Liang Wern Fook (梁文福): the Singing Academic by Kong, Kam

ARTICLE Liang Wern Fook (梁文福): The Singing Academic by Kong, Kam Yoke , written on 20th August, 2010 National Library Board, Singapore

Dr Liang Wern Fook, “the bridge linking literature and music”, shares with us the inspirations and influences behind his songwriting.

Singapore theatre doyen, the late Kuo Pao Kun, once referred to academic, songwriter, and published poet and prose writer Dr Liang Wern Fook as “the bridge linking literature and music.”

Indeed, Liang’s compositions have a distinct personality and style that distinguished him from the rest of the xinyao ( 新谣，Singapore Chinese ballads) songwriters. His works throughout the periods included his personal reflections of social and political issues, his concerns regarding local culture, his critiques of social phenomenon, as well as the love he has for his country. His compositions expanded the scope and richness of the xinyao repertoire, which otherwise included mainly songs expressing youthful emotions like friendship and love.

Ah Ben Ah Ben ( 《阿 Ben 阿 Ben 》), Door ( 《门》), Where Is Our Song ( 《我们的歌在哪里》), One Step At a Time ( 《一步一步来》), Some People and Most People ( 《有些人和很多人》), Before the History Exams ( 《历史考试前夕》), Too Much Too Much ( 《太多太多》), The Three Daughters of Mr Zhang ( 《老张的三个女儿》), etc. showed glimpses of the pressures brought on by a rapidly developing society that also resulted in changing values and loss of moral direction. When confronted with these circumstances, many people felt a sense of helplessness. Liang’s works went a step further than most of the typical xinyao songs. His songs included commentaries, criticisms and reflections on those issues, helping his generation construct its own identity.

Former DJ Zhang Mei Xiang ( 张美香) said, “One can only get a sense of the cultural essence of Singapore from Wern Fook’s songs. One cannot really tell where the songwriter is from just by looking at some of the other local songs, but Wern Fook captured the essence of Singapore very well.”

In some of his other songs like Singapore Pie ( 《新加坡派》), The Sparrow with the Twig (《麻雀衔竹枝》), etc., “Singapore” is featured prominently and repeatedly in the lyrics, indicating an emerging national pride and attachment. Liang’s songs do not have the impassioned and rousing proclamations found in the National Day songs. Rather, they were full of nostalgia for the bygone days.

This sense of nostalgia, so prevalent in Liang’s songs, has something to do with his initial encounters with music.

“Quite a number of my songs from the xinyao period showed the influence of the songs I was listening to or singing as a child. For example, The Sparrow with the Twig was borrowed from a

ARTICLE Cantonese children’s folk rhyme which my father would hum as he carried me in his arms when I was young,” Liang recalled.

“Old Clothes are Better than New Ones ( 《新衣哪有旧衣好》) shows influences from another children’s song Cotton Clothes ( 《棉衣》). The former is a song most people would have sung as a child. For me, it held a special significance because of my mother. I had volunteered to participate in a singing contest in kindergarten. This was the song I had chosen to sing. My mom explained the song to me and practised with me. But I almost backed out at the last minute out of stage fright. My mother told me that what was important was not about winning but rather about seeing through something we started. She said she would watch me perform as a form of encouragement. I eventually went on stage. The incident left an indelible impression on me. It was quite natural for me to include these memories in my songs.”

Other lessons in life were also connected to his memories of music. Inspired by his young neighbour’s piano-playing, 10-year-old Liang had requested for piano lessons as well. His mother explained that, since the family was not well-off, it was a major decision to buy a piano and engage a teacher for him. So he would have to put in an effort and see it through. “Since it was something I had asked for, I really treasured the opportunity,” Liang said.

Growing up in a household which loved to sing also imbued in him the simple and pure joy that music could bring, “My father, a former journalist with the Chinese press, was a member of the Singapore Press Holdings Choir for many years. As a child, I remembered hearing my parents sing all kinds of songs, from folk songs to English and Chinese oldies. I naturally provided the accompaniment after I learnt how to play the piano. So aside from formal lessons where I played mainly classical music, these family sing-alongs also brought me joy as well as allowed me to fiddle around with the chords of other songs. I would also try to figure out the chords of the pop songs I listened to as a teenager.”

One day, in 1980, Liang, who was in secondary four then, was not in the mood for his usual piano practice after being defeated in an interschool debate. He started tinkling on the piano. Before long, he came up with the melody for his first song, A Song For You ( 《写一首歌给你》).

He feels the song aptly expresses his philosophy on music, “I never saw xinyao as merely a kind of performance. For me, I had found a medium to express myself and my beliefs using writing and music. The ‘you’ in A Song For You refers to no one in particular. It could be an alter ego, someone who happens to hear your song, or someone in the mind of the songwriter. Or the song could simply refer to someone who wants to express himself and finally finding a way to do so, through a song, using music as a means of communication.”

