483. Dream Distance
"The singer's voice sounds familiar......"
Akina Nakamori simply told Shinichi Iwahashi the ins and outs of hearing this song and her impression of the singer's voice.
Shinichi Iwahashi was also patient, and listened carefully to her words that were a bit fragmented, and from time to time politely issued a "hmm" that meant he was listening.
Actually, Akina Nakamori herself knew that she didn't have to say it so carefully to let Iwahashi know the intention of the call. But she just wanted to tell him.
And Iwahashi Shinichi's patience gave her encouragement to do so.
Finally making his words clear, Akina Nakamori asked him, "That's it." So, Shen Yijun. Is that a new song for the band?"
After listening to Detective Nakamori Akina's reasoning, Iwahashi Shinichi couldn't help but laugh and said, "It's amazing." ”
Yoshida-san's singing voice is easily recognizable. ”
Although he didn't say "I guessed right", he could already sense the answer from his reaction. Akina Nakamori's idea was affirmed, and she was a little proud, "It's like this one's signature dish." ”
"Haha!" is a child of the shopping street.
Shin Iwahashi laughed and told her, "Our Yoshida-san would be happy to hear you." ”
Kuamei and Chan sing so talented, she may not be particularly happy, but if she praises her as "the only one", she must think that she is a good person who praises her so much.
"Really?" Akina Nakamori was also very happy, and thought for a moment, "You can hear your harmony." ”
When Iwahashi heard her say this, he was surprised.
Akina Nakamori snickered, "If you hear it in the songs of other singers, you may not be able to hear it." However, you can hear it in the song DREAMS COME TRUE. ”
In short, first confirm Miwa-chan, and then distinguish his voice from Brother Nakamura.
Akina Nakamori can hear it, not at all because of how good or special his harmonies are, but because the voice is familiar.
Iwahashi Shinichi was too happy too early, and now he had to laugh at himself, "Me and Nakamura-san," and by the way, he also pulled Nakamura brother on his back, "Both of us have been settled by Yoshida-san: there is no talent for singing." ”
This time, Akina Mori smiled.
While laughing, he said, "Actually, the harmony between Shin Ich-kun and Nakamura-san in the band is also very good. Her whimsical switch was turned on, "It's like being in a karaoke, with a good singer and friends who are on the sidelines." ”
This analogy, when you think about it, is wonderful.
Miwa-chan's crushing singing skills, not to mention ordinary listeners, even in the music industry of Yuben, among these singers who have debuted in the mainstream, there are not many songs that can sing well to her.
However, such a top-notch lead singer did not give the audience a sense of distance.
On the one hand, Miwa-chan's strong but pyrotechnic voice and life-like lyrics keep the public from feeling "inimitable".
On the other hand, her two teammates who have sparse singing skills but still insist on contributing harmony can be regarded as a credit.
The two karaoke singers who made the harmony for the singing demon king were not even considered people, and it invisibly conveyed to the audience a sense of closeness that "I can also sing with Yoshida-san".
In addition, there is also a little bit of "Since Yoshida-san can endure such two harmonies, then I will be the lead singer, and it doesn't matter if the song is not good".
Akina Nakamori's analogy is accurate, but in the end, a singer who can serve as a record producer by himself, has his own understanding and views on music.
"Worthy of being a kid of the shopping street. Iwahashi praised her.
The question was answered, and Akina Nakamori asked a new question, "Is it a single to be released?"
Shinichi Iwahashi didn't send her the record, so she thought. Subconsciously, she didn't think that Iwahashi Shinichi forgot to send it or deliberately didn't send it.
There must be some reason......
As a result, in the face of her question, Shinichi Iwahashi did not answer yes or no, and deliberately sold a pass, "Don't talk about it now, and then Akina-san will know." ”
On the other end of the phone, Akina Nakamori's curiosity was aroused.
However, Iwahashi made up his mind not to leak the bottom in advance and carry out the project in its entirety.
Unexpectedly, he, a cat lover, will one day join the team of harming cats. In life, no one knows if they will become what they hated in the past.
Just as people with thick eyebrows and big eyes may not be able to rebel.
"Okay. Akina Nakamori sighed and respected him.
