There may be an update at 11pm
…………
August 1st.
One day of every month is a very important day for the Blue Star music scene.
The teachers at the Conservatory of Music are preparing to find this month’s topic from the new songs. Newcomers who have just entered the music scene are eagerly looking forward to their debut, and countless past stars are looking forward to becoming famous...
Just before twelve o'clock on the same day, superstar Xia Lingling suddenly posted a post, which instantly attracted tens of millions of views.
"The latest masterpiece by Teacher Kong Fang, the author of "wAKAwAKA"!"
""Need You Now" will be released on time at midnight!"
"Wow." A young man excitedly pushed up his glasses at the Berklee College of Music in Cité de la Seine, one of the world's three major music academies.
This is the Berklee College of Music, Xia Lingling fan group!
The influence of a superstar cannot be compared to that of the King of Heaven and the Queen of Heaven. It is a symbol of a state or even an era!
"Everyone! Are you ready?"
The young man turned his head. In the huge room, more than a dozen young people had their hands on the firework ropes. He nodded excitedly.
"After "wAKAwAKA", Xia Lingling has no news about new songs!"
"Let's have a concert tour at least!"
"This is her first announcement in two months! We must fully support her!"
"Although the name Kong Fang is a bit unfamiliar, "wAKAwAKA" is worthy of our vote!"
Time passes minute by minute, and soon, zero o'clock is approaching.
Other music in the room was muted, and the top-notch speakers were rarely idle. When midnight arrived, they immediately clicked on the super music chart!
“Need You Now…Need You Now…Where is Need You Now?”
The young man searched for five minutes, and everyone was stunned.
No!
"Isn't it possible?" he murmured.
Although there are many stars on the super music charts, two superstars are releasing songs this month.
But the great Xia Lingling has just finished singing the World Cup theme song, and the new song is not on the rankings?
When a superstar releases a song, it should be at least in the top ten in the first half hour!
Not only him, but everyone around him was stunned.
A brown-haired boy spoke nervously: "Did you miss it? Read it again?"
The super music source chart only displays the top 50.
They immediately turned it over and read it again.
still none!
"Really not..." One fan's voice trembled a little. Xia Lingling's song... actually dropped to more than fifty places?
"Billboard Hot 100!" A girl suddenly screamed: "Hurry up and watch Billboard Hot 100!"
"Xia Lingling has been on Super Sound Source several times! But Kong Fang has never been on it!"
yes!
The young man suddenly realized that maybe it was just to cooperate with Kong Fang that he didn't go to Super Music this time?
For an Asia-Pacific creator, Billboard Hot 100 is exactly the area that suits their strengths.
This is not discrimination.
It’s that they’ve seen it too many times.
Over the past few decades, hundreds of Asia-Pacific music gods have crossed the Western mainland.
But everyone came with high praises and returned disappointed.
No one has entered the super music chart!
But thinking of this, he felt a sense of regret in his heart - he believed that his friends felt the same.
The quality of this song is probably not that good.
Otherwise, Xia Lingling will definitely put up a super music source instead of being satisfied with just being on the Billboard Hot 100.
But no one said this.
The boy quickly opened Billboard Hot 100, but after reading it again, he almost couldn't believe his eyes!
No!
still none!
"Wang Defa?" He couldn't help but ask, dragging the wheel with his fingers.
Look once along the way and once backward.
Billboard Hot 100 still includes the top 50, but...it really doesn't have any!
"No way..." A black-haired Asian fan finally couldn't hold it in any longer and murmured: "It can't be... it's on the Billboard chart, right?"
This sentence was like a magic spell, and the whole place was silent.
There is also a chain of contempt among fans.
There's no question that Billboard is at the bottom of the heap.
None of them dared to imagine Xia Lingling's name appearing on the Billboard charts!
In the silence, someone finally pressed the bulletin board option.
Suddenly, a song was filtered out, and new stars that I had never heard of appeared in my eyes.
However, the first name made their eyes widen!
Need You Now.
46.31 million downloads.
"omG..." The girl pursed her lips and said in disbelief: "It's really on the bulletin board..."
More than 40 million downloads, which is very impressive.
But Ms. Xia Lingling, she’s downgraded!
How can you publish on such a list!
At this moment, a young man who had been silent until now said, "This is not Xia Lingling's song!"
Everyone looked over and saw that it was true!
"Author: Kong Fang, singer: Changqi Group?"
Never heard of it at all!
"It seems that Xia Lingling is still a favor." After a while, a fan sighed: "Teacher Kong Fang helped her write "wAKAwAKA", and now she has posted a new song even if it was not sung by her."
So, what are the expectations for this song?
After a few seconds of silence, someone finally said, "Let's listen to it. After all, it's a song recommended by Xia Lingling."
"What if it's really good?"
Someone shrugged.
It’s really good. I’ll see you on the super music chart.
How could it be here?
But no one refuted, and the leading boy pressed the play button.
A brisk electric guitar sounded, and there was a faint sound of drums, with a strong pop style.
Very personal, but not annoying.
Hearing this simple but not simple beginning, everyone's brows relaxed slightly.
"As expected of the author of the World Cup theme song... This is also a Samsung music god, right? The beginning is great."
