Respawn Entertainment: Days of Glory

Chapter 445: I’m old enough to rock and roll, can I still sing?
Inspired by Bian Lang's momentum, the audience in front of the screen felt that they could no longer hold back the pride in their chests.

Especially those UP owners who have seen the scene and now watch the video, after considering Guan Ying's incident, they can better understand the momentum of "swallowing thousands of miles like a tiger" when they listen to this song again.

Especially those music UP owners who are familiar with the history of Chinese rock and roll are even more emotional. They feel that Bian Lang's singing of this song now reflects the feeling of the entire rock music circle and even the entire Chinese music circle.

Doesn't "I think of the old days when we were fighting with each other" refers to the time when rock music was most popular? At that time, rock music was of flesh and blood, and it was the most cutting-edge existence that could represent the thoughts and fashions of young people.

There was also the Chinese music scene in its heyday, with gods from all walks of life fighting each other to show off their magical powers, and the entire music scene showed a prosperous scene.

But look at it now, not to mention rock music. The pop music market is getting bigger and bigger, but there are fewer and fewer new good works.

Songs in the past had decades of vitality, but when you sing them now, you still marvel at how powerful the musicians were back then.

But look now, Bian Lang's 30-year-old Chinese song "No Place to Confronted" can dominate the annual rankings in half a year. It is still because of the lack of a leading distribution channel like Goose Dan. Under such circumstances, we can see the decline of the Chinese music scene in recent years.

Looking back at the number one songs before Bian Lang became famous, I am afraid that only the singer's die-hard fans are still talking about them and lamenting that they are so good that they are so good.

Even in China, the original earth before Bian Lang traveled through, the music scene was almost the same as this song.

It's not that there are no suitable foreign singers in his circle, but that he knows very well how much Bian Lang loves his family. If Chinese singers can be used, foreign ones will definitely not be given priority...

Therefore, the classic songs of The Cranberries and Nightwish in the song library naturally cannot escape his discernment.

On the contrary, many old songs will hit the top of the charts again and again due to certain special events.

He was also very clear about Bian Lang's expectations for Dong Youbian, but after observing it for a period of time, he made his own judgment on Dong Youbian's strength: "Practice opera for a year or two, and you should be able to reach the level of Bian Lang." The imagined requirement, but proficiency in pharyngeal pronunciation, is not necessarily the case.”

Then he stepped back and started playing the piano face to face with Li Li. The scene turned to Dong Youbian.

Therefore, for his career pursuits and his liking for a series of songs like "Dreams", he began to search for a suitable female singer among the Chinese female singers after coming to China.

"Forty-three years, I still remember it when I look at it... Yangzhou Road is on fire, Yangzhou Road is on fire..."

The tail end of D5 lasted for 5 seconds, and the sharp falsetto seemed to penetrate the ceiling of the entire studio.

Olaf was not too surprised. After joining the Rolling Stones, he and Bian Lang had seriously discussed various future plans. Due to his nationality, he focused more on English songs.

He very much hoped that Bian Lang would take the lead in recording these songs with some emphasis, but Bian Lang seriously refused: "These songs are good, but they are not sung by me. If I don't find someone who is proficient in singing, I will not sing them." The song "Dreams" is at best half-finished by the female vocalist who can sing it; without a gothic voice that can sing opera, the song "I Want My Tears Back" wouldn't have much flavor."

Amidst the thunderous applause of the audience, Dong You, who was extremely excited, bowed and pressed all the breath accumulated in his chest to his vocal cords, and showed off another high note.

After thinking for a long time, Olaf, who also has a perfect pursuit of music, agreed and firmly supported Bian Lang's idea.

Anything that can be sung for more than half a year is considered good. The fate of many new songs is nothing more than flashing on the charts and then turning into dust that fills the song library.

After being stunned for a second, Liu Ziyang said playfully: "Guo Sichu can't sing so high!"

In the end, it may be difficult for practitioners involved to tell you exactly why!

As soon as the words came out of my mouth, I heard the five overlapping sets of high notes from Bian Lang and Dong Youbian in the video singing an earth-shattering sentence: "Ah!!!"

At this time, he was watching this segment with Liu Ziyang. Recalling his thoughts at that time, he suddenly asked: "Liu, what do you think of Guo Sichu as a singer?"

Dong Youbian also performed at 120% of her usual performance. The female folk singer with a pure face, who usually looked at her with a pure face, burst out with the momentum and level of a female rock vocalist when filled with various emotions.

