Chapter 285: Such a Confession
The scorching temperature rolled in the surging sound waves, and Yun Yun Jingxiao's powerful roar ignited everyone's passion.
The Shanghai Gymnasium, which can accommodate 80,000 people, was packed today, with China's most loyal rock fans and Miss Luo Quan fans standing below the stage.
However, Miss Luo Quan wasn't the protagonist today; she was just the electric guitarist in Lovemusic.
Previously, Yun Yun Jingxiao basically played the electric guitar, but holding a guitar easily affected his overall stage presence and performance focus.
After Miss Luo Quan came, the work of playing the electric guitar was handed over to her, Kamiya Kamigaya Lingyin was responsible for the keyboard, Miyano Natsuko was responsible for the bass, and An Shi You was still the drummer.
This performance was a large-scale concert held by a big international name in China, which was rare in recent years. Tencent Video bought the exclusive broadcast rights for this concert through Miss Luo Quan.
Besides the 80,000 people below the stage, hundreds of thousands of fans were watching in front of the screen.
Although the Lovemusic band had debuted for less than a year, the level of the band members had reached that of a first-class band, especially Yun Yun Jingxiao's singing, which could be called top-tier.
On the other hand, his own guitar level was also top-tier in Asia.
But today with Miss Luo Quan, he didn't need to be distracted to play the guitar.
As an important instrument that a singer must know, Miss Luo Quan had specifically upgraded it by spending a lot of popularity points before.
Although she hadn't drawn any related upgrade cards, the limited upgrade cards she could buy in the mall were enough to raise her guitar level to the S+ level, absolutely enough.
The concert lasted for nearly four hours, and the last song was ended by Miss Luo Quan.
Yun Yun Jingxiao and Miss Luo Quan swapped microphones and guitars. Although he was the lead singer in the band, there was still one song that was Miss Luo Quan's reserved program.
Lovemusic has many hit songs, and their rankings in rock charts in many countries are very high.
But in Japan, no song can compare to the influence of 'Unravel'.
They had only performed this song once, and the only version was recorded on the stage of a college student singing competition.
It was also that live performance that was deified by the Japanese ACG circle. Miss Luo Quan's singing was embodied vividly by this song, and it was also the song publicly recognized as the most difficult for Miss Luo Quan to cover, because currently, no one can sing the flavor she has.
And tonight, amidst the cheers of 80,000 people, Miss Luo Quan sang 'Unravel' again, using her perfect and explosive singing to draw a perfect end to this concert.
Amidst the overwhelming screams and cheers, the five members of the band bowed to the fans together and announced the news that a new album was in preparation.
This surprise made all the fans instantly boil over.
Although there was no sign, it had been so long, and it was indeed time to release a new album.
Nothing to say, just buy it!
The concert ended, and the band members dragged their exhausted bodies back to the hotel.
They talked about having a meal together in the morning, but now everyone had no strength left.
Playing heavy rock, it's really not possible without a healthy body.
In Miss Luo Quan's memory, many of those who played rock in the previous life didn't live long. On one hand, they were indulgent and took drugs, and on the other hand, they were overdrawing their energy for performances.
Fortunately, the Lovemusic band's performances were far less frequent than those predecessors, keeping the frequency at one every half month, with enough rest time, and everyone insisted on fitness, so they could still hold up.
But like a lazy worm like Miss Luo Quan, sitting in front of the computer or lying on the bed every day, lacking exercise? It was indeed impossible for her to hold a concert like other band members.
No way, the body is weak, and there are restrictions on doing many things.
The good news is, song-writing doesn't.
Miss Luo Quan found some time in the afternoon and wrote the lyrics and music for the first song of the new album.
Printing several copies, the other band members got them and immediately started playing in the hotel.
Because it was produced by Miss Luo Quan, the arrangement was also completed by her.
The five people gathered together, and Miss Luo Quan played a sample for everyone with a guitar.
"How is this song? Are you satisfied?" Miss Luo Quan asked for Yun Yun Jingxiao's opinion.
"This is what I want!" Yun Yun Jingxiao was so excited that his hands were trembling. He felt that the lyrics of this song simply sang out all the emotions in his heart.
Such torment, pleading, and intense love must be able to move Leila!
"Then let's do it like this? Everyone practice well." Miss Luo Quan smiled and nodded. Before everyone returned to their rooms, she let everyone sit together and took a group photo.
