Chapter 70: Disaster in the Red Face
At 8:40 p.m., after Xiao Qiong and Yu Yiyi finished singing, because of the outstanding performance of the two champions of Tianjing and Lingnan, the five senior musicians around Ye Luo thought that most of the highlights of this game had basically been killed.
The suspense that follows, there are only two.
The first is whether Chu Mo'er will still sing a new song tonight. The second is that Zhuo Ting and Yao Marriage have similar strengths, and who wins and who loses in the PK between them.
The course of the game, as they expected.
Yao Yu and Zhuo Ting, who appeared in the third group, are not bad, but the performance effect of these two people is only about the same as Zhao Ya and Tao Yitong, and they are weaker than Xiao Qiong and Yu Yiyi.
Ye Luo found that there was a very strange phenomenon here.
When Zhuo Ting was in the Shangdu Division, once she played her best, she was obviously a cut above the other players, and even faintly able to compete with Chu Moer and Song Yan, but when it came to the finals, as the strength of all the players around her was very strong, there was no weak person as a comparison, and Zhuo Ting's appearance was a little passerby.
Her soul music, with a limited audience, is a big constraint on her.
"As the champion of the Bashu region, this Yao Marriage's singing skills are really good, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a singer, he can't find anything wrong, but his style is not outstanding enough." Zu Shaoyuan commented.
"This kind of voice is a big deal in today's music scene." The other person shook his head.
After Zhuo Ting's group, there are Long Miaoqin and Zhou Zhi.
Zhou Zhi's singing voice is very sweet, some like Lan Yingying, her voice is better than Zhao Ya, and her singing skills are slightly inferior, and she is generally similar to Zhao Ya.
Long Miaoqin is known as the "Heavenly Dragon Girl", her facial features are beautiful, her pupils are royal blue, her appearance is like an Oriental, and her appearance is like a Westerner, quite exotic, from the appearance, she is a beauty at the same level as Chu Moer and Song Yan.
Her singing skills are just like her title, there is a special magnetism in her voice, her voice is extremely beautiful, her vocal range is wide, and her singing skills are also very mature. But tonight's selection of songs is obviously a bit conservative. She chose one of the top ten domestic golden songs last year, "One Step at a Time".
As one of last year's golden songs, this song is of course good, but after more than a year of singing on the streets, it is inevitable that people will be a little aesthetically fatigued.
"Long Miaoqin's interpretation of this version is not successful." There was a comment.
"In the first round, I originally wanted her to seek stability, but I didn't expect it to be a PK competition as soon as it came up." Long Miaoqin's music director smiled bitterly.
"It's fine." Zu Shaoyuan comforted, "Her voice is too distinctive, and her singing skills are also advantageous, compared to Zhou Zhi, it is stronger." ”
"Both of these are mentored by me, and whoever wins and who loses, it's actually pretty much the same for me." Long Miaoqin's music director said.
The singing of these two groups did not take much time, and soon, Song Yan's group appeared.
The first to appear was Song Yan's opponent, who came out of the repechage match like Zhuo Ting, and Yang Meihui, the third place in the Tianjing Division.
Yang Meihui is an authentic jazz singer. The mid-bass is very mellow and has an intoxicating voice. In the Tianjing Division, she and Zhao Ya were very close.
But Ye Luo was not very optimistic about her. Because jazz, like soul music, has a relatively small audience in China, it is obviously disadvantageous to participate in this kind of competition.
Jazz music, which plays complex rhythms and unique timbres, requires too much from the audience's appreciation.
Jazz is more suitable for small, live performances, and once on such a large stage, the charm will inevitably be greatly diminished without the support of the audience.
Ye Luo's disapproval seems to have some kind of curse effect. Yang Meihui's performance this time made a mistake that should not have been.
Her opening voice was very good, Ye Luo thought it was good at first, but when the long female voice at the beginning passed, as soon as the accompaniment came out, Ye Luo felt like she was laughing.
