Where does the phrase "the sky is blue, I'm waiting for you, smoke billows from the kitchen, and a thousand miles across the river" come from?

From-Blue and White Porcelain by Jay Chou.

Blue and White Porcelain is a song written and sung by Fang Gang and Jay Chou. It was included in Jay Chou's album "I'm Busy" released on June 2nd, 2007.

Blue and white porcelain lyrics:

The embryo outlines the blue-and-white brush strokes that turn from thick to light.

The peony depicted on the bottle is like your first makeup.

I know Ran Ran sandalwood through the window.

The pen on the rice paper is half here.

Glaze color rendering the charm of female figure is hidden.

You smile like a bud.

Your beauty is drifting away.

Go where I can't go

The sky is blue, I am waiting for you.

Smoke from the stove floated across the river thousands of miles away.

Carved calligraphy at the bottom of the bottle imitates the elegance of the previous dynasty.

Think of it as the foreshadowing of meeting you.

The sky is blue, I am waiting for you.

The moonlight was salvaged, dizzy.

For example, blue and white porcelain passed down from generation to generation.

There's a smile in your eyes

Koi fish, with white flowers and blue color, jumped to the bottom of the bowl.

I miss you when I copy my signature.

The secret you hid in the kiln for thousands of years.

Very delicate, like an embroidery needle landing.

Outside the fence, bananas cause showers and knockers cause patina.

I passed by that small town in the south of the Yangtze River and made you angry.

In splash-ink landscape painting

You are hidden in the depths of ink.

The sky is blue, I am waiting for you.

Smoke from the stove floated across the river thousands of miles away.

Carved calligraphy at the bottom of the bottle imitates the elegance of the previous dynasty.

Think of it as the foreshadowing of meeting you.

The sky is blue, I am waiting for you.

The moonlight was salvaged, dizzy.

For example, blue and white porcelain passed down from generation to generation.

There's a smile in your eyes

The sky is blue, I am waiting for you.

Smoke from the stove floated across the river thousands of miles away.

Carved calligraphy at the bottom of the bottle imitates the elegance of the previous dynasty.

Think of it as the foreshadowing of meeting you.

The sky is blue, I am waiting for you.

The moonlight was salvaged, dizzy.

For example, blue and white porcelain passed down from generation to generation.

There's a smile in your eyes?

Creation background

Vincent fang met several friends who appreciate antique art, and in the thousand-year chat with them, such as bronzes, Song porcelain, Ming and Qing furniture, he triggered his motivation to use those China artworks handed down from generation to generation as Song titles.

At this time, Fang Wenqing first thought of bronzes. Originally, it was intended to use the bronze wares cast in Shang Dynasty as the song title, and the thickness of bronze symbolizes the loyalty of love. Compare the vicissitudes of the world with the mottled copper rust of the Millennium; Explain the mystery of the oath with the incomprehensible inscription on the container.

But when I first started writing, I found that the tune of Jay Chou's song was gentle and euphemistic, elegant and refined, so that all that came to my mind were pictures of misty rain in the south of the Yangtze River. Because the bronzes at that time were also made into weapons to kill the enemy, it seems that the word "bronze" is too heavy and clumsy, full of smoke, so the lyrics that were still conceived were given up before writing.

Later, Vincent Fang chose Ruyao porcelain, which was once very popular in the Song Dynasty, mainly because of its rarity. Due to the war, kiln glaze formula and firing process, there are only more than 70 treasures handed down from ancient times in Ru kiln, which is a national treasure and precious.

But the problem comes again, because the pure top-grade Ru kiln has only one color, that is, "azure", without any fancy ornamentation at all, and its shape is simple and elegant. In my opinion, it's like the works of today's minimalist masters. Although the connotation is simple and the texture is lasting, I always feel that it is not enough to describe treacherous and changeable love with love and hate.

Although Ru Yao was not used as the title of the lyrics in the end, in the process of collecting writing materials, the future was achieved because of the phrase "after the rain clears, the clouds break and people die". Words, trigger its inspiration and write the first sentence of the chorus "misty rain is like sky blue"

It is said that this sentence came from Song Huizong, because the Ru kiln at that time was dedicated to the Song royal family, and when the kiln official asked to name its color after firing Ru kiln porcelain, the royal family approved: "Rain breaks the blue clouds, so color will be the future."

From then on, azure is the color name of Ru kiln porcelain. But later Fang Wensheng gave up using Ru kiln as a song title, because its characteristics were not suitable for sentimental love, and the name Ru kiln was a bit too sad. After many twists and turns, the song was finally named Blue and White Porcelain, which was first burned in the Tang Dynasty and lasted for more than 1000 years. It is the most representative export art in China.

At the beginning, Fang Wensen determined the lyrics of misty rain like sky blue, and it didn't take long to write the second sentence of the chorus "I'm waiting for you", so the key word of the first sentence of the chorus was born: "misty rain like sky blue, and I'm waiting for you".

Because the sky blue described in the lyrics can't appear by itself, it must wait patiently for a rain that doesn't know when it will come before it can appear as sky blue in the clear sky where cumulus clouds disperse.

Because the sky blue will appear after the rain, and the sky blue will only appear after the rain, but Vincent Fang, on the other hand, said that if you want to see the sky blue, you have to wait until the rain clears. Also, the reason why "misty rain" is used instead of "rain" is purely because misty rain is more beautiful in artistic conception.
