This star wants to retire - Chapter 8
Ning Dan has done too many music variety shows, and she is a director with aesthetic taste.
However, as a director, she has a longer-term vision.
Her eyes are shining, not just because Luo Mo’s performance so far seems to be good.
It’s also because she has a set of ideas in her mind that seem to be worth trying out.
If it works, she can teach all her colleagues in the industry a lesson.
……..On
the stage, Luo Mo, who finished playing the prelude, finally sang under the attention of the crowd.
“[Walking in the wind, the sun is suddenly so gentle today, the gentleness
of the sky and the gentleness of the earth are like you holding me,
and then I find that you have changed. In the future,
if it’s cold, how should I spend it.]”
The melodious singing lingered in the hall for a long time.
This song is a very popular song on the earth, and it is also very popular.
There is no need to say how popular the Mayday band is, and the concerts are always full.
From the concert data, from 2017 to 2019, the cumulative box office of Mayday’s concerts ranked second in the country, second only to Jay Chou, and only a little bit behind.
You know, concerts can really show a singer’s real popularity. Some singers seem to be very popular, but they are just hot topics and have no popular works. The concert tickets are not sold at all.
For Mayday, concert tickets are hard to get…
In 2020, on the last day of May, due to the epidemic, Mayday held an online concert, and the number of viewers was – 40 million!
As for the song “Gentleness”, it is often a special part of the concert.
At this moment, the camera swept across the five mentors and captured their reactions.
Wei Ran nodded when the first lyric came out.
“Okay!” Wei Ran began to listen carefully and read the lyrics carefully.
To be honest, so far, the lyrics can only be considered mediocre.
He didn’t rush to read it, he preferred the feeling of listening and watching.
In his opinion, there was no need for him to have such strict requirements for the lyrics and music of a trainee.
Even if the lyrics of the whole song are ordinary and have no highlights, as long as the lyrics and the music are unified in terms of emotions and people can clearly feel the emotions conveyed by the song, it is considered a success.
He looked up at Luo Mo, with an undisguised strong interest in his eyes.
This close-up will definitely be taken.
As for the rap instructor Li Ge sitting next to him, he was undoubtedly more anxious than Wei Ran.
He had read all the lyrics, then bumped Wei Ran with his elbow, picked up the lyrics and pointed to a certain sentence.
Wei Ran shook him off and motioned him to stop arguing.
The two of them were already familiar with each other, so this kind of fight scene would definitely not be edited.
In other words, even if Luo Mo’s song was rubbish, the editor would not give him a “one cut plum” for this kind of interesting fight scene.
The camera continued to sweep over and began to sweep towards Shen Yinuo and Jiang Ningxi.
Shen Yinuo was already holding his cheeks with both hands, listening carefully.
Her feelings were still simple and rough-it sounds good, really good!
This made her feel that the trainees in her own company were really not good enough.
“How do you recruit people?” the company’s eldest lady thought.
At this time, she couldn’t help but take another look at Luo Mo’s information.
The information clearly stated – [Company: None. ]
“Oh, I met a little baby, hehe!” Shen Yinuo’s mind began to become active.
She turned her head to look at Jiang Ningxi, wanting to give her teammates who had been with her day and night a tacit look.
But she was surprised to find that Jiang Ningxi was stunned.
To be precise, she was too focused.
Her eyes were completely focused on Luo Mo, and she could be said to be fully focused.
“Hey, this song is so killer for her?” Shen Yinuo was a little surprised.
She didn’t know that if there was anyone in the world who was most touched by Luo Mo singing “Gentleness”, it would definitely be Jiang Ningxi!
The camera continued to scan and fixed on Xu Chujing’s face sitting in the center.
She nodded slightly.
This is undoubtedly a recognition!
This made Ning Dan in the backstage almost certain that the quality of this song is absolutely superior!
The double affirmation of Xu Chujing and Wei Ran is enough to demonstrate its level.
In fact, what surprised everyone the most was Luo Mo’s singing.
To put it simply, there is a sense of story in his singing.
He has great singing skills!
In a sense, when performing on stage, songs that are more exciting are advantageous.
Just get excited! Just get excited!
If you want to sing a quiet song, the transmission of emotions is particularly important.
Luo Mo knows this.
This is the same as writing an article, just like some sentences that obviously do not have gorgeous words and are obviously not majestic, but they can stir people’s hearts.
For example, the particularly classic sentence in “Xiang Ji Xuan Zhi” [There is a loquat tree in the courtyard, which was planted by my wife in the year of her death. Now it is tall and majestic. ]
A gentle pluck of the heartstrings is enough.
