Introduction of Yunnan Mountain Songs

Traditional Yunnan mountain songs are relatively pure and simple, with the desire for a better life, existed in all parts of Yunnan among the ethnic minorities, the content of the songs reflects the daily production and labor of the ethnic minorities, and the primitive expression of the concept of marriage and love. For example, we are familiar with the "Wedding Vow", "Embroidered Lotus Bags", "Ten Big Sisters" and other excellent works. However, with the development of the standard of living in the countryside, especially with the popularization of media players such as VCDs, radios, etc., a group of young people from the countryside in heavy make-up have boldly innovated the traditional songs, using dynamic accompaniment and exaggerated lyrics to create works of mountain songs, such as the "Old Driver Take Me With You", etc., and alarmed the majority of the people. These songs are characterized by boldness, passion and liveliness, but some of the lyrics are rather "evil", but they also fully reflect the innocence of the local folk culture. Yunnan mountain song is different from Yunnan mountain opera, Yunnan mountain song is a whole song, while Yunnan mountain opera is the plot of the song.