After returning to the room, Miss Luo Quan took a shower first, relieved the fatigue, and finally lay softly on the bed after drying her hair.
"Long time no see, friends." Miss Luo Quan posted the photo to Bilibili, immediately receiving tens of thousands of likes and comments.
At the same time, her name and the band's name were also on the hot searches of Weibo and Some Zhihu.
The hot search on Weibo had no nutrition; it was all fans who went to the scene excitedly telling netizens how explosive the scene was and how high the atmosphere was.
And on Some Zhihu, they were discussing, "Can China produce an international rock band like Lovemusic in the future?"
Answer:
"Very difficult, this is not just a matter of Miss Luo Quan composing music. The band members must also have such world-class playing techniques.
In fact, the rock environment in China is still quite good. In the 80s and 90s of the last century, rock also occupied the domestic music market for a time.
However, with the dissolution and retirement of those old bands, rock has declined in China. I haven't seen a proper new rock band for a long time, and I haven't heard a proper Chinese rock song for a long time.
Maybe there will be in the future, but for now, let's listen to foreign ones."
"The free and unrestrained spirit of rock is actually contrary to the conservative traditions of China. There was a market before, but now it is destined to be niche.
Lovemusic is so popular, on one hand, they are indeed the best among newcomers, and on the other hand, the songs are excellent. Miss Luo Quan deserves the credit. Her creation and the lead singer's voice are the soul of this band.
I have no hope for Chinese rock, it just depends on whether Miss Luo Quan is willing to write it."
From the answers, it can be seen that most Chinese people hold a negative attitude toward Chinese rock, and many people are counting on her.
But to be honest, she herself never thought about doing Chinese rock.
Chinese rock has had quite a few good works, but those works emphasize art and connotation too much and generally don't have commerciality, that is, singability.
If it were really made, she definitely couldn't sing this rock, and even if she sang it, it's estimated that not many people would be willing to pay for it.
It may sound very selfish, but she usually doesn't do this kind of thankless work.
Silently liking the answer ranked first, Miss Luo Quan rested early.
The next day, Miss Luo Quan went to the Shanghai branch of Universal Music and officially started the production of the album. Before that, she handed all the sheet music for the remaining nine songs of the new album to the band members.
Because they wouldn't stay in China for too long, practicing one by one and then recording is definitely not realistic.
It can only be completed by Miss Luo Quan producing the accompaniment, and Yun Yun Jingxiao and her completing the singing. Of course, the other three also have to come for harmony, all participating.
However, the main body of the record is still here with Miss Luo Quan and Yun Yun Jingxiao. But in the future, they have to solve it themselves when holding concerts. Anyway, this round of touring has ended, and the next round is at least early next year. In addition to studying and making up lessons, there is enough time to practice.
In order to pursue speed, the electric guitar part of the first song was completed by Miss Luo Quan alone, and Yun Yun Jingxiao was only responsible for singing.
The song is not difficult, because the essence and difficulty of this song are all in the guitar part.
As one of the greatest rock love songs in the previous life, this song is nearly eight minutes long, and the second half is all guitar solos. Wanting that intense love requires extreme emotion and technique.
Miss Luo Quan has no problem with technique, but the emotion is lacking.
But this is also her consistent problem, not easy to change, but ordinary people can't hear it. After Yun Yun Jingxiao learns it, it will be fine to record it again in the future.
Yun Yun Jingxiao spent two days mastering this love song that carried all his love.
When recording, he felt his emotions were about to overflow with tears. Everyone outside the recording studio was applauding Yun Yun Jingxiao's performance. Sure enough, rock still has to be sung with emotion.
The song production was completed, and Universal Music released the news in the evening:
"Produced by Miss Luo Quan, Lovemusic's new album 'Rock and Roll' (Long Live Rock and Roll) is coming, the main new song will be released tomorrow night at eight o'clock, please look forward to it!"
A piece of news almost exploded the music circle of the whole world.
No matter how desolate and declining rock music is, it is still the modern music form that once had the greatest influence in the world. Even now, it still has a large number of loyal fans and no small appeal.
Whenever those rock veterans hold comeback concerts, the scene is always full, and fans are high.
And no matter what music chart, there are always many rock songs.
Rock is the mark of an era, the beautiful memory of countless people's hot-blooded youth, and the most attitudinal response to the shitty reality.
