Chapter 981 Weak version of the treble (two chapters in one)
"Teacher Yang turned around!"
"Wow, that's a close-up!"
"Isn't it so cool to suddenly transform into a drumstick?"
Just as the audience in the live broadcast room was talking a lot, wondering if Yang Qian would get up and sing with Ouyang Xiaoqing, Yang Qian suddenly made a move! However, it was not as if he suddenly turned out a microphone and sang as they thought.
What Qian suddenly "conjured up" were two jazz drum sticks!
At this time, Ouyang Xiaoqing happened to sing "But you'll always be my hero, Even though you've lost your mind" (Translation: But you are still my hero, even though you have lost your mind), and the melody of the music changed from
The previously soft and gentle piano transitioned to the electric guitar with a more intense rhythm and more emotional emotions.
Yang Qian took advantage of this gap and turned around quickly - the stool under his butt was sliding, and he only needed to push his foot to quickly rotate his body!
The program crew deliberately gave him the camera. Domestic audiences were happy, but foreign audiences were a little puzzled.
who is this?
Don't look at Yang Qian's many videos of singing English songs that are widely circulated on the Internet, but for Wai Guoren, who also has prosopagnosia among Chinese people, most people can't recognize who he is at the first time, let alone
What's more, it is impossible for the program team to give Yang Qian, who is not the protagonist, too many scenes at this time.
“Just gonna stand there and watch me burn,
But that's all right because I like the way it hurts"
(Translation: Just stand there and watch me suffer! But it doesn’t matter, I like this painful feeling!)
When Yang Qian played the jazz drum and Ouyang Xiaoqing also played the high note to sing the chorus, the live broadcast screen cut back to the red-haired Ouyang Xiaoqing!
Let’s not talk about Ouyang Xiaoqing here. Just now, Yang Qian “conjured up” drumsticks to beat violently in front of the jazz drum, which still made the domestic audience scream.
Although Ouyang Xiaoqing's performance in singing the chorus was amazing enough, many people in the barrage were still enthusiastically discussing Yang Qian's short and handsome scene.
"Who saw clearly just now? How did Teacher Yang conjure those two sticks?"
"It seems to be hidden in his sleeves. Just now he made a gesture of crossing his hands."
"Aren't you afraid that you won't be able to take it out if you hide it in your sleeve?"
"I don't think this is some kind of magic trick. There was no light or camera just now."
"Do you think it was hidden under the piano and he took it out when we didn't see it?"
"It couldn't have been under the piano. He suddenly took out the drumsticks when he turned around."
In fact, it's not that complicated. It's not a magic trick, and Yang Qian didn't do it deliberately just to look cool. The main reason is that the gap from piano to jazz drum performance is too short, and there is no time for Yang Qian to do it.
When you turn around and take the drumsticks from the drum, you have to start hitting them as soon as you turn around!
When they were arranging the program, they discussed several plans for this, and finally settled on the plan suggested by Chang Xueying - using a small mechanism to buckle the drumsticks on Yang Qian's suit sleeves. When he turned around,
Cross your two hands, grab the drumstick on the opponent's sleeve respectively, and pull it off with a gentle tug. This takes the shortest time and minimizes the error rate.
Of course, there is no possibility of mistakes. n B, put the spare drumstick in front of the jazz drum. If it doesn't work, just spend a little more time to get the spare drumstick.
Fortunately, everything went well.
"Teacher Yang is pretty good at playing the drums!"
"The drum is like gunpowder! It ignited all of a sudden!"
"It's over, Fatty Jiao is going to lose his job!" (Fatty Jiao refers to Jiao Hailong, the drummer of Yang Qian's band, many veterans know them.)
"Show off! Teacher Yang went to the United States to show off his skills. He is capable of both literary and military skills!"
"Teacher Yang seems to know a lot of musical instruments. I've seen him play bass before."
“Am I a band on my own?”
"Speaking of which, have any of you ever seen Teacher Yang play the guzheng? That's really amazing!"
"To be honest, Teacher Yang is really a genius. He seems to know everything about music!"
"So Teacher Yang, please don't collapse the house. Where can you find such a high-quality idol?"
Everyone praised Yang Qian who was no longer in the center of the screen - only his back was left in the upper left corner of the screen.
