The song "Famous" is included in the Mayday band's ninth album "Autobiography".
In Jiang Yuan's memory, this was the latest album released by Mayday before he traveled through time, and it contained many good songs.
Jiang Yuan has played this album several times and has a deep impression on the song "Famous".
After I opened this song from the treasure chest, I felt that it was very suitable to perform on the stage of the finals.
After playing the demo, it also aroused great resonance among Zheng Qingyang and others, and it was finally decided to use this song as the last performance of the tribe.
The screen stayed on the song title, and there was a burst of excitement in the studio with warm cheers.
Lin Wei stared at the stage with hot eyes. A preliminary concept successfully ignited her, and she had a wonderful premonition.
"Fame is in sight." Li Keshou chewed over the title of the song and found it very interesting.
This word, literally understood, roughly refers to the state of being one step closer to becoming famous.
However, the people who sang this song were all well-known artists, which made Li Keshou very curious about the angle and emotion from which Jiang Yuan and others would sing this song "Famous".
On the surface, this stage is the last performance of "Beyond the Troubles", and everyone in the studio has their eyes on the stage.
A beam of light suddenly turned on, and Lin Xiao's figure was the first to be illuminated.
"Bassist of the band, Lin Xiao!" Jiang Yuan raised the microphone and introduced Lin Xiao. In this performance, Lin Xiao took the position of bassist.
The audience immediately burst into enthusiastic cheers in response.
Another beam of light shone on Wang Hu, and Jiang Yuan introduced him again, "The drummer of the band, Wang Hu!"
Then, the light illuminated Yu Yi.
Yu Yi's timbre is actually not very suitable for this song, so this time he also participated in the performance as a musician, "Band keyboard, Yu Yi!"
"Guitarist and deputy lead singer of the band, Zheng Qingyang!" Jiang Yuan had just finished reading his name, and the cheers on the scene became more and more enthusiastic.
The last beam of light illuminated Jiang Yuan standing in the center of the stage.
I saw Jiang Yuan wearing a denim jacket and carrying a white guitar. He began to introduce himself, "The lead singer of the band, Jiang Yuan!"
Five beams of lights hit the stage, and the enthusiasm of the scene reached a new level again.
The final performance will be in the form of a band.
Wang Hu stood at the side of the stage, holding a tape and stuffing it into the player. The rewind sound sounded, and the performance officially kicked off.
After the rewinding sound ended, Yu Yi played the piano in front of him, and Jiang Yuan sang the lyrics at the same time.
"Find a chord and start singing, the time when the story is forgotten"
"The starting point is the ordinary growth, or the appearance of teenagers when they first learn guitar."
In this section, Jiang Yuan sang with a trumpet, and the singing was accompanied by the sound of piano and strings, and there was also the sound of radio broadcasts processed by Mohu in the background.
On the stage, only a small area in the center was illuminated by lights, while the rest was dark.
This treatment makes the stage very small, which is in sharp contrast to the previous performance stage.
For this short section of the main song, Li Keshou had some visions. He found a chord from the first line and sang it, adding background sound processing.
Originally, he was still thinking about how Jiang Yuan and others were going to sing "Fame".
Jiang Yuan's singing in this section gave the answer.
This section of Jiang Yuan's somewhat distorted singing through the speakers, coupled with the background sound processing, seems to have opened a door to time and returned to the past before he became famous.
"On the stage that year, there was no applause and no spotlight."
Following the reverse processing of the cymbals, Yu also speeded up his finger-picking movements to sing this line.
This is also his only lyric in this performance.
The transition from the distorted sound of the speaker to Yu Yi's singing voice directly using the microphone, supplemented by the accelerated piano sound, has a very distinct sense of layering.
"Only the edge of the basin is stubborn and does not admit defeat."
Wang Hu sang next.
"The days and nights in the rehearsal room are full of arguments and excitement."
Lin Xiao also sang the only line in his song.
"Use the volume to swallow up the hesitation with no way out"
This section was concluded by Zheng Qingyang. The four lines were sung with sincerity and full of emotion.
The four of them all came from bands, and there was a stage where they kept rehearsing the same song just for that one chance to be on stage.
[The book-chasing app recommended to me by an old book friend who I have known for ten years is the Changyuan app! It is so easy to use. I rely on this to read and listen to books while driving and before going to bed. You can download it here. huanyuanapp ]
No one can know whether he can be popular or whether his future is bright, so he can only keep singing and keep raising his volume.
There was no other reason, just because I was timid and hesitant in my heart, so I could only deliberately raise my voice and continue to practice thousands of times.
Chen Hai couldn't help but hissed after hearing these words.
