Great Artist

If Claire Days were to choose, he would absolutely never let "Catalyst" and "Desperate ld be released together!

This cannibalism is definitely a huge blow to single sales. You know, whether it's Evan Bell or Linkin Park, their singles are very competitive in terms of sales. But now, the two songs are released together, which makes it a direct competitor, which is not good news for sales.

But Evan Bell and Linkin Park, both of them don't care about it, not to mention Evan Bell is such a full-fledged person, Claire Dyce can't break his arm, so he can only risk the two songs together Issued. The only good thing is that the two songs are very different in style, "Catalyst" is rock, "Desperate" is pop, can only pray that listeners will not be affected, and both singles are purchased together.

For music critics, the release of two singles together does not have much impact. All they need to do is listen to one more song and write one more music review. What's more, these two songs are very high-quality works. As a music critic, it is a very pleasant thing to be able to enjoy good music.

Although "Desperate" has already been released on the album "Two", this time it was released as a single and attracted the attention of many music critics. Among them, Stephanie Palmer highly praised the song "Despite Everything", and she felt the emotion brought by this song at the scene.

Stephanie-Pamore's comments on "Rotation" said, "The completion of this song is no less than that of 'Ent', 'Top' and other songs. And it is also perfect in terms of emotional expression. In addition, Stephanie Palmer also said that the song "Desperate" will replace "Don't Leave and "Stubborn" as Evan Bell's song mí's favorite song.

The same is true. Now like Evan Bell's song mí will "desperate" as their theme song. Not only because this song sings positive sunshine, but also because this song has become the best bridge between Evan Bell and song mí. Everyone shouted "we" and stood beside Evan Bell. "Together against the world", this slogan really makes people's blood boil.

In addition, "Rock", "The New York Times" and other media also think. "Desperate" became another discovery on the album "Two". Although everyone has heard the entire album before. All agree that the ten songs in the album can be said to be high-quality classics, and they have the level of title songs on any album. However, under the dazzling light of "Sky Light", and there were too many topics that could be discussed at the time of the "Second" release, "Despite Everything" was still underestimated. This time, after it was released as a single, music critics gave it extremely high praise.

Sixteen media gave "Desperate" a high score of 9 points. Although it is not as good as the average score of "Tianguang" and "Top", it is still a classic song.

"Desperate" attracts media attention. The main reason is that this song aroused resonance among the songs, and it became the best annotation for Evan Bell's special stage that night. So, not much attention to the song itself. It is more focused on touching scenes such as "thousands of people cry collectively".

Professional music critics put more energy on the "catalyst", and this is a brand new song. Second, this is a collaboration between two classic rockers.

Adam Roy wrote in his review for "Rolling Stone", "The second collaboration between Evan Bell and Linkin Park still collided with amazing sparks. Just like the title of the song, the little sparks contained in the melody, Through the voices of the two singers, it enters our brains along the ears, and then releases endless energy in our minds, which makes people fascinated."

In addition, Adam Roy also agreed with the position of the response to the song "Catalyst", "Evan Bell and Linkin Park's music are like this, they can hide their emotions under each note, Quietly moved my heart. The rebuke of the crimes represented by guns, ammunition, and war in this song was completely ignited and burned by the scorching sun. The sentence 'Let me sublimate and set me free' successfully relieved the negative emotions in everyone's heart. It all exploded."

Finally, Adam Roy ended his comment with the sentence "The cooperation between the two most powerful singers in the 21st century burst out with amazing chemical effects, making people applaud." Obviously, Adam Roy also likes the song "Catalyst" very much.

In addition, Adam Roy also commented on some phenomena in his column, "From the beginning of 'just a dream' to the 'reckless' and 'catalyst' that have appeared in front of us, Evan Bell's amazing musical talent has repeatedly It's amazing, but more importantly, he is always able to cut into life from all angles, resonate with him, and create sales miracles while insisting on his own personality. This is the real phenomenon."

