Chinese poems. Many of them often haiku China's poems. For example, Bajiao's phrase "Long summer leaves vegetation deep, warriors leave dreams" is based on Du Fu's poem "Although the country breaks mountains and rivers, the vegetation is green in spring".
Like short songs, haiku, once regarded as an "antique", is now favored by the younger generation in Japan with the help of mobile phones. In the words of the haiku poet Otsuko, in the era of information explosion, mobile phone haiku undoubtedly passes through the chaotic mind like a clear stream. Not long ago, the movie "Love in May, July and May" based on "Haiku Koshien" (National Haiku Competition for Colleges and Universities) was released in Japan, which aroused young people's yearning for "17 sound world". Tsukiki Hesheng of Kansai Branch of Japanese Nuo Opera Association commented that the key to winning lies not in the level of talent, but in singing "youth with 17 tone" with true feelings.
At present, the "Youth Haiku Award" has also appeared in the form of mobile phone or email, and more than 60,000 Haiku works have been collected. One of the award-winning works, the hymn of the season, wrote: "Whoever makes a phone call, looks at the mobile phone flickering, like moonlight." This kind of scene is expressed in the form of mobile phone haiku, which is really appropriate.
Mobile phone poems are mixed.
Many people believe that the new upsurge of mobile phone poetry is conducive to the development of short songs and haiku, because the creators and lovers of classical poetry are aging and in urgent need of fresh blood. The New Taxus Community, one of the traditional Japanese poetry societies, has an average age of 75, and the number of members has decreased from 10 to 3,000. Even Japan's most authoritative short song monthly "Short Song Research" has opened up a horizontal short song column for mobile phones to attract young readers. Qiu Zi An Tian, editor-in-chief of the magazine, said, "We really hope that short songs can survive with the popularity of mobile phones." .
