Wang Leehom’s inspiration for this song came from a dream. In my dream, I dreamed of recording a song with Zhang Jingying, and the lyrics in my dream were very clear. After waking up, Wang Leehom recorded the lyrics, and there was this song. This song expresses the affection between lovers very romantically. Under the interpretation of Wang Leehom and Zhang Liangying's affectionate voices, the unforgettable love moved the listener. In this two-person chorus song, Zhang Jianying no longer blindly show off his skills, Wang Leehom and Zhang Jianying accommodate each other without losing their characteristics, just like the lyrics. "Another Paradise" is an unexpected joy in the album. Zhang Jianying sang the dolphin sound and the distorted guitar in the interlude part, which is wonderful, while Wang Leehom’s high-pitched sound shows another kind of tension, like the guzheng and electric guitar That kind of reverb has a sense of dislocation and freshness.
The song we hear now is "Change Yourself" written by Leehom Wang himself. This song also comes from his eponymous album "Change Yourself". In the song "Change Yourself", Leehom mentioned environmental issues that the world is paying attention to. Starting from his life, he lightly pointed out the current problems of excessive carbon dioxide and global warming. Leehom also started with this problem.

Every instrument in this song, guitar, piano, bass, and drums, is written and played by Leehom Wang alone. He hopes that the song can show the most true inner feelings through the purest hand-playing. "Heartbeat" is a very special song among Leehom Wang's songs. Leehom Wang has abandoned the academic creation methods and does not start from the theory of music, but starts from the deepest thoughts. The melody and lyrics are naturally natural, in short In the short sentences, one word expresses the attitude towards feelings. "Heartbeat" is a good song that makes people want to quiet down and listen in the hustle and bustle.
The song we are hearing now comes from the collaboration of Leehom Wang and Datong Fang, "Flow", composed of the lyrics and composition of Leehom Wang and Datong Fang. This song is included in Datong's album "JTW Journey to the West". Datong was born on Garden Island in Hawaii. He is the composer, music producer and singer of Mando-pop/R&B/Soul. His unique style comes from the influence of a period of multi-music and cultural evolution. Datong’s father was a professional drummer, so he began to be influenced by various types of music when he was young, including Soul, Funk, Jazz, and so on. Although born in Hawaii, Datong lived in Shanghai and Guangzhou as a child and was nourished by China and Chinese culture. After moving to Hong Kong, he began to experiment with songwriting and demo recording at home. His expectation is to bring pure Soul, R&B and Hiphop elements into the Chinese music scene. In contrast to the traditional Chinese model that has always been based on melody, Datong is one of the few Chinese music creators who focus on rhythm and key passages.
Now what we hear is from WangLeehom's "Two People Are Not Equal to Us", this song is included in Leehom's album "Evolution of Music." Every note in the pursuit of musical ideals is an evolution. Leehom's somber and introverted new singing voice is as true and close as singing in a low voice. In order to express the introverted emotion in the song, Leehom chewed himself in this space. The arrangement uses piano and guitar as the main axis. There are also a lot of plots of playing piano and guitar in the song, creating a kind of two instruments as if playing The calm atmosphere of the dialogue fits perfectly with the artistic conception of the lyrics, which is moving.
What we are hearing now is the cover of "A Dream" by Leehom Wang on "The Voice of China 2019". The original singer of "Dream One" is Na Ying, and Yuan Weiren wrote the lyrics and music. Leehom's extremely recognizable timbre and singing skills, and his extremely detached control and mastery of the voice can be seen in "Dream One". The arrangement part and breakthrough singing are also very attractive. Especially the last erhu blasted the scene. The healing voice came on leisurely. In addition to Leehom's own talent, the late voice trembling with obsession, emotional coverage and emotional derivation are even better. Lin Yutang said, "A true traveler must be a wanderer, experiencing the happy temptation and will of adventure of the wanderer." Leehom is just like this, keeping the original heart of innocence, and freely wandering in the music without confusion. Returning from the year of 1989, I am still sassy, telling you word by word, even after years of washing, I am still that Wang Leehom.
The song we hear now is "Our Song", written by You Chen Xinyan and Leehom Wang, and by Leehom Wang. "Our Song" cleverly incorporates the two song titles "Forever Love" and "Kiss Goodbye", and the sentence "Knowing you makes my happiness so sweet" shows the link between the song and the feeling; in this song Leehom used a small person's perspective to sing a mood that everyone can resonate with. "Our Song" sang the pleasant harmony in Wang Leehom's heart, and sang the simplest touch. The perfect combination of electric guitar and drum kit is very charming. The long tune brings out the little happiness in everyone's heart. This song is very durable. Every time you listen to it, you will have a different feeling. The more you listen to it, the more charming it is. Just like the lyrics said, "I have listened to it a hundred times, and I will never get tired of listening." This song is also by Leehom Wang A classic, if the world is too dangerous, let us hide into the world of music.
Today’s last song is "Fallen Leaves Return to the Roots", written and composed by Leehom Wang. "Falling Leaves Return to Root" is a song created by Leehom Wang with the mentality of making movies. It is signed by Y.M/KUANG, which happens to be the pinyin abbreviation of Kuang Yumin's character in the movie "Lust Caution". It can be said that this character has many overlaps with him, and the creation is also influenced by the character. "Falling Leaves Return to Roots" was influenced by the movie "Lust Caution", and the retro style with a beautiful melody with a violin to accompany it makes people feel different from the past. The string music played by 10 musicians in the song is the highlight, while the lyrics describe a wanderer’s reflection and feelings about fate through sentimental and gloomy brushstrokes, paving the way for an American-born Chinese to return to Chinese culture. journey. This song has a melodious tune and endless aftertaste, which makes it sound a bit lonely.
