The opening lines of the song, coupled with the 360-degree dance surrounding the scene, the artistic conception of the song was constructed in an instant.
Jiang Yuan's voice and accompaniment merged together and were amplified by the expensive sound equipment on site, creating a surround-like immersive listening experience for the audience.
Some just-right vibrato is added to the singing to make the emotional expression more delicate and moving.
Jiang Yuan stood on the stage dressed in white, and her singing voice was exceptionally clear and translucent.
Whether it is inserted into the background story or viewed independently as an affectionate and handsome young man, it is extremely suitable.
"Paranoid belief in the cursed crystal ball,
Reasons to block possible heartbeat..."
When Jiang Yuan sang this song, he used a very soft voice, which was sharply different from some of the previous more explosive songs.
The fans in the audience immediately fell silent and gently waved the support lights in their hands.
At the moment when the singing just started, there were not many other complicated feelings for the time being, just two words that were quite pure.
Sounds good!
After such a short period of time, Chen Hai and the two of them had already closed their eyes, not yet feeling so amazing.
But with Jiang Yuan's tone and singing skills, as long as the melody is not too outrageous, no matter how he sings, it will sound good.
"But you came closer, forcing our eyes to cross each other,
Stay still, or move forward, suddenly paying attention to this minute..."
As Jiang Yuan sang, he turned slightly sideways and began to sing facing the fans in the other direction.
The stage floor screen changes into the image of ancient Jiangnan architecture, and the upper part is intertwined with silhouette animations of the story and various camera shots of Jiang Yuan.
After singing for a short period, the strings quietly joined the concerto. The song was still soft as a whole, but the overall mood gradually began to have an upward trend.
"The yellow sand in front of me is filled with waiting,
A feeble cry for help came to my ears,
Chasing requires that my love be unreserved..."
In the few lines before the chorus, the tension of Jiang Yuan's singing continued to increase, and his emotions began to rise with the strings that became more and more obvious in the accompaniment.
The overall dance beauty and the lyrics are consistent, giving the audience a hazy feeling.
At this time, the accompaniment also paused for a moment at the right time. This just-right pause made the audience hold their breath unconsciously.
The whole place was very quiet. Everyone knew very well about this arrangement, and something seemed to be coming from ahead.
The accompaniment started again, and the players of different instruments suddenly started playing as if they had been preparing for a long time.
Jiang Yuan also made a steady 180-degree turn at the right time of the accompaniment, with flying white clothes facing the audience behind him and raising the microphone.
"I'm riding a white horse and walking through three levels~"
Singing, accompaniment, makeup, and stage design, everything is perfectly blended together in this most colorful section of the song.
As the emotions of the main song are stacked up, it transitions to the song part bit by bit. The succession and transition of the melody part itself is enough to amaze the audience.
Not to mention that this chorus specifically quotes elements of Taiwanese opera. The use of Hokkien in this song is very wonderful, adding a lot of luster to the whole song.
In the live broadcast room, the director seemed to be crazy busy, giving orders without leaving any space for himself. The scene of Jiang Yuan turning around and raising his eyes to sing with deep emotion was deeply engraved in the minds of the audience.
"I'll change into plain clothes and go back to the Central Plains~"
When singing the chorus, Jiang Yuan added a little bit of drama to his singing, and at the same time, his singing postures also showed the steps of an opera.
For many viewers, it is difficult to describe this performance as just performing a new song.
At a certain moment, many viewers suddenly saw a deeper story through such a performance, like a musical or something else.
"Leave Xiliang alone~No one cares~"
The soundtrack of the song also includes more international instruments in the chorus. The camera shows a corner of the stage, and the members of the Xinhuo label also return, and they also put on ancient costumes that match the overall tone of the stage, and Jiang Yuan
Together they are integrated into the background of the story.
"All I want is~Wang Baochuan!"
The last line of the chorus directly sang Wang Baochuan's name, successfully echoing the background of the silhouette story that had been playing on the big screen.
