Chapter 134: The Producer
Writing a song for Kim Jong Kook was decided more than two months ago, but at that time, Choi Jun Seok had no time to really implement this work because of that terrible itinerary, and it was not until the end of August that Choi Jun Seok ended the activity period of his album "True Love in the World", and there was that "leisure and leisure" to prepare for Kim Jong Kook's return album. ,!
After a month of 'hard work', Choi Jun-seok finally completed several songs that satisfied him, among which Kim Jong Kook chose two, one is "Today is More Than Yesterday", and the other is "It's Not That Simple".
Among them, "Today is more than yesterday" is a song that praises love and is a sincere confession of love, although this is a lyrical song of love completed by Choi Jun-seok in the real sense of 'alone', but at this time, Choi Jun-seok is no longer the rookie who stayed up for a month to compose music in Chapter 134, but he couldn't fill in the lyrics. His reputation as a gifted composer is nationally recognized, and his monstrous collection of 9 classics has made him the king of lyrics resounding throughout the music world.
Therefore, after more than a month of hard work, Choi Jun-seok's real 'alone' composition, lyrics, and music composition were all completed by him, and finally completed his first love lyric song.
"Today is more than yesterday" with a light style, cheerful melody, a highly infectious chorus, and beautiful lyrics, it is a superior work that even Huang Can is very satisfied with. The chorus part of "I will love you more today than yesterday" echoes the meaning of Kim Jong Kook's return after two years, so Kim Jong Kook decided to include this song on the album on the spot after listening to it.
The other song, "It's Not That Simple", is different. First of all, in terms of tone, the key of "It's Not That Simple" is a little lower than that of "Today is More Than Yesterday"; secondly, "It's Not That Simple" is a little slower in melody; finally, the emotions expressed in "It's Not That Simple in Chapter 134" are more real and profound.
The biggest difference between the two songs can be seen from the lyrics. At the beginning of "Today is More Than Yesterday", it is "will I cherish you more than I love myself, no matter who asks me, I can answer, my love is you", these gorgeous text embellishments, the most obvious is the happiness and positivity of "I will love you more today than yesterday".
And "It's Not That Simple" does not have these gorgeous and beautiful embellishments, but expresses the emotion of love in the most simple words, and the climax of the climactic part is a call for 'falling in love is not so easy, everyone has his temper, after the age of love and dreaming, vigorous is not as calm as calm', the unpretentious lyrics make people who have experienced the most brilliant and noisy moments of life moved inexplicably, yes, love is not so easy, vigorous and not as calm, this is a real portrayal of life!
No matter how impetuous the world is, how noisy the outside world is, it will eventually fall silent, and after you have experienced all kinds of qiē, what will always be left to you is the hope of peace and tranquility in your heart.
If "Today Is More Than Yesterday" is a positive, cheerful and upward movement, then "It's Not That Simple" is a piece of life that puts aside false exaggeration and exposes the real life.
Therefore, when the 'Triple Crown' who has experienced two of the most glorious stages of his life - Kim Jong Kook listened to this song "It's Not That Simple", he was even more emotional and moved, sure enough, it was right to find this kid to invite him to sing, this is simply writing out his heart's feelings, this kid is really worthy of the title of the king of lyrical music!
However, this also gives birth to another question, that is, which one should Kim Jong Kook's comeback album choose as the title song?
The title song of an album is very important, because in addition to determining the style of your album, it is also the route that the singer will take in the next period of time, and it is also about the image of a star, so there is no room for a trace of difference.
Don't you see, even Lee Hyori has a headache about the main hit? For the main go-girl", he even had a dispute with the president, and no one could convince anyone. In the end, it was for the sake of cooperating with Choi Jun-seok that the president agreed to Lee Hyo-ri's choice. Even Choi Jun-seok struggled for a long time because of whether to choose "There Is No More Such a Person" or "The Scream", the main theme of the first episode of love.
So, don't think that if you have a good song for you, you won't have any troubles, you will find that the question remains, that is, which one should I choose as my main song?
Although it's not the first time he's recorded an album, but the problem of choosing the title of the album like this is really not so entangled, although there were problems with choosing songs before, but I really haven't encountered a situation like today where I like both songs so much, so, watching "Today is More Than Yesterday", and then looking at "It's Not That Simple", Kim Jong Kook is entangled!
Kim Jong Kook, who couldn't make up his mind, simply asked Choi Jun-seok, anyway, he is the original creator of the song, which is better or worse, it is estimated that no one has more say than him.
"You say, which song did you choose as my title song, "Today is More Than Yesterday" or "It's Not That Simple"?"