Liu Ziyang, who was backstage at the time, was amazed when he heard it: "I never thought that after being forced by Bian Lang, there would be more songs with the name Dong Youbian in the Chinese rock circle in the future!"

At this time on the stage, Bian Lang continued to play the guitar, and under the protection of the two guitarists, he continued to sing: "Yuan Jia hastily, seal the wolf and live in Xu... win in a hurry, look north in a hurry..."

Then I heard Bian Lang say into the microphone: "Singer Dong Youbian!"

At this moment, I feel as satisfied as a general who rose to power through his direct lineage and finally won the recognition of the supreme commander and soldiers based on his strength.

She was frantically testing on the edge of HIghC, but when Bian Lang heard it in her heart, she also felt some unexplainable meaning.

But when Bian Lang read this paragraph again, Chen Shuting directly asked the key: "Is this your official announcement? Will it be the same in the future?" She didn't say all the rest, but I believed Bian Lang could understand it.

"That won't work for now. She still has to practice. Her main goals at the moment are to record an album and do vocal training. Just tell Chen Manman this way! Then I'll communicate with her, You Bian..."

As soon as the words fell, Bian Lang on the screen said to the microphone again: "Guitarists sharpen, Strauss!"

Then the two of them put their backs together and started an interlude solo.

Start with a portamento from the 7th to the 17th fret. It sounds like the sound of an airplane's engine when accelerating. You need to take off with everyone on the spot!

The large screen behind the scene was also split into two, revealing the big guns in the hands of the two people.

Strauss, with his blond hair like a waterfall, was not to be outdone. He pulled up the crank and a wave of "air defense sirens" came out. It felt like the air forces on both sides were preparing for war!
The music fans who understood what they heard couldn't help but smile knowingly, and some of them directly applauded:

"This guitar solo is really impossible to practice alone without forming a band!"

"One pushes the aircraft engine, and the other pulls the air defense siren. It's really amazing!"

"After listening to rock music for so many years, this solo piano battle is really rare and can directly pop up the picture." Just as the two were fighting, the original dual screen suddenly split into one.

Bian Lang, who was in the center of the screen, once again threw his electric guitar behind him, took the microphone with one hand, and pointed to the sky with a metal salute with the other hand and shouted: "Yeah..."

Six sets of high-pitched sounds "soared into the sky", and the whistle screamed like a supersonic fighter plane, turning the original confrontation between the two armies into a melee between the three armies.

"Using the human voice as a musical instrument and competing with the electric guitar, there is really no one else in the entire Chinese music scene except the Rolling Stones!" Pan Xiulong's sigh at this moment was the same as that of most Chinese musicians.

There is also a point in explaining why it is a rolling stone and not a wave.

People in the circle know very well that in terms of singing skills, there are not many who can compare with Bian Lang. In terms of guitar skills, there are not many who can compare with the Rolling Stones, but they can still be found. But the only one who can tie these two elements together is the Rolling Stones.

In fact, in the final analysis, Bianlang is still awesome. He is so good that he can also bring together a bunch of equally good musicians. This is his ability.

The rock circle has never been short of amazingly talented bands, but every one of these bands is a genius who refuses to be outdone by others. Therefore, it is the norm in the rock circle that a long-term union must break up, and the story of a long-term separation must inevitably unite is no longer what it used to be. Generally harmonious. As for those that have a beginning and an end, they are even rarer.

Aqua Blue Star is currently a band that was still active in full force during the heyday of rock and roll, but they are basically in name only, or they have simply ceased to show their presence in the underground.

As for the original earth, the only ones that can still perform in the first generation band are Black Panther and the face that is no longer popular. Pain, Mountain Man, Secondhand Rose, etc. are all from behind.

Therefore, whether it is Bian Lang himself or musicians who really want to be good at rock music, they all hope that the Rolling Stones can maintain its long-term and stable performance.

This was probably Bian Lang’s little thought when he chose the name Rolling Stones. After all, the band is still singing 60 years after it was founded, and the 80-year-old Mick Jagger can still lead the band to continue touring the world. Bian Lang still listened to the band before traveling. Said they have a new album to be released at the end of the year...

Musicians from all over the world, as their thoughts flowed, saw Di Li's unique skill of double-tapping strings appear again.

Strauss also showed no weakness. Although he played the strings with one hand, his speed was not inferior at all.

The faces of the guitarists in front of the screen were all flushed. They were so excited that they were cursing in their hearts: "Go to the NM Rolling Stones, how could they get these two people together! How could Bian Lang make this up?" Why can’t I do this kind of solo?”

