Chapter 372 371. An epic song! Rock that doesn’t sound like rock! (Subscribe)
The music starts!
Jiang Yu's outfit today is also very eye-catching. He has both hands on the keyboard and one foot gently padding on the ground to the rhythm, which is a beautiful sight to watch.
She has gradually begun to enjoy the charm of rock music.
The rhythmic keyboard accompaniment sounded!
but.
It doesn't have the impact of hard rock, nor the dreaminess of alternative rock, but it has a passionate melody like a march, which makes people look sideways, and feel inexplicably excited and want to continue listening.
Jiang Yu's keyboard creates a sense of presence as if one is sitting in a concert hall and listening to a cello playing a march.
The atmosphere of classical music suddenly filled the entire scene.
Wang Qian held the microphone, his body relaxed, his feet gently following the rhythm, and sang his song to everyone.
"I used to rule the world..."
Just the first line of lyrics lifted the spirits of everyone present.
because.
This opening sentence is so grand.
"I once ruled the world..."
At this time, Murong Yue also picked up the drumstick and started beating the bass drum. Slightly heavy drum sounds came out, perfectly matching the rhythm of the whole song. Her head with two ponytails swayed gently, and she was completely immersed in the music.
It doesn't have the restlessness of a drum set, but instead has a more relaxed and cheerful rhythm.
Everyone felt refreshed.
This song has successfully aroused everyone's interest and made them want to listen to it.
A march-like prelude and cheerful and relaxing drum beats.
There are also grand lyrics and Wang Qian’s equally relaxed singing voice.
It instantly brought everyone into the mood of the song.
"Seas would rise when I gave the word..."
(The waves rise because I will...) "Now in the morning I sleep alonr."
(Now, I fall asleep alone in the early morning.) “Sweep the streets I used to own.”
(Sweeping the streets that were once mine.) “I used to roll the dice.”
(I once threw the dice to decide life and death.) “Feel the fear in my enemy’s eyes.”
(See the fear hidden in the enemy's eyes.) "Listen as the crowd would sing:"
(Listen to people shouting)
"Now the old king is dead, long live the king."
"The previous king has passed away, long live our king."
…
The scene was silent.
Everyone was attracted by Wang Qian's singing and shocked by the artistic conception described in the lyrics.
Everyone could hear that the song described a king who ruled the world.
The waves rise because of my will...
It is filled with a grand and vicissitudes of life artistic conception, attracting everyone.
On the judges' panel, Judy whispered to Ceci, "As expected of a musician who could write the poem 'When You're Old', his talent in literature is also amazing. The lyrics of this song are like a poem. To be honest, he was born for art, and there is no flaw in him."
Ceci nodded, looked at Wang Qian with admiration, and whispered in agreement: "Yes, what a wonderful sentence."
The French judge, Mengge, stared at Wang Qian with shining eyes, almost leaning sideways, listening carefully to every word Wang Qian sang.
He felt somewhat familiar with the scene and mood described in the lyrics of the song, as if he had seen a similar plot in a book he had read.
Amidst the lighthearted and cheerful rhythm, the lyrics contain a sense of sadness.
It seems that in history, kings who had the power to rule always had a bad ending.
Wang Qian's singing continues, still relaxed and melodious.
"One minute I held the key!"
"Next the walls were closed in me."
"And I discovered that my castles stand."
"Upon pillars of salt' pllars of sand..."
“I hear jerusalem bells a ringing…”
“Roman cavalry choirs are singing…”
"Be my missionaries in a foreign field."
"For some reason I can't explain..."
…
The singing is melodious and pleasant.
The story described is also full of epic feeling.
The musical accompaniment has a unique style, with march-like chords, drums, a little bit of bells, and a little bit of guitar accompaniment...
Makes everyone feel very good.
The lyrics are also very fascinating.
Everyone's eyes lit up.
Christine whispered to Garbo, "This time, Professor Wang Qian is going to tell a story with his singing. And it sounds really good. It's simply an epic. Moreover, this song is innovative in the field of rock and roll. It can be said that Professor Wang Qian has further demonstrated his talent, both in literature and music, in this song. The artistry of this work is more profound than his previous rock and roll works."
