Chapter 620 You Are My Sunshine! (two chapters in one)

The clear night sky is glowing with a lavender halo, and the thin clouds are floating with a shallow moonlight.

Just like this piece of sky mixed with modern light pollution, but still picturesque, under the close maintenance of the houses on all sides, the clean and unique courtyard seems to have become a rare piece of "quietness" in this ancient imperial city earth.

In the small courtyard, Dai Yuni sat on the recliner specially brought out for her, holding a small pillow in her arms.

Although her posture is very lazy, but her two bright eyes are very agile, shining with light, looking at Yang Qian across the table with great interest, looking forward to his playing and singing.

"You are my sunshine, my only sunshine,

You make me happy, when skies are gray” (Note 1)

In fact, Yang Qian's fingerstyle at the beginning, the simple, fresh, and soft melody, has already lifted Dai Yuni's spirit.

But unexpectedly, Yang Qian sang even better!
It's not the kind of slobbery song that was stuttering and unfinished. Its lyrics are very artistic.

"You are my sunshine, my only sunshine,
You make me happy even when the sky is cloudy"

Very simple English sentences, Dai Yuni followed Yang Qian for the past two years, learned English very diligently, so she could understand them naturally.

Of course, even if Yang Qian hummed softly regardless of the meaning of the lyrics, his clean voice fully interpreted the melody of this song.

"You'll never know dear, how much I love you,

Please don't take my sunshine away"

(Translation: Honey, you won't know how much I love you,

Please don't take my sunshine away)

Yang Qian actually just sang a few lines, shaking his head.

But Dai Yuni was already fascinated, especially the line "how much I love you" sung by Yang Qian.

Even though she is used to having each other in her life and getting along like an old couple in life, at this moment, Dai Yuni still felt a little blushing, feeling romanticized by the big wood.

"Look, does it look like the story of the red snapper? The male red snapper is the sunshine (sunshine) in the whole fish school, and then everyone tightly surrounds him. Then when the sunshine disappeared, everyone panicked. until a female fish came forward and turned into sunshine”

After Yang Qian finished singing, he still felt that his thinking was very novel, so he laughed with his wife.

Dai Yuni, who came back to her senses, glared at him angrily.

I thought the big wood became romantic, but it turned out to be a big wood!
"Sing, sing, and say what is the fish that we have eaten?"

Dai Yuni said angrily.

"Just kidding. But then again, do you think this song is good?"

Yang Qian touched his nose in embarrassment.

"It sounds good. I felt peaceful and comfortable when I listened to it! As long as you don't interrupt and don't spoil the scenery!"

Dai Yuni commented sharply.

"Haha, my fault. This song is really suitable as prenatal education music. Its melody is relatively retro and simple, and the lyrics also have a kind of heart-warming power. I will record it later, and record two versions, etc. The baby is bigger in the womb, you can play it at home, let the baby listen to the mother's singing for a while, and listen to the father's singing for a while."

Although Yang Qian jokingly played this song because of the red snapper, he was also inspired as he sang it.

Before that, he and Dai Yuni had also talked about prenatal education music.

At the beginning, I thought that pop music can be listened to, but the most important thing is to listen to some inspiring classical music.

But now Yang Qian has a new idea - he can create one or two prenatal education music albums specially for babies!
Although it may not be comparable to the effect of the legendary Mozart music, at least it is sung by parents themselves, and the meaning will be very different!
Dai Yuni didn't know that Yang Qian had thought so much just now. When she heard what Yang Qian said, her thoughts were still on the song "You are my sunshine".

"Did you improvise the song just now, or have you written the complete song?"

Dai Yuni asked curiously.

"I wrote a complete one, but the complete one may not be suitable for babies to listen to. Because after the expansion, for the sake of the fluency of the whole story line, its background becomes a slightly sad story, and it may be a little sad to sing But if you intercept the passage I sang just now and leave the chorus part, you can sing warmer and warmer."

Yang Qian introduced honestly.

"Listen to the complete song!"

Dai Yuni twisted her buttocks on the recliner, unable to lie down at all, she straightened up again when she was restless, and urged Yang Qian with great interest.

"Complete? Let me change my style."

