The singles released by Evan Bell since his debut, the hand-painted covers and individual interpretations, have become a label for him, and many loyal fans will collect the singles as a commemorative collection.

As early as last year, Evan Bell contributed a manuscript of "just.a.dream" at a charity auction at the University of California, Los Angeles. The manuscript sold for $10,000 that day, becoming the The winner of the auction of the day. But a year later, the manuscript's online estimate has soared to $30,000, an astonishing rate.

Although Evan Bell is not an art student, he is really good at sketching and has been praised by many professionals. In addition, the hand-painted cover of each single has a special meaning, which makes an ordinary single more collectible.

Currently, "Just a Dream", released on April 1, 2001, is no longer in circulation, so it has become difficult to collect the full set of Evan Bell singles. The release of the song will become an opportunity for fans to increase their collections. Maybe years later, Evan Bell's collection of singles can sell for sky-high prices, but there are still no fans willing to sell them.

This time, the single cover of "bad.day" was still hand-painted by Evan Bell, with a red umbrella floating on a brown bench, and raindrops falling from the sky. It's just such a cover, without any characters and without any plot, which makes people puzzled.

However, the mv released together on the first day of the release of "Bad Day" explained the meaning of the cover to fans. This time the MV was filmed by Evan Bell, starring Ryan Gosling and Rachel McAdams. The storyline is that two ordinary urban men and women start to get tired of the boring life day after day. The individual is accidentally connected through an advertising image of the subway.

The storyline of the mv is based on the experience that Evan Bell and Blake Lively met in the Boston subway. In fact, the song "Bad Day" itself was created based on the situation of that day, so Evans Vin-Bell directly shot the life clips into mv. Evan Bell took advantage of the filming gap of "The Notebook" and spent two afternoons filming the video. Ryan Gosling and Rachel McAdams, two friends, were more than willing to help.

The benches and red umbrellas on the single "Bad Day" are actually the backgrounds depicted on the posters at the subway entrance by the two young people in the MV, which obviously have representative meanings.

Although it claims to be a holiday single, the song "Bad Day" has no festive atmosphere in terms of its title, and it is already the eighth single of the album "Two". There is currently no purchase of "Two" "There aren't many people on this album, so the sales of "Bad Day" have been severely tested.

The weak sales of "Bad Day" in the first week also confirmed the media's speculation that the eighth single in an album, coupled with Evan Bell basically did not participate in publicity, it was only based on popularity and word of mouth. Supporting singles, it is difficult for sales to have outstanding results. In the end, "Bad Day" sold only 130,000 copies in its first week and peaked at number 10 on the Billboard Singles Chart. This result is gratifying for newcomers, but it seems a bit "bad" for Evan Bell's first of seven singles to win the championship.

Many media couldn't wait to report with "'Bad Day' experienced a bad seven days in sales, a bad week", Evan Bell's single hit another record is news, but single sales are not good It's even more news, and the media seem to gloat over the misfortune, and they all gather around to watch the excitement.

In fact, the reviews for "Bad Day" were pretty good.

Evan Bell used the soothing piano keyboard sound to express the clear and smooth feeling of the music like gurgling water. Every key sound seems to be jumping gently, swaying the depression and sadness in the lyrics. The arrangement is a little simple, but the important thing is that Evan Bell perfectly combines the piano sound and the lyrics, with a fresh and natural atmosphere, which makes people smile involuntarily. The essence of this song is that Evan Bell sang the life situation of white-collar workers in the city. The lyrics that hit the hearts of working people in their 30s and 40s are enough to make everyone calm down and listen carefully.

"Where is luck when you need it most? You kick the leaves on the ground helplessly, and all the magic is gone. They tell me your blue sky is graying; they tell me your ardent revenge It's getting colder. My friend, I don't want you to give up like this."

In fact, not only the white-collar workers in the workplace, including everyone whose life is not satisfactory, can entertain themselves in the lyrics. Everyone has a time when their mood is low, and low pressure always makes people autistic or irritable or troubled or world-weary. When countless disappointments in life accumulate, it is on the verge of eruption. At this moment, serious people may even feel that there is no hope in life, and become completely depressed to the point of giving up. Teenagers as young as teens, old people in their 60s and 70s, will have moments like this, as the title of the song says, everyone has a "bad day". And this song sings the true meaning of this moment.

"You're on the brink of dangerous depression, you walk past me with a fake smile and coffee. You tell me your life has gone off the rails, falling to pieces every time. Friend, I don't want to You just give up. You have a bad day, you're down, you sing a sad song, and you hope everything will pass. You say you're at a loss, you tell me to stop pretending, you **** You have a bad day and the camera captures your depression. But looking back at it all, you really don't need to care. You have a bad day, you just have a bad day. "

Evan Bell's clear voice told everyone that in fact, it was just an ordinary day, and it was the same as every ordinary day. It was a particularly bad day. There are many, many "days" in your life. But not every day is so bad. Instead of complaining and getting discouraged on a bad day, we should relax, put the bad day behind us, and wait for the rain to pass.

A "Gone with the Wind" that year brought a famous saying to the world, "Tomorrow is a new day (w.is.ther.day. This famous saying is actually the essence of "a bad day". No matter how miserable life is and how difficult it is, tomorrow will be a brand new beginning. The day is lived every day, but the shape of the life depends on the person who lives it. Mindset, you have the right to decide how your day should be.

A bad day can be a lucky day to say goodbye to the past, or it can be a terrible day to accumulate character. When twelve o'clock passes, the day will be different.

So, as Warner Records said, "Bad Day" is really a holiday song, it's a song that gives people hope, encourages people to enjoy life, and look forward. Christmas has a special meaning.

Music critics praised the idea and melody of this song. Even if it is not spectacular and majestic, it is still a very good song. When "Two" was released, music critics said that the album's debut was a great first. Obviously, the quality of "Bad Day" has long been recognized.

The sales of 130,000 in the first week are indeed not good for "Bad Day", but if you think about it seriously, this is already the eighth single of "Two", and it will be even more incredible. .

Seeing the sluggish sales of "Bad Day" couldn't be more good news for Universal Music. Because they were expected to release the somber Christmas single "Welcome Home". To coincide with the release of the single, Alex Calleri arranged a series of promotions that lasted from early December to mid-January next year.

Accidentally learned that Evan Bell will also release a Christmas single. Melancholy and Alex Carrey didn't think too much. After all, they and Evan Bell are not rivals on the same level at all. Despite the rapid rise in depression throughout 2003, they can be regarded as a high-profile member of the new generation of idol singers, not to mention that they are still idol bands, the only one in the current music market, which allows them to dominate this market. The super popular ~www.readwn.com~ However, to compete with Evan Bell in sales, the melancholy mood is still not high enough, and the two sides can still be said to be far apart.

However, now that "Bad Day" has not shown enough competitiveness in sales, maybe, maybe the blue mood can really beat Evan Bell once. Although the competition this time is simply too numerous, Evan Bell does not participate in the promotion, and secondly, it has been a year and a half since the release of this single "Two", and it is indeed declining. Even if the melancholic mood sales win, it still feels a bit invincible. But in any case, the melancholy mood saw the dawn of victory, which in itself is a very rare thing.

Therefore, even if he is calm and introverted like Alex Caleri, he can't hold back his inner excitement. He can only keep telling melancholy mood that he must perform well in the publicity of the show and fully show the joy of the festival. This will better drive the sales of the single "Welcome Home".

"Welcome Home" was released a week after "Bad Day" and joined the Christmas song war atmosphere.
