LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 233 Play Chopin’s Nocturne for you!
After everyone saw the song information of Zhou Yu's song, the scene gradually became quiet, and they were waiting for Zhou Yu's performance with peace of mind.
"This prelude, was that the sound of electricity at the beginning?"
When everyone listened to the prelude of Zhou Yu's song, the "shushasha" electric sound instantly caught people's ears. Then came the piano solo, and the melodious melody seemed to lead the audience into a quiet and mysterious night.
"Is there a flavor of Western music, a combination of traditional music and Western modern music?"
Shen Guangyan and the others were shocked when they listened to the prelude of Zhou Yu's "Nocturne". As professionals, they can tell that Zhou Yu incorporated a lot of things into this song. It is a fusion of traditional music and Western music, and this song gives people the overall feeling of a Western music flavor in it. There is a medieval retro aesthetic, but there are elements of domestic pop music in it.
Looking at Zhou Yu on the stage, Shen Guangyan and the others were a little shocked and their eyes flickered.
"This guy is really a monster!"
Teacher Fu Ming also expressed emotion: "Integrating domestic pop music with Western pop music, and also incorporating traditional music elements into it, only Zhou Yu is so bold and dares to do this, and it is so successful!"
"This kid is really awesome!"
This "Nocturne" just made them feel frightened just listening to this prelude. The audience may only think that the melody is pleasant. But they professionals can hear the real thing inside. The tune of Zhou Yu's song can be said to be very complex, integrating a variety of music, domestic, traditional, modern and popular, and even Western music. The whole song also leans towards the medieval retro style. This is the first time they have seen such a song.
The guests all looked at each other, this episode was really stressful.
Shen Guangyan and the others looked at Liu Zifan. They knew very well that this episode was a contest between Zhou Yu, Liu Zifan and the entire rap circle behind him. At present, from the perspective of music, they feel that Zhou Yu is far better than Liu Zifan.
Liu Zifan, on the other hand, was a little surprised by Zhou Yu's song, but it hadn't officially started yet, so he didn't panic.
Even the audience was a little attracted by Zhou Yu's rap song at this moment. A good song can capture people right from the intro, and Zhou Yu's "Nocturne" obviously did that.
"The intro and melody are good."
Director Hong Tao and the others were also staring closely at Zhou Yu on the stage. They were considered semi-professionals, and they also heard something about Zhou Yu's "Nocturne".
"This kid brings us surprises time and time again."
There is something in this song, and Zhou Yu’s rap is really exciting.
On the stage, when the prelude was over, Zhou Yu raised the microphone and started singing.
"A colony of bloodthirsty ants are attracted to carrion
I look at the lonely scenery with an expressionless face
After losing you, love and hate begin to become clear
If I lose you, what else should I care about..."
As soon as Zhou Yu opened his mouth, everyone's eyes immediately widened. This singing voice and this rhythm are really amazing!
They had heard Zhou Yu's rap before, but it was only a small part of Zhou Yu's rap interspersed in the slow and lyrical songs. No one has ever heard of Zhou Yu’s real rap songs. For this type of song, it is more difficult to control the rhythm. Even the same rap song has different feelings when sung by different rappers.
But this was the first time they heard Zhou Yu's pure rap song. As soon as he opened his mouth, everyone was shocked.
Whether it is mastering the rhythm of rap or some skills, Zhou Yu can be said to be very skilled. Especially his unique voice, which has the clarity of a teenager and the calmness of a mature person. In Zhou Yu's singing, he skillfully controlled the emotional intensity of his voice, sometimes being low and confiding, sometimes being high-pitched and passionate, interpreting the emotions of the song very well.
Moreover, Zhou Yu's song, judging from the music and lyrics, gives people a mysterious atmosphere, as if he is deep in that quiet and nervous night scene.
"When doves no longer symbolize peace
I was finally reminded
Vultures are fed in the square
I rhyme beautifully
Describe the love that has been robbed..."
After hearing Zhou Yu's rap, everyone felt a sense of amazement. Everyone has never heard Zhou Yu's pure rap songs. As Liu Zifan and others said on the Internet, it is still unknown what Zhou Yu's rap skills are. But today, after hearing the song "Nocturne" sung by Zhou Yu, they discovered that Zhou Yu could really rap, and he was so good at it!
Shen Guangyan and the others also looked a little moved. Judging from Zhou Yu's performance, his skills were very solid. Rap is really not difficult for him, and judging from this "Nocturne" and Zhou Yu's singing, they themselves feel that they are far superior to Liu Zifan.
