This star’s style is wrong

Chapter 252 Profound lyrics, a song about being robbed of dreams

As the rehearsal progressed, Fang Xing put forward more requirements for Shen Xiyin's singing.

"The chorus can be more hysterical. The theme this time is rock and roll. The sound is a little unstable, but it can better express the style." Fang Xing began to look for the balance of intensity when the two sang together.

"Okay, I'll give it a try." Shen Xiyin did as asked every time.

Although the joint practice was not perfect every time, she was able to make corresponding adjustments every time she sang, which made Fang Xing very satisfied.

A good scene needs to be developed slowly.

After the problems with singing and pitch were almost resolved, Fang Xing began to seek higher-level things:

"When you sang, the emotion was still a little lacking. But it doesn't matter. The lyrics of this song are indeed not that simple. Do you understand what this song is expressing?"

Shen Xiyin frowned and thought, and replied uncertainly: "It seems to be a separation, but it also seems to be expressing a dream. There are some words that I don't quite understand."

Fang Xing explained it directly to her: "Parting and dreaming are two correct descriptions, but they are not completely correct.

“The lyrics are indeed about dreams, but the meaning of the whole song is actually to give up on dreams and lose them to all living beings.

“The ‘I’ in the lyrics refers to different ‘I’s.

“Among them, the real ‘I’ represents myself who has been deprived of dreams by life.

“The ‘he’ in the lyrics represents the self who once had dreams.

“The lyrics express the self that has lost its dreams, and the emotions that surge in my heart when I see myself who once had dreams.

“The lyrics are also about growth. For many people, growth is the process of losing their dreams.

"This song expresses the process of 'him' facing reality, hiding his dreams in the sea, and becoming mature. After he matures, he becomes 'me'."

After Shen Xiyin listened to the explanation of the lyrics, her mood suddenly became very complicated.

Who hasn’t been young?

Who hasn't had a dream?

However, reality is cruel and cannot tolerate too many dreams.

There are too many dream-chasers who like music in the music world, but how many musicians are there who can really persevere and make their dreams come true?

Shen Xiyin also worked hard to practice her voice and study music. Could it be because she liked it in her heart?

However, when I really entered the entertainment industry, many things were different from what I imagined.

She had already been severely beaten in the entertainment industry and became the "me" who hid her dreams in the sea.

Therefore, after listening to the explanation of the lyrics, her heart was filled with emotions, and her eyes were slightly red.

Fang Xing knew that her emotions were coming, and this song wanted this kind of emotion, so he prepared to practice together again:

“Great, remember your current emotion and put that emotion into the song.

“I don’t want to give up my dreams, but I have to give up my dreams. The process of human growth is the process of being lost to all living beings.

"Think back to the time when you loved music and stood in front of the entertainment industry.

"When you saw that self, with a sensible expression on your face, you turned around and hid yourself in the sea."

Shen Xiyin's eyes were a little red, and she nodded vigorously and said: "Okay, let's start. I know how to sing, hurry up, let's try it again quickly."

She really wanted to express it now and wanted to express this emotion.

Singing is inherently a process of expression.

If there is nothing in my heart that needs to be expressed, I just sing it out, and what I sing is the melody.

When there is something in your heart that needs to be expressed, what you sing is emotion and emotion.

Human singing is always superior to computer synthesis, and that’s why.

After thoroughly understanding the lyrics, the two practiced together again.

Shen Xiyin has indeed captured what the lyrics really want to express. The effect of singing is getting better every time, and the emotions expressed are becoming more and more full.

Time gradually came to the recording of the eighth chorus session of "Singing Loudly".

Four groups of new and old singers have been rehearsing for a week.

Everyone is working hard to compete for the golden song of this issue.

Every time Fang Xing wanted to record the scene, Guo Keda did not answer the call that day, returned to the brokerage team, and continued to be his executive broker.

However, Guo Keda actually rarely does brokerage work anymore because his notices are full.

The reason why he didn't answer the announcement when recording "Singing Loudly" was because he wanted to see Fang Xing live.

In Guo Keda's words, every scene Fang Xing performs is a god-level scene, and it becomes more and more terrifying.

He is also a man with dreams. His own singing skills are average, but this does not prevent him from observing other singers' superb performances.

Moreover, competitive music variety shows like "Sing Out Loud" allow singers to unleash their potential because of their competitive nature.

