Entertaining Children

  Chapter 646 Double CD and EP

  "Singer" was originally a trump card program with a high ratings on Shonan Satellite TV, and the final was live broadcast. Therefore, on the second day after the final, a large number of relevant reports and media comments appeared.

  The first focus of media reports and comments is naturally the ownership of the "King of Singer". According to the experience of the previous seasons, the title of "King of Singer" generally belongs to middle-aged singers who have a relatively long debut time, are very experienced, and have a relatively high status in the music scene. At the beginning of the show, Hong Wei and Xiao Siqi were the two most popular candidates for this season's "King of Songs". In the end, it was not surprising that Xiao Siqi and Hong Wei won the championship and runner-up respectively. Even if Xiao Yao, a “big black horse” that attracts attention, appeared in the show and reached the finals in one fell swoop, not many people thought that Xiao Yao could win the final championship.

  However, looking at the whole process of the finals, most of the audience felt that the most impressive singer was Xiao Yao!

  First of all, he is the only singer to bring two groups of celebrity guests, and these two groups of guests are not only foreigners, but also sang Chinese songs with Xiao Yao. This point was already a hot spot for discussion by netizens who watched the live broadcast on the Internet as early as the time of the live broadcast. After the finals, the media did not let go of this big point, and they all reported and commented heavily on it. Like netizens, most of the media gave very positive comments on Xiao Yao's act of attracting foreign stars to sing Chinese songs, and praised Xiao Yao.

  Secondly, the "Immortals" band of Xiao Yao ignited to the extreme when performing the rock song "No Place to Confront", bursting the scene. In the whole finals, the audience's most impressive performance, in addition to Xiao Siqi's "Hill", which touched countless people, was the "Immortals" band, which sang to countless people's "No Place". The results of Xiao Siqi and Xiao Yao from the second and fourth in the first round to the first and third in the final total score are also very good proof of this.

  The most important thing is that the two songs "No Place to Self-Containment" and "Hills" move and quietly, each of which achieves the ultimate goal, is actually Xiao Yao's work. In fact, not only these two songs, but the two chorus songs of Xiao Siqi and Xiao Yao and Hong Xiuyan in the first round were also written by Xiao Yao. A total of 13 songs in a final, Xiao Yao's songs accounted for four. The breakout competition was already a special concert of Xiao Yao’s works. In the finals, almost one-third of the songs were written by Xiao Yao, and they were all new songs. Xiao Yao’s ability to write songs once again allowed the audience to interact with each other. The industry is speechless.

  Although he only won third place in the finals, in general, many people think that Xiao Yao is the most outstanding singer in this season's "Singer".

Even if you don’t look at the special points that Xiao Yao has in almost every issue, he only compares the single-period results. Xiao Yao has won the first single-period three times, creating Liang Xueying the first single-period first, although he also won seventh once Except for the seventh time and the fifth time, the other games are all in the top four. This result is definitely among the best among all singers. In terms of single-game performance, Xiao Yao won the first place in the breakout game and sang without a microphone in the song "Fantastic" even surpassed Xiao Siqi's "Hill" and "Immortals" in the finals. It was the audience. In my heart this season and even the most exciting performance of this show so far.

The best performance but the failure to win the championship. This is reminiscent of the scene when Xiao Yao participated in "Good Voice" two years ago: He is also recognized as the best overall performer in the show, just like "Biggle" without a microphone. "New Drunken Concubine" was also the most exciting performance in the show, but it turned out to be runner-up. At that time, many people attributed the reason to Xiao Yao's random and last minute selection of songs in the last two songs and ran to help his opponent save the accompaniment; this time, some people attributed the reason to Xiao Yao's handwriting song.

  Although Xiao Siqi is Xiao Yao’s father, and the relationship is much closer than Fan Linxuan at that time, but the show is a rival on the same stage after all. When there is no danger of elimination in the regular program, it is enough to help Liang Xueying, a competitor, arrange and design the stage. In the finals, he also helped to write the song and write two songs. This is not a big heart, but some are not at all. Care about the championship.

  Therefore, there was a kind of remark that quietly emerged on the Internet, saying that Xiao Siqi relied on Xiao Yao's help for this championship, and Xiao Yao didn't care about the championship at all. Xiao Siqi's championship was actually given to him by Xiao Yao deliberately!