As such, one could often find the viewpoint of the songwriter in Liang’s songs. Take one of his personal favourites, Give You Some, Don’t Give You Some ( 《给你一些不给你一些》), which was written for Taiwanese singer Terry Lin Chih Hsuan ( 林志炫). The song, with a road-trip kind of melody, was written on a bus-trip overseas after hearing his friend’s laments about his life.

ARTICLE “The lyrics express my personal beliefs in life – that is, to treasure what I already have, using whatever I have to create the life I want. But generally, we find that many people would have chosen to complain about what they don’t have and pine for what they wish they could have. These people would end up with even more regrets.”

Dr Eugene Dairianathan from the Visual and Performing Arts Department, National Institute of Education, Nanyang Technological University, said, “Wern Fook found music to communicate his own voice; and I don’t mean just his vocal chords. The language that he spoke, the words which came from his soul found its way through music.”

After the release of his fifth and last album in 1992, Liang made a personal decision to focus his energies on academia, working first on his masters and later doctorate thesis. He stepped away from the limelight and started penning songs for other singers, both local and overseas. It was around this time that local talents like Kit Chan started emerging on the regional music scene and making an impact with locally written songs and locally produced albums. Liang, for instance, wrote one of Kit Chan’s earliest and biggest hits of all time, Worried ( 《担心》).

Even as a writer of pop songs, mostly ballads, many in the music industry felt that Liang’s works are distinctly different. The writing style is poetic, the melody never over-dramatic, and the songs are filled with an artistic ambience. Some of the songs also sport a narrative style reminiscent of Liang’s works from the xinyao days. Examples include Watching Television (《看电视》), a station ditty written for Mediacorp Singapore and She Came to My Concert (《她来听我的演唱会》), widely considered as singer Jacky Cheung’s breakthrough song.

In 1996, Liang wrote the script and co-created the music with singer-songwriter Jimmy Ye ( 叶良俊) for December Rains ( 《雨季》), the first Mandarin musical written in Singapore. The sold- out show was restaged in 2010 with a brand new cast. After a sold-out run in 2007, If There’re Seasons ( 《天冷就回来》), another Mandarin musical, written by award-winning Hong Kong playwright Raymond To ( 杜国威), was again staged to full-houses in 2009. To was inspired by the popular songs of Liang. More than 30 of Liang’s works were used to form the backbone of the story.

Local singer Kit Chan, who starred in the restaging of December Rains , finds Liang’s love songs “refreshing”. She said his songs are often about love which is sincere and pure, and without pretence or motives, “the kind of love we all wish we could have”. She felt that his observations of life are accurate, sharp and introspective, not trendy, vague or superficial.

Liang acknowledged that he is perhaps very different from pure musicians who think in terms of music in their compositional work, “When I’m thinking about the melody and lyrics of a song, I probably already have an idea of the theme and usually there would be some cultural vision behind.”

He reckons that although there is a pattern to creative work, personal style is a result of the individual’s experience, grasp of technique, and gestation process. Very often, he/she must also be in an agreeable mood, which is not within the individual’s control.

ARTICLE Songs, books, movies, drama serials, and even academic journals provide him with inspiration to write. He has reached a stage in his creative skills where a couple of lines overheard on the radio could inspire a melody or a scene from a drama series he happened to catch a glimpse of would provide him with fodder to write a song.

“A writer does not have to finish drinking a whole glass of water before he can describe the taste. No doubt accumulating source material is important, but at the same time, I think it’s also crucial to be able to organise the stuff and make free associations to support your creative mood.”

“Cross referencing other art forms or sources could open up new windows of opportunity and stimulate the thinking process. For me, writing songs for specific pop music singers has also ‘forcefully’ uncovered new creative potential within me.”

Liang considers himself very lucky as he possesses the dual personality of a man of letters, who is almost always contemplative and introspective, as well as that of a musician, who has to be more collaborative by nature as he has to communicate with singers on their interpretation of the song or when he is working on a musical - he has to liaise with many different departments. So in a way, his music work has allowed him to achieve a kind of psychological balance.

To help remedy the dearth of good lyric writers in Singapore, Liang is currently conducting a course on creative writing in Chinese pop lyrics at the Confucius Institute, Nanyang Technological University.

Liang said, “The standard of Chinese has suffered over the years. The Singapore linguistic environment is not conducive to writing in Chinese. Making music with the help of computers is easy for the younger generation. But there is no such machine to help with the creation of lyrics. Crash courses won’t work either. This is at least the first step to inculcate the basics in the writing of lyrics.”

Confucius, the Chinese thinker and philosopher, who sang almost every day, expressing his emotions through music, and who had composed melodies to go along with at least 305 poems in the Book of Songs ( 《诗经》), would certainly have approved.

Quote

“Creative work is not only about expressing one’s feelings, or about getting rich and famous in the process or having the chance of making many friends. Rather, you have this special ability of creating something out of nothing, of creating another space within a virtual space. It could be out of a great sense of mission, or it could carry important messages within. For me, it’s also a means of expressing my individuality, my views on life, my stand on issues, and my personal choices in life. Creative work gives me this space.”