The singing ability shown on this show is usually not seen in concerts.

Being able to see powerful singers perform at a super live performance is already a huge profit.

Recording day.

Fang Xing and Shen Xiyin, as well as the management team from Guangguang Entertainment and the studio, came to the recording site.

Rehearsal will be held in the morning, then rested in the afternoon, and the official recording time will be in the evening.

During the break, the four groups of singers were asking each other about each other.

There are always a lot of gossips in the entertainment industry.

"Boss, I heard from a friend of Pu Xiang that the song sung by Tan Zhiguan and Ren Qiuya was very popular this time. Do you want to go to their rehearsal?" Qiao Yinghong suggested.

Fang Xing rehearsed in the morning, and Tan Zhiguan rehearsed in the afternoon.

Although Feifan Entertainment is nominally the producer of the show, Fang Xing is also one of the main creators. If you really want to listen to Tan Zhiguan's rehearsal, there is actually a way to do so.

However, Fang Xing had no interest in it. He shook his head and said calmly: "It's not necessary. As long as you sing your own song well, whether others sing well or poorly will not affect the result."

Qiao Yinghong looked at Shen Xiyin curiously and asked, "What about you? You don't want to listen either?"

Shen Xiyin shook his head and smiled: "I am indeed a little curious, but I think the instructor is right. As long as you sing well, you will not lose."

During the afternoon break, Shen Xiyin was still a little nervous. She continued to wear headphones and listen to the best version of the demo recorded during the joint practice, allowing herself to continue to immerse herself in the lyrics expressed in this song.

At six o'clock in the evening, the program director came over to announce admission.

Since the recording tonight was a chorus session, when it was broadcast, it was edited together with the pairing session recorded last week.

So there are no entrance shots tonight, I sit directly in the guest seats in the stage area to start recording.

There are four double sofas in the guest seats.

After the four groups of model singers and new singers took their seats, Tong Fei announced the start of recording.

Host Liu Silei stepped onto the stage with graceful steps and spoke the opening words enthusiastically:

“The theme of tonight’s collaboration is ‘rock’, which is an extremely important part of the music world.

“Even in the past few centuries, when people study the history of music development in the future, the word ‘rock’ will inevitably appear in history textbooks.

“Tonight, four groups of singers will bring four songs to interpret the ‘rock’ in their hearts for us.

"First of all, the first group of singers to appear are Tan Zhiguan and Ren Qiuya. We all know that Teacher Zhiguan's previous songs did not have many rock-style songs.

"So, Teacher Zhiguan, are you confident about tonight's cooperative performance?"

Tan Zhiguan picked up the microphone and replied calmly: "Actually, I have always liked rock music. When I was a child, I envied those classmates who could form bands and play rock music.

"However, I have never had the opportunity to release a rock-style song. I finally have the opportunity tonight. This is also thanks to my producer Xu Shangyan, who personally helped me and Qiu Ya re-arrange this song."

Liu Silei then said, "So that's it. Teacher Zhiguan's partner tonight is Qiu Ya. The combination of you two was said by other singers to be the strongest partner in the entire season. Qiu Ya, do you think so?"

Ren Qiuya quickly shook her head and said, "No, no, I'm here to study. There are many seniors here."

"Qiu Ya is too humble."

Liu Silei joked and turned to the topic: "What is the main theme of the rock song prepared by the two teachers tonight?"

Tan Zhiguan organized his words before replying: "What I want is freedom."

"Freedom is indeed a major theme of rock songs, freedom, freedom and unrestrainedness." Liu Silei praised, and then asked: "Then two teachers, please tell the audience together, what is the name of the song you are going to sing tonight?"

Tan Zhiguan and Ren Qiuya looked at each other and said the song title into the microphone together: ""The Direction of the Wind"."

"Wow! This is a monument in rock music. What kind of performance will the two singers perform tonight? Let us give the stage to them." After Liu Silei said the last sentence, he turned around and walked off the stage, handing the stage to the singer.

Tan Zhiguan and Ren Qiuya prepared backstage for twenty minutes before going on stage and starting to brew their emotions.

The preparation process is a bit long, but when it is broadcast, everything on the screen will be in the singing part, but the recording is slower.

After both of them were ready, the band played the intro.