The accompaniment becomes a lot more intense when the distorted tone is over, and this kind of processing should have a brighter feel.
But when Zheng Qingyang and others sang, there was no sense of brightness at all. Instead, the audience could see from the singing the difficult period that the four people had gone through before they became shining.
At the end of this part of the singing, Wang Hu beat the drum in front of him, all the instruments came in, and the first chorus started.
"There is light at the end of the darkness"
"There will be light at the end of the night"
For the chorus, Jiang Yuan and Zheng Qingyang sang one sentence at a time.
"Then fame is within sight, and there is hope."
"Or, ignorant arrogance"
"So what will happen? So what will happen?"
In the last line of the chorus, Jiang Yuan and Zheng Qingyang looked at each other, giving a sense of dialogue.
At the end of this chorus, Chen Hai raised his eyebrows again. This chorus continued the feeling of the previous verse.
When all the instruments come into play, it’s another step forward at the song level.
The chorus should have been a small climax, but it was sung by Jiang Yuan and Zheng Qingyang to give it a "mourning" feeling.
Will there be light at the end of darkness? I don’t know. Will there be light at the end of night? I don’t know.
And fame is in sight, it seems close and full of hope, but this short distance may also be a natural chasm (qian four sounds).
Jiang Yuan and the two sang, if they don't expect to become famous, then why not think of it as ignorant arrogance.
Chen Haiai was so miserable that he paid close attention to the lyrics when he listened to the song for the first time.
“Only after being a resident singer in a wine bar can I understand the ordinary nature of human nature.”
"After carrying the weight of a music festival, I realize that every battle relies on guns and food."
The previous chorus ends and the next verse comes immediately.
The instruments are still playing, but the beat of the drums has changed.
Wang Hu stuck to the rhythm, increased the strength of his hands, and beat the drum in front of him.
Each drum beat was solid and powerful, revealing firmness, as if it symbolized the trumpet raising the curtain and gradually entering a formal chapter.
"Dreams are boiled blood, sweat and tears into soup"
"Water on the dry, barren, reality"
Jiang Yuan sang while playing the guitar in his hand.
As the song reaches this section, the melody becomes increasingly exciting.
"This sentence is so well written!" Li Keshou praised it abruptly.
From the beginning of the rewind, Li Keshou listened very attentively.
Like many sub-lyrics in the past, he found that the rhyme of each line of this song fell on the "ang" rhyme.
The song "Fame" is actually not conspicuous among Mayday's well-known songs, plus it was released late.
So few people know that it was this song that allowed Ashin to win the 28th Best Lyricist Award and become a piece of the puzzle for the Golden Melody Award.
When this adverb reached parallel time and space, Li Keshou was full of praise.
The rhyme of the lyrics continued, and Li Keshou continued to listen attentively.
"Let us not resist when the daily weight is heavy"
"Only after I fell to the ground did I realize that in the wasteland, there was hope, and hope was blooming!"
Jiang Yuan and Zheng Qingyang sang together, their emotions brewing bit by bit and rising upwards.
"Through rock or frost, vulgarity or ideal, on the road"
"I can only look into the distance, the farthest place, the promised place, keep crashing!"
The stage echoes the singing, and originally only a small part of the stage had lights.
At this moment, as Jiang Yuan and the two sang, the area illuminated by the light gradually expanded.
Corresponding to the lyrics, this represents a part of struggle.
The lights expanded inch by inch, Jiang Yuan and Zheng Qingyang looked at each other and began to sing duet, soaring their high notes.
"How many faces have I seen!" Jiang Yuan sang.
"How many foreign lands have I flown through!" Zheng Qingyang sang.
Piano arpeggios are added to this section, and Yu Yi's fingers repeatedly play the chords from high to low, which increases the layering of the accompaniment and also elevates the mood of the song again.
The camera also zoomed in, giving Yu Yi a close-up.
Yu Yi played this arpeggio very cleanly, and his fingers ran over the keys as if they were not stained by dust.
"The young man is already confused!"*2
The same lyrics were sung separately by Jiang Yuan and they had different meanings.
"looking back" "looking back"
"Where am I?" Jiang Yuan and Zheng Qingyang sang in chorus, looking at each other.
At this moment, the entire stage is illuminated, showing the whole scene.
The previous section is about before becoming famous, while this section is about after becoming famous.
All the lights turned on, and the whole stage suddenly looked bright and bright!
"Wandering from stop to stop, the hotel and the airport"
"Interviews over and over again, and offense and defense"
"Pair after pair of eyes, like a prison and a high wall"
“Isn’t the scenery inside the wall just as imagined!”