Garbo didn't understand much of it, but she thought it was nice to listen to. She was attracted by the story and nodded and said, "Indeed, it's very nice to listen to. This king has great power, but it also makes me feel very pitiful."
Christine stared at Wang Qian and felt that Wang Qian's performance this time had obviously exceeded the expectations of the whole world.
Last week, everyone was conquered by his three alternative but impactful rock concerts, and naturally wanted to continue listening to similar music.
Just when everyone was expecting him to continue with the style of last three performances and continue to enjoy the restless music or the wonderful voice.
Wang Qian did not follow the routine at all! This time, his performance style changed completely again, and his singing voice was also different.
He really fulfilled the promise he once made.
Every performance has a different rock style and a different sound.
Christine once again felt infinite admiration and adoration for Wang Qian. She stared at Wang Qian who was concentrating on singing, and really wanted to have a good chat with Wang Qian about music.
Unfortunately, so far, she has not had the opportunity to have a good chat with Wang Qian in private.
In the future, she knew that there might not be such an opportunity or time again.
Not to mention that Wang Qian was busy with the world competition and had no time to meet her.
Even for herself, her new album has already started production.
Since the first song has been completed and is about to be released, she will complete the rest in one go, which will take at least one or two months to complete.
Perhaps, when she has finished producing this album and has a break, she can go to China to meet Wang Qian and have a good chat.
In other words, she wanted to see Wang Qian with the intention of seeking advice.
Big-name singers and top musicians such as Robert were all full of admiration for Wang Qian at this moment.
No matter how they wanted to use Wang Qian to make money, or whether they really wanted to boycott Wang Qian...
However, they all had to admit at this moment that Wang Qian's performance this time once again exceeded their imagination and their understanding of music.
All mature singers and musicians actually have their own mature style, and will continue to stick to it.
Because this is the path to success.
Once they succeed in one genre of music, they will continue to delve deeper into it and achieve greater success.
Therefore, Elizabeth is the most mature among the ten contestants, because she has always insisted on the music type that she is most familiar with and the most successful, and has gained a lot of loyal fans.
Several other contestants are still trying different music and looking for the direction to success.
As for Wang Qian, that was even more amazing...
Because he kept achieving great success in different directions, and then instead of going deeper, he turned around and continued in a completely different direction, then achieved great success again, and then still didn’t go further, but turned around again and moved in a new direction, and then succeeded again…
By constantly changing directions, you can continue to succeed.
So far, there has been no failure.
This is something that all successful people in the industry dare not imagine and cannot believe.
If Wang Qian’s successful example had not been in front of them, they would definitely not have believed that such a person existed.
Now……
Their years of experience have made them believe that Wang Qian's work will definitely be successful.
The remaining suspense is whether it can achieve the same explosive performance as last week’s three singles?
Although, Wang Qian's performance this time was not as live as last week, it did not make everyone dance along uncontrollably, nor did it have such a beautiful and alternative voice that made people fall into it after listening to it.
However, it still sounds nice and worth savoring, just like watching an epic blockbuster, giving people a strong atmosphere of classical culture and art.
Use a lighthearted and cheerful tone to describe a rather tragic epic.
Robert and his companions all looked solemn, knowing that it would be much more difficult to snipe Wang Qian next week.
But no matter what, they have to continue to act.
Even if they fail, they will try their best to block Wang Qian's upward space.
Other ordinary audiences were driven by the cheerful and exciting atmosphere of the song. They all felt very relaxed. However, they felt a little heavy while listening to the epic story. This contrast made them feel that the song seemed unusually open-minded and magnificent.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Many audience members in the back row couldn't help but wave their hands to the rhythm of Wang Qian's singing.
Then, more and more viewers joined in.
Like a wave.
Wang Qian smiled at the waving audience members, waved back, and sang loudly: "OH……………………"
"I know saint peter won't call my name."
“Never an honest word.”
"But that was when I ruled the world..."
More and more audiences were infected by Wang Qian's singing and the rhythm of the accompaniment, and were also led by more and more audiences to wave their hands along with the music.