But Cen Liangwei couldn't help it anymore, and he reminded him aloud:
"Don't worry about Teacher Yang, please listen to Ouyang Xiaoqing's singing first. It's really not easy to sing the heart-breaking emotions in high notes!"
Isn’t it? The chorus part is when Ouyang Xiaoqing shines!
“Just gonna stand there and hear me cry,
But that's all right because I love the way you lie"
(Translation: Just stand there and watch me cry! But it doesn’t matter, I like the feeling of you cheating on me!)
Forget about Yang Qian and go watch Ouyang Xiaoqing’s performance!
Although Ouyang Xiaoqing in the camera is only holding the microphone stand, and only occasionally stretching out her hand to gesture but unable to grasp it, she seems to have no stage performance, which is a bit different from the dance contestants yesterday.
many.
But it doesn't seem to be as plain as everyone thinks. Just standing there singing and relying on the changes in her voice are enough to make people feel the twists and turns of the story and rich emotions behind it!
And one of the key points reminded by Cen Liangwei was felt by everyone when Ouyang Xiaoqing sang the second line of the chorus!
It’s true that the chorus is sung in high notes. Even though the high notes here are not as exaggerated as yesterday’s “Hero”, but for ordinary people, even for many singers, Ouyang Xiaoqing sings this sharp but not too mean tone.
The treble, which is high-pitched but highlights the humbleness of the heart, is enough to make them feel that it is beyond their reach!
Why can high-pitched voices express such an emotional state that is as small as dust?
Doesn’t high-pitched music generally express an attitude of resistance or a fearless spirit?
However, Ouyang Xiaoqing used high notes to express the self-deprecating pain of a woman struggling repeatedly in her emotions, and the more she struggled, the more humble she became.
Is it the singing that is better, or is it Ouyang Xiaoqing who sings better?
Cen Liangwei didn't know, but he was very happy to hear it. His eyes even lit up, and he wished he could stop and study it carefully.
“I love the way you lie,
ohhhh, I love the way you lie”
Cen Liangwei has always felt that being able to sing high notes is certainly a skill, and it is even a talent. Most people are not good at high notes and have a tight throat.
But if you can be high and low, soaring into the sky when it is high, with a high momentum, it is still soft and melodious when it is low, and you can be calm, and you can freely adjust the treble, mid-range and bass, that is the real power, and you can become the top group of strength.
singer.
Ouyang Xiaoqing couldn't do it before. She really likes to sing high notes.
But today, she seemed to have restrained herself and sang out the weakness in the high notes, and it continued to weaken. Even if it was not the bass, it was just a weaker, tired alto, and the sweetness of the singing was still there.
"The sounds and emotions here are all on point! And the sad look with the head bowed, there is something special about the stage performance design."
Cen Liangwei admired in his heart, but before he could raise his hand to applaud, Ouyang Xiaoqing on the screen gently shook away the red hair that had covered her face when she lowered her head just now. The red hair was very non-mainstream.
The makeup revealed an almost bored and crazy look.
"Damn, this is cool!"
Shun Liangwei was shocked by this scene - he was also frightened, but when placed in the background of the song, such an expression seemed very reasonable and a bit cool!
Just like cyberpunk-style art, it is obviously incompatible with mainstream culture and often shows the collapse of society, the tearing of technology, and the twisted side of human nature, but it feels very cool.
The background of the story makes many people fascinated!
Ouyang Xiaoqing seems to be playing the role of the bad girl to the end today!
So under this setting, Cen Liangwei finds her rebellious and crazy expression extremely attractive!
Fortunately, he didn't turn on the microphone, otherwise the audience would definitely hear what he said out of excitement.
However, a new thought emerged in his mind at this time - is the next step of suppression brewing a new explosion?
"So maybe I'm a masochist,
I try to run but I don't wanna ever leave,
'Til the walls are goin' up,
In smoke with all our memories”
(Translation: So maybe I’m just a masochist?
I tried to run away but never really wanted to leave,
Until the wall is built high between us,
Our memories also fade away.)
Sure enough, Ouyang Xiaoqing did not disappoint Cen Liangwei and the audience. She then used more tense body movements and a more cathartic singing voice to vividly interpret the sadness of this love!
If a once deeply loved relationship is displaced, where will there be a winner?