Teacher Fu Ming and Shen Guangyan looked at each other, with a look of watching a good show in their eyes. They don't know much about rap, and they really feel that the current rap circle is a bit messy. Although Shen Guangyan and Zhou Yu have always been in a competitive relationship and have different positions, aside from these things, Shen Guangyan really appreciates Zhou Yu.
This time Liu Zifan and the entire rap circle came to diss Zhou Yu and pull him down. Now it seems that he will probably be slapped in the face.
I didn’t think Zhou Yu was good at rapping before. After all, I had never seen Zhou Yu sing a complete and pure rap song before. But today, after seeing Zhou Yu's "Nocturne", they realized how terrifying Zhou Yu was.
Anyway, they felt that there was no comparability between Liu Zifan and Zhou Yu.
In the lounge, the guests all looked at Liu Zifan. Although he was always wearing sunglasses, his eyes and expressions could not be seen clearly. But from his gradually disappearing smile and his clasped hands, it was enough to see Liu Zifan's inner unrest.
Liu Zifan frowned and couldn't help but feel a little panicked. This guy actually knew how to rap. Not only does it work, but it is really strong.
He is nothing. No matter how arrogant he is, he still has the ability to judge a person's strength.
The quality of Zhou Yu's song is really high, and his own singing skills are also very strong, which makes him feel some pressure.
But when I think about the great live atmosphere I had just now, and the songs I brought this time were also co-written with famous foreign rappers, it’s really not certain who will win and who will lose.
It can only be said that the fact that Zhou Yu can really rap really surprised him.
Not only Liu Zifan, but also his manager, looking at Zhou Yu on the stage and listening to his singing, had some bad premonitions and frowned.
"This guy really knows how to do it."
but……
Even if they do, they don't necessarily lose. After the last episode of the show, the news that Liu Zifan was on "Singer" has already spread. There are many of his fans here today, and with the votes of the audience, they won't suffer as much as they did in the last episode.
and……
Liu Zifan's performance in this episode was really good, and the audience was having a lot of fun. This kind of interaction will leave a deep impression on the audience, and the number of votes should not be too small.
So there is still a good chance of winning.
"As long as he wins this round, he will have to peel off his skin no matter what."
Other companies are already ready. There is no need to wait for this episode to be broadcast. Then, just look for Reuters or the like. When the news came out that Zhou Yu lost to Liu Zifan, the major companies added fuel to the fire, and then waited until the show aired. Come out and take this matter seriously. That definitely had a great impact on Zhou Yu. His debut was so smooth, but this time he failed, which many people wanted to see. At that time, Liu Zifan will be the one who benefits the most.
On the stage, Zhou Yu's singing continued, and the rhythm began to speed up. Everyone knew that the chorus was about to come.
"Play Chopin's Nocturne for you
In memory of my dead love
A sound like the night wind
Heartbroken sounds good
My hands are typing very lightly on the keyboard
The thoughts I give you are very careful
The place where you are buried is called Netherworld..."
Everyone has discovered that Zhou Yu's rap song has a dark style element in it. And I have always felt that when Zhou Yu sings songs, there is a sense of ambiguity and unclear pronunciation, but it has a unique flavor. And this time, the rap song he sang, coupled with his unclear enunciation, made the song half more beautiful.
"Those dragonflies with broken wings are scattered in this forest.
And my eyes have no sympathy at all
My tears after losing you are cloudy and unclear
Without you, even my smile is shadowed
The wind blows on the mossy roof
laugh at my sadness
Like a dry well without water..."
The rap song brought by Zhou Yu this time is a classic song composed and sung by Jay Chou. The lyrics are written by Jay Chou's old partner Fang Wenshan, and the arranger is Michael Lin. This song is included in Jay Chou's album "Chopin in November" released on November 1, 2005.
As soon as this song came out, it became popular all over the country, and there was even a story of "going on stage to receive the award as soon as the nocturne played". That year, Jay Chou won numerous awards with this song "Nocturne", and he ran out of words in his acceptance speech.
Even after many years, the popularity of this song "Nocturne" is still everlasting. It is also one of Jay Chou's most representative works among many rap songs.
This song uses a simple piano sound and a retro melody to create such a touching song. The lyrics accurately express the unspeakable pain and are worth savoring again and again. Starting from the simple prelude, a scene of heartbreak is instantly laid out for people. The painful feeling of commemorating love makes the audience feel a trace of poignant atmosphere.
