Although Taylor only had two days to practice pronunciation, the difficulty of singing the chorus was still very low, enough to ensure that her pronunciation was accurate enough.
In addition, there is an extra coolness about women playing guitar, so Liu Qingshan knew that this song was a hit before the song was over.
And it is different from the recognition brought by the visual and auditory artistic enjoyment of the previous song "Little Apple". It is an explosive difference between two opposing and higher-minded intentions.
This kind of integration and perception with the song is not only obtained by Xu Wei, who has gone through many vicissitudes of life and then smiles at them, with his own kind and rich life course, but it is also the surprise and unexpectedness brought by a foreigner like Taylor with his proficient Chinese pronunciation. Extra blessing.
There is no doubt that the depth and meaning of this song is unparalleled!
Because of how it brings the poetry of distant thoughts back to the present, how it transforms life from a rushing stream into a broad and peaceful river, and enters the listener's body and mind in the form of music.
The whole life behind their songs is an extremely precious and rare inspiration on this road.
The magic of this song is that no matter how much MSG is sprinkled on it or how shoddy it is cooked, through Xu Wei, the Buddha who is becoming more and more filled with calmness, When the old monk talks about sex, he can bring him back to life, making people willingly enjoy it.
Although Taylor's harmony only plays an embellishment role in it, it is also obvious that her addition gives this song a greater pop space.
It can be regarded as giving the listener an unexpected opportunity. Combined with the warmth and touch of Xu Wei himself who has accompanied him through singing over the years, this is the reason why Liu Qingshan insists that this song will be a big hit.
Then Xu Wei and his band left the stage, while Taylor stayed on the stage and sang her most famous song "Love Story" by Chinese people.
This song is the title song of her second album and the first promotional song released in mainland China.
With the quality of it winning the Academy of Country Music Award for Best Music Video of the Year and the Billboard Pop Music Award for Best Country Song of the Year, it is no surprise that it is well known here.
Of course, it also has the influence of Liu Qingshan’s lyrics and composition.
This mid-tempo ballad, accompanied by banjo and guitar, has lyrics that mention palaces, princes, and princesses, telling a love story similar to Romeo and Juliet.
The arrangement is an almost perfect combination of traditional country music and rock music, making the whole song fresh in style and very suitable for listening to when adjusting your mood.
The relatively simple melody has only four chords, but it perfectly combines the narrative style of country music with rock music.
Using the development of the story and adding appropriate emotional rendering, it makes the audience resonate, and at the same time creates a new form of pop music.
The previous narrative music first appeared in the classical period, when composers used pure music to record what happened around them or to themselves.
Now, times have changed. In addition to pure music, many things need to be expressed in words, which will make it clearer.
The appearance of this song cannot be said to be groundbreaking, but at least it is the most famous song, so it is no exaggeration to summarize it as creating a new form of pop music.
Moreover, this argument comes from music critics in the European and American English context. It belongs to the mainstream music voice around the world and cannot be questioned.
Taylor's voice itself is also very distinctive, especially her control of dynamics. It is heavy but not heavy, light but not floating. Any more or less will reduce the expressiveness of the music.
This strength is just right, coupled with the ukulele tone of the intro, her personal music style started with this song.
The most surprising thing was that even though it was an English song, the audience's chorus rang out when she sang, which especially made Taylor happy.
Her replacement on stage was Jin Xishan, who once again wowed the audience with her famous song "Bubble".
How is the effect of such a performance?
What if the live audience and the TV station participating in the recording were not only elated but also shocked?
Such an effect is equivalent to all the songs in an album having the quality of the title song. Looking at the Chinese music scene, who can achieve such a terrifying live effect?
What cannot be ignored is that tonight’s performance is just a street performance. It does not have the corresponding configuration of a large concert, nor any on-site sound modification methods.
Such a simple singing situation can actually produce CD sound effects in a recording studio. This can only be explained by the actors' genuine personal abilities.
In fact, what shocked people the most was the amateur singers at the scene. Only today can we truly see their absolute strength.
In the same performance environment, people can perform the perfect music effect just like in the recording studio, so it is not without reason that these people have become famous.
Next up is the appearance of the Punk Brothers, who together with Jin Xishan will perform the English electronic music song "vtory" "composed" by Liu Qingshan.
