Chapter 871: Taking the stage
Jin Yufan's face couldn't help but change greatly, what will be the consequences, it is still necessary to say that the performance will definitely not be able to continue, even if he can insist, but the band does not cooperate, the music does not cooperate, and it will greatly affect his performance at that time, and even completely make the performance a joke, lose face and lose face, and then it will become a headline the next day, and everyone will make fun of it for a while.
Seeing Jin Yufan's face change drastically, Taylor Swift also laughed: "It seems that you also understand the consequences, so you can see that many times singers will have their own band members, not like you in Asia, unless it is a band, or a rock style singer, you will establish your own band." On the American side, it's necessary to build your own band so that someone doesn't deliberately get into trouble with you. ”
seemed to think of something, Taylor Swift couldn't help but sigh and continued: "Especially the more popular you are, the more you should pay attention, many organizers and program teams are happy to see big stars lose face, and the most they can apologize for may be indifferent and not admit it, and your ugliness will become the subject of their attention." ”
"Kim, you have to remember that in the future, you must have your own band members, whether it is a formal stage show or a performance on the show, you must bring your own band, so as not to be found by the other party to take advantage of you. If you really can't help it, you would rather choose to sing a cappella, not to be accompanied by musical instruments, and explain to the outside world that you are confident in your singing skills. Therefore, in your free time, you can practice your singing skills more, which may save you from being embarrassed one day in the future. ”
This is Taylor Swift's reminder and warning to himself, and Jin Yufan also knows that he must remember these things, otherwise he will suffer in this regard in the future, which will be really embarrassing.
"Yes, I see. Taylor. Thanks for the reminder. Remembering Taylor's words with his heart, Jin Yufan smiled and thanked him.
Taylor Swift just smiled and didn't say anything, and the reminder he had just given to Jin Yufan was also because he was worried that Jin Yufan was not familiar with some things in the American music scene, and after he reminded him, he believed that there would be nothing of his own business in the future.
Taylor Swift has known and investigated Kim Yu-beom. A president who debuted at such a young age in 2001 and has grown into the president of one of Korea's top music agencies over the years, in addition to his own talent and talent in music, if he had a bad brain, he would not have come to this point.
In other words, with this reminder, Taylor Swift believes that Jin Yufan knows what he should do, and even if Jin Yufan doesn't do anything, he will really suffer a big loss in the future. It doesn't matter what happened to Taylor Swift, anyway, Taylor Swift reminded Jin Yufan, and Jin Yufan didn't listen or didn't pay attention, it was completely self-inflicted.
To be able to become a member of Taylor Swift's band, there is no doubt about his strength, and after only a few attempts, he can easily play the tune of "LoveTheWayYouLie", plus the tacit understanding between the band members. The ensemble played a few times, and basically there were no major problems. At least it's OK to perform on stage.
"Kim, I heard that in your Korea, there is going to be a rehearsal in front of the stage, right?" After seeing Kim Yu-beom nodding, Taylor asked with a smile, "Then now, do you want to rehearse first." ”
Pointing to his bandmates, Taylor shrugged his shoulders and said, "You know. In the American music scene, unless it is a special or important occasion, there will generally be no rehearsal. ”
Jin Yufan nodded and didn't say anything, Jin Yufan knew this very well, maybe this is the difference between Eastern and Western cultures.
In the East. That is, Asia, especially Southeast Asia, not to mention anything else, conclusion singers, often when performing, singers will rehearse, the more important the occasion and stage, the stricter the rehearsal, and even many rehearsals. The purpose of the rehearsal is not to make the show perform better, but the most important thing is to go smoothly, seek stability, and avoid mistakes.
In the West, represented by the United States, singers generally prefer to play improvisation, rarely play any rehearsals, and everyone relies more on their own interest and strength to play.
Of course, rehearsals are not uncommon, but they are often rehearsed on important occasions, such as the performance of the Grammys. However, many awesome singers in the United States, even if they are Grammys, will not have rehearsals, and their strength and confidence in themselves are absolutely bursting. If you let these people go to the rehearsal, the other party will think that you look down on his strength, and on the contrary, they will be furious.
What really allows American singers to concentrate on rehearsals is probably their own concerts. Because the concert is a completely different situation, it belongs to its own stage, and the success of the concert is also very helpful to its own fame and influence.
However, in Jin Yufan's view, it is estimated that the greater reason is because of the most direct ticket revenue of the concert. If it is a group of singers with the biggest names in the United States, the income from a concert is at least a few million dollars, or even more tens of millions of dollars.
