"Boss, I have already downloaded Teacher Yang's demo. You don't need to download it again. Just click on the download file in the upper right corner."
At the reminder of his assistant Zhang Yuanling, Kong Yi clicked on the top song in the download list.
The sorting in the download list is reversed from the sorting of email attachments. After all, Zhang Yuanling downloaded the first song first, and then downloaded the second song.
However, this didn't seem to have any impact. Kong Yi took a look and realized that he listened to the song with a slightly longer name first - "Blooming Life"! (Note 1)
"The title of this song is a bit interesting."
In fact, Kong Yi not only thought the title of the song was interesting, but when he said it, an electric guitar melody that made people feel refreshed was already playing from the speaker of his tablet.
The drum set that plays next is so fast that it makes you want to shake your legs along with it!
The intro is actually very simple, just a repetition of a melody, but it is really catchy and makes people unable to help but immerse themselves in this rock and roll atmosphere.
"How many times have I fallen on the road,
How many times have I broken my wings?
Now I no longer feel hesitant,
I want to transcend this ordinary luxury..."
Listening to the opening lyrics, Kong Yi's fingers, which he placed on the table and tapped to the beat, suddenly stopped.
That’s what this song is like!
Kong Yi understood.
He asked why Yang Qian wrote a song called "Blooming Life" for the program "Happy Every Day"!
It turns out that he was not writing for hosts like Lin Cheng, nor for the celebrity guests, but for the ordinary guests who were invited to show off their personal achievements!
Kong Yi remembered that Yang Qian said that when he was in college, in order to do research, he watched many episodes of "Happy Everyday" and carefully analyzed the program clips of young entrepreneurs related to traditional culture, science and technology, culture and education.
In fact, these people have experienced various successes and failures, and have tasted the ups and downs of the world. Even if they stand on the stage of "Happy Every Day", they may not always be able to continue to be brilliant.
But it’s just like what the song says!
No matter how many times they fell on the road, no matter how many times the wings of their dreams were broken, no matter how many times they were hesitant and confused, they persisted and eventually transcended the ordinary and transcended themselves.
They have already paid the cost of failure, and even if they fail again, they can bravely start over.
This is the temperament of the guests that Kong Yi saw at the recording site before - not admitting defeat!
And Kong Yi felt that what Yang Qian wanted to sing should also have such a spirit!
"I want a life in full bloom,
Like flying in the vast sky,
Like walking through the boundless wilderness,
Have the power to break free from everything..."
Yang Qian actually didn't sing that hard, and Kong Yi could tell that he was holding back.
Although the lyrics made people's blood boil, and Kong Yi felt the flamboyance of life in full bloom, Yang Qian did not sing it. He just hummed the chorus softly, and the power that made people's blood boil seemed not to be fully unleashed.
But it’s not difficult to understand, after all, this audio file is just a demo!
Demo means sample, sample tape. In many cases, demo is just hummed casually. Especially if the songwriter himself has not grasped the best way to sing the song, he will just hum it vaguely based on the melody.
That's it.
Even though there are many excellent singers who can complete their demos to a high degree and even share them with fans, the characteristics of the demo itself mean that it is not perfect and cannot be as good as the officially released album. The recording and processing were flawless.
The demo sung by Yang Qian sounded to Kong Yi very close to the officially released music, but his voice was still a little too small, and the audio had not been professionally processed such as noise reduction or mixing, so it was indeed rough. Some.
It's not that Yang Qian doesn't know how to do it, he has already mastered the equipment in the recording studio, and Qianyu Media has a dedicated recording engineer.
It's just that Yang Qian doesn't have that much time to record repeatedly for the time being. Anyway, it's just the audition stage, and demo is enough.
Moreover, Yang Qian did not intend to sing this song himself...
Let’s not mention this for now. Although Kong Yi feels that Yang Qian’s chorus part is a little weak and a bit awkward, it does not prevent him from enjoying this song, especially its rhythm changes very quickly and quickly enters the main song. , and quickly enters the chorus.
"How many times have I lost my direction?
How many times have my dreams been shattered?
Now I no longer feel confused,
I want my life to be liberated..."
It still feels the same as the first verse of the verse, but what Kong Yi thinks of is not just the strivers who continue to start their own businesses, but he also thinks of many things:
Candidates taking the college entrance examination!
Athletes participating in the competition!
Young people facing life choices!
And I have struggled and doubted myself in the past!
In fact, this song can still resonate with them, and it can also help them cheer up and find the direction of struggle again!
The chorus part repeated the first chorus again. At first, Kong Yi thought that Yang Qian should go back and change it.
The verse in the second verse is different, so why is the chorus still the same?
With your lyric writing skills, Teacher Yang, you shouldn’t be unable to write equally wonderful choruses, right?
But soon, Kong Yi couldn't help but stood up from the soft sofa chair.
"I want a life in full bloom,
Like standing on top of the rainbow,
Like walking through the bright stars,
Possessing power beyond the ordinary..."
This section made him want to stand up and listen.
Of course, it's not that exaggerated. It's not that the song is sublime, but that a scene in Kong Yi's memory was awakened.
In addition to being an executive of Mango Super Entertainment, Kong Yi is also a staunch outdoor sports enthusiast.
He usually runs for fitness and maintains a good physical and physical condition. When he is on vacation, he will invite a group of friends to go hiking, camping, and even hiking in some deep mountains and old forests.
The section Yang Qian sang reminded him of a cycling trip along the Sichuan-Tibet line when he was in his thirties. The distance of the journey and the harsh conditions were absolutely unimaginable to those who had not experienced it.
Of course, in Kong Yi's view, the gains far outweigh the efforts.
For example, one night in the wilderness when he had to sleep outdoors, a group of friends played and sang accompanied by a bonfire. Kong Yi couldn't sing, so he lay on the blanket and looked up at the stars in the sky.
The sky is really full of stars. In the plateau without light pollution, the stars are like rivers, stretching across the field of vision in a strip. They are colorful and breathtakingly beautiful.
Therefore, when he heard Yang Qian singing "It's like walking through the bright stars, possessing power beyond the ordinary", Kong Yi felt that he had returned to that time, felt the power of beauty again, and felt the strong pulse of his youth again.
.....
Now that he is getting older, he should not dare to risk riding the Sichuan-Tibet line again, but Kong Yi suddenly wants to meet up with a group of old friends again, drive an off-road vehicle, save some energy, and pursue his dream again...
...
(Note 1: "Blooming Life" actually does not need to be introduced too much. Many friends should have vomited while singing it while reading. However, out of respect for the original author, I still want to explain, "Blooming Life"
It is the work of teacher Wang Feng, including lyrics, music and original singing.)
