This Star Wants To Retire

The prelude to the song "Thousands of Miles Away" and the crisp bells that appeared at the beginning gave people a sense of profound artistic conception.

Immediately afterwards, the sound of many national musical instruments can be heard.

【Michael Lin】is a very good arranger, Jay Chou has at least 30 to 40 songs arranged by him.

He is quite versatile in composing.

He can do trendy songs such as "Nocturne" and "The Seventh Chapter of the Night".

He is also good at Chinese style songs such as "East Wind Breaks" and "Hair Like Snow".

Jay Chou himself said that composing music means that I gave birth to a child, and composing music means dressing the child.

Obviously, at Lin Miike's level, he is definitely a top master of the dress-up game.

At the backstage of the Spring Festival Gala, Chen Luo, who had already completed his solo stage, did not leave, but stayed in the backstage.

He wanted to finish listening to Luo Mo's new song before leaving.

From the current point of view, every time Luo Mo sings a new song in a large-scale festival party, it is very strong.

If he left without listening, he would feel uneasy.

"This young boy is different from other singers after all." Chen Luo thought to himself.

After the melodious sound of the prelude to "Thousands of Miles Away" spread, Luo Mo stood alone on the stage and began to sing.

"【The eaves are like cliffs, the wind chimes are like the sea,

I wait for Yan to return,

Time is arranged to play an accident,

You walk away quietly. 】”

The style of writing this song is very similar to Vincent Fang.

He said in a certain program that when writing his own lyrics, he must use the words "you, me, him".

Especially when writing songs with a Chinese style.

He feels that the lyrics are not a narrative sentence of history, but the catalyst of emotion, so it must be specific to [people].

Instead of just citing classics and putting together many words.

For example, "【Your hair is like snow...】"

For example, "[Azure is waiting for misty rain, and I am waiting for you]".

The same goes for the lyrics to "Thousands of Miles Away."

Actually, this song is from the album "Still Fantasy".

This album has a focus, that is [storytelling]. Like the "Chrysanthemum Terrace" in the album that has been misunderstood by people, there is also a song "Moulin Rouge", and "Chapter Seven of the Night", all of which are like this.

Therefore, the song "Thousands of Miles Away" also gives people a strong sense of imagery.

This sense of picture can make people immerse themselves in it.

Especially when watching the stage while listening to the song.

When the audience hears it now, they naturally understand that this is a love song.

Like Chen Luo's "Romantic", it can be regarded as a love song.

"There are a lot of love songs in this year's Spring Festival Gala, hahaha!"

"I like the feeling of being eloquent."

"Is this song considered Chinese style?"

In the barrage of films, Luo Mo continued to sing.

"[The story is outside the city, and the thick fog cannot dissipate,

Can't read the dialogue.

You can't hear it, the wind doesn't exist,

It's me who is feeling. 】”

Hearing this all the time, Chen Luo's expression was normal in the backstage of the Spring Festival Gala.

The standard of this song is definitely enough, unlike some inferior creations, people don't want to listen to it after a while, and they simply can't stand the climax of the chorus.

These days, the creation of many songs is very lazy, or the level is not up to standard. In the whole song, only a few lines are listenable.

Many people may hear a few lines of lyrics on short video platforms like Douyin, and think: "Hey, this song is not bad!"

But once you search for songs and listen to the whole song, you will think: "What the hell!"

The song "Thousands of Miles Away" is currently in Chen Luo's mind, and it is quite satisfactory.

For the time being, there is no place that is particularly surprising.

It is not like "Sunny Sky", "Nocturne", "Qilixiang" and other songs, which have the so-called "prelude to kill", just a prelude is awesome.

But the more this happened, the more vigilant Chen Luo became!

"It shouldn't be just like that, definitely not just like that!" Chen Luo thought to himself.

It has to be said that the person who knows you best is often your opponent.

Luo Mo's singing up to now is indeed still laying the groundwork.

On the stage, he held the microphone and continued to sing:

"[Who was outside the window when the dream woke up,

open the ending,

That thin future,

I can’t bear anyone to tear it down——]”

At this time, the tone of the voice rose slightly, Chen Luo's eyes were fixed, and he couldn't help saying: "Here we come!"

