No one thought that in these years, such magical things would happen one after another.
Everything stems from the explosion of a variety show, "Singer 2024".
First of all, it is the whole people who play memes.
"Singer" was off the air for four years, and suddenly restarted, and everyone thought that this "professional" music variety would turn out to be on the street, but they didn't expect it to become popular because of Na Ying's expressions.
Listening to foreign singers singing, Na Ying, who has always been known for playing straight balls, twisted the muscles on her face into a rope.
From surprise and amazement, it gradually turned into tangled internal friction.
While applauding, I thought to myself, does the Chinese music scene have to rely on me, a 56-year-old "old man", to support it alone?
The original 5 to 2 turned into a difficult 1 to 4.
The fifty-year-old lady guarded the city gate, and Yehenala Yingzi fought against foreigners, which became a hot stalk on the whole network for a while.
Secondly, it is popular on the whole network.
After the launch of "Singer 2024", it has received more than 1,352 hot searches, ranking first in the ratings of major provincial satellite TVs, setting a record for the highest ratings of Hunan Satellite TV's prime-time variety show on Friday this year.
As a result, Mango's stock price rose sharply, and its market value soared by 5 billion overnight.
"Wang Xinling Concept Stocks" reappeared, and the influence of variety show network stalks once again penetrated the third wall and affected the capital market.
The reappearance of Wang Xinling's explosive period in 2022 is undoubtedly a shot in the arm for the current variety show.
Finally, there is collective shame.
Two foreign "unknown" singers who came to "kick the gym" tore off the fig leaf of domestic entertainment in the second half of "Singer 2024".
Because of the endless emergence of various "lip-syncing" incidents, everyone's requirements for singing music comprehensives have changed from "skills" to "truth".
Unexpectedly, two high-level foreign singers, in "Singer 2024", which has no sound repair, no post-production, real-time live broadcast, and real-time ranking, made many audiences who are intoxicated by the false prosperity of the Chinese music scene open their eyes to the world.
What I realized this time is the gap between the Chinese music scene and the world standard.
It's time to really compete in technology, and no one in China can fight, and they still need to rely on the old-timers.
Na Ying fought hard and won a third place.
Fans outside the venue have asked for help, and "Save Yingzi" is endless, and more than 20 professional singers have "asked for battle" on their social media.
In an instant, participating in a variety show seems to carry patriotic feelings and national feelings.
But later it was discovered that the reason why the lineup of "Singer" couldn't hold down the scene was because of the use of the form of "live singing", which made many people retreat, and after "refusing", it was inevitable that there would be another sigh.
So, can the two foreign Grammys, Shanti Mo and Fancia, really tear apart the Chinese music scene by themselves?
If you really compete on the stage, singing skills, skills, and live broadcast, is there anyone in China who has any hope of "cutting them off"?
Brother Pi doesn't know much about music, but I still believe that "Singer 2024" did not come up with a strong enough lineup to face the impact of foreigners this time.
Below, let's rank the ten Chinese music singers who can compete with the champion in "Singer 2024".
In order, as long as they have two people present, they may be able to pull us back:
10th place: Alain
Alan was born in Kangding, Sichuan, and made his debut in Japan, with a solid foundation shared by Japanese trainees.
In July 2006, Alan partnered with Han Hong in "Heavenly Road" and won the runner-up in the Shanghai Asian Music Festival Newcomer Finals.
The following year, Alan was nominated for Best Original Film Song at the 28th "Hong Kong Film Awards" for "Heart War", and in 2012, he won the Outstanding Chinese Singer Award for Chinese Golden Melody.
When it comes to technical female singers, Alain is easy to overlook.
Because she is not as famous as Deng Ziqi and not as old as Huang Qishan, but if you have heard Alan sing, you can know that her singing skills are on the stage of full open mic and real-time live broadcast, which is the top level of the Chinese music scene.
Alain's vocal skills are comprehensive, and he is good at ethereal and beautiful high-position vocal mode, and his voice expression is extremely vivid and expressive.
What's even more remarkable is that she is able to combine different techniques and use her extremely relaxed stage sense to create unique sound effects.
For example, the perfect fusion of pop, two-dimensional and Tibetan singing methods sings to sing rich layers and emotional expressions full of vitality.
If Alan is here, the Chinese singer of "Singer 2024" will definitely have the strength to fight.
Ninth place: Faye Wong
Needless to say, Faye Wong is known as the "queen of Chinese music".
She debuted early, has great influence, has received numerous honors, and even set a Guinness World Records record for the highest-selling Cantonese female singer.
Faye Wong's singing skills are top-notch, her voice is ethereal, and she has a strong intonation atmosphere, and she can interpret works that meet her own style with a unique charm.