Seeing Kim Jong Kook talking about business, Choi Jun-seok also got serious, he put his hands around his chest, muttered for a while, and then said thoughtfully, "First of all, in terms of the level of the songs, in fact, I don't think the two songs are much different"
Kim Jong Kook also nodded in agreement, if it weren't for the fact that both songs were so good, he wouldn't have had such a headache.
Seeing that Kim Jong Kook also agreed, Choi Jun Seok continued, "Then the remaining question is, brother, the style of your album is going to go, from this point of view, you can roughly know how to choose"
"Hmm" Kim Jong Kook seemed to understand something, but he wasn't sure, so he said with a little hesitation, "What do you mean?"
Choi Jun-seok did not directly express his opinion, but continued to explain, "Actually, "Today is more than yesterday" and "It's Not That Simple" are two completely different emotional routes, one is full of hope, the other is relatively profound, although it is the same lyrical song, but it has its own style, I believe that with my brother's strength, I can completely control these two styles, but," Speaking of this, Cui Junxi sincerely expressed his opinion, "If it is to choose the title song for my brother's return album, I am more optimistic about "Today is more than yesterday"
"Hmm," Kim Jong Kook also muttered thoughtfully, "Do you mean that you want me to show an image full of faith and hope?"
"That's right" Cui Junxi saw that he didn't seem to have any objections, so he breathed a sigh of relief, because this way to determine the route of a singer is the power that only a person who makes a singer has the power, and the person who makes a person is not so easy to do, he needs more professional knowledge, in addition to the grasp of popular elements, he also needs a deep understanding of the singer himself, and he also needs to think about all aspects that the singer faces later, and the knowledge in it can not be said for three days and three nights.
And Choi Jun-seok is the first time to be a producer, before his own album was grasped by Huang Can, an old fritter, and Choi Jun-seok's route was also stereotyped in the lyrical aspect, which in addition to Huang Can's opinion, Choi Jun-seok's own willingness is also a factor. After a long period of hard work, the image of the lyrical king - Choi Jun-seok finally came out.
As a rookie-level Zuò person, Choi Jun-seok is very careful, and he has been discussing Kim Jong Kook's album with Huang Can for a long time, and at the same time discussing with Kim Jong Kook himself, and even slept in the studio for several days in a row, in order to make this album more perfectly, because this is related to Kim Jong Kook's return, and Choi Jun Seok's pressure is not small.
After this period of thinking and hard work, Choi Jun-seok finally came up with a more perfect idea, that is, to add a kind of man's warmth and hope in addition to the image of Jong Kook's affectionate man, so he decided to use "Today is More Than Yesterday" as Kim Jong Kook's title song.
And Kim Jong Kook seems to have understood, so Choi Jun Seok seized the opportunity to say his last thoughts, "Because my brother has been out of the entertainment industry for two years, and now he wants to return, he should let everyone see a new Kim Jong Kook, full of confidence, happiness, hope and sincerity, and a too deep image is not suitable"
After speaking, Choi Jun-seok closed his mouth tightly and waited for Kim Jong-kook's opinion quite nervously, after all, this is Choi Jun-seok's first time as a ruler, and he has to be responsible for another person's life, say don't be nervous, who are you bluffing~
However, from the outside, I didn't see that he was nervous, only from his graying finger bones could I see that he was actually quite nervous.
Kim Jong Kook was silent for a long time, as if he was thinking about the feasibility of this plan, and his famous squinting eyes were half open and half closed, so that you couldn't see his thoughts at all, which made Cui Junxi, who had been nervously observing Kim Jong Kook's expression, feel a little ridiculous in his heart, it turns out that there is such a benefit to small eyes?
"I know" Just when Choi Jun-seok was waiting anxiously, he finally heard Kim Jong Kook's answer.
“???”
"You're right, "Today is more than yesterday" is more suitable for my return image" Kim Jong Kook's thin lips pulled up slightly and smiled.
"Brother?" Choi Jun-seok didn't seem to be quite convinced.
"Joon Seok, I'll leave it to you next" Kim Jong Kook smiled and nodded, and sincerely asked this younger brother. This means acknowledging his efforts in making the album and officially confirming that he is the producer of his return album, not just the composer of a few songs.
"Ahh
"Okay, Choi Jun-seok, isn't it time for us to work next" As a pro-deceased Kim Jong Kook, how could he not know his nervousness, so he deliberately quipped.
"Uh-he-he~" Choi Jun-seok, who was seen to be nervous, smiled embarrassedly, but then unceremoniously shot back, "If my brother doesn't feel hungry, I don't care"
"Ahh
"Haha"!!