Although the entire chorus is sung in Hokkien, it does not affect everyone's understanding.
Not to mention that everyone can overcome the lyrics and read the subtitles of English songs, but the lyrics of this chorus are not too many.
Especially the dialect form can be roughly understood, so I can still fully perceive the emotion of the song.
And because there is such a section in the song, it adds a lot of freshness that shines in front of your eyes.
When the chorus finished singing, following Jiang Yuan's singing, the suona sound suddenly sounded and joined the accompaniment.
As the saying goes, once the suona sounds, there is a thousand taels of gold.
Those who dare to add this instrument into the arrangement are usually ruthless people. If they are not careful, they can easily steal the scene and ruin the whole.
However, the suona joined in the interlude of this song, but it was not as overbearing as usual.
It seems to have a softer atmosphere like Jiang Yuan's singing, but it seems a bit sad and poignant.
The suona sounded, and Jiang Yuan also raised a hand, then turned around and began to pace slowly in the other direction of the stage, and then began to sing the second verse of the song.
The suona in the interlude was like a signal. As Jiang Yuan began to take steps on the stage, the drum beats also beat simultaneously in the accompaniment, creating a completely different level from the first verse.
"But you are getting closer..."
After Jiang Yuan started walking around to sing, under the close-up shots, many viewers had the illusion that the other person was lovingly moving into their hearts.
The words are still the same adverb, but the emotion and momentum are mobilized even more.
After three sentences, as the drum beat paused, the singing entered the chorus part again.
"I ride on a white horse...
I am a flower in the mirror and a moon in the water..."
As the drum beats entered, the momentum was lifted a lot again, and at the same time, the harmony and the suona were also added to the accompaniment, enriching the layers.
After a chorus ends, the bridge section of the song comes, and the electric guitar joins in and starts roaring.
“My whole body is covered with scars and there is no time to feel pain.
That's the clear feeling that leads me to you..."
By the time of this bridge paragraph, Jiang Yuan's whole person's state had completely opened up.
The emotions are foreshadowed by the two choruses, and in this section both the singing function and the emotional catharsis have reached the highest point.
“No matter if it’s dangerous or not, I’ll drop everything and go with you.
As long as we bear it together, as long as you don’t let go!!”
Jiang Yuan made a smooth transition and slid directly to the high notes of the song.
If everyone heard this before as a very soft and affectionate love song, now this section directly declares to everyone that love songs can also explode.
Through this bridge, the emotions of both Jiang Yuan and the audience climbed to a new peak along with the song.
Let everyone begin to look forward to the arrival of the next chorus.
"I'm riding a white horse ~ going through three levels!!"
Different from the studio version of the original song, the beginning of this section of the song uses Zhang Jie's adapted version on the variety show.
This version has a somewhat competitive nature, so it is more imposing in this section and is very suitable for performances in such a large venue.
Although it is the same chorus, each section has a different treatment and different levels.
Just like the song "Jiuer" has only four lines from beginning to end, many listeners even realize this after listening to the entire song.
In this way, the audience can feel what the whole song wants to express by following the different singing methods and emotional progression of a few words.
But this time, during the third chorus, the audience's emotions further reached a climax with the song.
Through Jiang Yuan's singing, you can feel the refreshing and fun feeling brought by this singing method.
At the same time, we can further feel Jiang Yuan's emotional progression in the song, which makes people feel excited.
After singing this chorus, Jiang Yuan made no changes to the original song.
Originally, Jiang Yuan also considered whether to add a more serious drama, but felt that if it was not handled well, it would be too divisive.
So after this chorus, Jiang Yuan's mood suddenly dropped and he began to become restrained.
The accompaniment also slowly fell back, along with the stage choreography.
Jiang Yuan lowered his head slightly and listened for a while, then raised his head again, raised the microphone and sang the last chorus.
Like the first chorus, Jiang Yuan's singing matched the accompaniment at this last moment and seemed very gentle.
But the level is different from the first time, and it brings a sense of loneliness and fragmentation to the final ending of the song.