If you play tour, it will be even more terrifying, such as Michael Jackson's tour, the income is at least hundreds of millions of dollars.
With such huge benefits, it is estimated that the biggest reason why singers can really put away their hearts and wait for rehearsals with their hearts.
"So, now we can only do a simple rehearsal here, the most important thing is your cooperation with the band, is there a problem?"
Jin Yufan couldn't help frowning, and said lightly: "No." ”
For Taylor Swift's commanding tone, Jin Yufan is very unaccustomed and a little unhappy. If he hadn't known that Taylor Swift was originally this character, he didn't really order himself to do anything, and the starting point was also for his own good, otherwise, with Jin Yufan's temper, he would have turned his face a long time ago.
Seeing that Jin Yufan agreed, Taylor Swift didn't think much about it, turned to his band members and nodded, "OK, Paul, let's sing a few times first." ”
Paul, a guitarist in his thirties, was the bandleader of Taylor Swift, and his beard gave him a strong look, and Paul nodded and said, "OK, no problem." ”
Let's talk about it. Paul didn't say a word, but just started playing the guitar and explained it with his own actions.
With the beginning of Paul's start, the other members of the band also played their own bands very tacitly and cooperated with Paul. Moment. The music for "LoveTheWayYouLie" began to play.
As the melody of "LoveTheWayYouLie" sounded, Taylor Swift was not polite, took the lyrics of "LoveTheWayYouLie", and began to sing a cappella in earnest.
As soon as Taylor spoke, Jin Yufan could feel Taylor's singing skills even more. Taylor's cappella just now made Kim Yu-beom feel very good, but he didn't expect to match the music to give people a better feeling.
The country singer's unique folk voice, coupled with Taylor Swift's outstanding singing skills, is more suitable for the female part of "LoveTheWayYouLie" than Jessica.
At least that's what Jin Yufan personally thinks. Taylor Swift's female voice sounds very gentle and intriguing.
As Taylor Swift finished singing his part, Jin Yufan's explosive rap began to explode out of his mouth like he didn't want money, a fast series of raps, and very explosive, especially since Jin Yufan is Asian. However, he is able to rap in English, and is very accurate and clear in terms of articulation. This scene instantly surprised Taylor Swift and the band members.
Now, Taylor Swift understands why Kim Yu-fan is known as a king in Asia, especially in Southeast Asia, and even a phenomenal star.
And the members of the band also felt Kim Yufan's strength from Kim Yu-beom's RAP in front of him, and their views on Kim Yu-beom also changed.
Because there is no special stage for rehearsals for Kim Yu-fan and others. The rehearsal was also in the open space behind the stage, where a very random group of people gathered around playing musical instruments and singing softly, and this scene was also watched by the other people backstage.
Everyone looked at Jin Yufan's side, and they couldn't help but pause their eyes slightly, and left in a hurry after a few seconds. Continuing with their own things.
Being able to pause for such a short time for a few seconds can be said to be for the sake of Taylor Swift's face, and it is because he is a little surprised to see Taylor Swift appear, so he will pause meaningfully.
But after reacting, everyone didn't continue to pay attention to Taylor Swift, but continued to do what they were supposed to do.
This kind of final rehearsal and practice behind the backstage is definitely the most common scene behind the stage, and everyone is here to perform, and everyone has been to various music festivals countless times, and everyone has long been used to it.
After trying it a few times, it felt good, and Taylor Swift was also a little excited: "Kim, I didn't expect your RAP to be so exciting, I think that when we perform "LoveTheWayYouLie", it will definitely shock everyone." Now, I can imagine that when the countless fans hear our performance, they will come from all over and watch the crowd rush in, and it will be a great feeling. ”
Looking at the excited Taylor, Jin Yufan was speechless, I really don't know what Taylor, or many big-name singers in the United States, think, why the music festival doesn't go to the main stage, but likes to go to other stages to perform.
I like to see what kind of scene where there was no one in front of the stage, but once he appeared and was discovered by the fans, countless fans came from all over the world, instantly making the open space in front of his stage flooded.
Jin Yufan estimates that this is also the way many big-name singers are confident in their own strength and self-confidence, and they don't care about the stage, this way of being able to manipulate and attract fans has also made countless big-name singers gradually like other stages, making the main stage of the festival gradually fade.
However, what is more important should be the way the singers show their muscles to everyone, and tell everyone about their popularity and influence.
Eh~~~ Of course, if there are two singers who don't like each other, and there are contradictions and hatreds, this is also a good way to slap the face. As long as your strength is stronger than the other party and the other party is performing, you start to perform on the lampstand on the stage next to you, and grab all the fans in front of the other party's stage to your side.
