Chapter 713: Let's Go Dancing (4/4, for Despair, AEA's Ten Thousand Rewards)
There was no grand press conference, only a slight mention on the microbroadcast, Yang Yi and Murphy's two versions of "The Love of My Life" were completed on March 7, and they quietly landed on major music websites.
However, after the release of this song, the sales were not as hot as usual, and there was even a cool feeling!
This is not because of the lack of publicity, but because the song was divided into the Cantonese section, except for fans in Cantonese-speaking areas who chose to buy the single without hesitation, fans in other regions, except for the particularly hardcore, have been discouraged......
Even if some passers-by and fans hesitated again and again and bought this song, without any story background, they were confused, even if the melody was moving, but they felt that they had lost the evaluation suddenly not very high.
But fans who can understand it and have a little life experience still give this song a very high evaluation.
To buy or not to buy? A lot of people are waiting. Looking at the different rhetoric in the comments, the watchers flinched.
However, the media engaged in the music industry have shaken up their spirits, and the songs written by Yang Yi can't even squeeze into the top 50 sales, which is a very rare thing!
......
Li Shijian, a professional music critic, was hired to write a music review column for Voice of China. Although with the development of the Internet, the audience of music review columns in traditional media has decreased considerably, but "Voice of China" magazine has actively improved and cooperated with the company's Tian Lai Music website, and music news and music review articles in print media will also be uploaded to the Internet for music fans.
Therefore, Li Shijian, who has unique insights and sophisticated analysis and writing in music, still has a lot of fans, and most fans are similar to Li Shijian's favorite music style, and they can find their favorite music from Li Shijian's column
On this day, Li Shijian received an invitation from the editor-in-chief to comment on Yang Yi's new song "The Love of My Life".
Of course, the editor-in-chief has some ill intentions, and he hopes that Li Shijian can analyze the reason why Yang Yi's new song is cold, which is convenient for them to make a big fuss in the news module!
"I'll listen to it first!" Li Shijian replied nonchalantly.
Li Shijian's impression of Yang Yi is still very good, and Li Shijian has given high praise to songs such as "Listening to the Sea" and "Crossing the Sea to See You".
What kind of song will this "Love of My Life" be?
Wouldn't it still be a song to show affection?
To be honest, Li Shijian feels a little tired of listening to Yang Yi and Murphy singing love songs, and sweet songs can't express unforgettable feelings like "Listening to the Sea"!
But before making a judgment, Li Shijian still emptied his head, forgot who Yang Yi was, forgot who Murphy was, forgot the songs they had sung before, and then began to listen to the music.
The first song Li Shijian listened to was Yang Yi's version, which was similar to what Yang Yi sang to the old man at the beginning, and the accompaniment was very pure, and it was a simple guitar solo.
But just the prelude, Li Shijian heard some flavors!
Unlike normal pop tunes, the beautiful and graceful string sounds seem to be a bit exotic!
"Slow, very slow! The melody of this song should be a sad tone!" Li Shijian came to his senses.
Then, Yang Yi's singing voice came, although the Cantonese lyrics made Li Shijian frown slightly, he could understand some Cantonese, but after all, he was not an authentic native Cantonese speaker, and now it sounded a little difficult, but Yang Yi's singing style made Li Shijian refreshed!
It's not popular at all, it's not retro at all, maybe it's more appropriate to describe it as old and melancholy, this kind of singing Li Shijian has never heard of it, it's very unique!
But it is not abrupt, Li Shijian is very comfortable to listen to, especially at that time, the low, sometimes high-pitched singing, when it is low, it makes people seem to be confused, and when it is high-pitched, it seems to be in a barren wilderness, and a desolate taste arises spontaneously......
"The sea of bitterness turns up love and hate, and it is difficult to escape fate in the world......"
Li Shijian felt as if his heart had been pierced by arrows from the sky, and he felt a kind of grief that he was powerless to struggle. The meaning of the lyrics doesn't seem to be carefully pondered, and Yang Yi's singing voice alone is enough to make Li Shijian fall in.
After listening to the song, Li Shijian found that his eyes were a little moist, but he hadn't figured out what this song was singing yet?
Three hours later, Li Shijian took off his headphones, but he flipped through the pages of his slow recording, but he had no intention of writing a music review immediately.
I saw that Li Shijian couldn't wait to pick up his mobile phone and dialed the phone: "Lao Pu, have you slept? If you don't sleep, get up quickly, I recommend you to listen to a song, no, it's two songs, two ways to sing a song." ”
"It's not a Chinese song, it's your Cantonese song, and I, a person who doesn't speak Cantonese, thinks it's good when I hear it! ”
Yang Yi wrote. That's right, the Yang Yi who wrote "It's Better to Not See" and "Bicycle". ”
"Both versions are good, Murphy can actually sing Cantonese songs, and I didn't expect to sing so well. But I prefer Yang Yi's version, not that Murphy's is bad, her accompaniment is richer, and her singing is glorious enough. But Yang Yi's version is very special, guitar solo, and singing is also the first time I've seen it. You'll know when you hear it!
In addition to looking for Lao Pu, Li Shijian also gave Amway to a few familiar Hong Kong City music critics, and it was not until the middle of the night that he excitedly wrote his own music reviews.
However, it is clear that his editor-in-chief is going to be disappointed!
......
The response to Cantonese songs was not enthusiastic, in fact, Yang Yi and Murphy were psychologically prepared, so although many media were watching their jokes, Yang Yi and Murphy did not care, and their lives were not affected.
It was another weekend, and while eating breakfast, Xixi grabbed a small spoon and asked with interest, "Baba, where are we going to play today?"
Yang Yi smiled and asked, "Where do you want to play?"
Just as the little girl was thinking about it, Murphy suddenly gave a suggestion: "Xixi, do you like dancing?" Or, let's go to the studio with my mother today to practice dancing! ”
Xiao Yu was born at the end of November last year, and now Murphy has also given birth for nearly four months! Her body is recovering well, and simple jogging weight loss exercises are no longer able to meet her needs, so after a doctor's examination a few days ago, she can dance, and Murphy can't wait to dig out the dancing shoes and costumes that she has bought a month ago.
"Okay!" The little girl's eyes lit up, she nodded happily, and giggled, "Ma Ma, I like to dance, and then, and then I will dance two dances, three dances, Teacher Shen taught us to dance!
As she spoke, Xixi was still energetic, she looked at Murphy expectantly, and said, "Mama, can we ask Kiki to dance together?" and Xin'er, Lu Weisha, ......."
She also counted.
This little guy, when she grows up, talks more and more about her little friend. Although Xixi is still willing to play with her parents now, in the future, when she grows up again, when she is in her teens and twenties, and when adolescence and rebellion come, will she still be willing to accompany her old father and mother?
Of course, this is still a long time later, but it is still a little poignant to think about it once in a while.
Murphy reluctantly looked at Yang Yi and smiled bitterly, but Murphy still agreed to his daughter's request, anyway, the dance studio built for them by the studio was very large, enough for this group of children to dance in it!
But after a few rounds of phone calls, only Louvisa's mother, Maria, agreed.
Lan Xin was taken by her mother to Jinling City to reunite with Boss Lan this weekend, Yang Luoqi, who danced the best, was going to attend a tutoring class today, and Chen Shiyun and Nan Zhaoyu's parents were not available, so they could only say sorry to Xixi.
Fortunately, at least there is Lu Weisha, and while Xixi regrets it, she doesn't regret it too much.