   Soon, this kind of speech spread on the Internet, and some media also reported and reprinted it. In response to this kind of remarks, Xiao Yao accepted a rare media interview and publicly responded:

"Isn’t it normal for me to write songs to my dad? I haven’t written to other people! I can write songs to other singers in our studio, and even to singers who are not in our studio. I can’t write songs for my dad? He is my dad. Of course I hope he can win the championship, so I have a problem with writing songs for him and singing in the finals? Say I deliberately give him the championship? Is the championship mine? , Just let it be? There is still a teacher Hong in front of me!

   Say I don’t care about the champion? I don't care if the champion specially finds two groups of guests to bring "Immortals" from the United States? In addition to me, is there any other singer from the two groups of star guests? My performance of the two songs in the two rounds is not enough? Who dares to say that I deliberately released the water during the game? Just because I can write any song does not mean that I can sing any song. Can you imagine me singing "Faded" by myself? I want to sing "Hill" by myself, but can I sing "Hill" with the taste of my father? "

After    made such a response, Xiao Yao ignored the comments on the Internet. After the "Singer" finals, he still has a lot to do.

  The first step is to release an album. Two years ago, I participated in "Good Voice" because my father wanted to help him release an album. The purpose of participating in "Singer" was actually the same. When Xiao Siqi recommended Xiao Yao to the "Singer" program group, he saved it. This is also the mind.

   When Xiao Yao accepted Tao Ran’s invitation, he had already guessed that the person who recommended him was his father Xiao Siqi, and he naturally knew Xiao Siqi’s thoughts. I have not released an album for almost two years. At that time, I promised Tao Ran to participate in the show. In addition to the attractiveness of the show itself, the ability to compete with my dad and a bunch of top Chinese singers on the same stage, the purpose of satisfying my dad and his own album is also one of the reasons. Now that the show is over, I have become popular again because of this show, and it is only natural to take advantage of the situation to release an album.

  I sang eight songs on "Good Voice", and seven of them are original. It is still the four old songs that have been released before to come together to make an album. This time, Xiao Yao sang twelve songs in this show alone, and all of them are original. With the addition of the Cantonese version of "Red Rose", "White Rose", there are already 13 songs, no need for the previous ones. The scattered songs are enough for an album.

  But since the album is going to be released, it is also the intention to collect the previous singles and re-release them together. Xiao Yao sorted out the original singing songs he produced after the release of his first album.

  "Maiba" and "The Great Wall", two chorus songs that have already released singles, Xiao Yao didn't have much interest. He planned to leave one for Fan Linxuan's album and one for Chen Chen's album. The next thing is to play the pop-up "How Lucky", "Yenjing One Night" and "Flying Higher" during Shen Xiyi's exam, "You at the same table" where one stop to the end, and then last year at Bo Qian The street sang to Sun Tingting's "Love Is Already". This one was sung in English at the time, and it is better to use the Chinese version when releasing the album. After that, the spoof song that ridiculed American Airlines is no longer needed. Next is the "Vincent" at the brand conference. This one has sung a jazz version in France, but the original album is enough. The jazz version has the same lyrics and music, it is still a song, and it is not recorded. After the official version, it will not be added to the album to recharge.

  In this way, the original solo song I sang before is six songs, plus the 13 songs in "Singer", and the total of 19 songs is almost enough for two albums. Release a double CD version of the album? But nineteen songs were released on a double CD, Xiao Yao felt that it seemed a bit unkind, so he wanted to put together one or two songs, how to maintain a CD of at least ten songs in the regular number.

In the show, I sang a few lines of "Don't be afraid or afraid", but Xiao Yao gave this song to Pass as soon as possible. This kind of song can be written and sung for fun, but Xiao Yao will never record his own singing. The official version of "Song of the Pig" that Sun Tingting had heard was thrown at Fan Linxuan. This song... seems to be for Yiyi, and I promised to give it to Yiyi and Xixi. The anchor wrote the song, and it happened to match the cute style of Iyina.

  Thinking of the two Yuyu anchors, Xiao Yao thought of the four new songs he sang when the Yuyu anchors. When I went live on other platforms in the next few days, Xiao Yao sang the same new songs, so Xiao Yao had four more new songs to choose from. The nursery rhyme "Counting the Stars" will naturally not be released by myself, but the three songs "Xing Qing", "Chengdu" and "Two Little Flower Dogs" are all suitable for release on the album, and These three songs have all been sung during the anchor, and they have also been made public on other occasions. They are also more consistent with the style of the songs from the album that were first appeared on other occasions.

  Nineteen plus three, twenty-two! Seeing this number, Xiao Yao showed another helpless wry smile.

