Chapter 467 Listen to the song well, the surprise is coming! (2+3/3, two in one chapter)
"There are so many people in this world,
How lucky I am to have us..."
This song has the magic of making people calm down and listen to it.
Especially when he saw Dai Yuni standing on the stage, singing in a relaxed manner accompanied by Yang Qian's piano playing, Cen Liangwei felt that he should also get rid of the messy thoughts in his head, and not even think about going back to the video he was going to make.
content, concentrate on enjoying the scene and the music.
How long has it been since you listened to music properly?
Cen Liangwei doesn't remember, but many times, he listens to music for work, not even watching TV for work. He can't help but think about how he will be evaluated if he makes a video.
"The morning and dusk in this long destiny,
It often makes me look into the distance and be lost in thought..." (Note 1)
In fact, he had already noticed these poetic lyrics when he stayed up late last night and listened to the song.
There is no need to be surprised, because in Shun Liangwei's view, this is Yang Qian's normal performance, and the colloquial lyrics of "A Little Tempting" are considered below the standard.
Shun Liangwei had already tasted the beauty of the lyrics yesterday, and now he didn't want to think about how exquisitely these lyrics were used.
On the contrary, after calming down, Cen Liangwei can experience the beauty of the poetry of the lyrics and the melodiousness of the melody being fused together by Dai Yuni's deep and soft voice at this moment!
This possibility really cannot be described with words!
Dai Yuni said that she is still very young at heart, but in fact, her voice, Cen Liangwei felt, allowed him to see the depth of time in the lyrics and the feeling of time passing by.
A touch of emotion, but also a relief that allows you to smile slightly...
This is the case for the time being, after all, emotions have to be progressive, and they cannot be sweet to the heart as soon as they come up. Only the hardships and hardships in the process can bring out the preciousness of this "How lucky I have us"!
"The gray leaves are drifting in the pond,
Watching the plane roar to a distant land,
The long corridor of time, footsteps shouting,
When the lights turn on, it’s deserted…”
This section of lyrics before the chorus was actually taken out and analyzed by Sam Liangwei when he was making a video last night. He even only said these four lines in this song.
I really like it!
In the words of Cen Liangwei, this passage vividly plays with the various feelings of the human body!
Color "grey"!
The "floating" movement!
The "boom" of the sound, the "sound of footsteps", the "shouting"!
The "airplane" of light and shadow, "light on"!
The "distance" and "emptiness" of space!
There are also changes in mood, all hidden between the lines.
It can even be said that a few short lines of lyrics are like watching a stream-of-consciousness short film, and the content in the picture is extremely rich!
Of course, there is no doubt that the chorus is great!
As the piano was played more powerfully, the emotions in Dai Yuni's singing were also brewing, and Cen Liangwei couldn't help but close his eyes.
"Flashing in the evening breeze, how many frames have passed by?
It spun while flying and disappeared?"
It's very much like listening to old records. Dai Yuni's voice is mellow and has a somewhat old-fashioned charm, but it's also extremely delicate and sultry.
The note here is very high, but it's rare that it doesn't just stretch the throat, nor can it be sung higher.
Dai Yuni handled it very well (taught by Yang Qian), switching between real and false notes with almost no trace, and she also sang with a lot of layers.
There are many details, such as "Is it gone?" Dai Yuni slightly delayed for half a beat after the word "了".
Few people will pay attention to this, but Shun Liangwei has a rich "singing experience" and he can hear some details of Dai Yuni's singing!
There is a difference between singing like this and singing smoothly!
People who don't listen carefully can also feel the confusion and sadness of not being able to find their lover from a broad perspective. This also gives the audience a clearer understanding of her emotional expression, and they can't help but feel a little more in their hearts.
The idea of sharing compassion and cherishing jade!
Of course, this is not to be cautious. In fact, it should be said that it is a relatively advanced singing method. Most singers do not have such strong pronunciation skills.
Cen Liangwei looked through the video of Dai Yuni and Yang Qian singing at the music festival. If he remembered correctly, Dai Yuni's singing skills were not so good a year ago, and her voice was far from the quality it is today.
It is most likely due to Yang Qian's guidance, but no matter what the reason is, Dai Yuni's rapid progress is obvious to everyone.
