Chapter 311: A "Little Trace" Hit by Reality
The theme of the latest issue of "The Masked Singer" is "Regret".
This theme is actually quite easy to play, especially for singer-songwriters like Facelings and Redeemers.
Original songs are indeed more advantageous than covers.
Of course, since the previous episodes of the show, most of the contestants have started to use new songs to compete.
While Xiong Lu was doing the analysis, the first singer "King" to appear on the stage was already standing on the stage.
The other party had a guitar in his hand, obviously ready to play and sing to himself.
"Missed Love"
"Lyrics: The King"
"Composer: The King"
"Singing: The King"
......
On the big screen on the stage, information about the songs sung by the other party also appeared.
"It's actually your own lyrics and music?"
Xiong Lu was also a little surprised, but she didn't expect that in addition to the two contestants, Faceless and Redeemer, the newcomer who just joined this issue turned out to be a singer-songwriter?
Although the other contestants in the show also sang original new songs, they were basically songs written by others.
Writing your own songs does have an advantage on this show.
Of course, the premise is that the quality of the songs written is acceptable, otherwise, it will drag you back.
As the guitar sounded, "The King" began to sing of his own.
This "Missed Love" is obviously a pop song in the folk style.
"It's pretty good."
After Xiong Lu heard the chorus, she also felt a little surprised.
I didn't expect the newcomers to come this time to have such a level.
Judging from the content of the lyrics, this song is obviously about a boy who has a crush on his high school girl, but in the end he doesn't have time to confess it, and finally misses it.
Such stories are actually not uncommon, and they are not very surprising.
But if it is someone who has the same experience, it can still resonate.
The finishing touch is actually the ending part, and the lyrics mention that at the girl's wedding later, he knew that the other party used to like him.
It's just that I didn't have the courage to confess at the time, so I missed it.
It fits the name of the song and the theme of this episode.
The only thing that made Xiong Lu feel a little depressed was that she didn't even guess who the "king" in front of her was.
There are indeed two brushes, and such a level of lyrics and songs cannot be unknown in the entertainment industry.
The only flaw may be that my singing skills are a bit stretched, although it is good enough compared to some songwriters.
But at most, it is the middle and lower class level among the first-line singers.
"This person feels like Wu Xiaomin!"
Suddenly, a media judge next to him suddenly spoke.
This made Xiong Lu suddenly brightened.
Wu Xiaomin, Xiong Lu, naturally knows it, and even commented on some of the other party's songs.
However, Xiong Lu's evaluation of it is not very high, and she feels that the other party is simply going to the fire when she writes songs, and she doesn't have too much true feelings.
Now after careful analysis, it is indeed possible to match all aspects.
In particular, this seems to be a bit of a laggard's singing skills, which is just Wu Xiaomin's level.
However, Wu Xiaomin changed some of the previous pronunciation characteristics, and if he didn't pay special attention, he really couldn't hear it.
To be honest, for such an artist who comes out of an idol talent show, it is absolutely very rare to have such a level.
And Wu Xiaomin himself doesn't seem to plan to take the development route of idol artists.
If you don't take the professional singer route, it is indeed a waste of his talent for songwriting.
Of course, it would be better to be able to improve your singing skills a little.
As for some of the claims that call Wu Xiaomin "Xiao Xu Ji" on the Internet, Xiong Lu actually didn't take it seriously.
There is still a big gap between the place and the Xu trace.
Even if it is the identity of the simple songwriter and his comparison, it is still not a level.
Although Wu Xiaomin is still young, he has only debuted for less than half a year, and he has great potential for future development.
】
But Xiong Lu still didn't think that the other party could go to Xu Ji's current height.
After all, Xu Qi, who can create a Chinese style and a Gothic dark style, is already at the level of the founding of the sect.
As for Wu Xiaomin, although he has some talent, he is just standing on the shoulders of giants.
Even the maturity of the other party in terms of songwriters is not as good as the redeemer on the show in Xiong Lu's opinion.
Of course, if the Facelings weren't what she had guessed, then the Facelings could have beaten each other.
......
"The performance of the singer 'King' is over, and the media judges are invited to vote."
"The final vote of the king is ......"
"89 votes!"
Wu Xiaomin, who was wearing the mask of the cartoon king on the stage, obviously showed a not very satisfied expression after hearing such a number of votes.
