In the past eight years, many new and old faces have appeared on the stage of "Singer".
has seniors like Liu Huan, Qi Qin, and Han Hong, as well as Deng Ziqi, Zhang Bichen, and Hua Chenyu who belong to the new generation of singers.
Even though there have been hundreds of singers on this stage in the past eight years, it cannot represent the Chinese music scene. There are still many outstanding musicians under the
stage. They did not compete on the stage of "Singer", and they did not even have much exposure. They are still worthy of recognition.
For example, Ai Yiliang, the queen of golden song. Ai Yiliang also appeared on the recording scene in the forthcoming fourth episode of "Singer 2020"
.
It is said that Ai Yiliang specially came to cheer on Xu Jiaying, and also gave some suggestions in singing and selecting songs.
thought that Xu Jiaying invited Ai Yiliang to record the show this time, presumably she was going to sing Ai Yiliang's songs, but unfortunately, she did not really "fit together" successfully in the end.
But it's okay. The first appearance of "Singer" also gave Ai Yiliang a chance to face the public. After all, she has been very low-key these years. The name
-01 -
Ai Yiliang is relatively unfamiliar to most of them. Few people have heard her music, let alone that she won the Golden Melody Award.
In 2017, as a newcomer in the music circle, Ai Yiliang was nominated for seven Golden Melody Awards with the album "Said Ai Yiliang".
finally defeated Yang Naiwen and Wei Ruxuan, who had always been optimistic, with this album, and won the Best Mandarin Female Singer Award. After the upset
Golden Melody Awards, Ai Yiliang was once caught in controversy. Some people felt that there must be shady. Some people said that this was because of the collective absence of a large number of Golden Melody award celebrities Zhang Huimei, Cai Jianya, Jolin... Become the biggest "leakage king".
She loves and hates this sudden "Queen".
Later, after the popularity of the Golden Melody Award faded, everyone put the name Ai Yiliang behind, and there was little news about her.
only knows that she has been composing in recent years, writing her own songs, and helping others create songs.
Until last year, the 30th Golden Melody Awards arrived as scheduled. Ai Yiliang returned for the second time and defeated Cai Jianya and Li Ronghao to win the best composer award!
's award-winning album "Living Vertically, Reluctantly Living Horizontally" is a new work that was handed over two years later. Just by listening to the name, you know that this is an album full of thoughts.
With the exploration of life and the meaning of life, Ai Yiliang combines music and philosophy. The title song "Forever Young" from the
album is gradually being sung. The gripping melody of "For Julian" has captured many fragile souls. The second appearance of
Golden Melody Award, she won applause and affirmation. When
-02 -
won the Golden Melody Award in 2017, she was still a newcomer in the eyes of many people.
As everyone knows, as early as 2012, Ai Yiliang was shortlisted for the 2013 Golden Melody Award for Best Newcomer with her first album "If You Love Me".
was also that year, she participated in "China's Strongest Voice" by Hunan Satellite TV.
The halo behind Ai Yiliang, who was still a rookie at the time, has already tried to break out of the situation and let out a rhetoric: "I want to be a queen! "
The song "Old Indian Turtle Dove" is the most impressive.
There is a taste of black music in her voice, but it is not limited to that. She can combine jazz, blue, and r&b without any sense of contradiction.
Coco Lee's "You Are My Superman" has been adapted by her, adding a bit more sexy audio-visual experience.
, whether it is the arrangement or her voice, is really surprising.
Her live explosive force is very strong, her hoarse voice reveals a European and American style, full of aura.
At that time, Luo Dayou, as a mentor, regarded her as a treasure and even accepted her as a disciple at the competition.
In this competition, most people just saw her singing skills and also appreciate her live ability, andLuo Dayou saw the other side: creative ability.
Ai Yiliang, who was accepted as an apprentice by Luo Dayou, has a growing comprehension of creation.
Only then has a later creative talent, Ai Yiliang.
-03 -
As an excellent creator, she has been busy writing songs to others almost all these years.
For a while, Ai Yiliang frequently appeared in the album production lists of major gold medal singers.
At the end of 2017, Ai Yiliang wrote the lyrics and music for the first wave of the new albums by Zhang Huimei and Xu Jiaying.
Says A-mei has always been very rigorous and critical in selecting songs. When the album was still in the stage of collecting songs like a needle in a haystack, A-mei could not find the direction after listening to many demos.
finally felt right until he met Ai Yiliang.
The title song of the same name of Zhang Huimei's album "The Story Stealer" was written and composed by Ai Yiliang, and "The Story Stealer" became the core backbone of the new album. The whole album started from this song.
is when the cooperation between Zhang Huimei and Ai Yiliang after the two big days made everyone's eyes shine.
Everyone saw Ai Yiliang's name in Xu Jiaying's new album. Ai Yiliang took over the lyrics and music of "Insincere" in Xu Jiaying's album "Psychology".
May you always be safe and well
May you always know how to fly
When you were young, you were insincere, but when you grew up, you didn't understand your meaning, just quietly say a wish you are always well.
May you really love someone, someone that person
and know where the warmth comes from
May I really love someone, someone that person
is not to be hurrying is the heart’s desire
The indifferent sentimental melody and simple lyrics are moved.
or the desire for love, or the hesitation after a broken relationship, you will always encounter true love in the end, it is the heart's direction.
seems to be temporarily relieved from all the obscure incomprehensibility, the sadness in Ai Yiliang's lyrics and music ends, and it is more of a warm melody after the loss, which is enough to heal the wounds. The original sentimental tone of
finally gave people a clear exit.
In addition to Zhang Huimei and Xu Jiaying, her songwriting for Liu Ruoying's "Looking at each other is not tired" was selected as the main player, "Why not love" for Yang Kailin, and "What a pity" for Guo Jing...
Ai Yiliang in these years More is standing behind the scenes, writing songs to many musicians, and then she even joked: "no time to write songs for myself. "
Some people say that Ai Yiliang keeps publishing creations and songs, and keeps winning awards. , With a sense of ritual of "changing dynasties" in the music world with the attitude of the leader of the new generation of musicians. Since
won the golden song, the voice has always been like this: "Why doesn't Ai Yiliang become popular."
I think she probably puts her energy into creating behind the scenes.
hopes that one day, she will come to the music stage to meet with everyone with the song she wrote for herself.