Her timbre is clear and soft, delicate and magnetic, and she is a unique presence in the Chinese music scene.
In the record era, Faye Wong is the absolute queen.
But Faye Wong has a shortcoming, that is, live singing.
It has been proven more than once that when Faye Wong sings live, her voice will become unstable, and people are easy to be nervous, not relaxed enough, and cannot play the diva level in the record.
At the same time, Faye Wong has strong singing characteristics, there are many songs, her timbre and singing style are uncontrollable, and she is not a live all-rounder.
Therefore, Faye Wong can only rank ninth on this list.
Eighth place: Han Lei
Han Lei has outstanding singing skills and singing strength, and is the overall champion of "I Am a Singer Season 2".
Han Lei is a pop singer with top-notch laryngeal manipulation skills, which allows him to sing palace-level quality songs although he is using this seemingly "can't get on the stage" singing method.
Han Lei's voice conditions are unique, and his voice is extremely shocking and penetrating.
Han Lei's singing is not only rough and heroic, majestic, but also has a domineering imperial spirit that looks down on the world.
"Borrowing from the Sky for Another 500 Years", "Waiting", "The Vast Universe" and "Walking in All Directions" are all famous works of Han Lei.
What's even more commendable is that although Han Lei's voice is domineering, it is also tender, thanks to his extremely high understanding of sound color, so that the song can be presented so richly and thickly.
This makes Han Lei's voice have a broad tolerance and can control various styles of songs, and the song "Dark Fragrance" in "I Am a Singer" is still intoxicating.
For a live PK variety show, Han Lei's typhoon is also very stable, suitable for live broadcast, and more suitable for showing off skills.
A form like "Singer 2024" is simply his natural arena.
Seventh place: Lin Zhixuan
Although it has been made clear that he cannot participate in "Singer 2024", Lin Zhixuan's singing skills are still nostalgic, especially when other singers are "beaten" by foreign singers.
Although Lin Zhixuan is not a superstar, he has top singing skills recognized by the public.
He is "one of the three most beautiful voices in Taiwan", his voice is clear and pure, and he has a charming emotion that other singers do not have.
At the same time, Lin Zhixuan's pitch quality is very high, and he never has pitch problems because it is live or recorded, whether it is extremely high or very low pitch, he can accurately control it.
听过他唱《The power of love》和《Making Love Out Of Nothing At All》两首歌的观众,应该能听懂他唱功的层次。
Let Lin Zhixuan sing these two English songs of Shanti Mo and Fanxia, he will be able to control it casually.
In particular, Lin Zhixuan's strong voice is of extremely high quality, full of resonance, generous voice, smooth use of mixed vocal form, and the magnifying glass can't pick out the timbre fault, which is the ceiling of technical flow in Chinese male singers.
I hope that next time, he can help Yingzi.
Sixth place: Daolang
In recent years, one of the most underrated pop singers in singing skills is Daolang.
Daolang is a singer-songwriter, as early as 20 years ago, when many singers were not popular, Daolang became popular all over the streets.
Many people think that singers who are BGM on the street all day long are basically saliva singers, with no singing skills, let alone artistic standards.
But for Daolang, it's really not like this.
Daolang's early music style was seriously homogeneous, which affected the popularity of his songs in the later period, but Daolang's singing skills, even if they are placed in the current singer group, are also at the top level.
In his songs, there are a large number of high C and above trebles, the timbre is bright and hoarse, and it has a unique sense of desert vicissitudes in the western man, which can be said to have its own style.
In addition, Daolang's timbre is mainly reflected in the hanging of the pronunciation point, as well as the treble metal core voice, which makes him extremely expressive on stage, and the 2007 Workers' Stadium concert is the ultimate form of his stage.
It's just that for various reasons, Daolang has not always been at the forefront of Chinese pop music.
Even though there has been some improvement in the past two years, it is also because of the controversy of the new work.
If time can be rewind 15 years ago, if Daolang can precipitate, maybe he can become "Luo Dayou in the mainland".
Fifth place: Sun Nan
This list can't avoid Sun Nan, after all, Sun Nan was once known as the "first brother in the mainland".
Sun Nan has top-level singing skills, especially high notes, which is Sun Nan's "killer feature".
Sun Nan has strong basic skills, strong true sound penetration, bright timbre, and high resonance points, which is a typical pharyngeal resonance.
This kind of singing method can raise the quality of the four sets of trebles to the highest level, so Sun Nan can sing B4, not blowing.
The reason why Sun Nan is famous is because on the stage, the treble has a natural charm.
