Roy rockery seriously looked at the eleven studios in front of him. The unique decoration maintained the original style of the building, and at the same time integrated the characteristics of the artist. Every corner was full of personality, free and rambling, full of youthful vitality, savoring carefully, but it can capture the meditation in the soul.
He can't help but be curious. If reporters recall that the building that always appeared as the background some time ago is the latest work that lanli is now fully devoted to, their expressions must be very wonderful.
As the hottest "new star" in recent years, lanli always seems to be covered with a layer of mystery. Reporters are racking their brains to try to dig into this new actor. Netizens are also discussing various topics. But Roy thinks that the so-called mystery is just people's lack of eyes to discover.
From "buried alive" to "love crazy" to "anti-cancer me", from "Cleopatra" to "Ophelia" to "your bone", every choice of Langley can see his pursuit and persistence. In particular, lanli's music, the music symbols and lyrics from the bottom of his heart, reveal the perseverance and pain in his mind. If you calm down and listen carefully, you can enter lanli's world step by step.
Unfortunately, today's society is too flighty and impatient. No one is willing to slow down and listen carefully.
In fact, it is not entirely correct to say that, "Cleopatra" is an exception, even a miracle.
At the beginning of this year, thanks to the chain effect of the "Allen Show", after 32 weeks on the list, "Cleopatra" strongly ranked in the top 20 of the billboard singles list. Her outstanding performance broke the glasses of countless people and wrote her own record. It was such a ballad without publicity, entity or music video, It is a miracle of independent music that we have achieved such incredible results.
But it's still not the end. After that, the Oscar craze and the topic of "anti-cancer me" continued, and the spotlight around Lan Li never went out of fashion. "Cleopatra" also continued to make efforts to further break the history he created: after 41 weeks in the list, he officially ranked in the top 10!
Top 10 on the billboard list!
And after 41 weeks in the list! In the era of digital music sources, many singles can't stay in the list for more than 20 weeks. Even those popular singles who have successfully won the top, only a few stay for more than 40 weeks. Now, when the other singles are out of the list, "Cleopatra" is not only still in the list, but also incredibly ranked in the top ten!
Some people once joked that for independent musicians, the royalty on a single of the top ten is enough for them to live a lifetime. They can make their favorite music regardless of their own worries. It can be said that it is a dream come true. From this side, we can see how incredible the achievements of Cleopatra are.
What's more, after "Cleopatra" successfully entered the top ten, it was not a week's tour, but actually stayed in the list for five weeks. No one has forgotten that that period was just the period when "borrowing gate" was in full swing, and it was also the period when the discussion of the unveiling war was the hottest. The download popularity of Cleopatra's digital audio source was always high, which also made the single's ranking on the billboard slowly but continuously rising.
In the second week of May, "Cleopatra" got its peak, sixth. This achievement has equalled the highest record of Jason mayez's hit single "I'm yours" and once again written the ballads and fairy tales of the 21st century. But compared with Jason, "Cleopatra" is even more amazing, Langley still did not launch any publicity!
This is the first single since the establishment of the billboard, which has no physical CDs, no radio songs, no music videos, no shelves in any physical stores, and even no means of publicity, but finally made it into the top ten of the billboard list. To be more precise, you can't find such a record on the top 50 historical lists.
Although the following week, "Cleopatra" fell directly out of the top 10, but still ranked 14th, or stayed in the top 20, until today, still ranked 19th, never out of the list. This is the 49 weeks since Cleopatra made the list.
There are 52 weeks in a year. No one doubts that Cleopatra can stay in the list for one year. But now the only question is, after 52 weeks, can this single still stay in the top 25? Can it break the 76 week record of "you are mine"? Now, Cleopatra's weekly journey is to create history, and also to create a history that is insurmountable, unbreakable, unprecedented, and possibly non future.
It is no exaggeration to say that "Cleopatra" is now a phenomenal single in the field of music, even if it is a popular folk song, or precisely because it is a folk song that has been eliminated by the times.
