人民网北京8月20日电 (记者赵纲)今晚,北京首届世界武博运动会主题歌《天行健》在北京录制。该歌曲应首届世界武博会组委会之邀,由著名词作家王平久作词,著名音乐人冯晓泉作曲并担当制作。这首充满力量与气势的歌曲将于8月28日在武博会开幕式上由功夫巨星成龙唱响。

  成龙在录制现场表示,非常喜欢《天行健》这首歌,也对中国武术能够早日成为奥运会比赛项目充满期待,“中国武术有很多门派,如果我们统一为中国武术的话,让外国人有一个统一的认识,我们的武术可能就会早一天走进奥运会。”当被问到自己擅长的武术项目时,成龙说:“练刀、枪、棍和拐子都还可以,然后就是拳脚工夫,日常主要是通过跑步来健身。”成龙还表示,希望在武博会的活动中能与另一位功夫巨星李连杰进行交流。

  成龙身为功夫巨星,与武术有很深的渊源。当初武博会组委会考虑主题歌演唱者时,想到的唯一合适人选就是成龙。但当时由于成龙在赶拍一部自导自演的新片《十二生肖》,八地取景行程很紧,在考虑了一个多月后还是婉言谢绝了武博会的邀请。后来从好友王平久处得知了本届武博会对于国家的重大意义之后,成龙毅然承担了每天200万元的损失,参与到武博会主题曲的录制及开幕式的表演工作中来。这次在北京举办的首届世界武博运动会,除了是2008年北京奥运会之后举办的水平最高的国际体育赛事之外,还承担了我国武术“申奥”的重任,能否让中国武术成为奥运会正式比赛项目,武博会的成功举办意义重大,这是让世界看到中国武术规范化和国际化的一次大好机会。

  武博会开闭幕式总导演马戎透露,8月28日的开幕式晚会将以“天行健”作为主题贯穿始终,而《天行健》这首歌则是整场晚会最重要的一笔。马戎导演称赞这首歌体现了中国传统文化与现代审美的完美融合,古今中外文化与理念的碰撞与交融,用古代励志名句作歌名,与本届武博会“以武会友,以搏励志”的主题高度契合,既充分展示了中国元素,又传达了世界性的武博精神。歌词中的一句英文“We were born to combat”(我们为武博而生)则是对世界各国所有参赛选手的致敬。

  当晚成龙在录制完成《天行健》之后,又紧急赶制了一首由王平久作词,常石磊作曲的献给舟曲泥石流受灾群众的歌曲《风雨同舟》。成龙表示,一定要借此歌表达对舟曲人民乃至全国人民的关怀与爱。