Yang Qian thought for a while and decided to change to the original country music style.

Because of the previous excerpts, Yang Qian hoped to sing in a more gentle and quiet style, so the style of the music he played changed accordingly. The music he played was adapted by later generations on the earth, which is more like the category of popular lyrical songs. melody.

But if you want to sing the whole story, this song belongs to warm and bright sadness, expressing the unforgettable sadness of wanting to save the lover who is about to leave, but also forced to smile.

In this way, the more retro country music playing style of the original song is more suitable for such emotional expression.

No need for much preparation, Yang Qian, who has already played the guitar with passion, used a slightly brisk strumming to bring the atmosphere around the round table into an environment of a country dance club where people can't help but want to nod to the beat !

"The other night dear as I lay sleeping,

I dreamed I held you in my arm,

But when I awoke dear I was mistaken,

And I hung my head and cried”

(Translation: Honey, when I lay down to sleep that night,
I dreamed I held you in my arms,
But when I got up, darling, I realized it was a misunderstanding,
Then I hold my head and cry bitterly)

Yang Qian couldn't imitate the gramophone-like tone of singers of that era, but he could imitate this special articulation rhythm, and even the tone had the feeling of fluctuating like dance music.

Therefore, when he spoke, Dai Yuni couldn't help raising her eyebrows.

Has Damu studied any weird singing methods recently?
It's not surprising that she sees too much.

It's just that this way of singing looks like it's drunk and started to play tunes, but it sounds surprisingly delicious!

Of course, the lyrics were a bit sad, and Dai Yuni couldn't listen to them all at once, but she still noticed the last line of "hug your head and cry".

what story?Why are you crying all of a sudden?
“You are my sunshine my only sunshine”

He sang the refrain that Yang Qian had sung before.

Dai Yuni is very familiar with this passage, but emotionally it is very different from the previous one.

When Yang Qian sang "You Are My Sunshine, My Only Sunshine" before, he sang tenderly, and he still looked at himself, the deep affection in his eyes made Dai Yuni sweet to his heart.

But at this moment, Yang Qian closed his eyes and shook his head in a helpless gesture.

Although Yang Qian's voice is still as clear and soft as before, but in the softness here, because of Sunshine's accent, it seems to have become mixed, and even faintly bitter emotions leaked out
"I'll always love you and make you happy,

If you will only say the same”

(Translation: I will always love you and make you happy,
If you want to say so.)

Yang Qian continued to sing, but Dai Yuni's brows were already deeply frowned.

Just when the mood was more gloomy and even a bit extreme, Yang Qian came back to his senses. He opened his eyes and saw the expression of his wife.

"What's wrong? Is it not good to sing like this?"

Yang Qian took the initiative to stop and asked with concern.

"It's not bad, there is something nice about singing this way, but I always feel weird when I listen to it, and I don't like this feeling."

Dai Yuni shook her head gently, and said hesitantly.

Generally speaking, Dai Yuni would not have such resistance to a song, especially the song "written" by Yang Qian.

Even if she listens to a style she is not used to, even if she listens to Cantonese songs that are difficult to understand and require a lot of effort to ponder, she will fully respect Yang Qian's efforts and encourage him to play in different styles and different styles. To develop his creative talent under the category.

But after Yang Qian changed his way of singing this song, Dai Yuni felt very sad when she heard it, and even felt a sense of panic and helplessness.

"I think it might be because of the lyrics you added now, and your retro singing style, which gave me a bad association, right?"

Dai Yuni is a person who can't hide her words in her heart. Under Yang Qian's concerned eyes, she stroked it carefully, and explained to Yang Qian why she didn't like this singing.

"What bad association?"

Yang Qian scratched his head, he carefully stroked the lyrics, and suddenly found a problem.

It’s no wonder that the singers on the earth removed the verse part in the cover song. It turned out that it was about a beloved person who fell in love with someone else and left, and the protagonist tried to express his inner unwillingness!
Yang Qian also knew that there was such a plot before, so he sang the original work only at the urging of Dai Yuni.

