On the stage of "Singer" in 2024, the band Secondhand Rose brought a performance like no other. Their appearance is not only eye-catching, but also has sparked countless controversies and discussions. Why would a band known for its offbeat appearance appear in such a high-level vocal competition? Is their performance really fit to stand on such a stage? Is there a story behind this? Let's unveil the mystery of "Singer 2024" together and see what is going on!
When thinking of the stage of "Singer", the first thing that comes to everyone's mind must be those singers with outstanding singing skills, who conquer the audience with their exquisite skills and win applause. The 2024 edition of "The Singer" welcomed a special guest, the Second Hand Roses, who shook everyone up in a way they had never done before.
Second-Hand Rose, a band known for their alternative style, their music is full of experimentation and expressiveness, completely different from traditional vocal music. Their lead singer, Liang Long, is even more famous for his unique stage presence. But this time, when they stood on the stage of "Singer", it attracted a lot of doubts and controversy.
The cause of the incident was a sudden invitation from the director. It is said that when the production team was preparing for the 2024 show, they wanted to bring some fresh elements and break the convention, so they thought of second-hand roses. They believe that the band will be able to bring a new audience and market to the show. This decision clearly did not take into account the huge difference between them and the high vocal standards that the show has always had.
On the night of the live broadcast, Liang Long's performance can be said to amaze the audience, but this amazement is not out of appreciation for his singing skills, but a shock at their performance style. Their performances were filled with shouts and unconventional vocal performances, which made the audience of "The Singer", who has always been at the heart of the competition with vocal skills, feel very uncomfortable.
Among them, the comments of Rozette, a Canadian vocal music teacher, are particularly poignant. She was very surprised by the performance of the second-hand roses, and bluntly said that this form of expression is far from the traditional vocal singing. After watching Diplodocus' performance, she even openly questioned: "Is this serious?" Is this still singing? This straightforward evaluation undoubtedly brought great pressure to the program team and second-hand roses.
What's even more surprising is that after the performance of Diplodocus, despite the mixed reactions, all the backstage contestants stood up collectively, as if to express their respect or recognition of this bold attempt in this way. This scene makes people wonder if this performance of Second-Hand Rose really has nothing to do with vocal music, as Rozette said? Or did they challenge the traditional definition of "The Singer" in a whole new way, breathing new life into the show?
The response to the performance was overwhelming. Many viewers expressed their opinions on social media, and some believed that the performance of Second-Hand Rose was an innovative attempt that should be encouraged and supported; Some people think that this kind of performance runs counter to the spirit of "Singer", and that the program team should be more cautious in the selection of contestants.
In this regard, an insider in the program group revealed that they invited second-hand roses to participate in the competition in the hope of bringing more topics and attention through this kind of "atypical" contestants. In fact, the show's ratings and network hits did increase significantly in the episode where Secondhand Rose competed. This also gave the program team more confidence in this kind of "experiment".
But problems also arise. A veteran music critic commented after the show: "The entry of second-hand roses has indeed made the show more interesting, but it is still unknown whether this attempt to deviate from tradition will be accepted by a wide audience." After all, the diversity of music is important, but each stage has its own positioning and core values. ”
The controversy didn't stop with the end of the show. On the contrary, as time went by, more viewers began to join the discussion, and some supported the innovative attempts of the program group, believing that music has no boundaries and should be inclusive of diversity; Others insist that "The Singer" should adhere to its professional and high-standard vocal competition positioning.
In this discussion, the members of Secondhand Rose also expressed their opinions. Liang Long said in an interview: "We are very grateful to "Singer" for giving us this platform to let more people see our music. We know that our style may not be mainstream, but we believe in the power of music and that it touches everyone's heart. ”
His words are not only an insistence on his own musical style, but also an affirmation of musical diversity. The participation of Secondhand Rose has undoubtedly brought unprecedented challenges and opportunities to "Singer", and has also made more people start to think about the diversity of music and performance.
The performance of Second-Hand Rose in "Singer 2024" has sparked extensive discussion and thinking. Their participation is not just a musical performance, but also a bold challenge to the traditional music competition model. This challenge allows us to see the diversity and infinite possibilities of music. Perhaps, the future music stage will become richer and more exciting because of such an "alternative".
