The title song of Jolin Tsai's concept album "Muse" " The Great Artist " uses the coolest way to interpret European dance music, without any pleasing to the Chinese music audience and showing off his sexy image, which is enough to compete with European and American female singers.
mentions other people's names in the song and is naturally rare in Chinese pop music , and Jolin Tsai did the ultimate in "The Great Artist". She mentioned Takashi Murakami, Picasso, Van Gogh, Monet, Andy Warhol, and without any intention.
"He is not Van Gogh nor Mone" is similar to Madonna's "Marlon Brando, Jimmy Dean" sang in 1990.
Because Van Gogh and Monet are both recognized masters in the world, Marlon Brando and Jimmy Dean are also representatives of the entire Golden Age of Hollywood. No matter how many years they will be remembered in world history, which also ensures that the lyrics of "The Great Artist" can still resonate with people in a few years, just like you feel when you hear Madonna's "VOGUE".
The reason why Jolin Tsai can occupy the artistic high point is due to Jolin Tsai's sense of trend towards international music culture is first-class. She smelled this retro trend of that the Renaissance sought after the culture of the old era.
Jolin Tsai is a single-type artist. Many times Jolin Tsai's albums are in the form of "commercial works + concept masterpieces". Jolin Tsai likes to make avant-garde things in singles, and often cannot be compatible with commercial works, so every album she seems to be a hodgepodge.
But Jolin Tsai's most talented thing is that she used her entire career to to challenge the dominance of lyrics in Chinese music.
In the past, the music of Chinese music masters such as Teresa Teng Faye Wong was accompanied by poetic and picturesque lyrics.
But from Jolin Tsai it became another way:
"Those words are inexplicable"
"The air starts to smoke in the dream"
"Beautiful limit, love beauty has no end"
" Love thirty-six strategies , keep beautiful at all times"
"Rotation Jump I closed my eyes"
"Love bus always leaves and stops"
"No matter which kind of potato you are I bah "
I know many people don't know what she is going to express, but the lyrics that seem a bit inexplicable are rock master Performance. These lyrics are made by Jolin Tsai into the "original language" of Iconic, and even formed a culture.
But think about it carefully, in front of the European and American music scene, Madonna sang: "Like a virgin, hey! It seems like the first time I was touched" , and later Katy Perry sang: "Do you feel like a plastic bag?" , now Cardi B has another song: "Press press, press press, press, cardi doesn't need to be pressed" ...
The best thing about "The Great Artist" is that it is completely different from most Chinese music in the past . Although Jolin Tsai's own efforts cannot save the current Chinese music scene , it is at least a great attempt.