"Hey, you don't have to think too much. The creation of this song is an artistic extension. It is based on the lyrics we sang at the beginning and expanded to a complete story line, so there is this rather sad plot. But if you don't If you like it, I won’t sing these, let’s sing the nice part, you will be happy listening to this part, right? The important thing is that you like it, if you don’t like it, we won’t sing it!”

Yang Qian smiled and comforted his wife.

"I know, actually I don't want to be so hypocritical. Music creation must be a manifestation of artistry, and you can't write a real experience in every song! It's like writing a novel, and most of the time it is fictional. Same story."

Dai Yuni pouted her lips slightly. She felt that she was not so sentimental before. Could it be because she was pregnant and was affected by progesterone?

Master Ni should not be afraid of the sky and the earth!

I shouldn't have cared about anything!

It should be chic and unrestrained, indomitable!

Why do you feel so sad when you listen to the song just now?
"I want a hug."

Dai Yuni stretched out her arms, pouted her mouth coquettishly,

Acting like a baby is not an exception, Ni Ye was originally a little girl in front of Big Wood.

Yang Qian put down the guitar, got up and went over.

Dai Yuni also moved her butt to make room for Yang Qian.

The two of them huddled together on a reclining chair. Fortunately, the reclining chair was sturdy and didn't fall apart during strenuous exercise before, so they don't have to worry about it now.

"No more, we don't sing this song if we don't like it."

Yang Qian hugged his daughter-in-law, let her head rest on his chest, and coaxed her distressedly.

"No, it's not that I can't sing, but I have become a little crying now, and I feel that the song just now is a bit like my mother at that time."

Dai Yuni put her arms around his waist, and the little bird nestled in his arms like a human being, and began to confide.

"Like our mother? Why do you say that?"

Yang Qian was stunned.

No, isn't the plot of "You are my sunshine" like this?

"It's very similar. My mother is also like the sun, shining on my father. After she left, I felt that my father's eyes were lost, and there was only endless work."

Dai Yuni even thought about whether Yang Qian's song was written based on old Comrade Dai. After all, he had a criminal record in the previous "Looking Back"
Yes, Dai Yuni didn't fully understand the meaning of the song "You are my sunshine"!
Listening to English songs is a big problem in itself, not to mention that she was influenced by her own thoughts and didn't listen to the songs carefully all the way. Naturally, she misunderstood the meaning of the lyrics!
Yang Qian also figured out from her words that she must have misunderstood the meaning of the lyrics.

However, he didn't point it out.

Because it doesn't make sense!

Point it out, won't the daughter-in-law feel sad?
She was thinking of her mother, that's why she was sad!

Yang Qian knew that all he could do was listen.

"I have another reason why I don't want you to sing like this, that is, I don't want to be like this song. I want to be your sunshine and stay by your side all the time."

Dai Yuni hesitated for a moment, but still said the last sentence in her heart.

The death of her mother made her see her father's loneliness.

So Dai Yuni longs for a complete and happy family!

Whether it's her or her big log, she doesn't want anyone to leave first.

Especially Big Wood, he is so smart, so easy to be sad, so easy to be melancholy, let yourself be the warmest sunshine around him!

Just like in the lyrics:

“You make me happy when skies are gray”

(Translation: You make me happy, even when the sky is cloudy.)
"I understand, I need you to accompany me too!"

Yang Qian hugged her tightly, bowed his head, and kissed her soft hair gently.

You are my sunshine!
(Note 1: "You are my sunshine", this is an old song released during World War II, the original song was written and sung by Jimmie Davis, it belongs to the genre of country music. But Jimmie Davis is not just a country music singer, He was also the governor of Louisiana. He is a legendary singer. Of course, everyone should be familiar with this song, because it has been covered by many well-known singers in China, such as Twins, Mavis Fan, and most recently Jane Zhang. Appeared as the English theme song of "Why Shengxiaomo"—however, it is the movie version of "Why Shengxiaomo". Ahem, Master Huang also sang the Chinese version, but that's fine, you don't need to listen to it, hot ear)

　This chapter is really not easy to take apart, so I published the two in one.Xiaohan has to make an explanation here, so that everyone will not worry that Xiaohan will write indiscriminately. "Fans" is a warm and happy story, and there will be no sad ending. The image is more three-dimensional.
