However, this video, which became popular because of its popularity abroad, was actually first released in China.

After Wu Lan took the video, she asked Bao Wenxiao to edit it, and then sent it out through Qianyu Media's official accounts on various platforms.

But just like the video of Dai Yuni singing "So Many People in This World", except for her fans who were a little excited, other netizens didn't pay much attention to it, and the video of Yang Qian singing English songs did not. Can cause too many waves.

Is this "Singin' in the Rain" bad?
Obviously not, even if the people who saw it were not excited and praised, they would leave with the corners of their mouths raised.

However, it is an English song after all.

In addition, when this video was released, Yang Qian's children's song album was being hotly discussed, and those who liked it and those who didn't like it were arguing, so naturally there was no way to get into the public's attention.

It cannot be said that there is no such thing at all. Some netizens also criticized Yang Qian for being foreign and foreign and misleading children because of the English lyrics of "Little Leaping Frog", as if writing nursery rhymes and not promoting Chinese culture is a sinner.
The starting point of this point of view is good. We should really pay more attention to our traditional culture, dig out more treasures from it, and then keep pace with the times and innovate, so that our children can also like traditional culture and don’t forget our roots. where!
But it would be meaningless if this initiative is turned into a criminal evidence of Shanggang’s launch.

"Singing in the rain" didn't get much response in China at first, but after it was synchronized to external video sites and social media, it won the love of many foreign netizens who love music.

After all, Yang Qian is still popular abroad, and everyone has not forgotten who he is.

The beauty and poetry of "Singing in the rain" can be fully understood by English-speaking audiences.

"I'm laughing at clouds,

So dark up above,

The sun's in my heart,

And I'm ready for love"

(Translation: I laugh at the clouds, they're so dark on them, but the sun is in my heart, and I'm ready for love!)

Yes, such lyrics really give people the feeling that the poet's love poems are interpreted with a beautiful melody.

"The golden willows by the river,
the bride in the sunset;
Shadows in the waves,

Ripples in my heart. "

Recalling the poems in Xu Zhimo's "Farewell to Cambridge", Yang Qian's singing in English, isn't it as poetic and beautiful as it is?
What's more, the ingenious humor of "laughing at the dark clouds" in English can also make foreign audiences smile knowingly!

These days, everyone is an Internet celebrity, even abroad.

Yang Qian just sat in front of the rainy floor-to-ceiling windows and played and sang, while the foreign Internet celebrities played directly.

Some sang in the rain with a guitar or ukulele in their hands, and some pushed the piano outdoors and sang while playing the piano in the rain.

The piano was drenched by the rain, so I don't know if the music played really well, but the price they paid for making a video like this is not small.

"Singin' in the Rain", how can we do it without a dance in the rain?

Yang Qian just dialed a few words, and Ouyang Xiaoqing understood how to dance!

When she came to Shanghai, Yang Shihan rented a studio for her, made a rainy street scene, and then Ouyang Xiaoqing, who was wearing a cold and sassy black suit, performed a casual and free dance.

Although the movements are designed by herself, which can reflect the softness and flexibility of women better than the original version, the interpretation of the happy deer-like mood of urban beauties who have just met love in the dance is still done vividly!

Of course, the music in the background is not sung by Ouyang Xiaoqing, it is still Yang Qian’s voice, but this time Yang Qian went to the recording studio to re-record the song.