Line by line, the song is all about looking back on the experience after becoming famous.
Li Keshou was so excited to sing this section that he stood up from his seat. The structure and completeness of the entire lyrics exceeded his imagination.
This transition section, coupled with the effect of the live stage, made many audience members excited.
In the first half, Lin Wei was listening to the song intently, even though she was always in an excited mood.
Her premonition was indeed accurate. Jiang Yuan did choose her favorite rock music for this last performance.
Hearing this, I got goosebumps all over my body.
At this time, the second chorus sounded.
"There is light at the end of darkness, and there is light at the end of night!"
Compared with the first chorus, the band's performance has also changed in this section, which is syncopated according to the rhythm of the lyrics.
Every drum beat and every musical instrument played are so perfect and complement each other.
Even the singing of this chorus was directly raised to a higher octave, and the emotions brewing were all vented at this moment!
For the live audience, it is also very impactful, has an excellent listening experience, and is extremely enjoyable!
"Then fame is in sight, is it beautiful?"
"Or, crazy fire"
"So what! So what?"
The duo Jiang Yuan sang in high pitched voices, and the lights on the scene kept flashing along with the rhythm of the song.
At the same time, Jiang Yuan did not stop playing. The chorus ended and came to the interlude of the song.
Jiang Yuan once again performed a guitar solo.
As soon as this solo came out, Shi Ying was suddenly pinched by Lin Wei.
Another guitar solo, even more handsome than the previous one, Lin Wei is completely obsessed with it.
Shi Ying's condition was not much better, and she also pinched Lin Wei. The two of them screamed softly while pinching each other.
The entire scene was completely on fire.
After the interlude, there is another bridge connection, the first part is sung solo by Jiang Yuan.
"ere so young, I dreamed that we climbed over the wall!"
"Mandala flowers bloom along the way, and we travel through the absurdity of the world with bare feet."
During this section of Bridge's singing, the lights on the stage also retracted and shrank again, creating a time-traveling effect.
At this time, the light shone on Jiang Yuan and Zheng Qingyang.
Only then did everyone notice that the guitars Jiang Yuan and Zheng Qingyang were carrying were actually the same model, but the one in Zheng Qingyang's hand had been aged, showing signs of the passage of time.
Next, switch to Zheng Qingyang’s part.
"We're stupid but strong, the roof after school is like a square with thousands of people!"
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Never think too much, just believe"
"The young man looked back and laughed at me for not catching up quickly!"
When he sang the last line, Zheng Qingyang looked at Jiang Yuan and smiled.
The processing of this paragraph is like a dialogue between the past self and the future self.
At the end of the singing, there was another interlude guitar solo, this one was completed by Zheng Qingyang.
The stage lights flash continuously with the rhythm of the guitar, and the effect is very cool.
The interlude ends and the last chorus sounds. This section is directly accelerated.
"Who can forget the end of the road! Who is singing at the end of the road!"
"Whoever is in sight of becoming famous has been disappointed, but who is looking forward to it more!"
The accelerated chorus is more decisive, more active, more exciting and more burning!
It directly caused the entire audience to jump to the rhythm.
He Jing and others, including brothers from the other two tribes, had also stood up from their seats at this moment.
Although this song is not a classic that they are familiar with, with the performance of Jiang Yuan and others, the lyrics successfully sang into their hearts.
Unconsciously, they all recalled their past experiences and resonated with them.
"There is light at the end of the darkness, and the sky will be bright at the end of the night!"
"It has nothing to do with the truth that fame is in sight, if you always believe in your heart"
"Who can do anything!"
The last chorus is sung by Jiang Yuan alone.
After Zheng Qingyang finished singing the previous bridge segment, he focused on his guitar solo performance.
At this moment, Jiang Yuan was singing and Zheng Qingyang was playing.
The guitar sound and the singing keep the same rhythm and complement each other, as if they have completed a dialogue again.
"Who can do anything!" Jiang Yuan raised a high note again.
Yu Yi and others were behind, singing "You can fly!" in harmony.
Zheng Qingyang sang "You can fly!"
For the last time, Jiang Yuan raised his voice slightly, with a firm gaze, and sang the last line resolutely, "You can fly!"
The singing ended, but the band's performance continued.
Wang Hu and others were all devoted to this performance.
The final outro, the bass played by Lin Xiao, finally came to the fore.
If we say which instrument has the least sense of presence in the band, the bass is the first to bear the brunt.
Many people can't hear bass at all, so Lin Xiao is now letting the audience see it and find some sense of existence.
Finally, golden fireworks exploded on the stage, bringing the performance to a close.