"Play Chopin's Nocturne for you
In memory of my dead love
And I hide my name for you
Play the piano under the moonlight
The feeling of your heartbeat
Still so warm and close
I miss your bright red lip prints..."
The song gradually came to an end, and Zhou Yu's singing gradually slowed down.
"When doves no longer symbolize peace
I was finally reminded
Vultures are fed in the square
I rhyme beautifully
Describe the love that has been robbed..."
At the end of the song, Zhou Yu slowly put down the microphone. The moment his performance ended, thunderous applause and deafening cheers erupted.
"Zhou Yu! Zhou Yu!"
"Zhou Yu, you are my god!"
"This is called rap. Liu Zifan and the others are incomparable!"
"After seeing this, who would dare to say that Zhou Yu doesn't understand rap? This rap is much more advanced than the rap sung by those people now."
"That's right, there's no random shouting, no noisy music, and the lyrics are also very connotative and artistic. It's much better than those slobbery songs!"
…
The audience at the scene seemed a little excited at this moment, and the voices below also became a little noisy. There was no way, Zhou Yu's "Nocturne" directly introduced them to another level of rap. Compared with the rap songs I heard before, Zhou Yu's rap songs are really like masterpieces. Let’s compare Liu Zifan’s performance just now. It’s also rap. Although Liu Zifan’s rap was very exciting and exciting on the spot. But if you think about it carefully, you can find that Liu Zifan's lyrics and music are a bit too ordinary. The music is not bad, at least it was composed by a famous foreign rapper.
But as for the lyrics, after listening to Zhou Yu's "Nocturne", the audience felt that Liu Zifan's lyrics were really rubbish. There are no nourishing lyrics in the entire article, and there are only a few words repeated over and over again. It relies on the explosive music to drive the scene, and there is only a lively scene, but there is no real core at all.
Such a comparison, you can tell the difference immediately!
Liu Zifan was sitting in the lounge, looking at the excited audience in the camera. Although his expression remained calm, he became nervous inside.
This situation seems a bit not good.
However, he still has a sense of luck in his heart, and he still has an unwarranted confidence in himself.
"You won't necessarily lose."
His performance was not bad either. Zhou Yu's rap really exceeded everyone's expectations, but the final voting results haven't come out yet, so he still has a chance to win.
Teacher Chen Mo also came on stage to host the show, and the teachers on the expert panel began to evaluate Zhou Yu's performance.
As for Zhou Yu, some of the teachers in these expert groups, from the very beginning, now no longer dare to talk nonsense about Zhou Yu. Not to mention Zhou Yu's strength, it is difficult to find any shortcomings, but to talk about Zhou Yu's current popularity and celebrity status, some words must be said carefully, otherwise they will be sprayed to death.
This time, it was not the teacher who had always supported Zhou Yu who spoke first, but the teacher who was very familiar with Shen Guangyan and the most qualified teacher among the expert group who had targeted Zhou Yu. He was the first to pick up the microphone and speak.
He is in his fifties, slightly fatter, and looks calm and intimidating when he is not smiling. Especially when commenting on other guests, he basically kept a straight face. Given his status, he would not give face to anyone except Shen Guangyan and the others.
But for Zhou Yu, this young man, he also has a faint smile now.
"Oh, I didn't expect that Zhou Yu, you can also be so good at rapping."
He sighed as soon as he opened his mouth, looking at Zhou Yu, looking very kind, completely different from the stern look when facing other players.
"I have never heard Zhou Yu sing a complete rap song before, so I have never been very clear about your rap skills. But today, your nocturne really surprised me. This song combines a lot of music Elements include traditional music, domestic modern pop music, and Western music elements. It is retro yet has pop elements. This is really the first time I have heard such a rap song..."
"After listening, there was only one word in my mind, good! It's really good!"
The teacher was a little excited. He was really impressed by Zhou Yu's talent. This "Nocturne" was a fun song for laymen to watch, but an expert to listen to. Only they know how difficult and complicated Zhou Yu's song is. It is very difficult for him to integrate various musical elements, even the combination of Chinese and Western music, so smoothly and successfully.
No one in the industry has dared to do this before, and no one has succeeded. But today, with Zhou Yu, they saw and witnessed his success!
and……
This guy is very bold and dares to innovate and play music. Others only talk about it, but only Zhou Yu can really do it!
This guy's ancient music before was a fusion of traditional music and modern pop music, and it's the same this time, and even fused Chinese and Western music. I have to say, Zhou Yu is really a musical genius!
