1984, Dong Yufang was born in Dong garden village, Liangshan County;
1984, Xu Fei and Yun-peng Yue will be born in one year. .......
1994, Li Jian was admitted to Tsinghua, and his musical talent began to appear;
1994, Dong,, is still in primary school.
20 14 A poem written by Dong based on his real experience was adapted into a song "Prose Poems Written by Father", which was sung by lyrics.
On 20 17, Li Jian contacted Xu Fei and asked to cover this song in The Singer and adapt the lyrics. After that, this originally unknown prose poem written by my father spread all over the country.
On Father's Day, 20 17, I was moved by "prose poems written by my father" and wrote a story about myself and my father, which was written by Dong as a matchmaker and released by "If there is an elevator to heaven" sung by Hehe.
Lyrics of Prose Poems Written by Father (Original Edition):
These crops were not harvested in 1984.
My daughter is lying in my arms, sleeping so soundly.
There is no time to see an open-air movie tonight.
My wife reminded me to repair the pedal of the sewing machine.
I'm going to borrow more money from my neighbor tomorrow.
The child cried all day, which made him want to eat cookies.
The blue polyester coat broke my heart.
Squatting by the pond, I punched myself twice.
This is from my father's diary.
This is a prose poem left by his youth.
Years later, I watched tears flow down.
But my father is old.
These crops were harvested in 1994.
My old mother died last year.
My daughter ran into the campus with a ponytail.
But she has been a little lonely recently and lost a lot of weight.
Think about it. I will always be a pile of old paper money in the future.
Daughters at that time will be very beautiful.
A man who loves her wants to take her home.
But I can't bear to look at her when I think about it.
This is from my father's diary.
This is the legacy of his life.
Prose poems left behind
Decades later, I watched the tears flow.
But my father is as old as an old newspaper.
old newspaper
The story above is a lifetime.
Dong: After man of iron's tender feelings "My Father's Prose Poetry" became popular, Dong was also dug out. Born in 1984, this Shandong man joined the army at the age of 18, and finally became a "literary soldier". He created a lot of poems and songs, and met his comrade-in-arms Xu Fei in Chengdu Military Region, which contributed to the later cooperation.
When reading his father's diary, Dong found that his father looked at the crying child and wanted to buy cookies for the child. Because he had no money, he had to find a way to borrow it from his neighbors ... He wrote a poem telling the true story recorded in his father's diary, which is why the song started with "1984".
After listening to this song "Sewing Machine", are you also very emotional? With the same artistic conception as "Prose Poems Written by Father", the lyrics are very realistic and sincerely express maternal love. The phrase "the north wind blows cold in winter, and you step on the sewing machine and call me a little bastard." I don't want to wear that little vest you sewed for me. " Even if your mother doesn't make clothes for you with a sewing machine, she will think of many similar scenes when she was a child.
Dong also wrote several poems, such as "Wandering Teenagers" and "The Train Passing by Haitang", all of which are classics. I also wrote I Believe and Zero Storm.
Xu Fei: Thanks to Jane Fei, she said on the program of Jilin Satellite TV in her hometown that after writing "Prose Poems Written by My Father", she didn't even have the confidence to include the songs in the album, because her father sang too many songs and only put a single on the Internet, and then not many people knew about it.
Until the spring of 20 17, Brother Jian, who can't use WeChat, sent three short messages to those who never read short messages, saying that he would cover up this poem "Prose Poem Written by Father". After waiting for a few days, he didn't receive a reply. Brother Jian went to Weibo to leave a message for Xu Fei, and Xu Fei saw the unread message, so he called Li Jian back quickly, and this cooperation came into being.
The MV of Xu Fei singing this song also became popular on the Internet. Compared with Brother Jian who deliberately restrained his feelings when singing, she was too involved, and many people thought it was her own story. An article said that Li Jian's cover was not devoted to Xu Fei's feelings and could not surpass the original.
Xu Fei sincerely thanked Brother Jian in the program of Jilin Satellite TV. It was Li Jian's cover that made this unknown song popular, and also let many people know the "super girl" Xu Fei who became popular because of That Summer.
I like this mutual fulfillment, because when you help others, you also open a window for yourself.
Li Jian: You are proud of me, but I have never been proud of you. Li Jian has mixed feelings for his father. Before this song, the song "Father" he wrote was his inner monologue.
