Chapter 38 You asked me how much I love you
The melodious string music has a heavy tone, elegant tune, cheerful rhythm and is very pleasant to the ears.
The clear sound of the dulcimer is like a wind chime.
The short ten-second prelude has already made many people immersed in the music.
Is this the prelude to pop music?
Are you sure this isn't an entry for an international pure music award?
Who can sing and compose such an elegant, beautiful and excellent piece of music without sounding out of place?
Isn't this funny?
An Lan on the stage was looking at none other than Han Zhou in the audience.
If it weren't for Han Zhou, An Lan wouldn't want to sing this song at all.
This song is only sung for Han Zhou.
"You ask me how much I love you?"
"How much do I love you?"
"My love is also true...
"My love is also true...
"The moon represents my heart~"
When the first word of the song came out, all the audience were immersed in it.
For this performance, Han Zhou practiced with An Lan for two days after finishing the music.
Normally, An Lan would be able to sing exactly the same as Han Zhou imagined after listening to the demo, but this time, she failed to meet Han Zhou's requirements.
Because Han Zhou was singing the demo by himself and couldn't express the essence of the song, he could only slowly guide An Lan with words to help her understand how to sing the song.
Sweetness is the first priority, but it can’t be too sweet.
The melody of this song is a two-part AB structure with a repetition. Part A is a compound phrase structure of two phrases, each of which has two sub-phrases, and the last sub-phrase falls on the tonic, expressing a kind of persistence and determination.
If it's too sweet, it'll seem frivolous.
Besides being sweet, it is also stable.
In addition to sweetness and stability, the third requirement is that the sound should be like the sound of nature, but with sweetness and stability.
In this world, there is no queen who is good at singing sweet songs, so no one has ever tried to sing the sweetest sound of nature.
Just for this reason, Han Zhou and An Lan spent two days in the recording studio!
Two days later, Han Zhou still didn't understand how An Lan had understood that kind of sound, but An Lan just did it.
At this moment, An Lan's eyes were the answer.
"You asked me how much I love you
How much do I love you
My love is unwavering
My love remains unchanged
The moon represents my heart~"
An Lan looked at Han Zhou affectionately, love, but it was definitely not love expressed in voice, because love expressed in voice would make every audience member who heard it feel the love, and this love was not for the audience.
But it is for the person that An Lan truly loves.
When she sang "My feelings remain unchanged, my love never changes", An Lan did not rush to use her voice to prove the eternality of love.
An Lan just used her eyes to tell Han Zhou, you know, I love you no matter what.
Through the camera, the audience can see that An Lan is very affectionate, but this affection is not expressed towards the camera.
The camera can only see this sincere love from a third perspective.
"A gentle kiss!
It has touched my heart~
A deep love!
I miss you till now~"
When she sang to this point, An Lan couldn't help but smile.
An Lan thought about when the filming of "Mr. Tree" was completed, Han Zhou got drunk and fell asleep on the chair.
She went to take a picture, and Han Zhou woke up.
A gentle kiss.
It was at that time that Han Zhou truly touched An Lan's heart.
"You asked me how much I love you
How much do I love you
Think about it
You take a look
The moon represents my heart~"
The interlude sounded, a melodious interlude, invincible.
How invincible? The audience is going crazy!
I wanted to scream like crazy, I wanted to shout 'An Lan I love you! '
However, I didn’t want to ruin this beautiful, charming and elegant performance, so I had to hold it back, shaking with excitement and tears streaming down my face.
Even Han Zhou in the audience was stunned.
If we say that in her previous life, Queen Deng swept away all enemies and was popular with both men and women, her number of fans at her peak even far exceeded that of an epoch-making superstar like Jay Chou.
Now An Lan truly possesses all the excellent characteristics of Queen Deng when she sings.
A little less softness, a little more elegance.
But three more points of youth, five more points of slimness.
The most important thing is that An Lan is beautiful! She is one of those people whose appearance has reached the extreme. Who can I complain to? ? ? !
"A gentle kiss
It has touched my heart
A deep love
Makes me miss you till now
You asked me how much I love you~"
Fall!
Completely conquered! The boys and girls learned what sweetness is through the songs.
Middle-aged men and women heard dignity and purity in the singing.
Although it is a love song, the lyrics reject vulgarity and are free of utilitarianism, selfishness, distractions and preaching.
It is consistent with the traditional Chinese implicit beauty.
Using the bright moon in the sky, the song sings the artistic conception of "the purest, best and most beautiful love" in human nature.
An Lan on the stage was not as powerful at this moment as when she sang "Persistence".
Not as charming as when she sang "Flammable and Explosive".
It’s not as fashionable as singing "Lover Missed".
It’s better to sing "Cloudy Day" to make people feel pity.
But just like the lyrics and the song, it is pure and makes fans love it purely.
The purer the emotion, the crazier it is.
I wonder how many people in front of the TV have become An Lan's lifelong fans at this moment.
This is also what An Lan wants.
Give love to Han Zhou, and give excellent singing to his fans.
Don’t love me, loving me is fruitless. You can like my songs. If you don’t like them, I will use my singing to make you like them!
"Think about it
You take a look
The moon represents my heart~"
In the interlude, the strings are melodious, and various string instruments are combined together, but it is not complicated, impetuous or discordant.
Together, so pure.
A little bit of piano purity, a little bit of dulcimer like wind chimes, a little bit of bass whispering, and a little bit of guitar melody.
Various excellent string instruments from ancient times to the present, both at home and abroad, have captured the most elegant and pure sounds in this interlude.
It also makes me feel lost.
This sounds like... it's almost over?
There were even fans who cried and stretched out their hands, wanting to keep An Lan and keep her on this stage.
This is what fans are like. What fans like is the feeling, this strong feeling.