The teachers in the expert group that followed were all praising Zhou Yu. In fact, the quality of his "Nocturne" was really high. And it's a rap song. After they listened to Zhou Yu's rap song, they naturally compared it with the rap songs of Liu Zifan and other singers in their current rap circle. In such a comparison, Zhou Yu's "Nocturne" seems to be a dimensionality reduction blow.
This is not because they are praising and criticizing him. Indeed, as Zhou Yu's fans said before, Zhou Yu's rap is called rap, and it is really much more advanced than the popular rap songs now.
There is no random shouting, no vulgar lyrics, it is not a slobbery song, singing quietly is also rap.
Zhou Yu bowed slightly to the teachers, and then returned to the lounge under the leadership of the staff. The voting channel was already open. They only needed to wait quietly for the arrival of Director Hong Tao.
When everyone in the lounge saw Zhou Yu back, Wang Jiachao and Zhao Lei were the most surprised. Shen Guangyan seemed to have taken a look at it. He was no longer so obsessed with winning Zhou Yu once, and seemed to have accepted his fate.
After struggling for so long, he still has not defeated Zhou Yu once, and the more the competition continues, the more powerful he can see Zhou Yu. It seems that just like what is said on the Internet, only Zhang Junjie, who is recognized as the number one in the domestic music scene, can suppress him now.
Regarding Zhang Junjie, even Shen Guangyan had to admit how powerful he was. Both Zhou Yu and Zhou Yu are the kind of all-around singer-songwriters who are good at both lyrics and music. They became famous at a young age and climbed all the way to the top. There were two times when he himself faced off against Zhang Junjie, but he was beaten to the point where he was unable to fight back. He felt the same as Zhou Yu now.
"Maybe he is the only one who can beat Zhou Yu, or..."
Looking at Zhou Yu who was sitting down, Shen Guangyan couldn't believe the result.
If even Zhang Junjie can't suppress Zhou Yu, then Zhou Yu is really going to become a god in one fell swoop. Less than a year after his debut, he is trying to reach the top. This speed, and at his age, is really terrifying!
"Brother Yu, your rapping is so good!"
Zhao Lei and Wang Jiachao were also a little excited. It was also their first time to see Zhou Yu sing a complete rap song. The key is that it worked so well the first time, and the quality of this "Nocturne" is really amazing!
Wang Jiachao even had a premonition that Zhou Yu's "Nocturne" would become an enduring classic song for many years. The key is that when this episode is aired, it will definitely subvert the entire rap circle. At that time, people like Liu Zifan and Lin Hao, as well as those in the rap circle who mocked Zhou Yu, will receive a loud slap. There is even Zhou Yu's song, and they will be the clowns by then!
Zhou Yu smiled and looked at Liu Zifan, who had not spoken and was sitting there silently.
From being arrogant at the beginning to being silent now, Liu Zifan seems to be no longer as calm as he was at the beginning. Zhou Yu didn't say anything, just sat here quietly waiting for Director Hong Tao to announce the results.
Liu Zifan also noticed the look in Zhou Yu's eyes just now. His eyes under the sunglasses narrowed slightly, and his heart also lifted.
He was indeed a little nervous.
"Huh, calm down, calm down, you may not lose yet."
At this time, Director Hong Tao and Teacher Chen Mo walked in together, and the ranking results of this issue were already in their hands. As soon as they entered, the guests' eyes were focused on Director Hong Tao.
Although I know everyone is anxious, we still have to go through the process, and the sponsor father cannot forget it. After doing all this, Director Hong Tao opened his tablet, glanced at everyone, and then his eyes rested on Zhou Yu and Liu Zifan.
It was this moment that made Liu Zifan's nervousness rise again.
Director Hong Tao, what does this mean?
Did you win or lose?
Zhou Yu understood, because director Hong Tao had had this look before, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised.
"Okay, seeing that everyone is very curious, let me just announce the ranking results for this issue. I won't be too concerned about this issue. I will start reporting directly from the first place."
Everyone knows that director Hong Tao is very good at whetting people's appetites, but this issue is uncharacteristically different.
Everyone's eyes were fixed on Director Hong Tao, and their breathing became a little rapid, but they tried their best to restrain themselves, waiting for Director Hong Tao's announcement.
"First place...Zhou Yu!"
"Second place...Fu Ming!"
"Third place...Zhao Lei!"
"Fourth place...Shen Guangyan!"
"Fifth place...Wang Jiachao!"
"Sixth place...Liu Zifan!"