Being able to soar high pitch is the key for many people who eat melons to judge a singer's singing skills, which gives Sun Nan an advantage on the stage, and with a stage performance like "Singer 2024", Sun Nan will definitely be able to play his best.
He even contributed a HighC to the live scene of "I Am a Singer", which burned all over the audience.
However, Sun Nan's singing style has few changes, and compared with textbooks, musicality and aesthetics, it is also frequently criticized by professionals.
Some people say that his singing style is ingenious, and it is a way of singing that caters to the ears of the audience, and he is not effective.
But "Red Flag Fluttering", "You Come Back Soon", and "See You Soon" are indeed popular songs.
Professionally, there are opinions of opinion, but Sun Nan is definitely a powerful singer, and he is also him
The addition of "I Am a Singer" has taken "I Am a Singer" to a new level.
I don't know if Sun Nan will have the consciousness of rushing to the scene to fight the fire when he sees the eldest sister being beaten by foreigners.
4th place: Tengger
Over the years, Tengger has completely let himself go.
However, as soon as "Singer 2024" began, Tengger's social media was attacked, and it seems that the eyes of the masses are bright, knowing that this old-timer still has the strength to fight.
Some people say that Tengger is just a combination of pop singing and folk singing, and there is no technical content.
But some people say that Tengger's singing skills are palace-level in the Chinese music scene, and he is an unrivaled "singing monster".
Other professional issues aside, just after Tengger's comeback, the entire Chinese music scene was sung as "Prairie Flavor" with one mouth, so that everyone listened to his cover and forgot the original song, which can explain Tengger's skills from the side.
Tengger's voice is high-pitched, vigorous and powerful, with a heroic timbre and a strong aura, with a unique grassland temperament.
Over the years, Tengger has not changed his original characteristics in the continuous covers, but has carried forward his personal characteristics and the mood is extremely elegant.
What's more precious is that Tengger's singing style is self-contained, which is difficult to learn and imitate, and the contrast between the strength and weakness of his true voice is great, and the singing style is extremely complex, and the auditory appeal is incomparable.
Everyone should know that "Singer" invited the foreign big devil Jessie J in 2018 and won the championship in one fell swoop.
And what Jessie J was most shocked, admired and deeply attracted to was Tengger.
After Jessie J participated in "Singer", Tengger's songs were sung all over the world, and countless foreign netizens who like to sing were attracted by this Chinese old man who was over sixty years old.
A video of a Turkish music teacher commenting on "Paradise" was translated into 38 Chinese subtitles and played more than 360,000 times.
At the same time, Tengger has a strong stage performance, extremely suitable for live, and the sound can withstand all kinds of tests, which is the treasure of the "Singer" stage.
Li Jian sighed after watching the Tengger singer:
This belongs to the seal and certification of industry insiders.
Third place: Tan Jing
Tan Jing, the big devil of the national team, a talented soprano, Tan Jing's singing skills, are well-known at home and abroad, and there is almost no need to prove it.
12 times on the Spring Festival Gala, 6 times for the Olympics singing, she created her own "Tan Jing style singing", and even turned 2006 into "Tan Jing Year".
Because this year, Tan Jing not only sang the theme song of CCTV's three opening masterpieces at the beginning of the year, but also successfully held a solo concert of Harmonious Voices in Vienna's Golden Hall, which is world-renowned.
Therefore, when it comes to singing skills, Tan Jing must be talked about, which is an unspoken rule in the industry.
recorded 11 episodes of "The Masked Singer", and no one guessed Tan Jing's identity, which made Tan Jing sit on the title of "Great Demon King".
In terms of technique and stage performance, Tan Jing has almost no shortcomings, and can compete with any foreign player.
Second place: Han Hong
For "Singer", Han Hong is a female singer who has to be mentioned.
Aside from Han Hong's social career, in terms of singing, few professional singers in China can leave her behind.
Singing genius is the threshold to compete with her.
Han Hong's strength lies in the fact that she is the only singer who came from a serious academy but can surpass the vast majority of professional singers in the field of pop music.
Tan Jing, Huang Qishan, Yao Beina, and Faye Wong are all considered inferior to Han Hong.
Because their singing style has its own shortcomings, Han Hong is a hexagonal warrior.
Han Hong has the best timbre in the popular singing world, simple, real and bright, and she wants to donate as soon as she hears it.
She also has a clear recognition, and as soon as the audience listens to it, they can know that it is Han Hong's voice and Han Hong's emotions.
What's more, after achieving so many results, Han Hong has been learning, she has been learning from various singing methods, using singing skills and skills to improve her singing methods.
A singer who is excellent in itself and keeps learning is the most terrifying.
