If the song "Hard to Break a Ship" wants to be sung in people's hearts and not be regarded as an idle moan, it must come from a big family.
Listening to this song performed by Akina Nakamori, Iwahashi Shinichi suddenly felt that she was now like an experiential actor. But this experience did not come from her own imagination, but from her own life.
"Like an actor."
After listening to the song, Shinichi Iwahashi took off his headphones and expressed his thoughts.
"actor?"
Hearing his comment, Nakamori Akina was a little surprised at first, and then her expression changed a little. The sound engineer Nakata on the side also showed a thoughtful expression.
"It's very visual. It gives me the feeling that instead of listening to the song with my ears, I feel like I'm watching the performance with my eyes." Shinichi Iwahashi explained, "He is also an actor with excellent acting skills."
After this song was released, someone would definitely contact her about her own situation. However, while realizing this, he also understood why Akina Nakamori would choose such a song as the title song of the single.
Although the lyrics seemed to be a portrayal of her own love and touched her heart, but based on this alone, she would never sing such a song emotionally and regardless of her own music career.
After much deliberation, there is only one reason.
"You are challenging yourself." Shinichi Iwahashi said his answer.
I decided to choose this song as the main feature because I used my own love experience and mentality as a blueprint. I integrated my own feelings into the song, just like an experiential actor, making myself the protagonist of the song.
She found a new kind of inspiration from her own unsuccessful love, and chose such a song to sing. Although it contained laments about her own love, it was also an artistic challenge.
Such extreme sorrow, as despair as the waves breaking the boat, can only be expressed by Akina Nakamori at this moment.
That is, even though I am in a hopeless love affair, I am not yet hopeless and still have illusions, so I am able to leave room for artistic processing of this feeling and deliver such a perfect song with a sense of situation.
Akina Nakamori is challenging herself.
It might be appropriate to describe her as having the character of an artist.
Even though she is bound by love and feels embarrassed and doesn't know what to do, she still has an independent side. Her personality has a perseverance that others don't understand.
Iwahashi Shinichi feels that if you only regard this song as "the sad fate of women", you will miss the most important thing, which is what Akina Nakamori wants to convey.
It is the pursuit of stage art.
Topo Star is Topo Star. She should not be regarded as just an ordinary weak woman. Iwahashi Shinichi feels that such Akina Nakamori possesses a powerful charm that ordinary people do not have.
Listening to Shinichi Iwahashi's words, Nakamori Akina felt extremely moved in her heart. At the same time, she also gained a new understanding of Shinichi Iwahashi.
The reason why this person was able to save Okada Yukiko and rekindle her confidence in life and choose a new path was definitely not just because of "gentleness".
It's because this person can understand others and at the same time have empathy for other people's problems, and he can see the fundamental things.
This person can understand her...
Akina Nakamori felt comfortable that she had been understood and cared for, and at the same time, she felt relieved that she had met a confidant.
The image of Shinichi Iwahashi in front of her suddenly became fuller.
He is not the "gentle savior", but a living, intelligent person. He did not save Yukiko with his gentleness, but with his wisdom that penetrates people's hearts.
It was because of his insightful wisdom that he reached out to her just now.
Nakamori Akina's heart was filled with gratitude to him, and she didn't know what to say for a moment.
It was the sound engineer Nakata who spoke first, "That's wonderful, Iwahashi-san."
He did not hesitate to praise Iwahashi Shinichi, "To be honest, when I was making this song, at the beginning, I felt like I didn't know how to start. Nakamori-san has been constantly trying, and many of them sounded perfect to me.
version, but she rejected it, saying it was 'something wrong'. Now it seems that this is the source of that 'something wrong'."
"When I was in the prison cell, I heard her singing, and I had a feeling. My heart was touched, and I felt extremely sad, but I couldn't think of a word to describe this feeling. If you put it like that, I would immediately understand.
come over."
While praising Shinichi Iwahashi, recording engineer Nakata felt distressed and unwilling to think about the source of Nakamori Akina's "experience". He suddenly said to Nakamori Akina: "Nakamori-san, this song must be a big hit.
Just leave your name in the industry!”
Akina Nakamori was startled by the sudden high-spiritedness of sound engineer Nakata.
"yes."
Iwahashi Shinichi also encouraged her, "This is a song that you have poured everything into. If it doesn't get what it deserves, then it will become the biggest mistake and failure. You can't burn yourself like this.
There will be a second time, so you can’t have a song like this again in the future.”
From Iwahashi Shinichi's words, Nakamori Akina could hear not only his appreciation for the song and her, but also his blessing for her.
Singers have to try various styles of music, so it is inevitable to sing tragic songs.
However, I hope that I will not have the chance to sing this tragic song that I have poured my own sorrow into again.
Akina Nakamori felt his simple and considerate care from Shinichi Iwahashi's words.
The two exchanged glances silently without saying anything. Nakamori Akina looked into his eyes and nodded, "Yes, Iwahashi-san."
thank you.
As if making a solemn agreement.
"However," Recorder Nakata did not notice this warm exchange between the two and continued to talk to Shinichi Iwahashi, "You are really amazing. People with great ears are not considered rare, but the heart can also be so sharp.
It’s really rare... By the way, I haven’t asked for your identity yet?”
"It was an oversight on my part, I didn't introduce myself to you." Shinichi Iwahashi took out his business card and handed it over, "I'm currently producing a single for Warner Pioneer's newcomers."
"I see." Nakata took the business card, "You are trustworthy as a producer. This is not a compliment."
Akina Nakamori listened on the sidelines, feeling happy for Shinichi Iwahashi and feeling from the bottom of her heart that Nakata's words were right.
Iwahashi Shinichi smiled and said, "Thank you."
Then he looked at Akina Nakamori and said, "Is your recording about to start? After interrupting you for so long, it's almost time for me to say goodbye."
"Yeah." Nakamori Akina nodded.
"See you next time..." she said to Shinichi Iwahashi.
