Originally, I was not going to write an analysis of this song, because there are not many points to write about in singing. But after listening to the loop for a long time in the evening, I woke up in the morning and felt that it was better to write down the details, and I believe that there are still many friends who are willing to watch.
As a fan of Jay Chou and Zhou Shen, I am personally satisfied with this "Orchid Pavilion Preface".
1. Jay Chou's "Orchid Pavilion Preface"
Since it is the original version and the cover version, then naturally there is no contrast, although I like Zhou Shen, but if I choose which version I prefer, I definitely like Jay Chou's version.
It had nothing to do with vocal music, just because it was a sound I was once familiar with.
When a person's voice has this magic, any of his works, in fact, I will be willing to listen to it.
Everyone can say which version they like, which version is no problem, you don't have to struggle, like it or not, it can be expressed.
2. Zhou Shen's "Orchid Pavilion Preface"
The biggest difference between Zhou Shen's version of "Orchid Pavilion Sequence" and the original version is in tone. Because Zhou Shen's own singing skills are excellent enough, the song is set very high in both the treatment of the cavity part and the overall tone, and the difficulty of singing the song is extremely exaggerated.
First of all, the main song of the first paragraph is the most familiar way of processing, with the head sound as the guide, pushing the sound forward, adding more air sounds to modify.
For example, this sentence: "And the ink fragrance does not leave an aftertaste with you." ”
How hard is this sentence to sing? Most people just listen to a hilarity, and many adaptors will not think of more embellishments to the details in such a simple main song part, and Zhou Shen has his own thinking.
We divide sound into three levels, light, balanced, and heavy.
"And" the word is the balance state, the "ink" word tail tone gradually turned light function, and then until the "stay" word is in a balanced state, followed by tightening, the closed accent "stay" word tightening after the sound concentration is instantly quite high, the atmosphere at this time has been stimulated, no more chest sound is added, the increase in the sense of strength is entirely because of the change in concentration.
This tensioned vocal quality is especially evident in the chorus, where the resonance of the voice is almost "exploding". The "absolute" word of "hanging pen is absolute", Zhou Shen usually does not practice the "U" sound less, and the long tone resonance in this place is too comfortable to listen to.
Speaking of the drama part, although many people say that this scene is amazing, I don't think so, mainly because I have listened to too many deep dramas.
The sense of surprise brought by the long and short scenes is far less than the surprise brought by the intermittent scenes of the song, and the chorus of this song is naturally the same.
In addition, the low octave to high octave of the cavity span is more likely to create a sense of surprise, because it is known what the situation of the zhou shen cavity is, so it is not amazing, after all, the routine operation.
To say regret, there must be, the mood of the second chorus did not rise. When I heard the arrangement of the second main song, I knew that the song wouldn't think too much about its heavy function.
The arranger (referring to the arrangement), the estimation set at the beginning is to take the warm route, and finally did not choose to release, but a song as a whole warm to the end.
Especially after the second chorus was extended: "It has nothing to do with the wind and moon." ”
The first three words of this sentence are sung word by word, adding a lot of chest sounds. At that time, the drum sound of the arrangement and the single melody were gradually stronger, and after the last "moon" word, the whole arrangement was directly weakened, and zhou Shen's voice was also weakened.
There is a saying in "The Richest Man in Xihong City": "The atmosphere has been set off here." ”
At least I don't understand it personally, and I couldn't accept the arrangement when I first listened to it.
Zhou Shen's singing skills are still very strong, and the next sentence has been changed: "There is no fear of right and wrong in the world." ”
The word "non" C5 to ascend D5 and then turn back to C5, a tone that tests the male voice's singing ability.
Almost done, I wrote while listening, and overall, it is still a song worth listening to, and the singing is there.