Tan Zhiguan slowly raised the microphone and began to sing the main song: "The direction of the wind is yearning for freedom, the direction of freedom, which I have never had. Looking at the end of the wind, I only want you, as long as you follow me..."

After singing.

There was warm applause.

The singing skills of Tan Zhiguan and Ren Qiuya are indeed at the top level in the music industry. They sang this song to the extreme, re-arranged it, and sang it with new ideas. It can be said that they injected new soul into this old song.

Immediately afterwards.

Liu Silei returned to the stage and started to ask interactive questions: "It sounds good. This song is very old, even older than me. I never thought that such a rock classic could have a new interpretation. It is really great."

After praising her, Liu Silei began to talk about the topic to the music critics present.

Well-known music critic Fei Zeming said: "It's great, thank you two teachers for redefining rock classics for us.

“Normally no one dares to cover a rock classic like this because it’s so classic.

"The version collaborated by Teacher Zhiguan and Teacher Qiuya reinterprets this rock classic. It not only sings new ideas, but also pushes this song to a new peak.

“I think this version of the cover completely surpasses the original song.

“I say this not to disrespect the original singer. On the contrary, fewer and fewer people listen to old songs. This is because different eras have different music.

“To truly respect these classic songs, we should be brave enough to re-sing them to make them more suitable for this era, so that today’s young people can hear them, like them, and make them classics again.

"The two teachers have accomplished this. Thank you for your efforts. I believe that this song "The Direction of the Wind" will appear in the playlists of more young people."

After some praise, the audience applauded again, and the atmosphere was very warm.

Judging from the reaction of the audience, the number of votes for this song will definitely not be low.

However, during the competition, the votes will not be announced on the spot, but will be announced at the end after all the singers have finished singing.

After the music critic finished his review, Liu Silei began to guide the process:

"Next, it's the turn of the second group of singers. This is not the first time that the second group of singers have collaborated. They have collaborated in the first issue.

"What kind of sparks will be created when we collaborate again? Let's say hello to this group of singers first.

"Fang Xing, Xiyin, after listening to the first group of singers, are you nervous now?"

Shen Xiyin nodded and replied: "One thing, I have been very nervous since the afternoon."

Liu Silei continued to ask: "Why?"

Shen Xiyin thought about it and replied: "Because the song I want to sing tonight is very difficult, and this song has a lot of empathy for me. If I fail to sing it well, I will be very sad."

"oh?"

Liu Silei asked a curious question and continued to delve into the topic: "There are many points of empathy, but what is it?"

Shen Xiyin glanced at Fang Xing next to him, and Fang Xing raised his eyebrows, indicating for her to continue.

"The lyrics of the song we sang tonight are quite profound. I practiced singing for two days and sang it countless times, but I still didn't fully understand the meaning of the lyrics. In the end, Teacher Fang Xing explained it to me, and I finally understood it. It meant something, and then I felt something inexplicably."

When Liu Silei heard this explanation, she was surprised and said: "If the lyrics are so deep, aren't you worried that the audience won't understand?"

Shen Xiyin nodded and replied: "I'm afraid, but this song is so good. I firmly believe that as long as you sing well and satisfy yourself, it will be the greatest success."

Liu Silei continued to ask: "So what is the theme of this song?"

Shen Xiyin replied: "It's a dream, a dialogue between my mediocre self and the self who once had a dream."

"I once had a dream. No wonder Xiyin was touched by this song. Who hasn't had a dream? But who can hold on to their dream until the end?"

Liu Silei's tone became sentimental when she said this: "Perhaps you don't know that my dream when I was a child was not to be a host.

"My original dream was to be a dancer, but I injured my back during practice when I was a child, so I had to change my career to broadcasting and hosting."

When Liu Silei hosted the Orioles Awards, she performed a dance at the beginning. No one expected that that was her original dream.

After finishing this paragraph, Liu Silei asked the last question: "So, please ask the two singers to tell everyone loudly, what song are you going to sing?"

Fang Xing and Shen Xiyin said the name of the song together: "The song is called "Mountains and Seas"."

This song is not about love, it is about dreams.

After understanding the lyrics, listening to them again gives you a completely different feeling.

This song "Mountains and Seas" can be heard directly from Tan Weiwei and Cyndi Wang's duet version. Riding the Wind and Waves 3’s real breakout songs are indeed great.

The prelude of the original song is one and a half minutes long, which is not suitable for singing in a singing environment.