After the first few simple-sounding piano melodies, strong electronic drum beats and orchestral music suddenly sounded.
I took it out now because after the recording of this program was completed, the concert outside the Forbidden City in Kyoto was about to take place.
This electronic music divine song will be performed live by the National Symphony Orchestra at this traditional Chinese music ceremony, and it is the Punk Brothers who are responsible for the electronic music part.
The female vocals were performed by Jin Xishan. Now the live performance is purely electronic music, which can be regarded as a warm-up for the traditional Chinese music ceremony in advance.
The heroic and exciting scene presented in this live performance, which is like pure music, allows the audience to have a magnificent picture in their mind even with their eyes closed.
Although it lacks the grandeur of a symphony, the high-burning BGM-like melody and rhythm can also render a different high-level battle style effect, which will instantly make people feel the grand momentum of war and the passionate spirit of warriors, making their blood flow. boiling.
In addition, the difficult singing effect of Jin Xishan's female voice in the climax will make the audience immediately have the urge to pick up weapons and rush to the battlefield to save the world.
Moreover, Jin Xishan's performance with only one word "ah" in the whole process shocked everyone. The ultimate dolphin sound was so frightening that the scalp was numb, and the shivers all over the body were so irritating that people kept shivering.
This live feeling is so shocking, and there is almost no doubt that it is called the most difficult song to sing in the world.
Such a world-class divine song
The quality of music actually appeared in such a street performance, which is already shocking.
Moreover, Jin Xishan's queen-like singing was so penetrating that everyone immediately stood on the spot, their mouths wide open in shock and never closed for a long time.
Many people were so shocked that their whole bodies trembled, and they felt an electric shock, numbing all the cells in their bodies over and over again, from numbness in their heels to a trembling sensation on the top of their heads, leaving everyone in a state of temporary aphasia.
Such a majestic and shocking melody full of male hormones and heroic spirit made everyone's hair almost explode.
The impact is extremely strong, the aggressive melody progresses layer by layer, and the grand, epic, and iron-blooded style appears.
[In view of the general environment,
At a certain point, a female voice chanted from Jin Xishan's mouth, which seemed to be like a sword-killing aura. It gradually reached a high level of shock with passion, directly penetrating into the deepest part of everyone's soul.
All the negative emotions were swept away at this moment, and his blood boiled as if he were witnessing a grand scene of defending his country.
The audience's thoughts at this moment are only thinking about the blaring horn of charge and moving forward without hesitation, even if countless people around them are falling.
It is more like a majestic and tragic farewell melody with the most picturesque feel.
close your eyes,
What is presented in front of you is a heroic scene from a high peak, overlooking the battle between the two armies, with war drums beating in unison, and the soldiers charging into battle, determined to win the battle to the death.
Especially in the singing part of Jin Xishan, the most soul-stirring part penetrates everyone's soul, making oneself tremble with shock.
The whole song is very long, lasting seven or eight minutes. After the music is finished, the dull expression on everyone's face still remains.
The domineering power of The Return of the King, the use of modern techniques in the classics, and the soul-stirring masterpiece are now presented to the world.
Pure music has greater adaptability than ordinary songs. That is, when listening to a piece of pure music, the emotions you hear are different depending on your mood.
Vtory is victory, it can give people a sense of sensory pictures, which is intended to reduce the initial reaction of Chinese people to the meaning of the word, and then step down to truly feel the auditory shock brought by this pure music!
Giving this type of music a foreign name is far more noble than the Chinese meaning of "victory".
The main target market of this song "Vtory" is still Hollywood. If it is replaced by the Chinese version of "Victory", its influence will be greatly reduced, so Liu Qingshan's version will continue the original English title.
The quality and significance of "Vtory" have a value far beyond pop music.
What everyone still doesn’t know is that the current effect is only 30% as good as playing with a real orchestra, but with the current version, you can already roughly hear the grandeur of the music.
After the performance of the song was completed, everyone was completely immersed in a hysterical emotional vent. The musicians were so shocked that their faces were distorted to the point where their facial features were deformed.
Jin Xishan quietly left the scene in such an atmosphere. She knew that the main contribution to this effect lay in the more comprehensive cooperation of the Punk Brothers.
At this point, she was just being polite and should have quietly withdrawn to highlight the main role of the Punk Brothers.
