Singer Tuan Hung recently shared his experience when he first heard and performed famous songs such as "Mother Loves Child", "Chiec Khan Pieu", "Nhung Ke Mong Mo"... in the program "Call Me by Fire".
Accordingly, the male singer said that most of the songs he participated in the program were songs that he had never heard or sung before. This made the recording process more difficult.
In particular, when performing "I love you, Mom", Tuan Hung, along with other artists such as Bang Kieu and Soobin Hoang Son, created an emotional performance.
The song's arrangement by music director SlimV enhanced the emotions of each singer, making the performance impressive and warmly received by the audience.
Tuan Hung also admitted that this was the first time he participated in duets and group singing, which brought him new and interesting experiences.
When participating in "Call Me by Fire", Tuan Hung not only learned many things but also had to lower his ego to integrate with the group.
He felt that everything had changed for the better: "Everything has changed in a strangely positive way."
His short post-show sharing surprised many people, because "Mother loves child" and "Chiec khan Pieu" are two of the classic songs of Vietnamese music.
The fact that Tuan Hung - a famous singer who has been a judge in many music competitions - shared that he had never heard these songs surprised many people.
The song "I love you" was composed by musician Nguyen Van Ty in 1956, in the joy of welcoming the birth of his little daughter.
The song was born in the context of the country going through post-war difficulties, when maternal love and the desire for peace became the main themes in music.
"I love you, Mom" is not simply a song about motherly love, but is also considered an epic about maternal love, blended with love for homeland and country.
The song quickly became an indispensable part of Vietnamese cultural life during a special historical period.
Over the generations, this song has been performed by many artists, but the most famous is the version by People's Artist Thanh Huyen, considered the first and most influential recording.
Other artists also performed this song successfully such as People's Artist Thu Hien, the late People's Artist Le Dung, singers Anh Tho, Pham Thu Ha, People's Artist Thanh Lam...
As for "Chiec Khan Pieu", this is a famous song by musician Doan Nho, composed in 1956, based on the folk melody of the Northwest people "Tang A Tim".
The song was born in the context of a country that had just experienced war and was on the way to peace, carrying with it the desire for love and a new life.
The Pieu scarf, a cultural symbol of the Thai people, is not only an ornament but also a bridge of affection between couples.
Many famous singers of the previous generation have successfully performed this song, including Meritorious Artist Tran Chat, Meritorious Artist Kieu Hung...
However, Tung Duong's version in 2012 revived the song with a fresh arrangement, helping it continue to conquer the hearts of modern audiences.
Other young singers such as Duong Hoang Yen, Quang Anh (RHYDER)... or the parody song performed by People's Artist Tu Long in Tao Quan 2013 (Meeting at the end of the year) helped bring the song closer to the public.