Judging from the structure of the song, it is obvious that the climax of the chorus will be introduced next.

The killer move of this song is probably hidden here!

Sure enough, when Luo Mo sang the chorus, Chen Luo couldn't help but feel his heart sink.

"This is... Bel Canto!" Chen Luo was shocked.

Yes, the song "Thousands of Miles Away" was originally sung by Jay Chou and Fei Yuqing.

Later, there was a solo version of Fei Yuqing, which was included in his solo album.

In the 2008 Spring Festival Gala, Fei Yuqing sang this song alone.

In fact, Jay Chou really wanted to work with Fei Yuqing when he was making "Hair Like Snow".

Later, it was also through other people's matchmaking that the classic work "Thousands of Miles Away" came into being.

Obviously, Fei Yuqing's singing voice is very special.

What Jay Chou wants is this sense of contrast!

The style of RNB is in perfect contrast with Bel Canto!

As far as Luo Mo is concerned, he has studied bel canto for a period of time, and he has been studying opera since elementary school. In terms of [softness], he may be different from Fei Yuqing, but he can also sing in a different way.

And in the accompaniment, there is Tong Shu's harmony in it.

Don't forget, Tong Shu is the strongest tool man, and this kid is very useful when it comes to singing harmony.

[Bel Canto] Appearing suddenly, it is natural to surprise everyone with its skills.

Just listen to Luo Mo singing:

"[I send you away thousands of miles away, you are silent black and white,

In the silent age, maybe we should not fall in love too far away.

I sent you away from Tianya, are you still there?

Where does the sound of the piano come from? Life and death are hard to guess. It takes a lifetime to wait. 】”

A strong sense of contrast hit Luo Mo's face when he sang the first line.

To be honest, many listeners are actually not used to bel canto.

Bel canto will make many people feel that it is not popular enough.

Especially for some young listeners, the concept of bel canto stays on some older singers or chorus.

I feel that singing in this way will give the song a strong sense of age.

Parents, grandparents and grandparents may like it.

Let's forget it!

But, can bel canto and pop really not be combined?

Of course not!

However, if you want to make this thing well, make people feel unobtrusive, and make young people and middle-aged and old people like it, it will be very difficult!

This kind of breakthrough, this kind of innovation, the vast majority of creators dare not try.

But don't forget, this one in front of you is a 【Songwriter Ghost】!

During Chinese New Year, many netizens actually want to speak more civilized.

However, the moment the bel canto appeared, the barrage of the live broadcast was instantly overwhelming, and there were only two words - shit!

These people were not only amazed at Luo Mo's "boldness", but also marveled at his singing skills.

It wasn't recorded, and it wasn't lip-synced.

He was on the spot of the live broadcast, switching his singing style instantly!

Since the original song was sung in chorus, there was not a long gap between Jay Chou's part and Fei Yuqing's part.

This means that Luo Mo must change his singing mode in an instant!

If the previous "One Cut Plum" has already made the middle-aged and elderly audience in front of the TV love it, then the appearance of "A Thousand Miles Away" can be said to broaden the scope of hunting again!

A large number of songwriters who were watching the live broadcast couldn't help thinking: "Is this Luo Mo's ambition?"

What he wanted was never just the young market.

People of all ages, he wants to catch them all!

You know, many grandmas on the earth can sing a few lines of "Thousands of Miles Away"!

………

………

Brother Xun said: The joys and sorrows of human beings are not connected.

Also at the backstage of the Spring Festival Gala, Chen Luo felt nervous, while Director Zhang felt elated.

He has heard the rehearsal, and he knows how difficult it is to sing "Thousands of Miles Away" live.

But Luo Mo is a person who is determined not to lip-sync, so he is also worried about the stage effect.

However, it was obvious that he calmed down the scene with his singing skills.

The ratings and live broadcast data can be said to be soaring all the way!

And what chilled Chen Luo the most was that this song with a strong sense of contrast actually incorporated... many changes!

"After [Bel Canto] ended, they actually picked up a rap in seconds!?"

On the stage of the Spring Festival Gala, it is rare to hear songs with rap elements.

As we all know, with the style of the Spring Festival Gala, I don't like such elements very much.