Even Cen Liangwei had an unrealistic idea.
That is, Dai Yuni will participate in "The Voice of Chinese" next year. Even if she doesn't win the championship, with her voice and singing skills, she might be able to get a higher ranking.
However, just think about this idea.
Regardless of Dai Yuni's wishes, with the special album she released this time, as well as her and Yang Qian's current fame and connections in the entertainment industry, there is no reason to risk being laughed at and not win the championship by participating in "
Good Chinese Voice".
No need!
Shun Liangwei doesn't think Dai Yuni will go to "The Voice of Chinese". At most, she will only win the same championship as Yang Qian. What can she prove? What does she need to prove?
…
"Coming forward in the distant light, your voice is clear,
There are so many people around me,
But the world is silent and silent..."
Over at the guest table, this song also infected many people.
However, it is precisely because of its high quality that several professionals here couldn't help but discuss it.
"For this chorus, Xiao Yang used the harmonic progression of 15634145? (Note 2)"
After all, Chen Maochun also writes songs. Although he hasn't had time to study Yang Qian's new album, he heard the clues as soon as he heard it at the scene.
"Yes, that's it."
Li Guangmin smiled and nodded.
"I'm just telling you, why does it sound so familiar!"
Chen Maochun patted his thigh.
"familiar?"
Ren Xingchen, who was sitting in the back, frowned. She couldn't understand what they were saying, but by saying "familiar", didn't she mean to question the plagiarism of Yang Qian's songs?
After all, the little girl is not too old yet, and she is at an age where she cannot bear to have her idol questioned.
Of course, she didn't dare to talk nonsense. After all, she had met these teachers and knew that her grandfather had a good relationship with them and they were all very senior!
It stands to reason that they are all Yang Qian's teachers, especially teacher Li Guangmin, whom Yang Qian introduced just now. Why doesn't he react at all to other people's questions? He is cheerful, not like he is angry or worried.
What does it look like?
Ren Xingchen was confused and unhappy at the same time. She couldn't hold back her worries, so she couldn't help but whisper into the ear of her mother beside her.
"What plagiarism?"
Tang Xinjing didn't pay attention. She had just been listening to Dai Yuni singing on the stage.
"That's what the old man said. He said that Brother Yang Qian's song had some kind of 156 harmony progression, and he said it was very familiar to him."
Ren Xingchen pouted and whispered to his mother.
"15634145?"
After all, Tang Xinjing had studied music under the influence of her father. Unlike Ren Xingchen now, who had little interest in studying music.
As soon as she heard what her daughter said, she understood.
The number starting with 156 is definitely not a mobile phone number, and Ren Xingchen said it is a harmony process. There are only a few commonly used harmony processes, such as 4536251, 15634145, etc.
Moreover, although she is not as sharp as Chen Maochun, a musician who writes songs, she got in touch after her daughter reminded her.
"It is indeed very familiar. Now that I think about it, it is indeed this harmony."
Tang Xinjing said to her daughter with a smile.
"Mom, do you also think that Brother Yang Qian plagiarized?"
Ren Xingchen frowned and began to feel unhappy.
She didn't question her mother's naivety, but she would definitely feel unhappy and worried that her idol would collapse.
"Haha, it's not what you think, it's not plagiarism. This is a harmony process. Or you can think of it this way, it is the skeleton of a melody. Many songs are based on this skeleton, and then there are many harmonies.
Fill it with elements such as vocals, chords, etc., and finally get the song you hear. These are all very different. In fact, you won’t hear anything similar to other songs in Yang Qian’s song.
Place, isn’t it?”
Tang Xinjing smiled and whispered in her daughter's ear.
"Isn't that a copycat? The skeletons are all other people's, so part of them were copied!"
Ren Xingchen still doesn't understand.
"This is not plagiarism. With the development of popular music now, no song is completely independent, nor can it be completely different from other songs. As long as it is not a complete copy,
And you see that the song just now only used this for the chord progression, the melody is also different, it is a kind of transformation."
Tang Xinjing actually couldn't explain it herself. After all, the music knowledge she had learned before was almost handed over to the teacher.
"If you are interested in this, you can ask grandpa for advice later. But, Chenchen, do you know which song the chord 15634145 originally came from?"