Obviously, he felt that such a vote count was a bit low for him.
After all, he used to be on that talent variety show, and every time he performed, he was able to get the highest rating.
Fortunately, because he was wearing a mask, no one could see his expression at this time.
Xu Ji backstage is also paying attention to the new singer who has joined the show.
I have to say that judging from the singing voice and stage performance of the person who performed just now, he should not be too old, and he doesn't have much stage experience.
But if it's really what Xu Ji guessed, then this person should be considered a very talented singer-songwriter.
If nothing else, I should basically be able to become a singer and songwriter in the future.
Of course, how long this time span is, Xu Ji is not sure.
It's just that Xu Ji can't guess the identity of the other party, he has actually only heard the name of many people in the entertainment industry, and he is not familiar with it at all.
Not to mention such a singer who may be a newcomer.
......
The second singer to appear is the singer who covered Xu Ji's song in the last issue.
Originally, many viewers thought that the other party should continue to plan to cover Xu Ji's song, but what was surprising was that this time the other party covered a song that was very unpopular and even unheard by most media judges.
And the song doesn't quite fit the theme of this issue of "Regret".
It's just that at this time, many media judges, including Xiong Lu, reacted.
This singer, who seems to be a loyal fan of Xu Ji and Sha Yetong, should be a second-tier singer named Kang Jianwei.
In fact, the song sung by the other party this time cannot be regarded as a cover, because the unpopular song of "Flowers Will Always Wither" is the other party's original song.
For Kang Jianwei, in fact, Xiong Lu has only heard a very popular masterpiece from the other party.
Not much is known about the singer's other works and the singer himself.
And what makes Xiong Lu feel a little puzzled is that Kang Jianwei is also a songwriter, and his previous songs were all written by himself.
But why did the other party not sing any of his original songs when he participated in this show.
On the contrary, he has been covering Xu Ji and Sha Yetong's new songs.
Of course, perhaps because of this, this singer who has no sense of existence and wears a cartoon deer hood can be lucky until this issue is not eliminated.
But that's the end of it, the quality of this song "Flowers Will Always Wither" is not very high.
At least there is a big gap with the original song of Wu Xiaomin who appeared before.
When the final votes came out, Xiong Lu's conjecture was also confirmed.
Although the score of 71 votes is passing, it is basically in the pending position of elimination in this show.
......
Yu Feifei was the third to appear.
Originally, she felt that there was a chance that she would be eliminated from this show.
But the singer in front of him did not perform very well, and the choice of songs was a bit off-topic.
She felt as if there was some hope again.
If he can get more than 71 votes, he may be able to stay on the "Masked Singer" show for one more episode.
Yu Feifei's performance officially began.
This song was bought by Zheng Yuzhen from a songwriter outside Phoenix Entertainment.
Although it is said to be bought, it is actually used as a personal debt of the other party.
The quality of the song itself is still good, although the songwriter is only second-line, but this song is obviously the song of the other party's bottom of the box.
Yu Feifei is not a newcomer now, and his stage performance and singing skills are obviously the best among the previous three contestants.
Although it is not as good as Sha Yetong, who debuted together in the same period, Yu Feifei's progress is still quite amazing among new singers.
Of course, I don't know why, even if Zheng Yuzhen has spent a lot of effort and effort, Yu Feifei still failed to become popular.
Miss Rabbit is Yu Feifei's business, in fact, Xiong Lu and the rest of the audience have known about it for a long time.
Yu Feifei and Kang Jianwei, who appeared in front of them, although they have not been eliminated on the show, they are the two with the lowest popularity.
The audience's eyes have not been on the two.
However, the quality of Yu Feifei's new song today is still very high.
Xiong Lu didn't even vote for Wu Xiaomin before, but he voted for Yu Feifei.
Yu Feifei's song is about regret in terms of dreams.
Although Wu Xiaomin's song has a higher memory point and quality than Feifei, Yu Feifei's emotions are even more moving when he sings.
And Yu Feifei's singing skills and scene are more perfect.
If you compare them together, Xiong Lu thinks that Yu Feifei still deserves a higher number of votes.
Of course, this is just Xiong Lu's thoughts, and it does not represent some other media reviews.
In the end, Yu Feifei got 83 votes and temporarily ranked second.
