I can agree the song isn’t something I could jam to on the daily, but I could definitely listen to it while watching the MV. AMAZING effects and scenes was honestly one of the coolest videos I’ve seen in a while. Also been meaning to say it but the new intro is really nice, props to whoever made that one. Thank you for uploading xx can’t wait to see more!
There’s a lot of deep meaning to this mv and song! In the MV Lay is playing XiangYu! A general who won lots of battles and then committed suicide. Yes it’s based off of true Chinese history! He is applying his music and experiences with Xiang Yu’s story! A lot goes in this mv and there’s more info about it online! Ugh too much explaining! This Mv cost $1.4 million usd and took about 6 months to make! The palace in the background is the Qin palace! It’s in Hengdian world studios I believe and it is the largest filming location in the world! Many Chinese dramas and movies are filmed here! If anyone has watched princess weiyoung u will know that u have recognized the background from just watching the teaser lol. My mom is chinese and when I showed her the MV it was hard for her to understand the Chinese in the beginning! China has many dialects in each province and county!! Even Lay’s Changsha dialect is hard for me to understand! Loool
the Chinese at the begging is the Ancient Chinese Poetry called" Gai Xia ge",composed by the ancient General "Xiang Yu".And Lay uses Peking Opera to show the poetry.No wonder its hard for your mom to understand it ⸜(* ॑꒳ ॑* )⸝
"The MV is the portrayal of a Chinese General's entrapment by the Han soldiers while trying to rescue his wife.The General named Xiang Yu(项羽), who fought in the battle of Gaixia. The voice in the 1st 1min of the MV is actually the voice of a Peking Opera artist singing."The song of Gaixia" (垓下歌)which the General composed for her wife Lady Yu(虞姬) who later took her own life." (she dont want XiangYu to be threatened because of her) After Lady Yu(虞姬) dead, Xiang Yu knew all the efforts he done were meaningless. At that moment ,facing thousands of armies and horses,he recalled his lifetime and said a few words.Thats why we can see "The song of Gaixia" and get together to talk about Lay's Lit today(｡･ω･｡)ﾉ♡ and heres the poetry(in Chinese) 垓下歌 项羽 力拔山兮气盖世， 时不利兮骓不逝。 骓不逝兮可奈何， 虞兮虞兮奈若何。
btw, Xiang Yu also took his own life after composed such poetry,(not too long after Lady Yu dead).and thats the true story of " Overload of Western Chu ". Chinese people usually call 乌江自刎 or 霸王别姬
Thank you so much for this reaction, this mv is masterpiece. And Lay almost did almost everything for this mv as you can see from the after credits, he spent 1,4 millions dollars on this. The album has been sold for 2 millions copies in 24 hours, in Weibo this mv has got 43 millions views now
Lit=Lotus蓮Chinese pronunciation：Lian（double meanings）This word combines Chinese and English puns. Like the black and red logo：L蓮T In Chinese culture or Buddhism, burning lotus flowers means nirvana.What makes the lotus great, and different, is that it grows in the mud of the lake, but its petals have one great characteristic! Just like flowers have their own dustproof function, there is an old Saying in China that goes “Lotus does not fear the strong sunshine and keeps clean even in dirty mud.” And he is a very, very kind and simple boy, which makes the bad fans uncomfortable, because this world, they no longer believe that a person can be like him, in vanity fair can still remain simple and clean, so he was vilified for many years. He couldn't stand it anymore, so he wrote the song.
I’ve been waiting for his new album LIT to came out since he mentioned it and giving out teasers along with concept photos. It’s finally here OMG someone pinch me? I’m upsettingly rusty on Chinese history because it looks like he clipped out last half of a movie then breaks into singing/rapping. There’s so much but I don’t where to start since I still can’t get over how darn hardcore LIT our boy is being with a DRAGON and KILLER VISUALS no less 👀🔥while trying to expand China to the world through music even though local fans and anti fans don’t want that to happen 🙄 So in MV he is fighting against the ones (JADE) trying to keep the changes from happening. FUN FACT: he also plays the male & female roles. I’ll have review some more to fully understanding it but IN MY OPINION I think the song itself speaking for today’s generation about being done with the political issues, hatred, discrimination between countries and wants it to end because its a new start of a dacade; things need to change if their country along with the world is ever going to strive forward and he wants to be the first to break through that wall. #TakingChinaToTheWorld #LayZhangLIT
the flower of Lotus in China means purity, being noble, as it grows from the dirty dusted water but with nice scent and pure white color. In history, many noble people use lotus to represent themselves.
这首歌完全表达了中华文化的自信。莲花是光明和纯洁的，黑龙是代表黑暗和邪恶的。这首歌感觉在隐喻当今中西文化冲突的象征。光明和邪恶的战争永在继续。英语翻译自谷歌。This song fully expresses the confidence of Chinese culture. The lotus is bright and pure, and the black dragon represents darkness and evil. This song feels like a metaphor for the current cultural conflict between China and the West. The war between light and evil continues forever. English translation from Google.
*YESSSSSSS* did y'all see my comment, ik assuming you did that's why you're reacting to *"Lit"* 🔥🔥🔥🔥 I'm not trying to compare but it gives me *"Daechwita"* by *Agust D* aka *Suga from BTS* and *100 Ways"* by *Jackson Wang* from *GOT7* The krumping tho, I made *stank faces* when he was doing them 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
It’s definitely not like the other LIT songs that we’ve heard from other artists and it’s more like a ending to a movie ... i’m sure you know this is NOT Kpop, it is Cpop/Mpop!
Please check out other amazing MVs by LAY if you are interested. NAMANANA: ua-cam.com/video/DlUsnZjfYZA/v-deo.html SHEEP: ua-cam.com/video/-qSzP9aReOA/v-deo.html He is underrated for the talent and effort that he put into music.
Hello you are fine I saw the reaction of all the songs from different countries. I suggest you listen to Iranian songs ... They are the best songs in the world in every way .... For example, let me give you a few examples: 1)Yas (mosafer), (sarkob), (sefareshi) 2)amir tatloo (afee), (ghiriviri), (ajab) 3)mohsen yegane (be man gol midi), (doset darm) 4)arash (tekon bde) 5)sasy (Doctor), ( ghentelman) 6)hosein ablis 7) zedbazi (yakh) ( bache mahale haye shahr) And....

Lit means a Lotus in Chinese, hence the lotus imagery
plus he spent 1.4 Million USD on this MV, it's shot in the biggest movie studio on Earth !
I understand why the ending credits are so long. Two of the best video production companies in Korea participated. Crazy.
