Our song: Zhou Chuanxiong sang "Twilight" in a down-key, let me see his and Land Rover's musical attitude

In this issue of

's "Our Songs", there are quite a lot of songs that can be talked about, one song one song at a time. I haven't had a show like this for a long time, so I can have a good chat with you about singing skills. Before

, there were actually many people who privately messaged me and asked me to talk about Zhou Chuanxiong 's current singing skills. In fact, from this song " Dusk ", we can see a general state of Zhou Chuanxiong's voice. On the stage of

this time, Zhou Chuanxiong and Land Rover completed a down-tuned version of "Dusk" together. Why did

choose to drop? There are many reasons for

. The first thing that can be changed by changing the pitch of a song is the sense of hearing the song gives people. Most singers actually have such a choice when they cover their songs.

For example, when Zhou Shen and sang many classic songs, they would choose a rising tone; when JJ Lin sang Jay Chou 's "The Secret that Can't Tell ", he also chose a rising tone.

because, the rising pitch makes their strengths perfectly displayed.

and Zhou Chuanxiong and Land Rover chose to drop the tone, also to play to their own advantages. The whole song dropped by half a key, and the originally very uncomfortable G4 treble became a G-drop. The singing difficulty of the chorus part of

has dropped a lot. Is it because their singing skills are not enough? Not really!

As I said in the title, Zhou Chuanxiong sang "Dusk" in a down key, which made me see his and Land Rover's musical attitude.

The down-pitched singing of the chorus allows the two singers who are good at singing the lyrical song to better show their charming timbre. The sound near F is very relaxed for both singers, and there is no pressure to sing.

Take the first chorus as an example, the two singers gave me the feeling of being relaxed, relaxed enough, and listening very well. The tightness and stimulation of G4 is less, but there is a completely different sense of hearing.

In addition, since the song is down-keyed, you can add flowers.

For example, in the second verse: "No matter how beautiful the evening is, the night will end."

sang it three times in a row in the dark night. The original never had. If the

does not choose to drop the key here, it means that it needs to be suddenly raised from the bass to G4, and the singing skills are very demanding, otherwise the listening experience will be very bad. The lyric of

that best reflects Zhou Chuanxiong's singing skills, the second chorus: "Love has been disillusioned"

Land Rover sings the original melody, while Zhou Chuanxiong moves upwards. "Magic" word A4, just listening to the scene is a very good quality A4, although the chest sound component is less, but the head sound listening sense is very good. The word "annihilation" after

falls to drop G. In fact, after listening to this version, you may have a completely different understanding of "Dusk". It turns out that "Dusk" can also be sung like this!

can suddenly be raised to A4 on the spot and maintain a high audibility. There are not many in the entire Chinese music scene. Zhou Chuanxiong's singing skills are not bad. Friends who know the voice may understand why they choose to drop the key.

because, if you're going to do more filling changes to the melody, then the drop is the best fit. Because if you don't drop the key, then you need to extend the B-flat, which is completely different from the concept of A4.

suddenly rises to B-flat, and the difficulty of singing increases exponentially... The last chorus of

returns to the original key of the song, adding half a tone. If the front is a new adaptation, the back is the old memory, a very perfect ending.

Moreover, Zhou Chuanxiong chose weak singing in this section, which is more difficult to sing. It is conceivable that there is no problem with weak singing, so there is no problem with singing in the original key.

fell, not only for that A4, but also to make the ending of the song shocking.

This is actually ingenuity, this is the perfect adaptation, this is the attitude that singers should have on this stage.

After listening to this song "Dusk", I look forward to the works after Zhou Chuanxiong and Lu Rover, the two are good at singing lyrical songs, maybe you can consider singing " The Sound of Snow Falling " on the stage next!