UltraMusicFestival is one of the top music festivals in the United States, although UltraMusicFestival is a DJ-based music festival. However, this does not mean that UltraMusicFestival rejects music styles other than DJs, nor does it enforce that DJ music must be played at UltraMusicFestival.
Therefore, for Kim Yu-beom's preparation for the stage, although there is some surprise, it is also a temporary application, but it has the recommendation and guarantee of Taylor Swift. At the same time, the results of "LoveTheWayYouLie" on the Billboard were there, and Kim Yu-beom was allowed to perform on stage.
After more than half an hour, Kim Yu-fan and Taylor Swift kept chatting, and finally under the notice of the staff, they learned that the next stage was the stage of "LoveTheWayYouLie".
"Hi MAN, how are you preparing. Taylor asked with a grin as he looked at Kim Yu-beom.
"I don't feel much, it's just a performance on stage, and it's a music festival, so it's not too demanding. Anyway, as long as it's fun, the song "LoveTheWayYouLie" should be easier to make the atmosphere than your country music. ”
Taylor undeniably loosened his shoulders and began to prepare. said that he was preparing, but in fact he didn't prepare anything at all, you must know that Taylor Swift is a country singer, since she is a country singer. How could you be prepared while waiting for the stage?
You must know the biggest characteristic of country singers, that is, they are not prepared. Even for the most important occasion, it is the same for a country singer, there is no need to prepare carefully, just a pair of sneakers, a pair of jeans, and an ordinary top. I love to wear braids or not, and I love to wear hats or not, so I just go directly to the stage to perform.
For country singers, what is a singing costume, a costume specially prepared for a certain stage or a certain performance. That's simply not possible.
Seeing that Taylor Swift simply tied a ponytail for his hair, even if it was done, what else could Jin Yufan say.
This time I came to Miami to participate in the music festival, which was originally a temporary decision, and I definitely didn't think about performing on stage before I came, so now Jin Yufan has nothing but people.
Seeing that Taylor was so casual, Jin Yufan laughed when he thought about it, anyway, it's just a music festival, why bother to be so strict and serious, everyone just be casual.
Jin Yufan didn't prepare anything, and in the face of Taylor's inquiry, Jin Yufan pointed to his whole body with his finger, indicating that he was just like this.
"OK, guys, let's go!" As the singer's performance on the stage ended, it was now the turn of Kim Woo-beom and Taylor's stage. Seeing this situation, Taylor, as the master at this time, actually began to get up, clapped his hands and said loudly to the band members, and walked to the stage in the lead.
Seeing that he has completely become a passerby, Jin Yufan can't help pouting, how many years have passed, and he still has one day to become a supporting role for others.
Although he is a little uncomfortable, Jin Yufan also knows the current situation, and he is really not awesome in the United States, at least so far. It's better to say that he was able to perform on stage this time, if it weren't for Taylor Swift's face, it is estimated that the organizers would not have given Jin Yufan this chance.
"Nima, next time, next time at the music festival, Lao Tzu must be the protagonist and walk on the stage in everyone's attention and expectation. He gave himself a task in his heart, and Jin Yufan calmly followed Taylor Swift onto the stage.
Stepping on the stage and standing on the stage, Jin Yufan could clearly see that there were only a few thousand fans in the open space in front of the stage at this time. If it's not the main stage, if it's the main stage, there will be at least 10,000 fans waiting for the performance.
"Taylor!" But as Jin Yufan and Taylor took the stage, the sharp-eyed fans suddenly discovered Taylor Swift, and the fans who were originally relatively quiet suddenly became calm, originally because of the large place, tens of millions seemed sparse, and with the moment Taylor Swift appeared, everyone involuntarily rushed to this side of the stage.
And with the shouts of the fans, as well as the sound of phone calls, in less than half a minute, more and more fans came from all directions, instantly blocking the stage.
At this time, Jin Yufan, who was standing on the stage, looked at the fans from all directions, surging towards him like a tide, and the sense of visual impact was really shocking, and at the same time, it could also make me feel special and cool.
I'm just an outsider, standing on the sidelines and watching this scene and sighing like this, if I were the party involved, and the fans frantically rushed over because of my appearance, then that sense of pride and accomplishment would be so cool.
At this time, Jin Yufan somewhat understood why many big-name singers, when participating in music festivals, often abandoned the main stage that represented their identity, and chose to suddenly appear on other stages to perform.
Not to mention anything else, just watching the fans being attracted to themselves and frantically rushing over can definitely make any singer feel proud and proud, and that feeling is even more addictive than drugs. (To be continued......)
