Looking at the countless cheering and cheering audience below the stage, Shi Gang, the lead singer of Wednesday Band, was filled with excitement.
For more than ten years, the fate of him and the Wednesday band can be described as ups and downs. When he became famous after singing in 72h, he joined Gem Records to release records. He once thought he was on a smooth road to stardom.
However, the many conflicts within the band and with the contract company consumed too much of Shi Gang's energy, so he finally had to take several members to move south, and he has since stayed away from the mainstream circle.
However, the thought of returning to the capital was always in Shi Gang's heart.
It's just a comeback. He must come back in glory and make the Wednesday band's name famous again in the pop music world!
Now Shi Gang has achieved half of his goal. The two original new songs have undoubtedly been recognized by the audience, and their applause is the best proof.
He couldn't help but clenched his fists, bowed to thank him and led the players off the stage.
But Shi Gang didn't go far, he stood at the bottom of the steps.
Because he knew that the person singing next was Lu Chen, a very popular star in the music scene!
The first time Shi Gang heard Lu Chen's name was in July last year, when a new singer came to the bar where he sang. The first song he sang in his first performance was called "In Spring".
Shi Gang still remembers his mood when he heard "In Spring" for the first time. He felt numb all over, the blood in his body rushed to the top of his head, and he was so excited that he wanted to cry.
This song is so well written!
The author of this song is none other than Lu Chen, a very young singer-songwriter.
Later, he gradually learned about many of Lu Chen's works, including Lu Chen's album "My Deskmate".
Shi Gang admired Lu Chen's creative talent very much. After knowing that Lu Chen would also participate in 72h and appear together with him, he felt excited!
A singer must challenge himself and his opponents in order to continue to improve.
The most important thing is that Shi Gang is very confident in his own work. He believes that the Wednesday band that he has rebuilt will not lose to anyone.
On the contrary, he was looking forward to Lu Chen's appearance and couldn't wait to see what new work the latter would come up with.
Folk music? Or light rock? Or something else?
If he can beat Lu Chen on this stage, then his return with the Wednesday Band will be the most perfect!
Just when Shi Gang was confused, Lu Chen led the Nirvana band onto the big stage.
All eyes were focused on him.
The arrangement on the first day of the 72h Music Festival is a bit special. During this time period in the evening, Liao Jia, Wednesday Band and Lu Chen were arranged to appear consecutively, which not only created a climax atmosphere, but also allowed the audience to naturally make an intuitive comparison between the three.
Liao Jia's singing was wonderful, and his ability was worthy of his reputation.
What the band brought on Wednesday was a surprise, a highlight of the first day's performance, and their original compositions were of high quality.
So what will Lu Chen, who has just appeared, bring to the audience?
Today's audience's appetite has been greatly increased. Although Lu Chen is very famous and has a reputation as a musical talent, he may not necessarily have a wonderful performance.
There are not just one or two celebrities who lost face and fell into disrepute at 72h!
The expectations and doubts of the audience invisibly condensed into a huge pressure, which was exerted on Lu Chen.
Many of the fans who came to 72h were born in the 1960s and 1970s. Some of them did not like Lu Chen and thought that he was not much different from the so-called young talents in the entertainment industry nowadays.
Speaking of which, this impression is largely caused by "Blue Life and Death". Even if you have not watched this popular TV series, you will inevitably see Lu Chen's name in entertainment news and online topics.
In addition, Lu Chen and Filia Chen's sister-brother relationship has been rumored recently, so some people associate him with the idol star, ignoring that he is a star in "Spring", "Fly Higher" and other works
The original creator of.
So if Lu Chen didn't perform well on the spot, someone would definitely be gloating about his misfortune!
72h is a world of powerful people.
Lu Chen felt the pressure from the challengers and the audience, and he was fearless.
Lu Chen is standing here today, not to prove anything to others or show off anything, but to realize the dream he once had. He has no urgency to become famous, and he does not need to challenge anyone. There is really no pressure.
"Good evening everyone, I am Lu Chen"
Facing the microphone, Lu Chen first made a brief introduction: "The people with me are the Nirvana band."
Wang Jing and others stood up to salute, and there was sparse applause from below the stage.
No one had heard of the band's name, and the applause was purely polite.
There were also people screaming that they were Lu Chen’s crazy fans.
Lu Chen didn't care and continued: "The first piece I bring to you today is called"
"Free as the wind!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the intro played by the bass suddenly sounded and was transmitted to everyone's ears through six pairs of high-quality outdoor speakers arranged at the scene.
The next moment, the fierce drumbeats hit people's eardrums, making people's blood boil!
"I am as free as the wind,
Just like your tenderness cannot be saved.
You push away my outstretched hands,
You better go and don't look back,
The endless longing for drifting freedom,
Bear all the vicissitudes of life alone.
I offer you tenderness and you refuse to accept it,
I give you the real feeling of my hands,
I give you the long memory of freedom,
I give you everything but can't stop.
I am as free as the wind!
…”
As one of the most watched singers at this year's 72h, what kind of works Lu Chen will come up with has always been one of the hot topics in the small circle. Many people think that he will sing already famous works.
This is the safest approach. After all, a person's inspiration is always limited. No singer-songwriter can guarantee that his or her works will be outstanding. If he puts on a new work but does not get the approval of the fans, then for Lu Chen
The rising reputation was undoubtedly a blow.
There is no shame in singing your own original old songs, it is safe enough. You must know that 72h fans are very picky.
Lu Chen solved the suspense in many people's minds with a brand new work!
The name of the song is "Free as the Wind".
The lyrics are simple and straightforward, without any profound or complicated connotations or metaphors. Even if there are no lyrics prompts on the background screen, anyone can understand them clearly. This is Lu Chen's consistent characteristic in light rock works.
And the melody is still so wonderful!
But in terms of style, "Free Like the Wind" is not as profound as "In Spring", different from the passionate passion of "Fly Higher", and not as lonely and distant as "Blue Lotus".
This song is uninhibited, uninhibited deep into the bones! ——