  Because he had already saved the idea to release the album before participating in "Singer", during the weekly preparation period of "Singer", Xiao Yao not only practiced, but also directly recorded the official version of the song. That was the time when I went to the United States to find Sun Tingting to shoot the MV for "Thinkingoutloud", Xiao Yao also recorded both the "Red Rose" and "White Rose" both in China and Guangdong. Now that he wants to release the album, Xiao Yao needs to record the original Chinese version of "Love Is Already" and the official version of the three songs he sang during the live broadcast.

  The four songs were all sung by Xiao Yao, and the lyrics, music, arrangement and soundtrack were already in his mind, so it was not that difficult to record. Three days later, Xiao Yao recorded the official version of the four songs, and then sent the official version of the audio files of the 22 songs and the cover and back cover photos he designed and shot to Xiao Siqi.

  Why was it sent to Xiao Siqi? Because after the "Singer" finals, Xiao Yao still did not return to Yanjing's home for the summer vacation. Now that Shencheng has rented a house here, Xiao Yao is in charge of the recording studio in Yin Xi's studio, so he avoids competing with Xiao Siqi for the right to use Qijia studio's recording studio, and returns again. To Shencheng.

  This reason is quite valid, because after the "Singer" finals, not only Xiao Yao has plans to release an album, but Xiao Siqi himself also has musical actions and requires the use of a recording studio.

When Xiao Yao ended all the regular seasons, after Xiao Siqi advanced to the finals ahead of schedule, he told Xiao Siqi to ask Xiao Siqi to find Ye Jiaying as a guest singer, and also said that he helped them write a chorus song. As a result, Xiao Siqi took the initiative to ask Xiao Yao for the second round. Solo songs. At that time, Xiao Yao agreed to give Xiao Siqi a chorus song and three solo songs for him to choose. In fact, Xiao Yao later gave Xiao Siqi the lyrics and music scores of five songs in total.

In addition to Xiao Siqi’s "You Most Precious" and "Hill" in the finals, Xiao Yao also gave another classic song "Song for Myself" by Xiao Siqi's previous life, Li Zongsheng, and "She Come to Hear My Sing" by the **** of song, Jacky Cheung. Meeting" and another chorus song, "Choice" by Lin Zixiang and Ye Qianwen. These songs are very suitable for Xiao Siqi's solo singing and Xiao Siqi's chorus with Ye Jiaying. On the contrary, they are far from Xiao Yao's style. Although Xiao Siqi sang "You Most Precious" and "Hill" in the final after making a decision, the other three songs are also classic songs in his heart, and he did not intend to let it go.

  Xiao Siqi does not have the habit of Xiao Yao who sings the live version in other public places before releasing a single or album, so after the final of "Singer", Xiao Siqi also plans to record three other songs.

  Speaking of it, Xiao Siqi himself hasn't released a new song for a long time. The last new song that was released was the martial arts drama theme song "The Sword Like a Dream" written by Xiao Yao when he helped Gong Chen get the chance to sing the ending song of a martial arts drama. But for several years, he just released such a new song.

  Xiao Siqi himself also wanted to release an album, but he has higher requirements for the quality of the songs he sings. After opening a studio, he originally spent much less time writing songs than before. He didn’t write songs as perverted as Xiao Yao, a traverser. It has been a long time since he wrote a work that satisfies and suits him. . Shen Yinan has grown old, and his energy is not as good as before. This kind of brain-wounding creative work has also been done a lot less than before. Although you can also buy songs from outside creators, it’s better to find some songs that can satisfy new singers like Fan Linxuan. Songs that make Xiao Siqi’s veteran singers heartwarming are hard to come by, and they have never been able to come out. New song. Now I have five songs given by Xiao Yao, all of which are good songs for me to sing. Although it is not enough to release an album, it is good to have an EP first.

After the "Singer" finals, Xiao Siqi also wanted to record a new EP for himself, and Xiao Yao had a recording studio in Shencheng where he was in charge. Xiao Siqi and Ye Jiaying, who had participated in the brand launch, had also seen it with their own eyes. . Therefore, Xiao Yao wanted to return to Shencheng to avoid fighting for the right to use the recording studio in the studio, and Xiao Siqi and Ye Jiaying couldn't say why they objected.

Xiao Siqi is a veteran singer and a senior music producer. There is a more senior father Shen Yinan beside him. The two people have much more experience in music production than Xiao Yao. Even if they did not write songs by themselves, this recording is five. The speed of the first song is not slower than Xiao Yao's own recording of four songs. As a result, within a week of the end of the "Singer" finals, a double CD album containing 22 songs by Xiao Yao and an EP containing five songs by Xiao Siqi were put on the shelves and released online successively.
