Perfect Life

Vol 5 Chapter 88: Child's singing

In the outskirts of Jinan Prefecture, on the road leading to the districts and counties below, vehicles speeded. ┡ΔFiction %*

Whether the driver is a veteran or a passenger sitting in the front passenger seat, they are actually just ordinary fans, who only care about whether the song is good or not.

But the exception is that when a certain song is particularly good, it will make ordinary fans like him especially like it, but when they can't think of any more awesome words to praise, they will especially like to have experts who are more expert than themselves. Or an expert, you can comment and praise from a more professional perspective or a higher perspective, in order to satisfy a certain ritual-like sense of identity deep in your heart.

Moreover, such as music, art, literature, film, TV series, opera, dance, architecture, etc., almost all industries related to "creation" basically have this phenomenon.

And in fact, there are not many people who have this kind of psychology - if a certain work of art is really good enough to arouse the resonance of most people's hearts!

And obviously, "Dream Back to the Tang Dynasty" did this.

So at this moment, in fact, many ordinary fans who turned on the radio and listened to this show did not feel bored and impatient in the face of such a purely chat-style show. On the contrary, many people did not choose to change channels, and It was listened to with gusto.

And while listening, I couldn't help but think: "Look! I'll just say it, this song is awesome!"

At this time, in the radio program, the host Mina and Zhou Zhipeng's dialogue continued.

Especially Zhou Zhipeng, at this time, he was talking freely, "The musical elements contained in albums like "Dream Back to the Tang Dynasty" are very many and very rich! Generally speaking, our singers, or producers People, in order to ensure the unity of the content and style of an album, they basically have no courage to do so! What do other people do? That is, I will choose one or two works in an album and mix in some of them. Fresh music elements, so that on the basis of maintaining their own style, they can be moderately broadened. Why? Because the play is too big, the styles added are too many, too strong, few people can hold it! Can't play! , it will show timidity, it will be shameful! It seems that your level is not enough!"

"But Li Qian is obviously not like this, he has never been like this. Just like in the past, we can now know that the "Sister and Sister Stand Up" of the Five Elements of the Year should be his real first album as a producer. At that time, when he was just a fledgling, he dared to mix many styles and elements into one album! So the Wuxing Wusu at that time was under his training, and within one album, there was a lot of explosiveness. The songs and dances and electronic dance music of the song, as well as the lyrical orders like "Farewell", have been regarded as classics to this day! As time goes by, not only has it not lost its color and become outdated, but it has become more and more important! Thinking back carefully , Up to now, the title song like "Sister and Sister Stand Up" was very popular in the past, and even set a precedent for a generation, but now, it is estimated that many fans will think that if it is more durable, it is still "Farewell"! So when it comes to the current piece of "Dream Back to the Tang Dynasty", Li Qian's work is even more powerful and bold!"

"How bold is he? Or how powerful is his ability? Some fans may have felt it, but after all, he is not a professional, so he understands it in his heart, but he can't say it. Here, I can do it for everyone. After analyzing it, I believe that everyone will understand as soon as they hear it: Oh, right! That’s the case! I believe everyone will have such an idea when they hear what I say!”

"Well, all ears!" Mina said.

"What Li Qian has done in this album, ten songs, in terms of major music styles, include electronic dance music, rock and roll, among which there is a heavy metal rock, a heavy metal style that has not been common in Chinese rock for 20 years before. hard rock, and then, of course, pop, pop, that opening arrangement of "The-phoenix", I even heard a heavy symphony! And by the end of the album, what? "My Homeland", an authentic To the way of our own Chinese folk songs that can no longer be authentic!"

"And then, this is not the end. From a small aspect, or a regional factor, fans who are interested in music from all over the world may also be able to hear that this album is not just a multi-category album. The problem is, it also incorporates a lot of music and culture from all over the world! For example, "net,", ah, come on Jimmy, right? I believe that many fans will feel a little strange and familiar after listening to it for half a minute. There are a lot of elements of Indian dance music, and a lot of elements of electronic dance music that are currently popular abroad, that is, European and American music circles!"

"Oh... yes, yes! Indian style!"

"Yeah! For example, "e-i11-rock-you" and "e-are-the-nets", although these two works don't sound like the same thing, but in fact, if you listen to more European and American rock, you will Will now, these two songs are pure European rock in the 1980s! Very retro, but very flavorful! To be specific, the most popular insect band in the UK in the 1970s and 1980s, you put these two songs on them In the album of that year, there was absolutely no violation of harmony, and it was perfectly integrated! Moreover, it was also the pinnacle of the album of such a rock master!"

"Oh, that's it! Then I'll have to find some more albums from the Insect Band and play it for everyone. Let's listen and feel the sense of integration that Professor Zhou said."

"Well, of course, there is "The-cup-of-1ive", what is this? Typical Latin dance music! And the Latin style of this song, put it on the American Latin superstars, and their works In comparison, I dare say, they are not inferior!"

Talking and talking, Professor Zhou Zhipeng talked freely from the beginning, and the more he talked, the more excited he became, but he could tell from his tone that he was talking about this matter very seriously.

His tone and seriousness make everyone who is listening to this show clearly feel that he is very serious in expressing his inner worship for these songs and this album.

