Jiang Yuan's new album this time, because many songs have been performed in advance, and in order to retain a sense of mystery for the few remaining singles, there is no full album preview video.
Now I have reserved this link for the live broadcast before the official release of the album.
After confirming the first track to be played, Jiang Yuan found the "Sugar" file on his mobile phone, dragged the progress bar to the designated position, and then pressed the play button.
"Sugar" is a single from the band Maroon5. It is also a global hit and shines on the music charts.
Generally speaking, when listening to a song, the highlight section is rarely released directly, but at this time, it was only about twenty minutes before the new album was officially released, so Jiang Yuan directly dragged it to the chorus without thinking.
part.
Music began to play in the live broadcast room.
“Sugar~yes please~
Won't you e and put it down on me?
(Sweetheart, please come if you are right!
Do you want to come to me and sprinkle sugar on me?)"
The silky high-pitched sound was played directly, and Jiang Yuan swayed slightly to the rhythm.
"I'm right here cause I need~
Little love a little sympathy~
(I'm here because I need some love and some compassion~)"
Jiang Yuan followed the music for a short while and then pressed the pause button.
Click till then.
Many times when listening to a song, there is a natural transition from the verse to the chorus, and there is a buffer time.
But Jiang Yuan directly played the chorus of the song, which had a relatively strong impact on the audience.
Just like the communication mode of many short videos, the most brainwashing paragraphs are shown here. At this moment, the exaggerated method is like listening to celestial music.
After Jiang Yuan played a short section and pressed the pause button, the barrage also started shouting.
【Isn’t it nice to hear?】
[It’s like listening to fairy music and your ears are temporarily bright!]
【Do you dare to play another short segment?】
[Please, please play me another short segment, I feel uncomfortable...]
【"Sugar" is indeed very magical!】
[If you can’t continue playing, then go to the next one.]
——
Jiang Yuan stared at the barrage for a while, and then said, "I won't continue to broadcast it for now, but there will be a MV for this song later, so you can look forward to it!"
"Let's play the next song first, everyone can type in the song title..."
During the rest of the live broadcast, Jiang Yuan played a short segment of each of the remaining three songs.
After all the fans in the live broadcast room listened to it, while giving fans a preliminary understanding of the new song, their expectations for the whole song also increased to a peak.
Among them is Chen Hai who has been watching the live broadcast. As a domestic music critic, Chen Hai has still paid a lot of attention to Jiang Yuan in the past year.
It's just that because Jiang Chui's identity is deeply ingrained, some of the related music reviews he wrote have not received as much attention as Aaron's translated music reviews.
It can only be said that he is not tired of Jiang Yuan's music yet, but everyone is tired of his music reviews in advance.
However, as a pure listener, Chen Hai is also looking forward to Jiang Yuan's album.
At the same time, there were also some music bloggers and music critics from across the ocean watching Jiang Yuan's live broadcast.
Emily Flanagan is one of the music bloggers, and she is also a music critic for a music review account named Music Cat.
The account is considered a scoring account, consisting of five music bloggers like Emily.
Different from some official organizations that appear to be more authoritative, the Music Cat account is more wild.
Different from the official ratings, we will only select some of our favorite albums to comment and share.
The works that appear in the channel are either criticized very harshly, or are loved by the bloggers who run the account.
At the same time, a favorite value will appear based on the number of likes, from one to five stars, with each blogger representing one star. Only works that receive four or more stars at the same time can appear in the channel's recommendations.
The reason why Emily paid attention to Jiang Yuan's live broadcast was related to the channel's annual album selection this year.
In fact, Music Cat Channel's annual best list has been produced, but there are still certain uncertainties, namely Jiang Yuan's unreleased album.
Three of the five people on the channel are actually more inclined to vote for Jiang Yuan, but they do not include Emily.
Mainly because in recent times, the momentum of Jiang Yuan's new album has received too much praise and recommendations from some media and music critics like Aaron.
