Speech problems in popular songs

There is a sentence in Chen Hong's "Happy Years" that "True love is not enough", and "true love" should not be used interchangeably;

There is a sentence in Wu Qilong's "Turn" that "The sky is blue." , the road is long, people are wandering in the sea of ????people, and the lies are broken, and the lies are fulfilled, and they are at a loss at that time." Among them, "wandering, ending" does not conform to the language habits;

"Qinghai-Tibet Plateau" 》"Mountains and rivers" The quantifier of mountains can be "seat", but the quantifier of rivers cannot be "seat".

"Greater China" "Mount Everest is the highest slope." A mountain is a mountain, why is it a hillside? The use of the word "po" is obviously a rhyme, a perfunctory and scrawled behavior done out of necessity, and the rhyme harms the meaning.

The lyrics of some popular songs are "illogical, illogical, full of grammatical errors, full of flaws, and horrible to watch." Its manifestations can be summed up as the "Ten Major Flaws":

1. The content is absurd and incoherent. There is a song called "God bless the people who have finished eating" and it sings: "I really don't want to be able to ascend to heaven alive/I just want to be able to live/waste the remaining time correctly/I want to keep my Dantian..." This kind of vulgar, There are countless absurd lyrics, and its poisonous effect on young people is also clear. It not only pollutes the language environment, but also numbs people's thoughts and even instigates crime.

2. The language throughout the article is rubbish and full of bad sentences. There is an MTV song called "Very Hurt". The female singer sings with great emotion, singing and dancing. She repeatedly sings "In the days without you, I am very hurt, very hurt, hurt everywhere...", repeating this sentence several times, It really makes people worry whether "cancerous changes" will occur after being "injured".

3. Big words and clichés. Such songs have the legacy of the "Cultural Revolution", such as "Great Leap Forward Folk Songs" such as "I am the Jade Emperor, I am the Dragon King", as well as repeated versions of "Yangtze River, Yellow River", "Kunlun, Taishan", big words and falsehoods. Words and nonsense are flying everywhere. Contemporary lyrics seem to have the potential to return the legacy of the "Cultural Revolution". The song "Work Well" at the CCTV Spring Festival Gala in 2000 used common sense and nonsense to preach, such as "Work hard to have a good life" and "Produce more innovations and achievements". In short, it only used vernacular to scare the people.

4. Confused thinking and talking in sleep. In the 2000 CCTV Spring Festival Gala, songs such as "Tonight Forever", "Dragon Jubilee Millennium", "Western Rhapsody" and other songs, just looking at the song titles will make people feel like they are in a sea of ??fog. "New", so the artistry is compromised and cannot withstand scrutiny.

5. Imitation, show-off, shoddy production. A phenomenon in literary creation is that excellent works are all different, while inferior works are often surprisingly similar: for example, "Make a Phone Call" is a copy of "Go Home Often", and "Wish You Happy" is A low-level riff on "Peace to You."

6. Half earth and half ocean, neither a donkey nor a horse. Some lyricists and musicians have always had a half-hearted understanding of classical poetry, but they never hide their clumsiness and make a big joke. For example, sentences such as "Only painstaking efforts and good intentions" and "Heaven alone hurts itself secretly" are full of fallacies. One sentence is wrong, or even several sentences are wrong.

7. It is empty and tastes like chewing wax. From the "northwest wind" to the "rock wave", straightforward, empty, slippery and overflowing modern love themes, pretentious and meaningless "rhymes" and "Song of the Four Seasons" flood the screen, causing pollution to the national language and causing great harm.

8. The words do not convey the meaning and the grammar is confusing. Lyrics are the art of language. Grammar, rhetoric, and structure all have rules to follow. Looking at the world of poetry, there are many people who do not match the words of the donkey and the horse. For example, "mountains after mountains, mountains and rivers after mountains", "picking up a glass of wine in the morning and evening", "really and truly love is not enough", etc., there are "flaws" in grammar everywhere, including made-up words, nonsense, and nonsense. , people can't understand it anyway. No wonder many teachers are complaining and worried when they mention the "phenomenon of quoting lyrics" in students' compositions.

9. Violation of rules and self-contradiction. The artistic image is empty and shallow, the expression style is low-key, and the lyrics are contradictory. If it is allowed to spread, the negative social effects it will produce cannot be underestimated.

There is a hit song called "Garbage Dump", which goes like this: "The world we live in is like a garbage dump/People are like worms fighting for each other in it/Everything you eat is your conscience, and everything you eat is your thoughts..." So " The "strange smell" emitted by the garbage dump is not environmental pollution.

10. Gu Ying feels sorry for himself and moans for no reason. Some songs escape reality, have low style, sad spring and autumn, and moan for no reason. Ridiculous songs such as "Flies" and "Ants", whose titles alone make people sick, were openly made into cassettes, filmed on MTV, and ranked on the charts.