"Also, the song "aka-aka" is very unique. According to the explanation given on the song page of the CD, it is the language of the indigenous people in some African tribes. The translated meaning is probably 'lightning', and The copywriting is said to be written by Li Qian himself. It seems that he prefers to call the Chinese name of the song "China Moment", but the name of it, "aka-aka" of this song, is very particular! The drums in the rhythm are absolutely African rhythm! The style of the whole song is also full of the unique rhythm of African music for a week! As for "The-phoenix", it has some psychedelic rock style If it appeared in someone else's album, it would definitely be worth a good review, but in the album "Dream Back to the Tang Dynasty", frankly speaking, this kind of small direction is simply not worth mentioning!"

"In fact, if you look back, Indian dance music plus electronic dance music, Latin style, pure Chinese folk songs, plus old-school classical rock, plus heavy metal, we all know that the British like heavy metal the most! There is also an "aka -aka" African music...can you imagine? They put the whole world in one album, ten songs in this mere album!"

At this time, Mina didn't know what to say.

For a while, Zhou Zhipeng's voice was very high-pitched, and he seemed very excited. On the other hand, yes, he also had a faint feeling when he listened to it, but it was not as clear and macroscopic as listening to Professor Zhou Zhipeng's analysis.

After listening to what he said and analyzing it, and thinking back on it, it seems that I can't find anything to refute!

It seems to have to admit that this album is unusually powerful and unusual!

As Professor Zhou Zhipeng said earlier, "This is a great album!"

At this time, the whole show almost turned into Zhou Zhipeng's own talk show.

He continued to say, "In fact, is it easy to achieve this approach of integrating many musical styles? It's easy to achieve, it's a big deal to sing one style! But in this case of Li Qian and the Four Beauties Before an album, no one dared to do it, at least I haven't heard any album dare to do it like this! Why? I'm afraid of chaos! To do this, first, it requires you to make every style unique. Do it well, first of all, it is difficult, second, you have done so many styles, all are very good, but you, a singer and a band, give the singing soul of this album, and you must be able to control these styles. Unique work!"

"These two points, any point, can wipe out more than 99% of the singers and bands in the world! It's hard to be perfect for the remaining 1%! But now, in my opinion, this piece of "Dream Back to the Tang Dynasty" is close to being perfect!"

"Oh……"

"And what impresses me in particular? I mean this album, what impresses me in this album is that they have mastered so many styles with ease and made wonderful creations and interpretations. In the end, it was still neatly put away, and in the end, all these creations, these great attempts, these shocking breakthroughs, in the end, turned into a patriotic heart!"

"Ah..."My Motherland"!"

"Yes, "My Motherland"!"

Zhou Zhipeng sighed with emotion, "After so many hustle and bustle in the front, so many happy shuttles between various musical styles, and brought so many fresh or classic music creations, in the end, they returned to a clean and tidy world. At first, a pure patriotic heart! And, I remember you mentioned it just now, saying that it was the first time you heard Li Qian look like that and sing with that kind of voice, right?  … I can tell You, I was already shocked when I recorded this song! In other words, I am not surprised that Li Qian can write a pure national style and folk song like "My Motherland", but he put k He set it so high, and he said he wanted to sing by himself, not for Liao Liao or He Runqing, I was horrified at the time!"

"The k of that song is very high, I remember it was so-h? Anyway, it would be more difficult to sing a female voice. Liao Liao's voice is top-notch. I originally thought that the song was written for her. That's not a big problem, but later, Li Qian said that he wanted to sing it himself. Then, we recorded that song about thirty-seven or eight times! Thirty-seven or eight times! Let's just say, as long as the rehearsal is good, the four beauties Bands can usually record songs in about ten times, but that song has been recorded thirty-seven or eight times, nearly forty times, which is very rare!"

"We all know that Li Qian usually sings, and the most commonly used part is actually his alto. His alto is very nice, very mellow and clear. It's not that he can't sing high notes, but he sings too high. Now, the stability of the voice, the degree of beauty, etc. ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ will be much worse. Some of his voices... Hehe, I'm not afraid to offend him. Some of his voice lines and some vocal ranges are actually very unpleasant. of!"

"Of course, the reason why "My Motherland" was recorded so many times before it was completed. There were many times in the front where it was easy to sing and break, but when it came to the back, it was actually a little out of control emotionally. In the end, it is the version that is finally presented to you. Go back and listen carefully. In the last B segment, his voice is a little floating and a little too sharp. This is a pure technical error, or in other words, the sound is not enough. control!"

"However, I want to say that technically and singing skills, this song may only get seven points, ten points, seven points. Compared with those songs that Li Qian used to control the alto-based song, There is also a gap in its quality, but Li Qian's emotional investment when singing this song, the roundness and emotional explosiveness it brings to the whole song, are all his previous works, which cannot be achieved. It's on a par! The song "Dream Back to Tang Dynasty" is also very powerful, but it is only half of "My Motherland" at best!"

"An incomparably clean folk song, Li Qian expresses it in a place that is completely out of his own vocal range, but he interprets the strong, yet natural patriotism to the fullest!"

"I want to say that although there have been countless patriotic songs in China for so many years, this song will definitely go down in history! It will definitely become an unsurpassed classic! Maybe one day, this song will be replaced by a soprano. When a singer sings, it will technically interpret it more smoothly, freely and mellowly. However, I believe that even decades later, this song will leave the deepest impression on us. It must be the version sung by Li Qian. , those subtle tremors in those voices, those sincere purity, and the singing of a child!"