And singers sometimes give feelings, and sometimes give true emotions.
When she sang the last part, An Lan was shocked to find that she could only give her true feelings to Han Zhou, and all she had left for her fans was a vague feeling.
But it is precisely because the love given to fans is not pretended, but truly given to a specific person, that the feeling of love is so strong.
Like the bright moon, like flowing water.
But so strong.
Because of purity .
Flowing water, without impurities.
Moonlight, without impurities.
Love has no impurities.
"Think about it~"
"You take a look"
"The moon represents my heart~"
The words fall, and the strings stop.
"Da da da, da da da, da da~da" the sound becomes lighter and lighter.
When the last string music ended, the screams from the audience made the radio receiver buzz.
Fortunately, the broadcast was delayed by a few minutes, giving the director a chance to strip out the problematic audio track.
An Lan on the stage didn't shed tears or get excited, she just smiled faintly.
An Lan understood from the song.
She sang it to Han Zhou.
Han Zhou also wrote it for her to see.
Hence, this song came into being.
You asked me how much I love you, there is no answer, because you need to look and think about it. The moon represents my heart.
No matter if it is cloudy or not, no matter if it rains or blows hard, no matter how high the mountain is or how far the road is, no matter where in the world there is, no matter how much time has passed, no matter anything, the moon is always there.
Han Zhou in the audience applauded with a smile.
An Lan suddenly felt like crying.
Because Han Zhou rarely listens to a song without being mesmerized.
At this moment, Han Zhou finished listening to the song and still looked at himself.
Isn't the hint obvious?
An Lan used to be very free and easy, and looked down on some couples in the entertainment industry.
Why hide when you are in love?
But what can we do? Love is a thread, but there is no way to build a bridge over it. We have used up all our strength in trying to pull the thread, so what can others do?
But An Lan smiled, because I, An Lan, am an expert at building bridges!
What? Never built a bridge before?
I am An Lan, what I say is what it is, I say I am an expert at building bridges, and Han Zhou has said, 'I am An Lan, invincible in the world!'
Liu Yiling couldn't help but stand up and applaud, screaming: "This is the best song I have heard in recent years, the most sincere expression I have ever heard. No matter from which angle, your interpretation of "The Moon Represents My Heart" is flawless!"
"From today on, I am your fan!"
An Lan held the microphone with both hands and thanked her with a smile: "Thank you, I am your fan, Sister Yiling!"
Everyone laughed.
Because in the first round, An Lan sang "Listen to Mom", and there was a line in the lyrics that An Lan said to her childhood self from the perspective of her adult self.
'You will like pop songs in the future because Liu Yiling started singing "Fields".'
Lin Xiaoxing let out a sigh of relief.
Chen Feng looked at Lin Xiaoxing with a smile: "What's wrong?"
Lin Xiaoxing: "I'm willing to exchange five of my masterpieces for this love song!"
Chen Feng: "Oh ? Your own masterpiece has become the unit of measurement for the value of Han Zhou's works?"
Lin Xiaoxing was stunned for a moment. Last time he said he would exchange three songs for Han Zhou's song "Sunny Day", and this time he wanted to exchange five songs for "The Moon Represents My Heart". This is a huge loss!
No wonder I can’t become the king of love songs, it turns out what I lack is not anything else but Han Zhou!
An Lan is so lucky!
They chatted happily for a while.
Chen Feng: "Okay, it's time to vote. Next is Han Zhou's performance."
An Lan finally said: "Audience members who like Han Zhou, remember to vote for Han Zhou."
At this time, Han Zhou came on stage.
Chen Feng asked: "Han Zhou, for the last song, do you have anything to say?"
Han Zhou nodded: "After careful consideration, I decided to quit the music industry. Of course, I may continue to sing in the future, but because I don't have special training and don't protect my voice, I may not be able to make progress in this field."
Han Zhou knew that he was singing based on his talent and had never practiced much, so he was not comparable to An Lan.
But I may not have the chance to practice in the future.
At this time, the audience did not react much, because everyone knew that Han Zhou had some mental problems, and it was normal for him to say that he wanted to quit the music industry!
Han Zhou continued: "My singing voice is actually pretty good. Even with my weak voice, I can still sing high notes. Maybe I can sing even higher after training."
"I haven't sung high-pitched songs before because my throat felt uncomfortable for a week after singing the high notes in the audition."
"This time it's the last song, I chose a song with the highest notes that I can fully control now, and use this song to bid farewell to the stage."
Having complete control and being able to sing are two different things.
The highest note of Han Zhou's "Existence" is as high as C5, but that was shouted out, not sung with 100% complete control. Maybe next time he sings on stage, he will break the voice.
The next song he is going to sing represents the extreme vocal range that Han Zhou has mastered 100%.
Han Zhou can sing C5 in his natural voice, which can be said to be a gifted male singer. However, many high-pitched singers have to practice until they are over 30 years old before they can develop their entire vocal range.
Han Zhou now feels that it is difficult for him to concentrate on training this given his situation, so for this song, he will stay in the 4-note group (C4 to B4 on the piano, the voice change range for ordinary people).
Liu Yiling nodded: "I still think that you should stay in the music industry. If you win the championship, can you stay in the music industry?"
Han Zhou smiled and said, "Fate? Betting on luck? I don't like betting on this. Let's sing first and talk about it later."
Lin Xiaoxing: "Please start your last song."
The song information appeared on the rear screen.
The Moon's Trouble
as always.
Lyricist: Han Zhou.
Composer: Han Zhou.
Arranger: Han Zhou.
Singer: Han Zhou.
An Lan sang "The Moon Represents My Heart" and looked at Han Zhou infatuatedly.
Han Zhou stood on the stage, ready to sing "It's the Moon's Trouble".
But he couldn't look at An Lan seriously.