There are countless people who can create excellent music, but there are not many people who can make the audience buy their music. To put it simply, there are not many musicians who can win word of mouth with quality and at the same time win the hearts of listeners and get sales.

Suddenly, everyone found out that Evan Bell's number one single has reached double digits, and his "two" album has six number one singles, not to mention his two albums, ten. The sales of several singles have been miraculous. Looking back at the evaluation of Evan Bell's music by professional music critics such as Adam Roy, we can know that Evan Bell's music has accumulated achievements in both word of mouth and sales. No wonder Adam Roy sighed so much, calling it a "phenomenon".

There are obviously many more music reviews for "Catalyst" than "Desperate". Thirty-four media outlets have posted reviews, including "Rotation", "Q Magazine", "Mixer", "URB", " Magazines such as The Sound of Music have made "Catalyst" their most-released single since 2003, surpassing even "Top", which was released earlier in the year. It can be seen that everyone's praise for the second cooperation between Evan Bell and Linkin Park.

With that momentum, "Catalyst" and "Desperate" were released at the same time, and they were bound to have a battle on the singles charts: as Claire Days had an ominous foreboding.

In the first week of its release, "Desperate" relied on the huge momentum of Evan Bell song mí, and won 470,000 sales in the first week. Although it is far from "Tianguang" and "Top", it is still easy to disdain the crowd. , which topped the Billboard singles chart. Although "Catalyst" has a strong momentum, it is slightly inferior in explosive power. With sales of 330,000, it ranks second on the Billboard singles chart.

The same singer's two singles were aired first and second in the first week of release, which also became a new record in Billboard history. More importantly, "Desperate" became the seventh number one single from the album "Two", further making history.

You must know that there are not many singles that can be released individually for the ten songs of an album. The "One" album only released six songs alone, which is not easy. Now, the album "Two" has gone a step further, with seven songs ** released as a single, and the first song won the No. 1 spot on the Billboard, which is definitely an outstanding achievement.

As a result, the media also began to care about the remaining three songs of the "two" album, discussing whether these three songs have the possibility of releasing singles, and if they are released, whether they can win the championship. In the history of music, every step of Evan Bell is following history and even making history.

At the same time as the release of "Desperate", the MV was also released. This time the MV was shot by a special director. The MV is very simple. Evan Bell, who plays the piano quietly under the spotlight on the stage, is lonely and stubborn. Along with the music, in the endless darkness around, lights began to light up. When the song ends, all the lights are connected together, and the whole world is illuminated into daylight.

This MV was regarded as perfunctory and lack of sincerity in the comments of the outside world. But in the eyes of Gemí, it is the most profound embodiment of the theme of this song. Every ray of light in the dark world is the support of Zhiyin. When all the lights are on, the world that only belongs to Evan Bell, and Evan Bell join hands to fight against the camp of the whole world. come out. This MV may be very concise and clear~www.readwn.com~, but it is of great significance to song mí. Not to mention that Evan Bell also showed his outstanding piano skills in it, and those slender fingers left a deep impression on countless people.

The cover of the single "Despite Everything" also continued the style of the MV. On the black-based cover, Evan Bell outlined a candlelight with a pencil sketch, and the dim yellow warm light opened up a world in the darkness. And the title of the song "Desperate for Everything ld is still flamboyant, and in the black color, the white color is used as the line to outline the chic graphics. It's just that in the middle of the word "we", two cute little people are also drawn, standing side by side, making people smile.

Different from the well-prepared "Desperate", "Catalyst" is just a planned single. Like last year's "Never Walk Alone", this single did not shoot an MV, but was paid for download on iTunes. But even so, the sales of "Catalyst" still showed extremely strong competitiveness, not only pressing "Desperate" to win the number one on the iTunes download chart, but also maintaining strong competition on the Billboard singles chart. force.

From this point of view, "desperate" and "catalyst" really are one's own family fighting one's own family, forming a fierce competition.