If you dare to play like this, it means that the director has a preference for you, and you are also a bold person with a high level of art.

The most outrageous thing is that after [Bel Canto], Luo Mo immediately added a rap, incorporating rap elements into it!

Before that, no one thought that these two things were compatible and could be put together.

In fact, Chen Luo didn't know that his current shock was small compared to the rest of the musicians watching the live broadcast.

The reason is simple, he can't see the subtitles in the background!

He heard Luo Mo rapping, but the content of this passage was already full of ancient rhymes, so he was a little confused and didn't know what the lyrics were about.

But the people who watch the live broadcast are different. They can see the subtitles and the lyrics.

Luo Mo sang:

"[Hearing the sound of tears, I went into the forest to find pear blossoms and white flowers,

Only a row of moss. 】”

Oriental charm, here we come!

If this kind of multi-element fusion is done by others, it may seem nondescript and very abrupt.

It seems that many people who are in the hip-hop circle now deliberately move closer to oriental elements.

But this song "Thousands of Miles Away" not only connects naturally, it can even be said to be the finishing touch!

If we say, the contrast between RNB's music style and Bel Canto's singing style is big enough. Then, suddenly incorporating a very small piece of rap will make the listening impact even stronger!

Chen Luo suddenly felt that after the stage was over, he should leave the stage honestly. Why did he listen to Luo Mo's new song before leaving?

Section A of the song is over, and section B is next.

From the perspective of the stage effect, section A is responsible for setting up and creating a sense of contrast. As for section B... that's Luo Mo's time to show off his skills!

As soon as he opened his mouth, he didn't use the popular singing method of section A, but directly used bel canto!

This made many musicians dumbfounded.

"Have you changed the mode? I thought this song only used the bel canto in the chorus climax!"

"Good guy, in section B, from the very beginning, there is a line of bel canto and a line of popular singing!"

"How did he manage to switch so naturally?"

In today's music world, some people even sing with a single method, but they will be out of tune, so they must incorporate "electronic music" to make their voices in tune.

But what is Luo Mo doing?

He can switch freely!

Just listen to Luo Mo sang in bel canto first:

"【Wrapped in glass white, transparent to the dust,

Your flawless love.

You come from the rain, poetic into sorrow, I'm wet now. 】”

A short section of bel canto ended, and his singing returned to normal in an instant.

"[Furong is picked on the surface of the water, the shadow of the boat is still there,

You don't come back.

Covered by the years, the flowers you said bloom,

The past is blank. 】”

Don't look at him on stage with a sense of weightlessness, as if he can switch easily. But secretly, he was exhausted from training.

Xu Chujing knew very well how hard Luo Mo had been practicing this song.

He cherishes the stage and strives to do his best every time.

At the same time, he adopts this singing mode, which also has another deep meaning.

To be honest, this is the solo version after all, there is no need to switch wildly in the B segment like the chorus version.

He just sang like in Section A, and only used bel canto in the climax of the chorus, no one would think it was anything, because it was amazing enough.

The Spring Festival Gala is a live broadcast. Since I chose to sing, the most important thing is to be stable!

The reason why Luo Mo practiced hard was because he became a little dazed after he practiced too many times.

"Since I'm exhausted like a dog, why don't I play more?"

He actually wanted to make another breakthrough!

Luo Mo didn't plan to sing [Bel Canto] in the climax of the chorus in Section B.

Originally, according to the song structure of the chorus version, the chorus of section B is no longer Fei Yuqing's solo, but Fei Yuqing's singing, Jay Chou's singing, and the fusion of the two. Repeat the climax part twice, and the song can end.

But don't forget, there is one thing Luo Mo is best at!

He knew very well that his parents and master must also be watching his stage during Chinese New Year.

Why not give them a new year surprise, and give all fans a surprise too!

It is not enough to just integrate into [Bel Canto]!

Far from enough!

When he sang the chorus for the last time, he used - [drama tone]!

For him, switching to [Bel Canto] was a bit of a struggle.

But if it's an opera.....that's just handy!

"[I send you away thousands of miles away, you are silent black and white,

In the silent age, maybe we should not fall in love too far away. 】”

Everyone naturally thought that it would still be the time for [Bel Canto], opera accent—and here it is!
