We don't understand poetry because we don't open it the right way.

A detailed analysis of the subtleties of the poem will lead you to listen to the source of poetry and discover the beauty and power of poetry.

I listened to the interpretation of Nishikawa floating in the Wind, in which he said poems and songs, which reminded me of these three people.

I posted Douban radio yesterday, saying, "Li Jian is my ideal type, the type I want to be." Oh, yes, the singer I like finally watched a big concert on Christmas Eve last year. After listening to Li Jian for 10 years since 2007, I realized that his song was the most ideal way for me to express my feelings. His singing about hometown, love and time poked me minute by minute. On the surface, Li Jian is a singer, but in fact, he is more like a poet. He has a rare temperament, or it is this temperament, as well as a unique way of expressing emotion, that sings a poem into a song.

for example, his singing of "strangers" is the best explanation for missing and drifting in his hometown; his singing of "missing you" is an attachment to his father and mother, reluctant to give up, and a retention of time; he sings "when you are old", it is the best yearning for love.

when you are Old is not the original song of Li Jian, but his tactful emotion moved me.

in fact, this poem "when you are Old" was originally a poem written by William Butler Yeats in 1893. When he wrote it down at that time, Yeats also wrote about his girlfriend's strong and sincere love. Even after more than a hundred years, it is also an excellent form of expression of love, not to mention how many artistic expressions he used. Not to mention the adjectives such as "hypothetical imagination", "contrast", "image emphasis" and "symbolic sublimation", as long as you read it silently or sing it gently, you can recreate his unswerving love for his girlfriend.

when you are old and gray and sleepy

when you are old and unable to walk

nodding by the fire and remembering your youth

how many people have loved you when you were young

love your beauty

only one person still loves your pious soul

the wrinkles on your old face  And Li Jian's singing makes me look forward to it very much. Maybe when we appreciate poetry, we just don't find the right way.

when I was a child, "Reading Poems" always solemnly read every poem into a sonorous and forceful appearance, but there are so many poems in the world, some may be able to sing lightly, some may be read gently, and some may need to be interpreted by others to understand the beauty of words.

Li Jian is certainly not a serious poet, but he has said more than once that his favorite singer, Leonard Cohen, can. Many people know that, Leonard Cohen released his first album at the age of 32, but his status as a poet was 11 years earlier than that of a musician.

Leonard Cohen's poems have not only been assembled into volumes and published thirteen collections of poems, but at the same time, his poems are also found in the lyrics of each of his songs. Although his music is more famous than poetry, without poetry, there will be no place for Leonard Cohen in the music world.

Leonard Cohen is destined to be a poem all his life, a beautiful and shining poem. Born into a middle-class Jewish family, he grew up rich and unfettered. He started playing the guitar at the age of 13, playing in a cafe Sing a year or two later, playing a band at the age of 17, writing poetry at the same time, and when he was still in college, his collection of poems had been published and sold.

when he was young, he was an aphrodisiac, addicted to women and hallucinogens, and after playing enough, he began to travel around the world and lived in seclusion with a beautiful woman on an island in Greece for seven years, during which he published several books of poetry and novels. Millions of copies have been sold. His first album was a hit, and a series of best-selling songs made him a pop idol.

came into contact with religion and real melancholy. It took five years to write Hallelujah, which has been sung by, Bob Dylan, Bono, Bon Jovi, John Cale, etc., and is used as an interlude or melody in many movies and TV dramas.

at the age of 60, he cut his hair as a monk and retreated to an empty door. He chose to live in seclusion in a meditation center on the bald hills of Southern California and became a monk for five years under the dharma name "Jikan". After five years of spiritual practice, his most trusted agent unknowingly transferred his property to his own name, and when he found out, there was almost nothing left. Fortunately, after the baptism of Buddhism, the 70-year-old man is no longer afraid. Like a soldier, he dusted off his suit, put on his feathered hat and embarked on a tour to regain his wealth.

left at the age of 82, publishing his last album.

Susan takes you to her place by the river

the boat sails past

you can spend the night with her

you know she's a little crazy

but that's why you love being there

she brings out Chinese tea and oranges

just when you start to say

you have no love. And let the river answer and tell you

you have always been her lover

this is my favorite first album "Suzan" of Leonard Cohen.Ne ", whispering and singing about a love story, a little sad, a little sad, but a touch of love.

Bob Dylan, who is also 9 years younger than Lenord Cohen, is also a poet. He once said of himself, "I think I am a poet before I am a musician." I live like a poet, and I will still be a poet after death. "

Bob Dylan formed his own band in high school. When he was in college, he became interested in folk songs and began to perform in the folk circle near the school, using Bob Dylan as his stage name for the first time.

he has won several Grammy Awards, and his song "Things have changed" for the movie "Miracle Boy" in 2000 won an Oscar for Best original Song. Bob Dylan was named by time magazine as the 100 most influential people of the 20th century.

but he not only changed the history of rock music, but also influenced countless people outside the field of music. For example, Steve Jobs once said, "Bob Dylan is the most respected poet and musician of our time, and he is also my hero."

in 2004, Rolling Stone magazine ranked, Bob Dylan's "Like a rolling stone" as the greatest song in history, which was extended as a kind of rock spirit and an attitude towards life. His other work, "Blowing in the Wind", is also among the greatest 500th songs in history. It is a masterpiece of "Folk Song and Rock" and is regarded as a hymn of the civil rights movement.

"in my opinion, any of the songs I write will not be out of date, no matter what topic they are about, they carry things that I will never find the answer." -- Bob Dylan

if you are not familiar with Bob Dylan, just remember one thing: he is a poet, and his greatest contribution to music is to make the deep meaning of the lyrics as important as the melody through poetic lyrics.

how many roads does a person have to go

before others can call him a person?

how many seas does a pigeon have to fly

before it can sleep on the beach?

how many times does the cannonball have to be fired before it will be invalidated forever

my friend, the answer is floating in the wind

the answer is floating in the wind

this is his "Blowing in the Wind" lyrics, which is collected in "Poems for Children" on the North Island.

in Douban time, "Nishikawa's interpretation is floating in the Wind". What he said in it is very interesting, probably meaning that there is not much difference between poetry and song, otherwise how to call it "poetry", while poetry and song are never read, they are used to listen. I quite agree.

if you want to ask me the difference between a singer and a poet, I can't say exactly why, but in my opinion, it is not necessary to distinguish it so clearly. Poems and songs are all ways of expressing emotions, and we, through poems or songs, get resonance, catharsis and spiritual sustenance.

you see, Li Jian sings for us. His idols Leonard Cohen and Bob Dylan sing to us, but too many poems fail to hear.