You know, the reason why they formed a small group is because they have a common identity.
Berklee College of Music students!
For a musical touch, they are top notch!
A young man with middle-parted hair and glasses had bright eyes. He murmured: "I listen to so much pop music every day. Poor pop music note arrangement gives people a sense of disorganization, or they are desperately pursuing the 'golden melody', piecing it together without knowing what it means."
But this song...
The road to simplicity, return to nature.
It sounds very pleasant to listen to at the beginning. There is no deliberate pursuit of anything, but it naturally forms a unified and harmonious painting style.
Kind of interesting...
"Picture perfect...the floor."
When the first sentence came out, everyone's eyes lit up. They exchanged glances subconsciously.
"Long sentence?"
A black fan wearing a basketball uniform and dreadlocks said something complicated.
Because of the Western Continent language, they do not have such refined vocabulary. Therefore, the lyrics are divided into long and short sentences.
General short sentences, lyrics with clear meaning. Grounded.
But not much beauty.
Long sentences are different.
Long sentences in Xilu languages are mostly used for rhetoric and beautification. Use long sentences as lyrics, either to beautify or to start a story or narrative.
Whichever it is, it means one thing.
This creator has a perfect grasp of the rhymes and tones of the Western Continent language!
"It seems...different from previous authors."
Before he finished speaking, after a simple two-part repetition, the song began to sing, transforming into a new movement in an extremely smooth way.
"Reaching for the phone cause, I can't fight it any more."
"Oh...FUcK!"
One music fan couldn't help but ask: "Is he describing the feeling of falling out of love in a light way?"
The lyrics are heavy.
But the composition is brisk!
This is a contradictory writing method that requires a very advanced level of mastery of both lyrics and music!
The advantage of writing like this is that just like them now, they can hear a kind of complicated feelings: they are clearly broken in love, but they have recovered their mood and let the lover only exist in memories.
This is much better than the simple pain of lovesickness!
Any emotion has multiple aspects and elements, and the richer it is, the more attractive it will be.
This song, through the shortened 2+2 form at the front and the changes in the music, was done with ease!
"This is not the level that should appear on a bulletin board!"
The dreadlock took a deep breath: "The important thing is not the way of writing, but the ease of doing so! Well...silky...yes! Silky!"
"He used a two-part repetition at the beginning, a 2+2 writing method. It has one more change than ordinary love songs, but it is as smooth as chocolate..."
"Shut up!"
Before he finished speaking, several people spoke up together.
At this moment, the emotions that had accumulated before burst out like a flood!
"It's a quarter after one, I'm all alone and I need you now."
"Said I wouldn't call but I lost all control and I need you now."
Everyone in the room was silent.
Astonishing!
If I was amazed by the lyrics and music at the beginning, my admiration for the author outweighed the music itself.
But when the chorus broke out, Norbu Dolma's voice was as clear as a spring, and its high-pitched voice reached into the sky, with a very recognizable drawl, which instantly stunned everyone's ears!
"And I don't know how I can do without, I just need you now." (It's not that I don't write lyrics, but European and American lyrics are really not beautiful, so I omitted them. You have to understand them, but they are needed at various times. You, when you have something to say, at a certain time, etc., the Chinese song is second-rate)
On Earth, the original singer of this song has a typical European and American accent.
It has high explosive power and a rich sound, but it doesn't have much distinctiveness - there are a lot of such sounds in Europe and the United States.
For example, the teeth cleaning girl, fruit girl, and even LAdYGAGA all belong to this style.
But at this moment.
At Blue Star.
Zhao Ziluo asked Norbu Dolma to weaken some Tibetan singing methods and pay more attention to popular singing methods. The collision of different cultures and the combination of disparate popular styles unexpectedly formed an illusion of... opening the gates of heaven with one sword!
The clear singing voice dissipates the haze of broken love, which coincides with the song's brisk way of describing love and sorrow!
No, it's not coincidental.
But a higher level!
Norbu Dolma's clear spring-like voice is like the crystal heart of a 17 or 18-year-old girl, sending chills down your spine to your head. But it doesn’t feel out of the ordinary!
After listening to Xi Lufeng's singing for a long time, this voice suddenly appeared, and everyone's hair stood on end!
New world!
Before they could think about it, Lin Dong's magnetic voice sounded: "Another shot of whiskey, can't stop looking at the door." (Well... carelessly, whiskey and the door, to be honest, only a handful of European and American songs can enjoy the lyrics. A few, but the composition and arrangement are really awesome)
Different... everyone's hair just fell down and their eyes narrowed again.
The first two verses expressed implicit emotions. The singer was singing with suppressed emotions, and they hadn't realized it yet.
But now they let go of their voices, and they all heard the difference in each other's voices.
Thick, but with a slight nasal sound.
It's really not special to say it's special.
But the only special thing about the other party is that it works perfectly with the female voice just now!
The voices of the two are like soul mates, nothing can be done without either half!
"Oh my god..." Dreadlocks looked deeply at the Billboard charts: "There must be a lot of people tonight, right?"
"This... the toddler swimming pool suddenly jumped into a big shark?"
