Chapter 134: Anger Comes from Compassion (Part 1)
Comfortable.
Warm.
Relaxed.
This is the style that Xu Wei has maintained since his third album "Time Walk", without the heaviness of other rock music, and no longer restless and roaring.
Just a simple expression of the yearning for beautiful things, the listener no longer has the feeling of hormones, blood boiling, and catharsis, but in the relaxed chanting, the audience is brought to a brilliant place.
After singing the lead song for the first time, Lin Xuan's body turned slightly, and he and Li Xiong got together, standing opposite each other.
The two echoed with musical instruments, their fingers fluctuating on the guitar, Zhang Fei's drums and Li Bi's guitar were also added, and they began to intermerate the solo of some instruments.
This solo is also the type that sounds crisp and pleasant, and it is not as restless as it used to be.
This time, the whole stage presentation was very different from the past, it seemed very relaxed and relaxed, and Lin Xuan continued to sing:
[Through the dark years
I also felt hesitant
The moment you look down
Only then did I discover the road under my feet]
In Lin Xuan's very warm voice and pleasant accompaniment, the audience shook their bodies gently, feeling that the fatigue of their daily life was washed away at once.
That feeling is like sitting on the recliner in the courtyard of the farmhouse when the sun sets, quietly watching the orange sun set little by little, the colorful glow fills the sky, the whole body and mind are opened, only to feel that the front is vast, and the trivial things in life are temporarily left behind, and the mood is particularly quiet and peaceful.
Lin Xuan sang very comfortably, his voice was slightly raised, and he sang the last few words:
[The free world in my heart.]
So clear and lofty
Bloom and never wither
Blue Lotus】
At the end of the recital, Lin Xuan sang softly while playing the guitar: "Lalalala." ”
The audience also sang along with the "lalala".
The epilogue came to an abrupt end, and Lin Xuan smiled and said, "Thank you." ”
Second, many bands at the scene exchanged heads and discussions.
This time the style of the two previous rock works has changed a lot, and it is the same folk rock style as his previous song "Life is More Than Present". ”
"The composition and arrangement are very nice, but not conventional, and I love it. ”
"The melodious degree of the single round melody, this song is undoubtedly the best rock song in these episodes, which makes people not so nervous and nervous, and they are well immersed in the music. ”
“……”
The first scene.
Amid the applause and cheers of the audience, Lin Xuan, Li Bi and the others stood together, waiting for Wu Weixin's routine visit.
"I like this performance very much, it makes people feel no pressure from beginning to end, very comfortable, Mr. Qin Chu, what do you think of this performance of the White Night Band?" Wu Weixin turned his head and smiled.
Qin Chu smiled and applauded:
"I like it very much, in recent years, rock has been demonized by some people in China, I think rock should be angry and screaming, of course, some rock music is like that, but rock is very inclusive music, this kind of folk rock that sounds very comfortable I really like. ”
After a pause, Qin Chu said:
"The times are advancing, a lot of rock music in my time was roaring, there are a lot of factors of the times in it, the times are different, people don't have so many angry things now, why do you have to be angry to roar, this kind of more relaxed rock music I think is one of the future directions, and it may be liked by more people. ”
Lin Xuan nodded slightly.
Times are different, and music no longer carries deep and grand social propositions as before, but begins to express the expression of personal emotions.
"Dream Chasing Pure Heart", which was widely circulated in the previous life, is not angry at all, but very inspirational, and "The Brightest Star in the Night Sky" is not angry, it is very warm and bright.
Both of these songs have been loved by people, which shows that the theme expressed by rock music is indeed different from before, and this kind of positive energy or the theme of expressing personal yearning is more popular with people, and people no longer need anything too heavy.
Wu Weixin nodded, turned his head to look at Lin Xuan, and said with a smile:
"Lin Xuan, this time we discussed the topic of rock and roll spirit by the way, many people think that anger and rebellion are rock and roll spirit, just now Mr. Qin Chu said that rock and roll is very inclusive, what do you think?"
Lin Xuan said without hesitation:
"Rock music is, of course, very inclusive music, and anyone who knows a little bit of Western rock music knows that I agree with Mr. Qin's point of view. ”
Lin Xuan chuckled lightly and said:
"I found that some of our music fans in China don't know why they have to be angry and rebellious if they always think that rock 'n' roll.
Rock is just a type of music created by people, rock itself has no spirit, its spirit is given to it by people, so the spirit of rock is the spirit of people.
How can people be angry all the time, where is there such a big hatred? People will have sadness, they will be angry, they will also have joy and expectation, so rock should be angry, in my opinion, it is a very narrow view. ”
Lin Xuan remembered some rock music fans in his previous life, in order to distinguish himself from those "popular" people who listened to pop music, and to make himself stand at the top of the chain of contempt, so he often buttoned all kinds of big hats to rock music, and said that Mayday was pseudo-shake and Wang Feng was pseudo-shaken at every turn.
You see, Wang Feng's songs are so inspirational, not angry at all, what kind of rock 'n' roll!
In fact, Lin Xuan didn't like some of Wang Feng's later music so much, but it was not because of the inspirational theme, but because some of his songs fell into a routine creative mode in order to cater to the audience, and there was no personal thinking and expression before.
Those who talk about pseudo-shake at every turn are definitely those who haven't heard much rock music, just to blindly pretend, from the point of view and motivation, it's really too low.
Listening to songs and music, I still hear a sense of superiority, what to pretend?!
People can never be superior just because they have listened to those songs, watched those movies, and read those books.
Lin Xuan smiled and continued:
"Also, the anger of rock music depends on where it comes from, if the anger of the creator comes from me being so good, why don't you garbage listeners appreciate me, you are so stupid, this kind of anger is superficial and does not stand up to scrutiny.
If the anger of the creator comes from the concern for the situation of a certain group of people and the compassion for social injustice, such anger is valuable and can lead people to think, and the real anger should come from compassion. ”
Wu Weixin applauded: "Well said!"
The audience also applauded.
Many bands at the second scene also applauded.
