Chapter 468 Belated Popularity Explosion
In late December, due to the arrival of the winter festival holiday, the atmosphere in the Academy City became much more relaxed. Many students finished their intense studies and prepared to relax during this period. There were many more pedestrians on the streets, and various activities followed one after another.
"Boss, what is this album?"
In a private cafe next to the university, a boy pointed to the album in the photo frame on the bar with a little curiosity. The cover of the album featured a girl with black hair and a cold face. Her snow-white skin and black swan-like dress formed a sharp contrast, which had a special charm.
"Oh, this one, this is a treasure I found recently." The literary and thin coffee shop owner turned the photo frame to the angle so that the boy in front of him could see it clearly.
"'Black Angel Miss' Heshia Tilan's first official album, how is it, is the style very dark and novel?" He evaluated the songs in this album like a glutton, commenting on the style, instruments, melody, and the theme and artistic conception expressed.
"In general, Miss Tilan, who seems quiet and lovely, is actually very rebellious. This album, which completely disregards the market, is both eye-catching and worrying."
"What are you worried about?" The boy was curious. At this moment, he just wanted to hear what songs were in it. After all, it was the first time he heard of this singer.
"I'm worried that she won't be popular, but I'm also afraid that she will be too popular." The owner explained with a smile.
"Even if she is a singer, she is not short of money, but she will also care about feedback and everyone's praise. If no one likes it, I guess Tilan will not release this style next time."
"But if her album is a big hit, many people will make it look tacky, and then the overall evaluation will be distorted."
"This is very complicated to say. It's like you are introducing a movie to your friends and are amazed by the moving spirit and artistic elements expressed in the movie. However, what he and more ordinary people see are just the few scenes of the male and female protagonists in the movie. Later, many media descriptions of this also stayed at that level."
"This is very regrettable, but there is nothing we can do. After all, the public's opinions are also opinions."
"Okay, uncle, lend it to me to listen. Do you think it's okay?" After being recommended by this uncle, the boy couldn't help but feel a little curious.
"Hahaha, I won't lend it. I cherish this commemorative edition that I bought specially, because Tilan didn't do any publicity and didn't make many commemorative editions."
"If you want to listen, it's actually very simple. You can find it on Tilan's official website. The album can be downloaded for free."
"Alas, it doesn't cost money." The boy was puzzled.
"Well, it is said that Tilan is quite special. She has not signed a contract with any big company and is very free. Normally, even if a singer is not short of money, she cannot set her album for free, because it will break the convention, and it will be difficult for the company to set the price for the subsequent new album."
"I'm getting more and more interested after listening to her. I always feel that the singer Tilan is very alternative."
"Hehe, yes, very alternative. If you just look at Tilan's life photos and past videos of her school life, you will think that she is really that kind of quiet, gentle and lovely girl, but when you listen to her songs you will feel a completely different heart."
"It's particularly profound, ethereal, vague, and so real and dark. She is definitely a black singer."
"Okay, uncle, don't say anymore. The more you talk, the more curious I get. Tell me honestly, have you fallen in love with this singer recently?" The boy took the coffee handed to him by the uncle and responded with a complaint.
"How can I be obsessed? No, no, no, that's called liking and loving. Obsession is a reaction to a confused mind and hormonal impulses, but I rely on wisdom and heart to choose to like." The uncle waved his finger, indicating that he was not a low-end fanatic.
The boy was powerless to refute this, so he took his coffee and sat down at a nearby seat, then took out his headphones and prepared to listen to who the singer recommended by the uncle, Heshia Tilan, was.
The album includes the songs Tilan sang in the dim concert hall, the dark fairy tale songs she collaborated with Audrey, and several new songs she created recently. The first song after opening the album is the Magic Mirror that Tilan sang in the concert hall that day.
In the dark environment, the drum beats gradually sounded with the rhythm, followed by the soft and ethereal sound. In just a few seconds, people were completely immersed in another world and slowly fell into the dark and addictive dream.
One song after another, when the boy listened to the entire album and the music stopped, he came to his senses. I don’t know when, the coffee in front of him had already gone cold, and the sun outside the coffee was gradually setting in the west.
Has it been so long? The boy realized, then picked up the cold coffee and drank it in big gulps, then stood up and left.
Walking on the streets of the city, there were a lot of cars and all kinds of noisy sounds passing by, and the boy also instinctively avoided obstacles and walked along the street.
However, the melody seemed to be reverberating in my mind, like a history that has slowly unfolded over several centuries, with ups and downs, from the birth of all the fiery beliefs to the slow cooling and dimming of the great brilliance, only the vast and endless starry sky remained, and people, as an extremely small part of the universe, walked in the darkness, facing the slow onslaught of coldness and loss.
Although sad, it is not painful, just a kind of regret and loss.
As the uncle said at the end, this is not a song that makes people laugh, but it has a kind of magic that makes people immersed in it and can't help crying.
Because the emotions in it are so sincere, and so real and cruel to reveal certain truths, it resonates with many people.
In this way, until the boy finished dinner, returned to his residence, took a shower and took a nap, he got out of this lingering immersion.
"It's too magical, like it's poisonous." The boy commented with emotion.
He turned over and began to search for the name of Heshia Tilan's album, preparing to buy a commemorative edition collection.
Unfortunately, because this black singer did not have high expectations at the time, she did not produce many album cassettes, and even fewer commemorative editions.
As a last resort, boys can only look for some second-hand websites or intermediary shops to buy them.
The previously unknown album finally became popular with the arrival of the holidays. Perhaps because this singer is really special, many people are curious about it, and the legend of Heshia Tilan has also begun to spread, such as her amazing performance in the Four Leaf Crystal Winter Festival Competition, the soft and tranquil life photos, and the dark style songs that are contrary to reality, all of which make people feel like they have dug up treasures, with endless surprises.
Many deeds of this black singer have only slowly entered people's field of vision since then. She was an ordinary sister under the shadow of her genius sister in her early years, had a difficult life after her childhood family was broken, and shined in high school, etc. The twists and turns in these experiences are rare for other singers.
In addition, the commemorative album of Tilan's Winter Festival competition that year was also sold at a high price on the Internet. If it had Tilan's signature, it could easily sell for more than hundreds of thousands of federal coins. It must be said that there are indeed many wealthy people in the Central Star Region.
However, Tilan did not know what happened later. She didn't go out much and liked to sleep at home. After the album was sold for a week, she no longer paid attention to it. After all, the sales volume would only decrease in the future.
This situation continued until a week later, when the four singers went out together.