If nothing else, Kang Jianwei will be eliminated in this episode.
In addition to the two singer-songwriters of Faceling and Redeemer, who have their own high-quality original songs, there is also a singer who has not been guessed out, but has the strength of a singer.
Even if it rolls over in the end, it is unlikely that the number of votes will be lower than 71.
......
The next to appear is the singer Jiang Nian.
Of course, except for Yu Feifei and Xu Ji, who guessed their identities very well, not many media judges and audiences, including Xiong Lu, have guessed yet.
Mainly because no one expected Jiang Nian to take the initiative to change his singing habits.
And the level shown is still at the level of the singer.
The main thing is that no one expected that Jiang Nian, who is good at singing love songs, suddenly began to play high notes like a show off.
Everyone's attention is on some singers and first-line singers with excellent trebles.
No one could have thought that the other party was Jiang Nian.
And this time Jiang Nian is still the same plan as the previous issue.
As soon as the prelude to the song ends, there is a high-pitched show-off refrain.
If the atmosphere of the first three singers is a little low because of the limitation of the theme, then it has completely changed here in Jiang Nian.
The first three songs are the kind of Jiang Nian who begins to sigh because of regret, but Jiang Nian, who wears a unique radio mask, this original new song is completely with a kind of "I know it's a pity, but Lao Tzu will never regret it" courage.
Coupled with Jiang Nian's unique treble performance, it really gives people a different kind of shock.
......
"It's definitely the singing skill level of the singer!"
"Even among the singers, it is the stronger kind."
Xiong Lu was listening to the singer "radio" singing on the stage, and judged in her heart.
The only thing that made Xiong Lu feel a little puzzled was that there were so many singers, and she couldn't find the right number after looking for a long time.
This is also the feeling of the last issue.
It is also possible that the other party is a first-line singer, and then his singing skills are improving rapidly, so it is unexpected for a while.
As for the second-tier singers, Xiong Lu thinks it's basically unlikely.
With such singing skills and stage performance, how can he be a second-tier singer.
Even if it is suddenly opened, it is unlikely to improve so quickly without opening the hook.
And this person's stage experience is obviously very rich, and his singing voice does not sound like a young singer, most of them have stayed in the second-tier singers for more than two years, and basically stop here in this life.
Unless...... This person is the king of singers, but many people don't know that the other party is good at high notes!
Thinking of this possibility, Xiong Luton thought through a lot of time.
No wonder his singing skills and stage performance are so strong, he is obviously the king of singers.
But it's not the ones who everyone has the impression of excellent treble.
Although he knew that his idea was correct, Xiong Lu still couldn't completely guess the true identity of the other party.
I can only find the list of singers one by one after I go back after recording the show.
......
"Singer 'Radio', the final vote is ...... 92 votes! ”
Jiang Nian's performance directly got the highest number of votes among the four contestants who appeared.
At this time, Wu Xiaomin in the backstage lounge did not change much when he heard that the other party's votes exceeded his own.
He could hear that the other party was obviously a person at the level of a singer, and he purely relied on his singing skills to reduce the dimensionality.
This song was also written by someone, and the quality of the song itself is not very good, if you change the singer, you will definitely not get such a number of votes.
He doesn't really care about winning or losing, he cares more about being a singer-songwriter like himself, and the Facelings and Redeemers who haven't appeared yet.
But the next performance directly darkened Wu Xiaomin's face.
"The singer 'Redeemer', the final vote is ...... 90 votes! ”
It's also an original song, and the other party's singing is not much better than his own.
But it was still one vote higher than Wu Xiaomin.
He was in a separate lounge at this time, the mask was taken off, and the agent Wang Wei also noticed the change in the other party's face.
But she quickly pretended not to see it, and didn't want to touch this mold, the other party would really scold her as an agent.
Wu Xiaomin came to participate in "The Masked Singer" originally for the first place, not to say that it is okay not to eliminate.
It seems that he was in the talent show at the beginning, but he was unique, beating everyone else at the same time.
Accustomed to that situation, now that the Faceling, who was supposed to be the biggest opponent, hasn't even appeared, he has become the third place?
Naturally, I couldn't accept such a blow in my heart.
At this time, the Faceling, who was the last to appear, also appeared on the stage under the introduction of the host.
......