After the last line was sung, Jiang Yuan stared steadily at the camera in front of him, letting time flow by.
At that moment, Jiang Yuan's eyes were full of drama.
He successfully brought his acting skills to the stage.
Such a look seems to bring the emotions in the background of the story to the scene across time and space.
The wonderful thing about the whole process is that everyone was clearly very excited during the third verse, but when the last chorus came, everyone's emotions dropped along with the song.
Even many viewers who got into the situation were directly impressed by Jiang Yuan's singing.
"Jiang Yuan's acting skills have improved again. This eye scene, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, it is a pity not to shoot in ancient costume!"
When the entire audience was still immersed in the aftertaste of the song, He Jing, who was sitting in a certain box, slapped his thigh suddenly and praised Jiang Yuan's acting skills.
Apparently, he was shocked by Jiang Yuan's look, or his acting skills throughout the song.
Being able to act so completely during the performance of a song even gave people the illusion that Jiang Yuan on stage was a character that fit the story of the song rather than Jiang Yuan himself.
It was indeed the first time for He Jing to see this level of acting at a concert.
At the same time, I deeply agree with the comments from netizens that it would be a pity not to act in costume.
If He Jing hadn't already prepared a project on hand, He Jing would have gone out on his own to find out if there was a suitable costume script for Jiang Yuan to film.
The music ending flowed quietly to an end. After Jiang Yuan himself was freed from the emotion of the song, the audience was also freed from the aftertaste of the song.
Then waves of applause rang out at the scene.
According to many fans' evaluation of Jiang Yuan's live show, most fans agree that the version performed by Jiang Yuan at the concert and the version performed for the first time are generally the most effective.
One is because the concert equipment is very effective, and the other is that Jiang Yuan will go all out every time he sings a song for the first time.
By superimposing the two buffs, everyone can easily figure out the new song Jiang Yuan sang at the concert, which is usually the most god-like version.
As for this version of "Riding a White Horse," everyone actually heard it live.
After the applause ended, the audience was filled with shouts of admiration and admiration, and there was a lot of wow-factor for a while.
"Damn it, it sounds so good!"
"It's absolutely amazing. When I played the last chorus, I had goosebumps all over my body!!"
"The chorus of the chorus is in the Hokkien dialect. When I suddenly sang it, I immediately understood what it means to listen to the fairy music!"
"The top, it's so top, I even cried when I sang!"
"The new song is amazing, it is indeed the god in charge of Chinese style!!"
"How can a song be so exciting and touching?"
"The orchestration of the arrangement is also amazing, and the suona in the middle is just amazing!!"
The fans were chattering for a while. Chen Hai and Li Keshou were sitting in the audience listening to the discussion, and their moods were equally exciting.
This is especially true for Li Keshou.
Chen Hai has been writing music reviews about Jiang Yuan's songs all year round, and he can analyze them from many angles.
But it's different for Li Keshou. This year, Jiang Yuan sang mostly English songs.
English lyrics are not within the scope of his research, so he has not been able to write music reviews related to Jiang Yuan for a long time.
This is why Li Keshou was so excited to find "Chapter 7 of the Night" and review it again when "Sherlock Holmes" was released some time ago.
However, after the song "Riding a White Horse" ended, lovers of Chinese style lyrics and music like Li Keshou seemed to have encountered Tiancai.
If he hadn't been at Jiang Yuan's concert, he would have just shouted "Come on!"
Jiang Yuan couldn't understand the mood of the fans in the audience too concretely.
Everyone was a little excited for a while, but Jiang Yuan didn't speak, but just made a gesture of silence.
When Jiang Yuan performed this action at a concert, it had an effect no less than a banning spell.
The scene that was noisy one second immediately fell silent.
Jiang Yuan nodded with satisfaction, then pointed at the big screen.
The reason why he didn't speak was to maintain the style of this chapter suite. After all, he was wearing such a costume, so Jiang Yuan was still in the setting.
He pointed at the big screen and then threw himself into the performance of the next song.