At this time, Bian Lang also made a change of voice, and he was stunned to sing the six sets of high notes with a rock foundation to give a hint of traditional opera sound.

Compared with the original version of Wu Tong, Bian Lang's performance is undoubtedly better. After all, Wu Tong is already very old, and Bian Lang inherited a "dumb" guitarist. 's throat.

At that time, everyone in the audience was completely confused by this scene. At this time, there were even more confused netizens in front of the screen. One of them was "a thunder on the ground".

Brother Sheng Lei never expected that Bian Lang would give him such a big surprise at the Rolling Stone Station where he had been waiting for all day!
There are no male singers who can sing six sets of high notes, but excluding those high-pitched male singers from the national team, Bian Lang is the most high-quality one he has heard so far!
What is the concept of 6 sets of high notes? In the previous life, the only male singers in the Chinese rock circle who could sing high notes were Ding Wu and Zheng Jun. Even if we look at the entire Chinese music scene, the total amount can only be counted on one hand. But this is still about performance in the recording studio. For those who can sing stably and with high quality in the live performance, Zhang Jingxuan is ranked first, Zhang Geshen was ranked second when he was young, and Fei Chen is ranked third.

As for the others who can sing, they don't have much quality at all. The lead singer of a "rock band" who can sing E6 is even more of a joke...

Bian Lang knew how to pronounce his voice in his previous life, but he was very good at it when he was young. By the time he became somewhat famous, his voice had begun to fall.

The conditions of the original owner in this life are not bad, and after being "mute" for so many years, the function of his voice has not deteriorated much, so there is not much pressure to sing this kind of single tone live.

But to the ears of thunder, it is completely different. In the usual 4 groups and 5 groups, he could basically make a rough guess just by raising his ears. But for Bian Lang's voice today, he could only determine that it was in group 6 without using software identification. As for which one of CDEFGAB it was, he could only let the software accurately identify it.

After singing this line, Bian Lang rested for a beat, and then called out the name of Miss Pipa: "Pipa, Zhao Xiaolu!"

Before he finished speaking, Zhao Xiaolu appeared on the big screen behind him. As his fingers flew, the sound of the pipa gradually became brighter, intertwined with the two guitars.

Then Bian Lang called out the names of Huang Kai, Dayong, Hua Yan and the two suona players. After each had finished their performance, he resumed the rhythm.

Although everyone didn't say it in person at the time, they really admired the band members from the bottom of their hearts. This introduction of band members is not new, but most of them do it between songs, and in this kind of party-type performance, Because of time constraints, you are not allowed to do that.

But Bian Lang not only did it, but also added it to the interlude of a song. The key is that even the three folk musicians who came to do part-time work were not missed. You can meet such a lead singer who is willing to stand up for you. Any musician would be willing to follow.

At this time, the rest of the Rolling Stones were gathered in the rehearsal room and watching. Except for Strauss, who didn't speak the language very well, and didn't express an opinion, the others were shaking their heads and boasting.

Dili: "Look who played this solo, he's so handsome!"

Dayong: "That's because I play the drum steadily..."

Huang Kai: "I..." Before he could finish his words, everyone shouted back: "Stop bragging, not many people in the audience will see you!"

After all the musicians played together for four bars, Bian Langshuo picked up the microphone again, and the two guitarists pulled up the tremolo at the same time, ending the sound with a guitar sound similar to "a horse's cry".

Wait for Bianlang to sing the lyrics again: "It's worth looking back, Buddha... Under the Buddha's Li Temple, there are... a piece of Shencrow shrine drum... It's worth looking back, Buddha... Under the Buddha's Li Temple..."

If you sing this over and over again, those who don’t understand it deeply will only feel burning and dry.

Those who think more deeply, such as those musicians who still care about rock music, feel that Bian Lang's use of ancient words to satirize the present really touches them a lot.

The translation of the original word is: "Back then, there were people offering sacrifices outside Tuoba Tao's palace. Crows pecked at the sacrifices. People were living the social day and only worshiped him as a god..."

The theme here is changed to rock music, which is also a perfect metaphor. The older generation of Chinese rock music was once canonized as gods. Now it is not an exaggeration to say that they are worshiped as gods... but gods are separated from the masses. , no longer has the charm of the past!
Just as the group was feeling emotional, Bian Lang, who had sung it six times, suddenly stopped singing, and the originally methodical musical instrument performance began to turn into an improvised moment where the group of demons danced wildly.

Just after a small suona was played, all the instruments stopped, and Bian Lang was heard to add his final voice: "Who can ask, if I am old enough to rock and roll, can I still sing?"