Perhaps rock will no longer be popular and move toward niche, but the rock spirit will never disappear.
Just like the name of this new album by Lovemusic, Rock and Roll!
As the most successful rock band in the new century, Lovemusic's new album is naturally highly anticipated by the music world, not to mention that it was produced by Miss Luo Quan herself.
The latter is already a gold signboard in the music world. Whether in the pop music circle or the classical music circle, she has considerable influence.
Countless charts and media call Miss Luo Quan one of the greatest musicians of the 21st century, and even many people think that this "one of" can be removed.
Last year, she established her status in rock history with 'We Will Rock You'. Now that she has finally picked up rock music again, whether it is her own fans or rock fans, they are all looking forward to what kind of answer she can come up with.
Looking forward to whether this answer can be as famous as 'Time to Say Goodbye' and 'My Heart Will Go On'!
The next night at eight o'clock, the song was released on time.
'Layla' (Original singer: Eric Clapton)
What Universal released was the version of Yun Yun Jingxiao singing in the recording studio. In fact, Miss Luo Quan and others were playing and harmonizing on the side, but the camera was aimed at him alone from beginning to end.
In the video, Yun Yun Jingxiao sang incomparably affectionately and focusedly.
This is a song that you will fall in love with deeply just by listening to the prelude.
This is a love song that is naturally sycophantic when the emotion is deep. The lyrics are relatively explicit, which is a confession to the lover, begging for her response.
It is worth mentioning that there are also Yun Yun Jingxiao's original words below the video:
"Leila, because of some misunderstandings, we lost contact. These days I have been unable to eat or sleep for you. I hope this song can let you understand my heart. I cannot lose your love!"
Using this way to confess is really the first time.
However, rock fans really eat this set, feeling that Yun Yun Jingxiao is true to his feelings, and also curious about which girl can make him unable to eat or sleep.
Setting aside the additional value Yun Yun Jingxiao added to this song, the song itself is of extremely high quality, like a romantic love epic, and the guitar performance of the whole song also makes all fans amazed.
As soon as the song was released, it directly parachuted into major music charts, launching an impact on Miss Luo Quan at the top of the chart together with Lyon's two new songs.
Currently, Miss Luo Quan's 'Time to Say Goodbye', 'My Heart Will Go On', and 'Rolling in the Deep' are basically in the top three of major music charts, but they have been released for so long, and compared to these new songs, the popularity is still not as good. It is estimated that it won't be long before they are squeezed out.
But anyway, they are all songs written by Miss Luo Quan fighting in front of the chart, and all other singers are squeezed to outside the top twenty.
As Miss Luo Quan writes more and more songs, it is very likely that the top fifty of the chart will all be Miss Luo Quan.
Such a grand occasion is the first time it has appeared in the entire history of Billboard, and I don't know if Miss Luo Quan can set such a record that can be called a miracle.
After 'Layla' was released, the rock circle at the top of the music contempt chain was almost frantically restless.
In this circle, there hasn't been such an excellent love song for a long time.
This is what they have been looking forward to, the cry of love that can touch people's hearts!
At the same time, in every house in London, England, a girl accidentally brushed this 'Layla' that was raging on major charts.
The name of the song was actually the same as hers. The girl clicked to play and actually heard this quite familiar voice.
Out of curiosity, she searched for related information on Twitter, and then she saw Yun Yun Jingxiao's confession.
Although he didn't say the name, who he was referring to couldn't be more obvious.
Late at night, Yun Yun Jingxiao hadn't fallen asleep yet.
He quietly flipped through the chat records between him and Leila. The date of her last message showed it was 2017.7.13.
That was the third day after he left London.
His soul seemed to have stayed in London, and he had been absent-minded since that day.
The taste of losing contact with a lover is painful. Until now, he hadn't had a chance to explain clearly to Leila.
Looking at Senior Jinggong Yazu confessing to Miss Luo Quan before, he was so painful, and he often asked him and An Shi You to go out for drinks, he didn't understand.
Now that it's his turn, he knows how tormenting it is to be trapped by love.
"I don't know when Leila will see it............" Yun Yun Jingxiao sighed and was about to put down his phone when a new message suddenly came in the chat box that hadn't moved for a long time.
"Are you okay?"
A simple greeting, Yun Yun Jingxiao was trembling all over with excitement.
"I'm okay, how about you?" ===== CHAPTER 286 =====