According to the results, "Cleopatra" has achieved a lot of champion singles can not reach the height, and will be countless records in the bag. People should have heard the news that lanli is recording his first solo album for a long time, but the fact is just the opposite——
Just look at the reporters who surround the door of studio 11. They never associate these two things together.
"Cleopatra" single list miracle, not because people understand the meaning of the song, not because people understand the original intention of blue Lee's creation, just because of the topic effect, just because blindly follow the trend, just because of the hype, in short, it is just a part of the additional role, without any substantive significance.
Roy didn't know whether it was the sadness of Langley, or the sadness of the music industry, or the sadness of the whole society. Not only music, but also movies, including people's way of life, communication and values, are quietly changing. Everyone is trying to adapt to the changes and turbulence in the Internet age, but no one knows where the future will go.
But even in this context, lanli is still dedicated to artistic creation, from film to music, especially after "speed and passion 5" has achieved such outstanding results, which is even more valuable. Roy knows that Langley is a unique person, which was the case when he first met at the American actors union, but he doesn't know that Langley is so different.
Looking at the studio in front of him, with the sign of "idiot" on it, Roy suddenly felt a little ironic, but also funny. With the humor of Langley, he understood why Langley chose studio 11 to record the album.
Knock on the door, wait for a while, and then gently push the door, the probe looked in, rough look.
In the spacious and bright recording room, there are three people sitting on the sofa against the wall, one in front of the sound console, and another on the bench beside. He only knew Nathan pres on the bench. At this time, five people did not speak, extremely quiet sitting in place, did not even notice Roy's coming in.
The sound of guitar comes from my ear. It's a wooden folk guitar. The clear and translucent string sound dances under the lemon light. The light sadness is like the wings of a butterfly. Once and again, it flutters up and down, and the crystal clear and bright glittering powder falls down. The whole world is full of hazy.
Roy couldn't help looking up. Then he saw blue Li sitting in the recording booth, holding a guitar in his arms, playing attentively. His slightly drooping face was hidden in the shadow. He could only vaguely see the reflection cast by the thick eyelashes. His eyes fell on the strong slender fingers and listened to his singing.
"My hands gently touch your pain, just like the clouds before the rainstorm. Before taking steps, I recall my story. I hope you can understand the future through my eyes."
The light sadness is like a trickle, flowing slowly in the guitar string sound, the gentle and moving warmth swept through the fingertips, people can't help but close their fingers, touch them carefully, feel the light temperature, and smooth the broken wound a little bit.
"Your heart is full of love, but there is no place to release it. So dry your tears, they're eating your dreams
Roy can clearly see that lanli's eyelids are slightly down, and there is a touch of sadness and bitterness hidden in the shadow, which spreads gently on the tip of his tongue. The vicissitudes of life voice carefully plucks the strings in his heart. Every time, the golden light on the eyelashes trembles. Before he realizes it, the tip of his nose starts to feel slightly sour.
"How many times..." Lan Li's voice gently raised, not flat, but raised waves, "how many times I cross the boundary, just to get close to you, no one loves you so much as I do. Listen to the melody from the heart. No one loves you as much as I do. " The gentleness between the shallow chant and the low chant rippled gently.
Roy could not help but spread out his palm, which was full of pain lines and proud scars. Tears ran through it, and the sour pain came up, but there was no place to put it; Then close the palm, the warmth of the fingertips can clearly feel those deep and shallow gullies, the surge of memories gradually subsided, tears still hanging in the eyes, but the smile on the corner of the mouth gently rose.
Close your eyes, you can see the familiar and strange picture in your mind, holding hands, standing behind you silently, unswervingly guarding, blocking all the danger, blocking all the wind and rain, walking side by side until the end of time. The warmth of those palms is always the last harbor in my heart.
That's maternal love, that's secret love, that's best friend.