It's just mutual torture, bruises all over the body in the struggle and reluctance, and then the belief finally collapses.
What slightly surprised Cen Liangwei was that in this somewhat awakening singing, Ouyang Xiaoqing did not completely let herself go and show off her advantages in high notes.
She was indeed singing in a high note, but not completely high, as if she had stopped singing just after taking off!
Of course, it is not incomprehensible. Ouyang Xiaoqing's singing here is actually just right. She stopped singing, which means that in this relationship, the female character she represents is really tired. Singing too hard will not
Match the emotional state required by the song.
But this does not mean that Ouyang Xiaoqing's singing is not brilliant!
On the contrary, Cen Liangwei also likes these high notes of hers because they contain very rich emotional connotations. With Ouyang Xiaoqing's originally clear voice, she sings a kind of mysterious and dreamy song in the empty valley.
color!
"This actually better reflects her singing skills and her rapid progress!"
Cen Liangwei admired in his heart.
It is indeed a great improvement. Compared with the previous performances in China, Ouyang Xiaoqing has shed the youthful feeling of a student and looks like an experienced diva singer!
But what Cen Liangwei didn't expect was that Ouyang Xiaoqing sang so much, and it was just a foreshadowing.
In the long coda of "memories", Yali Ferey's rap is overlapped and interspersed!
"This morning, you wake, a sun ray hits your face"
(Translation: This morning, when you woke up, a beam of sunlight shone on your face.)
Before even Shun Liangwei could react, their singing caused the audience on stage to scream and cheer wildly!
At this time, the camera slowly pushed past the red hair of Ouyang Xiaoqing, who had just finished singing, through the crane camera, and then switched to a close-up of Ari Feyre standing in the "flame"!
As expected of Ari Ferey!
Such cheers!
Cen Liangwei couldn't help but shook his head and laughed.
Of course he knows who Ari Ferre is!
Among the world's top rappers who have been ranked in the top ten in the past thirty years, Ari Feyre is definitely a very representative presence.
On the one hand, he is one of the few white rappers, and on the other hand, his songs are so popular that even after many years, they are still collected and liked by Shun Liangwei.
Although Shun Liangwei is not a loyal fan of rap songs, as a qualified music critic, he must listen to all types of songs, and Ari Ferey's songs are relatively positive in the category of rap songs.
Yes, it doesn’t have so much messy content, and it still sounds good. Of course, it can be recognized by Shun Liangwei.
"When he appeared on the stage, there were such high cheers. I wonder if he can bring more votes from the American audience to Ouyang Xiaoqing?"
After all, Shun Liangwei was on the side of the Chinese singer, so he couldn't help but fantasize a little bit.
Then again, in today’s song, was the rap part written by Yang Qian or by Ari Ferey?
As Shun Liangwei told many netizens on the Internet before, he was very worried that Ouyang Xiaoqing and Ari Ferre's styles did not match, and if the programs prepared were not good, the finals would be ruined.
Of course, he is not as extreme as netizens. He feels that the program team deliberately assigned celebrities whose styles do not match to Ouyang Xiaoqing to "arrange" her.
In terms of popularity and celebrity status, Ari Ferre is already in the first line among the American stars who formed a team and drawn lots. And in terms of creative ability, Ari Ferre is so good at writing and rapping. It’s like
Domestic variety shows directly team up Yang Qian with an ordinary contestant. As long as they fit together, the effect will be full!
But whether it works or not depends on the on-site performance.
“Smeared makeup as y in the wake of destruction
Hush baby, speak softly, tell me You're awfully sorry”
(Translation: Dirty makeup is like the ruins we are lying on now,
Shh, honey, please tell me gently that you are really sorry.)
Like most viewers, Shun Liangwei, whose ears can't keep up with the rhythm of people's words, can't understand the meaning of rap lyrics at all.
But the rhythm of Yali Feire’s rap is very enjoyable!
And in the picture, he is wearing a leather jacket, swinging his arms in a playful way among the flames on the screen, and walking towards the audience.
Don’t be too handsome in this scene!
The increasingly fierce screams coming from the scene said it all.
"It seems very good! There is no sense of inconsistency between what I sang just now and what I am singing now!"
Cen Liangwei was so surprised that he couldn't help but pat the table.