The vocals and accompaniment are not on the same scale, and Yang Meihui is taller.
This kind of mistake may be difficult for the layman to hear, but in the ears of Ye Luo and the on-site judges, it is clear.
When this kind of accident happens, the band on the scene has two choices, one is to follow the contestants to upgrade to accommodate the contestants, and the other is to maintain the original tune and wait for the contestants to find it back.
The vast majority of bands will choose the latter. Because the whole band temporarily raised the key, it was too risky, and if the tacit understanding was insufficient, some people rose and some people did not, then the effect of the performance would be a disaster.
The band at the scene did the same, but after half a song, Yang Meihui still didn't find it, and kept singing on the pitch of the accompaniment.
"How can this be ......" Opposite Ye Luo, a person covering his face with his hands was obviously Yang Meihui's guidance.
"I'm so nervous." Another person said, "When a person is in a state of tension, he will completely ignore the qiē around him. Yang Meihui has entered this state. ”
"Now Song Yan is lying down and entering the quarterfinals." Zu Shaoyuan said lightly.
On the live stage, Yang Meihui's first main chorus has been completed, and she has entered the transition of pure accompaniment.
At this moment, Ye Luo clearly saw that Yang Meihui's face had changed.
She finally realized this.
In the main chorus of the second paragraph, Yang Meihui finally found the pitch, but it was too late. And Fang Cai's mistake obviously hit her hard, and the singing of the second paragraph made Ye Luo feel completely spiritual, plain as water.
Once jazz loses its spirituality, it's nothing.
Yang Meihui stepped down gloomily, and Song Yan appeared on the stage.
Song Yan's choice of repertoire surprised Ye Luo. Instead of singing her preferred repertoire, which she had rehearsed several times beforehand, she used one of the alternatives.
However, Ye Luo immediately realized that Song Yan did this for a reason.
Under Yang Meihui's expression, there is no need for Song Yan to go all out, it is better to use the best rehearsed song in the next competition.
Although I vaguely felt that it was a little inappropriate for Song Yan to do this, Ye Luo, the music director, was only in name after all, so he had to shake his head and let her go.
Song Yan's alternative is also one of last year's top ten golden songs, "Red Face and Troubled Water".
And Song Yan's appearance on the stage is also clearly like a red face and trouble, so beautiful that people don't want to do anything else, they just want to be able to have her.
Although this song is an alternative, Song Yan's singing is perfect, she did not use her best high notes, but sang the whole song in a shallow and low way, completely singing the artistic conception of the whole song.
Both singing skills and emotion, full of full score table xiàn.
"That's good." Zu Shaoyuan bowed his head, and his tone was full of admiration.
"It's very good, on the same level as Xiao Qiong."
"I watched her competition in the competition area, and she was full of momentum at that time, but you can see that she was very restrained tonight, and she sang the love xù, completely enveloping the whole song, full of charm. This is a singer mature table xiàn. ”
"This change in style should have been corrected by a musical guide."
After one of the people said this, the five people in the room turned their eyes to Ye Luo.
Although they didn't say anything to Ye Luo, the contempt in their original eyes had decreased a lot.
Ye Luo blushed a little, in fact, Song Yan's rehearsal, he was basically a spectator. With Song Yan's temperament, where did Ye Luo dare to guide her.
……
After Song Yan finished singing, the two hosts took the stage.
Before I knew it, there were already five groups of contestants who had finished singing. In such a wonderful performance, do you think that time flies quickly? Gan Jin said.
"Yes. Actually, I'm a person who hates working overtime. But tonight, I think it's worth it. Ou Ning continued.
"Brother Ning, do you think it's worth it even if you don't count overtime wages?"
"yes."
"Okay, everyone heard it, please go back and put Brother Ning's overtime pay tonight into my payroll."
“……”
"Just kidding. Well, the next group to appear is the combination of Chu Mo'er and Wei Min. ”
"First of all, we invite the runner-up of the Bashu Division, Wei Min."