After thinking about it, curiosity haunted me, and I asked, "How long is this 'after'?"
"Soon. Shinichi Iwahashi replied to her.
I calculated in my heart that the scheduled release of the new album was on the 26th, and in a little more than a week, I would be able to send her a new "tasting".
The two chatted for a while.
During this time, the emotional driver was not given instructions to go and had to stand by in place. It wasn't until Shinichi Iwahashi finished calling that he was told to go.
......
Akina Nakamori is not the only one who recognizes Miwa-chan's voice through the broadcast.
The song continued to be played on the radio, and the popularity of the song continued to rise, and more and more loyal fans of DREAMS COME TRUE heard that the song was the band's work.
Record companies and studios receive letters from fans every day asking about the song.
In response to these inquiries, both the firm and the record label chose not to respond.
The attitude of not responding made the enthusiasm of fans to send letters even higher. In the letter, they expressed their feelings about the song and expressed their expectations for the band's new work.
In Tokyo in December, the music of BGM was banned in shops in the streets and alleys due to the self-censorship, but countless Tokyoites can still hear this song "Future Vision II" when they sit in their cars, sit at home, and turn on the radio station.
Radio numbers continued to rise, jumping to first place in the third week.
The reason for this is that it has something to do with the fact that this song can't be bought anyway. I like it but I can't buy it, and if I want to listen to it a few more times, I can only keep calling the radio station on demand.
This round after round of on-demand has sent this song to the ears of more listeners. This is true in Tokyo, Osaka, and Miwa-chan's distant hometown of Sapporo.
And the song "The brake light flashes five times, that's a sign that I love you", while the song is popular, it is also quietly popular among lovers.
Couples who were forced to restrain themselves before the self-discipline order found a new romance in the face of this ordinary code.
......
Two days after receiving a call from Akina Nakamori, Shinichi Iwahashi received a reply from Akina Nakamori. The letter comes with an origami peacock, and it is also very carefully colored with paint, which looks very beautiful.
When Shinichi Iwahashi saw such an origami work, he admired Akina Nakamori. After admiring it, I had a little headache again.
Isn't this question a bit out of the ordinary?
Holding such an origami peacock, when Shinichi Iwahashi called back to Akina Nakamori, he said half-jokingly and half-seriously: "I'm going to be stumped this time." ”
I don't know if it's a delusion-it shouldn't be-Akina Nakamori seems to be quite happy to hear this.
"I'll teach you seriously. She said.
I also know that I am a crappy teacher, Akina Nakamori seriously assures.
"Then I'll wait for a lesson. Iwahashi Shinichi replied.
However, it is not possible to meet to learn origami recently. In the last few days of the year, the itinerary was full. We can only meet again after the year.
That's the way it goes......
"Actually, we will meet again in a few days. ”
The list of appearances for the Red and White Song Club has been announced, and Akina Nakamori and DREAMS COME TRUE are also on the list. However, what song will be sung, has not yet been announced.
According to the convention of the Red and White Song Club, it is like squeezing toothpaste to squeeze out the relevant information little by little.
In the matter of selling guanzi, NHK is not lost to others.
......
New Year's greeting cards are often written as soon as they enter December, as a person in the industry, people who have had several sides should also consider sending New Year's cards, the workload is huge, often unimportant New Year's cards are handed over to the staff to write, and important people write their own.
In addition to the New Year's card, before Christmas, Iwahashi Shinichi took a break to go to the department store to choose gifts for Christmas.
After accepting Miwa-chan's "Christmas Eve", it became a custom to exchange Christmas gifts with her every year. Two people who came from the end of poverty are keen to give each other all kinds of worthless little things.
It is true that it will not break the fee, but once it is perfunctory, it must be a big drama of fried soybeans.
In the end, the gift he chose for Miwa Sauce was a small flashlight.
It's not a flashlight for lighting, it's a small toy, and the light is in the shape of a star, and at the touch of a button, the star flashes.
It's a bit of a coaxing child, but Iwahashi Shin is confident, and Miwa-chan must be happy to get this gadget. She's such a girl.
This counter sells all these gadgets, and Iwahashi Shinichi finished selecting a flashlight, browsed around, and noticed a somewhat special globe.