Among them, the sentence "You are proud of me, but I have never been proud of you. It is my eternal shame that you are so generous. "It expresses his inner guilt for his father and is also a relief.
Li Jian's father is a dramatist, and Li Jian studied opera since he was a child, but his father opposed his son's music career. In junior high school, Li Jian wanted a guitar, but his father didn't agree, for fear of affecting his study. He hopes that Li Jian can have a normal good job instead of singing. Fortunately, Li Jian's mother supported him and bought him a guitar, which also kept Brother Jian's musical dream alive.
Later, Li Jian was admitted to Tsinghua University with extra points for his musical achievements. When he arrived in Tsinghua, he found that there were many schoolmasters. Li Jian once wanted to drop out of school, but only with the encouragement of his parents' letters did he insist on studying. It was also in his parents' letters that Li Jian found that his father, who had always been taciturn, was "proud" of him.
After graduation, Li Jian resolutely embarked on the road of music after working as an engineer for a period of time, but after Shui Mu's brief glory, his music career fell into silence. During this period, his father was suffering from cancer. He took out all the money to operate on his father, and his father shed tears. Father didn't recover well after the operation. Li Jian sometimes carries him to the toilet. Once, his father gently said "forgive dad" on his shoulder. The father, on the verge of life, still doesn't want to disturb his children. As you can imagine, Li Jian's father spent many times saying these four words to his son. At this time, Li Jian should be full of guilt, because he didn't have enough conditions for his father to receive the best treatment at that time, and his father's "forgiving his father" became a lingering plot in Li Jian's heart.
In this video of 20 17 "The Singer", before singing "Prose Poems Written by Father", there is a background introduction by Li Jian about the adaptation of this song. Besides talking about the details of his association with Xu Fei, he also mentioned himself and his father.
This dialogue also expresses the heartfelt wishes of countless post-70 s and post-80 s. We and our parents will not express our love for our children or parents in words and bodies as we do now. Parents and children are used to hiding their affection in their hearts, but that feeling is really tacit.
Li Jian's phrase "Our generation keeps their fathers at a respectful distance from each other" is believed to be shared by many people. When we were young, we were more in awe of our fathers, sometimes even in fear, because the people who said cruel words and even began to punish their children were basically fathers. But when we grow up, we will find that our father's attitude towards us is changing, he will care about our lives from time to time, and he will show reluctance when we leave home.
It was not until one day that we opened my father's diary that we found that my father, who once looked very strong in front of us, loved me so much and cried and apologized for not giving me a good living condition ... It is no exaggeration to say that there is no father who never pretends to force.
Li Jian's adaptation of this song not only changed the role of the lyrics from a girl to a boy, but also added a passage to the climax of the lyrics, including my favorite sentence, "This land once made me cry, and how many people have been buried in the bitter past", which suddenly raised the artistic conception of the lyrics to the height of homesickness. Every time I hear this lyric, my mind is full of mountains and rivers in my hometown, thinking of the villagers and the people who have passed away.
Before singing, Li Jian said from a professional musician's point of view that although he had cried while listening to this song, in order to achieve the effect of singing, he still had to control his emotions and try to be indifferent, so as to give the audience the best experience. He did, too. The whole audience sang bad. Although he was full of emotion, his expression was solemn and solemn, and he didn't deliberately exaggerate the atmosphere. The audience under the field was filmed to tears. I believe many people feel the same way and think of their father.
Yun-peng Yue: If there is an elevator to heaven, among the audience who are crying for Brother Jian, there will be Yun-peng Yue, who will be his partner in the singer's final. On April 30th, 20 17, Yun-peng Yue sent a message to Weibo, saying, "After listening to" Prose Poems Written by My Father ",I wrote several paragraphs about my father, each of which was true ... I finished crying and wanted to ask God for a few.
Then Pinkley wrote a prose poem for his father himself. Later, after introduction, Dong helped him refine the lyrics and made a song for him. Pinkley finished the song for his father by crying, and Xu Fei also sang a version. The lyrics are as follows:
That spring, I ran madly to the wheat field.
I said, Dad, I will be thirteen tomorrow.
I want to eat a bowl of instant noodles on TV.
You straighten up and pretend to wipe your eyes.
In the first month of that year, I rolled up the quilt and left home.