Emily never wanted the best of the year on the Music Cat Channel to be the most popular album of the year.
However, Jiang Yuan's "The Odrinary Life" contains several very popular singles that struck Emily's fancy, so she finally decided to listen to the last few singles of the album before making a decision.
By the way, I also watched Jiang Yuan’s live broadcast.
Although the two-hour live broadcast was all about Jiang Yuan chatting with fans, it still made Emily change some of her impressions of Jiang Yuan.
Mainly because after staring at Jiang Yuan for a long time, Emily suddenly felt that her computer screen looked much better.
It wasn't until Jiang Yuan said that his live broadcast was ending and it was time for the new album to be released that Emily realized with hindsight that two hours had passed.
After staring at Jiang Yuan's face for two hours, if it weren't for her insistence on being responsible for the channel, Emily would actually want to directly give her vote to Jiang Yuan.
After watching Jiang Yuan wave goodbye and disappear from the screen, Emily's rationality gradually returned.
After becoming rational again, Emily thought about the fragments of the four new songs she had just heard, and nodded secretly.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The four songs all play the chorus of the song. This is the case when singles in the same album play the chorus in succession.
It sounds good, but it is very likely to cause aesthetic fatigue.
After all, this kind of thing is very subjective. At the best, it can be said that the album style is unified, but in another way, it can also be said that the homogeneity is too serious.
However, after thinking about the four songs played by Jiang Yuan, Amy was a little surprised to find that she still had some impressions of them.
Just like the previous singles on the album.
But while doing this, it also allows people to distinguish each song very well, with rich and distinct styles.
Emily was thinking as she clicked to switch computer pages. Unknowingly, the balance in the center, which was already somewhat offset, tipped slightly.
However, there are many factors that need to be considered in the selection of a best album in the Music Cat channel.
The first time the album was released, Emily did not listen to the remaining singles in one go, but clicked on the MV for the song "Sugar".
When Jiang Yuan's live broadcast ended, the album and MV were released simultaneously at the same time.
Finding an MV that didn't have many views yet, Emily pressed the play button. Sometimes the visual performance of an album is also an important factor in judging.
"The MV this time is quite different from the past. You can take a look after it is released."
Recalling what Jiang Yuan said during the live broadcast, Emily stared at the first scene of the MV, and her expectations were raised a lot.
Jiang Yuan found the setting of the original MV for "Sugar" very interesting, so he continued to use this setting during filming without making too many changes.
In the first scene of the MV, there are church bells ringing, several cars parked neatly in front of a small house, and then Jiang Yuan and several musicians from the band walked out in suits and ties.
The camera shot directly at Jiang Yuan's face from far to near, and the story about this MV started with Jiang Yuan's words.
"Next, we will drive to some wedding venues that we can catch up with..." Jiang Yuan introduced as he got into the driving seat of the vehicle.
At the same time, several chat box screenshots from Yuyuan Universe popped up on the interface on both sides of the MV.
In the Yuan Universe app, we previously set up a wishing bottle activity, and many fans sent their wishes in it.
The studio conducted a keyword search and found some fans who were planning to hold weddings.
And selected some fan weddings that happened to be on the "World Song" travel route that Jiang Yuan could attend.
After communication, Jiang Yuan appeared at some fans' wedding performances and completed the filming of the MV.
Different from the Maroon5 band who randomly rush to some wedding venues and play the role of Ma Laowu's wedding team, the purpose of Jiang Yuan's operation is obviously much clearer.
It's just a proper act of doting on fans.
With just one opening, it successfully attracted many fans on the barrage.
[Holy shit? When did this happen??]
[Oh my god, is there such a thing? The first MV released for the new album is a fan wedding? 】
[Jiang Yuan is really good at it, it’s not just me saying that!]
[If you really show up at my wedding, I might cry to death on the spot!]
【Hahahahaha, I can finally say it, I have been holding it back for months.】
[I also received contact before, but the wedding had already been held at that time. I cried...]