In addition, in terms of stage performance, Han Hong is also the only female singer.
Han Hong can exude all kinds of charm, sometimes cheerful, sometimes excited, sometimes sad, sometimes moving.
She will use her singing voice to arouse people's emotions and know how to use singing to tug at the heartstrings of the audience.
This is a quality that many technical singers do not have, but it is also one of the most valuable qualities of stage performance.
Han Hong has been on "Singer", and she herself has asked to fight to compete with two foreign demon kings.
Maybe this year, I can really see Han Hong going out of the mountains to help Yingzi fight against foreigners.
First place: Liu Huan
This first place, after thinking about it for a long time, seems to be able to only give it to Liu Huan.
The home of the Beijing Olympics is recognized by the state.
This is not Liu Huan's highest achievement, but the vast majority of Chinese singers will not be able to achieve it in a lifetime.
Liu Huan is a top singer, his voice is high-pitched and mellow, he is free, his musical literacy is extremely high, and his singing skills are unfathomable.
He sings with an open cavity, a wide vocal tract, and a very stable pitch, even if it is placed in the nest of tens of thousands of people, he can make a natural sound.
Of course, this is not Liu Huan's most powerful place.
For the audience, Liu Huan's most powerful thing is that his singing skills are not only limited to the technical level, but can already completely control a variety of different styles of songs and integrate various singing methods.
Whether it is bel canto or ethnic, whether it is pop or rock, or even opera, he can adopt it as he likes, accumulate it steadily, and reflect it in his works.
This also makes Liu Huan's singing style extremely unique, which is difficult for others to imitate.
Some singers are already very powerful when they reach the top level in a certain singing style, and Liu Huan's singing skills are almost the top in all aspects, which is commendable.
For us, Liu Huan's singing skills, stage and music performance, there is almost no need to question, as long as Liu Huan appears, no one will ever question his "sound repair" or "fake singing".
Because it's not necessary at all.
Having said so much, the choice of the "anti-foreign" powerful singer, Brother Pi will talk about this first.
Regarding the amount of public opinion caused by "Singer 2024", Brother Pi actually has some things to say and wants to talk to you about.
After listening to the singing of Shanti Mo and Fan Xia, and watching their performance on stage, everyone realized that they were all singers in the Chinese music scene who were "hanged".
Rainie Yang's treble can't go up, Wang Sulong is nervous, although the second-hand rose is relaxed, but the skills are average, only Na Ying can match, but the strength is still slightly inferior.
Aside from the reasons for singing and technique, the biggest problem with our singer in the role of Brother Pi is actually in two aspects.
The first is the attitude towards music.
When Fansia sings "Crazy", it is clear that she is not competing in a competition, but enjoying the music.
She was in a very relaxed state, as if everything that followed was spontaneous, and the lyrics were in her mouth, like telling an old friend about a few interesting things that had happened.
She is sometimes surprised, sometimes funny, sometimes soaring high-pitched, and also finds time to interact with the audience.
It feels like you're playing.
This is also the reason why in the European and American music circles, everyone calls making music "playing music".
Music seems to be a kind of enjoyment for her, and she enjoys showing her voice, talent, songs, singing and dancing, which gives her a higher level of stage.
And our singers, although there are no problems with singing, voice, and treble, they are all very powerful, but they just feel that they are performing, making rolls, engaging in competitions, and showing off their skills.
One is relaxed and lively, and the other is rigid and rigid.
This creates a difference in the stage and gives the audience a completely different look and feel.
The second is vitality.
Song is first and foremost a form of artistic expression, and the most precious thing in art is not academic techniques, but vitality.
Brother Pi understands that the vitality of a song can be the singer's own emotion, or it can trigger another resonance with the audience in some way.
When Shanti Mo sings, it feels like telling a story that can excite him, as if he is sharing a joyful and exciting emotion.
She is full of emotion throughout the whole process, making eye contact with the audience and the camera all the time, occasionally indulging in it, and occasionally smiling and flirting.
This is a work of art, a performance artist's life show.
We listen to Han Hong's "It's Dawn", listen to Liu Huan's "Young Ambition is Not Sorrowful", and listen to Tengger's "Heaven", and what we feel is this kind of vitality.
Those popular songs that became popular, "Nanshannan" and "Chengdu", are all the same.
But in this competition, there are still too few songs with vitality, and there are too few performances with vitality.
Of course, Brother Pi hopes that the Chinese music scene will be better, but he hopes that our young singers can really like music, indulge in music, and sing and create with interest and emotion, instead of being an emotionless singing and dancing machine.
When this is realized, our Chinese music scene may be able to usher in real prosperity.