He called the salesman and asked about the globe.
After listening to the salesman's explanation, Iwahashi Shinichi immediately decided to buy the globe.
......
On Christmas Eve, as soon as Shinichi Iwahashi was going to a party, he gave the gifts out in advance.
Miwa-chan received a small flashlight, and she really loved it, and pressed the button again and again against the wall like a child, but fortunately she didn't sing "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" while pressing it.
Incidentally, Miwa-chan gave Shinichi Iwahashi an ugly pen holder – or rather a pen holder full of personality.
You may find an alternative beauty when you look at it with an artistic eye, but Shinichi Iwahashi, who received the pen holder, will definitely not put it on his desk.
Forget it, it's not normal to expect Miwa-chan to give that kind of incomparably decent gift.
The small flashlight was given to Miwa-chan, and the globe was bought for Sachiko Kamaike.
It wasn't a Christmas gift for her, but a debut gift for her.
With their debut approaching, ZARD has a lot to prepare, and he is busy running all day, but the itinerary has nothing to do with the producer Shinichi Iwahashi, so it's rare to see them these days.
Before Christmas, the band went to the company's rehearsal room to perform together, and Shinichi Iwahashi called Sachiko Kamaike and gave her the globe.
"It's a gift to congratulate you on your debut. Iwahashi said.
Sachiko Kamaike took the gift box, opened it and looked at it, a little surprised, "Globe......?" It's a terrestrial globe that looks a little different, with an electronic pen attached.
It's weird no matter how you look at it.
"When I first met Sachiko-san, Sachiko-san told me about dreams and a globe. ”
Speaking of these things, Sachiko Kamaike showed a reserved expression, she was wearing orthodontic braces, and now she looked a little unnatural. In Karuizawa, after it was decided that she was going to have her teeth straightened, the matter of coming back was put on the agenda and immediately arranged.
The sooner you settle down on a straightening thing, the better.
Sachiko Kamaike also remembers telling Shinichi Iwahashi that she dreamed of a job traveling the world when she was a student, and she told him about the globe she bought as a student at her home in Hatano City.
Now, Shinichi Iwahashi sent her a globe?
"This globe is very advanced, Sachiko-san. Shinichi Iwahashi explained, "But don't underestimate it. As he spoke, he motioned for Sachiko Kamaike to put the globe on the table.
He took the battery out of his pocket and put it in the globe.
"It's lit up. ”
Sachiko Kamaike looked at the globe.
Shinichi Iwahashi picked up the short electronic pen and tapped it between the two places on the globe. Sachiko Kamaike then saw a kilometer figure displayed on the surface of the globe.
"Is this the distance between the two places?" she said, thinking for a moment.
Iwahashi nodded cautiously, "That's right. He smiled, "You can't underestimate this globe, right?"
Now, in the latest model, after powering up, you can use the built-in electronic pen to click on the two cities, and the distance between the two places will be shown - however, only large cities and large cities are supported.
But even so, such a gadget is enough to make people feel fresh.
Sachiko-san wanted to be a singer, and she also wanted to have a job that allowed her to travel the world. Shinichi Iwahashi said to her, "It's not like I'm bragging about the fact that my job as a singer is a great opportunity to travel around the world." ”
Sometimes I go abroad to go on location, sometimes I go to a foreign studio to record, sometimes I go to exchange and learn from foreign musicians, in short, there are many opportunities.
However, the premise is that the band's sales and prospects make the record company feel that such fanfare is worth it.
"On that globe in Sachiko-san's house, your dreams are pinned. This globe, once in a while when you want to see the distance of your dreams, you might as well click on it. ”
Shinichi Iwahashi encouraged her, "I think my dreams will come true." ”
Giving her the globe was both an encouragement and an echo of what she had mentioned about her dreams.
At the same time, it is also a blessing to the band.
Sachiko Kamaike looked at the globe, picked up the electronic pen, clicked on Tokyo, and gently turned it again, landing on London. On the globe, the distance between the two places appeared.
Dreams can come true......
She thanked Iwahashi Shin, "Thank you, Iwahashi-san. I love this gift very much. ”
