Looking at the countless cheering audience below the stage, Shi Gang, the lead singer of the band on Wednesday, was filled with emotion.
Over the past ten years, the fate of him and Wednesday can be described by ups and downs. When he became famous in 72h and joined gem records, he once thought he had embarked on the smooth path of starlight.
However, many contradictions within the band and with the signing company consumed Shi Gang's too much energy, so that he finally had to take several members to the South and stay away from the mainstream circle.
However, the idea of returning to the capital is always in Shi Gang's heart.
Just make a comeback. He must come back in a glorious way to make the name of Wednesday band loud again in the pop music world!
Now half of Shi Gang's goal has been achieved. Two original and new works have undoubtedly been recognized by the audience, and their applause is the best proof.
He could not help clenching his fist, bowing his thanks and taking the players off the stage.
But as soon as Shi didn't go far, he stood under the steps.
Because he knows that Lu Chen, a popular star in the music world, will sing next!
Shi Gang first heard Lu Chen's name in July last year. At that time, a new singer came to the bar where he was singing. The first song sung by the latter was called "in spring".
Shi Gang still remembers his mood when he first heard "in spring". He was numb all over. The blood in his body rushed straight to his head and he was so excited that he wanted to cry.
This song is so well written!
The author of this song is Lu Chen, a very young singer.
Later, he learned a lot about Lu Chen's works, including Lu Chen's album "you at the same table".
Shi Gang admires Lu Chen's talent in creation. After knowing that Lu Chen will also participate in 72h and play with himself, he feels excited!
A singer must be used to challenge himself and his opponents in order to make continuous progress.
Most importantly, Shi Gang is very confident in his works. He believes that the Wednesday band, which has been rebuilt by himself, will not lose to anyone.
Instead, he looked forward to Lu Chen's debut and couldn't wait to know what new works the latter would produce.
ballad? Or light rock? Or something else?
If you can beat Lu Chen on this stage, his return to Wednesday will be the most perfect!
Just when Shi Gang was confused, Lu Chen took Nirvana band to the big stage.
All eyes were focused on him.
The arrangement of the first day of 72h Music Festival is a little special. In the evening, Liao Jia, Wednesday band and Lu Chen are continuously arranged to create a climax atmosphere, but also let the audience naturally make an intuitive comparison between the three.
Liao Jia's singing is wonderful and his strength is worthy of his reputation.
What the band brought on Wednesday was a surprise, a bright color on its first day of performance, and its original works were of high quality.
So what will Lu Chen, who just appeared, bring to the audience?
Now the audience's appetite has been greatly improved. Although Lu Chen is very famous and has the reputation of music talent, he may not have a wonderful performance.
There are not one or two stars who lost their face in 72h!
The audience's expectations and doubts virtually condensed into a huge pressure on Lu Chen.
Many fans who came to 72h the scene were born in the 1960s and 1970s. Some of them didn't like Lu Chen and thought he was not much different from the so-called small fresh meat in the current entertainment circle.
Speaking, this impression is largely caused by "blue life and death love". Even if you haven't seen this popular TV series, you can't avoid seeing Lu Chen's name on entertainment news and online topics.
In addition, Lu Chen's love with Chen Feier's sister and brother has been widely spread recently, so some people have connected him with the topic idol star, ignoring that he is the creator of works such as spring, flying higher and so on.
So if Lu Chen's performance on the scene is poor, someone must gloat!
72h is a powerful world.
Lu Chen felt the pressure from the challenger and the audience. He was fearless.
Lu Chen is standing here today, not to prove or show off to others, but to realize the dream he once had. He has no urgency to become famous, nor does he need to challenge anyone. There is really no pressure.
"Good evening, everyone. I'm Lu Chen..."
Facing the microphone, Lu Chen made a brief introduction: "Nirvana band is with me."
Wang Jing and others got up to salute, and sparse applause broke out under the stage.
No one has ever heard the name of the band. Applause is purely polite.
Others are screaming - it's Lu Chen's brain powder.
Lu Chen didn't care. He continued, "the first work I brought to you today is called..."
"As free as the wind!"
As soon as his voice fell, the prelude played by bass suddenly sounded, which was transmitted to everyone's ears through six pairs of high-quality outdoor stereos arranged on the scene.
At the next moment, the fierce drums hit people's eardrums, making people's blood boil!
"I am as free as the wind,
Just like your tenderness can't be retained.
You push away my outstretched hands,
You go. You'd better not look back,
Endless drifting, the desire for freedom,
Bear all the vicissitudes alone.
I give you tenderness, you refuse to accept,
I give you the real feeling of your hands,
I give you a long free memory,
I give you all but can't stay.
I am as free as the wind!
……”
As one of the 72h most watched singers of this year, what works Lu Chen will produce has always been one of the hot topics in the small circle. Many people think he can sing the famous works he has made.
This is the safest way. After all, a person's inspiration is always limited. No singer can guarantee that his works are excellent and wonderful. If he takes a new work on the stage but can't be recognized by his fans, it will undoubtedly be a blow to Lu Chen's rising reputation.
Singing their own original old songs is not humiliating. It's safe enough. You know 72h's fans are very picky.
Lu Chen solved the suspense in many people's hearts with a brand-new work!
The name of this song is free as the wind.
The simple and straightforward lyrics have no profound and complex connotation or metaphor. Even without the lyrics prompt on the background screen, everyone can hear them clearly. This is Lu Chen's consistent feature in light rock works.
The melody is still so wonderful!
Only in terms of style, "freedom like the wind" is not as deep as the vicissitudes of "in spring", which is different from the passionate blood of "fly higher", nor as lonely and distant as "Blue Lotus".
This song is uninhibited, uninhibited deep into the bone marrow!