Although Tang Xinjing was also very good, she couldn't help but show off to her daughter.
"Which song?"
Ren Xingchen blinked in confusion.
"Canon!"
"Canon?"
"Yes, so this universal chord is also called the Canon chord."
"It has something to do with Qanon, the Qanon that many people talk about? Why didn't I hear it?"
Ren Xingchen remains doubtful.
"That's a good question..."
…
Ren Xingchen's side just had a small episode that had no impact.
On the stage, Dai Yuni, who had finished singing the first verse, had already taken advantage of the interlude to gracefully walk to Yang Qian step by step. Then, amidst the cheers of the audience, she sat down next to Yang Qian.
Come down.
"There are so many people in this world,
How lucky I am to have us..."
Dai Yuni didn't bother to interact with Yang Qian, so she raised the microphone and started singing.
But this lyric feels even better when she sits next to Yang Qian and sings it!
However, no one knew that Dai Yuni had not discussed this position with Yang Qian. She only knew that Yang Qian could sing this song. Even though it was included in her album as a solo, Dai Yuni did not discuss this position with Yang Qian.
Yu Ni still likes the feeling of Yang Qian singing it!
"The morning and dusk in this long destiny,
It often makes me look into the distance and be fascinated..."
No, Dai Yuni, who was sitting next to Yang Qian, was singing and making eye contact with Yang Qian with her smiling eyes.
After receiving permission from Yang Qian's helpless but doting eyes, Dai Yuni smiled happily and put the microphone in her hand to Yang Qian's mouth.
"Grey leaves are floating in the pond..."
Many people like Cen Liangwei who listened to the song with their eyes closed did not pay attention to Dai Yuni's little movements. It was also when they heard the male singing voice in their ears, which was beyond their expectation, that they opened their eyes in surprise.
At this time, the stadium was already filled with cheers!
Yang Qian's singing is really no worse than Dai Yuni's.
Cen Liangwei's eyes even burst into admiration.
This poet-like voice interprets this song with a sense of delicacy that is different from Dai Yuni's, but is also wonderful!
Of course, no one knew that Yang Qian actually had to lower the key slightly to feel comfortable singing this song, but at this time he didn’t discuss it with the other musicians and it was too late to switch.
But he can't imitate another good male version of this song - strictly speaking, Zhou Shen's version is not even a male version, he is too unique.
The tone and feeling of Zhou Shen's singing cannot be imitated by Yang Qian at this stage.
Therefore, Yang Qian could only flexibly switch to Li Jian's mode that he was most familiar with and liked best, and sang with weak mixing techniques!
The effect is very good. His weak mix is also very stable, and his voice is particularly beautiful. He sings the long and lonely feeling of "the long corridor of time, the footsteps shouting/the lights are on, and the emptiness of no one".
In the hearts of the audience!
It’s time for the chorus!
Should Yang Qian sing, or should Dai Yuni take back the microphone and continue singing by herself?
Under the expectant gaze of the entire audience, Dai Yuni seemed to hear their voices and continued to hold the microphone for Yang Qian.
Her shining eyes seemed to be shining with expectation and love.
You know, her biggest fan is actually her!
(Note 1: The lyricist of "So Many People in the World" is Wang Haitao, Milk Coffee's "Hello Tomorrow", Zhang Liangying's "My Dream" (lyrics: Wang Haitao and Zhang Liangying), Xu Wei's "The Third Pole", etc.
etc. Many songs were written by him.)
(Note 2: 15634145, Canon's universal chord formula. Many people feel that the chorus of "So Many People in the World" is very similar to "Each of Us" by Kousuke Naka. In fact, it is because they both use Canon's chord formula.
But this is not plagiarism. In fact, the two or even three are different. They are based on the chord skeleton.
Basically, they have done harmonies and rich changes in chords. Don’t ask how Xiaohan, a non-professional, knows this. In fact, Ms. Zhou Yusi has made an interpretation video. If you are interested, you can go to the Xiaopo website to check it out.
At first glance, the title is "Why does Karen Mok's hot new song "So Many People in the World" seamlessly connect to Japanese pop songs?"
In fact, there are many popular songs that use this chord formula, such as "Southern Girl", "Suddenly", "Love is Simple", "Absolute Infatuation", "Dimples", "When You", "Friends"