[Ah ah ah ah, it’s so good, but it’s a pity that I don’t even have a partner, so I can only watch...]
Although it is not a universal fan-favoring behavior, many fans are still warmed by it.
After all, it is indeed unexpected for everyone to directly appear at a fan's wedding and put it into the MV.
When Emily saw the idea at the beginning, she couldn't help but show admiration, and then praised it for how romantic it was.
Switching to the perspective of a fan, Emily will indeed feel that she has received enough attention.
After Jiang Yuan's opening remarks were over, the vehicle officially started.
The scene of everyone arriving at the wedding venue and starting to decorate was interspersed with the scene of the vehicle driving on the road, and at the same time, the song started to play.
"I'm hurting baby I'm broken down,
I need your loving loving I need now,
When I'm without you I'm something weak.....
(I'm hurt and heartbroken, I need your love right now, when I lose you...)"
The cheerful main song combined with the same brisk picture gives people a bright feeling.
When Emily learned that this MV was going to the weddings of fans, the corners of her mouth curled up subconsciously.
The wedding itself has a sense of happiness, and on this basis, Jiang Yuan's presence and blessings make the happiness even more satisfying.
Fans' wedding information was collected through questionnaires. At the time of collection, fans did not know that Jiang Yuan would parachute into his wedding.
After all, when the questionnaire was collected at that time, the reason explained by the studio was that it would send blessings and surprises on the wedding day. It also mentioned in brackets at the back that the surprises might be congratulatory flower baskets, video blessings, etc.
No one could have imagined that Jiang Yuan’s surprise at the scene of his air landing would be included in this and so on.
Some of the fans in the MV were contacted by the studio in advance, and of course some were dropped randomly in order to surprise fans and ensure the fun of the MV.
Some scenes like this were played during the main song. A bunch of people in black suddenly rushed into the wedding and started decorating it themselves.
There were indeed quite a few guests who didn't understand what was going on, and their true reactions were recorded in the MV, which looked particularly interesting.
Before Jiang Yuan officially appeared at the wedding, the entire MV gave Emily a sense of anticipation.
Looking forward to Jiang Yuan’s sudden appearance at the wedding scene, what kind of reaction will everyone give? This is actually the same reason why some challenge videos are attractive to watch.
Emily stared closely at the computer screen.
As the main song part was about to be completed, Jiang Yuan also drove to the wedding venue in his car.
We quietly entered the curtain that had been arranged in advance, and the staff invited the bride and groom to the curtain.
When the whole audience was confused, the curtain came down and the chorus started singing.
"Sugar~yes please~....."
For the first chorus, I chose a wedding venue where I had not been contacted in advance and landed without any warning.
All the guests, including the newlyweds, were a little confused and thought it was a surprise prepared by the wedding company.
So when Jiang Yuan appeared and started performing, the whole audience burst into various exclamations, which were recorded in the MV.
The first couple was actually Jiang Yuan's first wedding, and they were a foreign couple.
However, at that time Jiang Yuan was already quite popular due to several singles, so the popularity and response were still quite good.
As for the fans themselves, they were really excited and almost cried during Jiang Yuan's performance.
This beautiful scene made Emily nod secretly.
Similar scenes continued to appear in the following MVs, with Jiang Yuan flashing into one fan's wedding scene after another in different outfits.
It spanned many countries around the world and recorded the real reactions of fans.
This kind of MV is something Emily has never seen before, and it is a bit new.
But I have to say that Emily watched the whole process with a smile on her face.
And after reading it, my mood also became happy.
After playing such a unique MV, Emily pondered for a few seconds to reflect on it, and then the balance in her heart tilted a lot again.
Finally, I couldn't help but play back the MV again before leaving the interface to listen to the full songs of several other songs.
At the same time, within such a short time since the MV was released, related discussions and topics have begun to soar at an alarming rate.
