Another song from his new album. By the way I just discovered that the name of his album is 我很忙 (”I’m very busy”) which is so hilerious in my opinion. Proves what a good artist he is, if he can call his album that way… This song here is called 青花瓷, which means something like porcelain vase of flowers, if I’m not completely mistaken. It has a very interesting sound in my opinion, because it has some modern elements (reminds me a bit of Rap) but also many traditional Chinese melodies. So make sure you listen to it!
Here are the lyrics:
周杰伦 - 青花瓷
素胚勾勒出青花笔锋浓转淡
瓶身描绘的牡丹一如你初妆
冉冉檀香透过窗心事我了然
宣纸上走笔至此搁一半釉色渲染仕女图韵味被私藏
而你嫣然的一笑如含苞待放
你的美一缕飘散去到我去不了的地方天青色等烟雨而我在等你
炊烟袅袅升起隔江千万里
在瓶底书汉隶仿前朝的飘逸
就当我为遇见你伏笔天青色等烟雨而我在等你
月色被打捞起晕开了结局
如传世的青花瓷自顾自美丽你眼带笑意色白花青的锦鲤跃然於碗底
临摹宋体落款时却惦记著你
你隐藏在窑烧里千年的秘密
极细腻犹如绣花针落地
帘外芭蕉惹骤雨门环惹铜绿
而我路过那江南小镇惹了你
在泼墨山水画里你从墨色深处被隐去天青色等烟雨而我在等你
炊烟袅袅升起隔江千万里
在瓶底书汉隶仿前朝的飘逸
就当我为遇见你伏笔天青色等烟雨而我在等你
月色被打捞起晕开了结局
如传世的青花瓷自顾自美丽你眼带笑意

This is by the way the album cover with his writing 我很忙. Like his writing, although the 很 is a bit bizarre to me.
[…] 发如雪 (fā rú xuě) means “hair like snow” and reminds me a bit of his new song 青花瓷. Hm, it’s a bit hard to imagine for me how black hair can be like snow… but well, the […]