From the perspective of singing skills, Luo Mo feels that he can do better.
After all, the two souls have just merged, and they still need to adapt and practice in terms of skills.
So his current focus is on emotions.
Luo Mo approached the microphone and continued to sing.
“【The scenery on the horizon and I beside you are not in your eyes,
I never understand what is hidden in your eyes.
It doesn’t matter, your world is yours,
not disturbing you is my gentleness.】”
When the last line of the lyrics came out, it was amazing!
Wei Ran knew why Li Ge pushed him.
“The finishing touch! This line is the finishing touch of the whole song so far!”
So, he raised his hand and pushed Li Ge hard.
I want to push back!
From a professional perspective, asking himself, Wei Ran didn’t expect at first that the angle of singing this song called “Tenderness” would be so special.
This song is quite unique!
According to conventional thinking, gentleness is just singing some clichés.
But this song is different.
Wei Ran had been waiting from the beginning, waiting for something special in the lyrics.
Although he didn’t know what he was expecting, he had undoubtedly waited for it!
“Not disturbing is my gentleness.”
In his opinion, in addition to the special entry point, the emotions revealed in this sentence are also advanced enough!
Love songs focus on the word love.
The gentleness and not disturbing in this, have you let it go in your heart? Have you let go of that person?
Of course not!
Some songs can’t stand careful thinking, and can’t stand listening to them in a certain environment.
“Tenderness” is it!
When you delete all the contact information of a person, but can’t forget him, listening to this song again is simply self-abuse.
But in fact, many people love self-abuse.
The sadder you are, the more you have to listen to this kind of song.
Especially in this song, there is a strong sense of fulfillment.
I won’t disturb you, I will fulfill you.
If this is what you want, then give it to you, and I will disappear!
“This lyrics, this technique, advanced!” Wei Ran almost clapped his hands in admiration.
He wanted to make eye contact with Li Ge, but as soon as he turned his head and their eyes met, he turned back.
Li Ge, a well-known rapper with a high level of confrontation, has released a large number of diss songs. He is good at releasing songs to criticize others, and he has almost never lost.
The reason why he can appear on variety shows normally is mainly because his songs do not use dirty words to curse people.
People like this…
“He knows nothing about “Gentleness”!” Wei Ran said in his heart.
Li Ge was stunned for a moment when he saw his good friend’s psychedelic operation.
And what made people even more confused was yet to come.
Luo Mo’s fingers were seen swiping across the piano, and after playing a series of notes, he stood up and bowed.
“No more!”
“No more!”
In fact, the lyrics in their hands also ended here.
“Where is the chorus? Where is the chorus of this song?” Wei Ran couldn’t help but asked directly.
From a structural point of view, the song obviously has not yet reached the chorus part, which is what everyone often calls the climax.
This is incomplete!
Luo Mo shook his head and said, “No more, it’s only finished here.”
He did it on purpose.
The reason is very simple. He knows talent shows too well.
The performance of the first stage is limited in time. When the editor is editing, even if it is a seed contestant, it is impossible to leave a complete stage of more than five minutes.
The program time is limited, and the progress must be caught up.
And “Gentleness” (Returning You Free Version) is six and a half minutes long!
You know, Luo Mo is a single contestant.
Some companies’ contestants come together with several people, and their first stage is a multi-person stage.
Giving them more time is relatively understandable.
Giving one person six and a half minutes to sing is absolutely impossible!
What’s more, he can’t perform the subsequent content of this song with piano.
He needs a band!
[Returning You Free Version] is emotionally progressive, and for this reason, it has become a common version in Mayday concerts.
If he sings the first chorus and then ends, the song will give people a feeling of less flavor.
Because in fact, after the first chorus ends, it is no longer a piano accompaniment, and instruments such as bass and drums will enter directly.
The beginning of the whole song is emotionally progressive, and it starts to get high.
This is a kind of sublimation.
It can be said that “Gentleness” is absolutely indispensable in the god-level performances at Mayday’s concerts.
In this case, it is better to leave people wanting more.
He respects the stage and also respects this song that he likes very much. Wouldn’t it be better to perform a complete and perfect performance in the future when conditions permit?
In fact, even if he changes a song, a song that can be accompanied by piano alone, it is very likely that a part of it will be cut by the editor, and the most complete performance will not be left.
He doesn’t like this.
Instead of doing this, it is better to whet his appetite. What he
wants is that you are left wanting more!
– Short, I am serious.