Even the celebrities, famous people and wealthy people in the front row had to follow everyone and wave their arms.
The entire Staples Center turned into a wave...
"oh...oh...oh..."
Shouts rang out one after another.
All eyes were fixed on the stage.
Countless audiences around the world were also looking at the stage, looking at Wang Qian and several other band members on the stage.
Jiang Yu operated the keyboard attentively, playing basic rhythmic string music.
Murong Yue shook her head and switched her hands back and forth, continuously beating on the drum and the bronze bell, continuously playing beautiful music, and the whole person was dancing on the spot like a beautiful elf.
Juliet, Zhao Wei and He Fulin all held guitars and kept adding their own music. Although it was inconspicuous, it made the overall soundtrack more complete and heavy.
It looks like...
The performance of this song seems very simple.
There is no warm sense of presence, no violent rhythm, and no complicated soundtrack.
but……
Sounds good!
It looks very nice too.
Many people are discussing this song on social media platforms around the world.
Among them, everyone’s biggest doubt is.
"Which king is Professor Wang Qian writing about in this song? Jerusalem and Roman knights appear, so it's definitely not the king of China! It must be the king of Europe. Guess who it is?"
"I think it must be the Greek King Kasa, who once ruled the world..."
"That must be the Queen of England... She is the one who rules the world, the founder of the British Empire..."
"Why not the Tsar? Or Catherine the Great? They both almost conquered Europe..."
"This song is so good, it goes beyond my understanding of rock music, it's like it's not rock music!"
“I don’t know if it’s rock music, but I listened to it very carefully and wanted to listen to it again from the beginning, just like reading a book.”
“You can always trust Professor Wang Qian’s work.”
“Really can’t wait to download it.”
"Wow, another great song. I'm excited to think that I can download it in the early hours of the night."
"Not only can I download this song in the early hours of the night, but I can also download Christine's new song. I'm so looking forward to it..."
…
Many fans are discussing which king's history the song comes from, and they also like this song very much.
This is a song that is completely different from the current mainstream electronic music, and also a rock music that is different from other traditional rock music.
But for ordinary people, they don’t care that much and don’t understand that much.
They only have one requirement for music.
That 's the essence of pop music.
The word "popular" is the core.
For music to become popular, it must be nice to listen to.
Anything that is not pleasant to the ear but is recognized by experts is classical.
At this moment, a cheer was heard in the backstage program crew's room.
"Miracle, this is really a miracle."
"The global audience has exceeded 2.2 billion and is still rising slowly. It is expected to peak at 2.3 billion, surpassing last week's peak audience record again."
“We created an even more surprising miracle.”
"No, it was not created by us, but by Wang Qian."
“I really hope he’ll be performing again next week.”
"Of course there are. There are five contestants left. One contestant draws a bye and automatically advances. The remaining four contestants are just enough to make up a performance. Wang Qian must be one of them. He cannot be allowed to have a bye."
"God, next week Wang Qian will have his official competition and three more performances. We will definitely be able to create even more miraculous viewership records..."
"I want to say to everybody, guys, we're rich."
The entire program crew cheered.
Everyone's eyes were fixed on Wang Qian's performance on the screen, their eyes filled with surprise and the subsequent regret.
because……
Wang Qian's performance is over.
This means.
This is the peak viewership for tonight.
It is impossible to increase it any further.
That's really a pity.
Among the contestants who are about to appear, none of them can compare with Wang Qian in appealing to the audience.
Moreover, according to the order of appearance, the popularity of the contestants who appeared later was getting lower and lower! Only Miyuki Nakamori, who appeared last, was slightly better.
so.
In the view of their production team and capital representatives.
Wang Qian’s performance is over, which means tonight’s performance is over.
Wang Qian stood on the stage, bowed gently to everyone, smiled and said: "Thank you everyone, this song is called, viva la vida!"
Forehead……
There was warm applause at the scene.
However, all the people who were applauding had doubts on their faces, as if there were question marks above their heads - what's your name? Can you say it again? Many viewers in front of the TV and several contestants in the lounge were also full of questions...
"What's your name?"
The applause hasn't quite stopped yet.
Some judges raised their hands in the judging panel.