You said go out and save flowers.
The village chief installed a telephone last year.
Call if you are in a hurry, and write if you are not in a hurry.
If there is an elevator to heaven,
How I wish to see you at any cost.
Let you see my grades.
Is there a future?
If there is an elevator to heaven,
I'm going to see you anyway.
Let you see my child.
Looks like me and you.
That autumn, I sat at the table with you.
I lit a cigarette I bought in the city for you.
I said it's actually harder outside than at home.
You smoked for a long time and said that as long as you were safe
I hurried home on New Year's Eve that year.
Send you a loud mobile phone.
After I say you miss me, just press 1.
It's just that the bell that belongs to you will never ring again
If there is an elevator to heaven,
How I wish to see you at any cost.
Let you see my grades.
Is there a future?
If there is an elevator to heaven,
I'm going to see you anyway.
Let you see my child.
Looks like me and you.
Unfortunately, there is no elevator to heaven.
There is only a place that can't go back.
My last question.
Can the afterlife continue?
As we all know, Yun-peng Yue, from rural Henan, suffered a lot to achieve today's achievements, but lost his father at the peak of his career, and his inner pain can be imagined. The instant noodles in the TV bowl, the phone number of the village chief's house, the cigarettes bought in the city and the loud mobile phone are the spiritual codes of the father and son who have experienced hardships and struggles, and also the memories of those who have had similar struggles in their contemporaries.
Yun-peng Yue's songs were released on Father's Day on June 17 two years ago. Today, his heart may evoke some sadness again.
Every father has a prose poem "Prose Poem Written by Father" in his heart. I once sang this song with my son. At that time, my five-year-old son basically understood the meaning of the lyrics. I told him that cookies at that time were like high-priced remedial classes now, and not all children could eat them, so my father had to borrow money to buy them. I also remember that my father occasionally bought us some rare snacks, and now I will try to cook something delicious for my children.
Every father will have various feelings in the process of accompanying his children to grow up. In the lyrics of the female version, the father dare not imagine his daughter getting married. In the male version of the lyrics, the father hopes that the children will not live so hard when they grow up. These feelings are beyond the times. Parents in the 1990s would think so, and so would we today.
Every father has such a prose poem in his heart, and every son and daughter will have such a song singing fatherly love in his heart.
Every implicit father is full of deep affection in his heart. My father is also such a typical post-50 s father. I hardly called "dad" before I went to high school. The image of father in our sisters' hearts is so majestic and cold. Later, when I grew up, I slowly discovered that my father cared for us no less than my mother, but he was not good at expressing himself. He only did things silently, supported the family and raised us.
Implicit father's most affectionate performance should be at the wedding, whether it is tears of joy when marrying a daughter-in-law, or reluctant when marrying a daughter-in-law. At this time, the father will express his inner feelings incisively and vividly, because there is no need to hide it at this moment. The child is married and his life will eventually be complete.
I think this is another background factor of the so-called "estranged relatives". When parents get older, they have a stronger desire to express their feelings, but at this time, their children have grown up and can no longer hug, so they use all the expressions of love on their grandchildren.
On the first day of Father's Day, I received an egg from my father's hometown. I called home to talk about it. My dad said that eggs go bad at home in summer anyway, and chickens won't lay eggs for a while in hot weather. In short, I didn't say the most real intention, but I knew in my heart that this should be the tacit words of Brother Jian.
Being a father (mother) who can express love, as the father of the new era, I believe that the fathers after our generation will no longer be reserved. From the moment the child was born, we did not hesitate to express our love. Under our influence, children will always say the words "I love you, mom, I love you", which is the embodiment of the progress of the times.
Children know Father's Day from kindergarten, and teachers will ask them to make gifts for their fathers. This sense of ritual can really enhance the relationship between father and son. I received this beautiful painting this year, and I remembered the first lyric in Li Jian's Father-"Sitting on the shore watching the sunset reminds me of you, warm and gentle as your affectionate eyes ..." The child told his grandfather in the video yesterday that this is his grandfather and father. .......
Expressing love, letting children know the value of family ties and realizing zero-distance communication between parents and children are conducive to children's learning and growth. Starting from us, we should pass on such a family communication culture, so that our younger generation will know how to express more and more, family relations will be more harmonious and the nation will be stronger.
Happy Father's Day!
