Chapter 181: The Second Album
The third recorded song was "justonelastdance". The original singer of this song is Sarah Connor, a well-known German woman. Born in 1980 in a small town in Germany, she is said to have been influenced by her grandfather's Orleans ancestry at an early age. At the age of 14, she began to sing in the choir of the church, and then studied orthodox vocal training under the arrangement of her parents, trying to become an opera actress, and also appeared in stage plays and musicals on the school stage. It seemed that Sarah Chona was about to embark on a classical path, but out of her love for pop songs, she finally chose to take a more accessible musical route. When she was in middle school, she participated in many musicals, and at the age of 15 or 16, she went on the road to fame, sending her own audition tapes to various major music companies, hoping to get the opportunity to enter the music world.
In the spring of 2001, Sarah Chona unleashed her lustful debut single "Let'sGetBackToTheBedBoy", which showed her wild personality, and the song dominated the German charts and entered the top 10 of the European charts, and grabbed the top 15 of the European pop singles charts. The release of the touching love song "FromSarahWithLove" has achieved more and more dazzling results, selling 750,000 copies in Germany alone, the song light yì won the top spot on the German chart, reached the top 5 of the European Music※ Media chart, and hit the red plate in Sweden and Austria. In March this year, Sarah Connor won the Echo Music Award for Best Female Pop Rock Singer at the Echo Music Awards, and later won the GoldeneEurope Music Award for Most Successful Female Singer.
Sarah Kona, who is only 22 years old this year, has conquered the European music scene with her sweet voice, soul-penetrating music, and sweet, energetic rhythm and blues singing ability, and has become one of the world's leading rhythm and blues singers.
However, even if she is now popular in Europe, there are not many people in China who know her. According to history, it was at least three or four years later that people in China really got to know her because of her song "Justonelastdance". Of course, at this time, her popular song had not yet come out. Chen Feng naturally created it in advance, in addition to this song, Chen Feng himself also likes her other two songs "Livingtoloveyou" and "chri stmasinmyheart", these two songs feel very fresh, in her pure voice interpretation, naturally there is a kind of power that penetrates into the hearts of the people. However, for these two songs that have not yet been released, Chen Feng has no plans to create them in advance for the time being.
The song "Justonelastdance" is the theme song of the German film "The Last Dance", which tells a poignant story about the male protagonist who is terminally ill. Before dying, he returned to the dance floor where he and his beloved first met, and died in his girlfriend's arms after dancing the last dance. The film will not be released until next year, 2003.
The theme of the song is to express the pain and helplessness of a pair of lovers who are about to break up, the first part of the song is like the slightest whisper of lovers, gentle and romantic, with a memory as the beginning, with a kind of romance like an exotic relationship, the middle part is more long, and the latter part is more intense, so that it is even hoarse, about to hysteria, giving people a feeling of soul-wandering.
Chen Feng attaches great importance to the recording of this song, and in his original plan, this song was the title track of this album, so he naturally used his heart. Moreover, in Chen Feng's heart, this song is really a classic among the classics, when he heard this song for the first time on the Internet, he was immediately deeply shocked, and listened to it more than a dozen times in a row, although he was in love with his college girlfriend at that time, he was still deeply moved by this "lovelorn" song, and after listening to it, the sadness in his heart quietly spread.
In the control zhì room and music production zuò people. and his staff, discussed in detail, and finally finalized the arrangement, and carefully instructed the harmony singer in detail about his own requirements, and then entered the recording studio and officially began to record the song.

The original singer of this song, Sarah Chona, has an ethereal and sweet voice, which is comparable to that of the American diva Maria Carey, and Chen Feng reinterprets this classic track with a male voice, and the effect is also very good, which can be seen from the expressions of everyone in the control room.
Several of them had red eyes, and two of them couldn't even suppress their feelings and began to sob. Needless to say, this song must have evoked their sadness, and the two may have just fallen out of love. Of course, the melody of this song is very beautiful and the lyrics are also very touching, but Chen Feng's unique clear and thorough voice also contributes to the control of this song. Moreover, Yang Tianming had already said last time that Chen Feng was born with the life of the Nine Dragons to protect the body, and his whole body was entangled with purple qi, and his aura was naturally very powerful, and his every move had a very strong influence on ordinary people, and it could even be said that it was charming, which naturally included his singing. That is to say, even if Chen Feng's singing skills are very ordinary, the songs he sings are also ordinary, and even if his appearance is also very ordinary, but because of his life and aura, he can be appreciated by many people very lightly. It's like many people like a certain celebrity very much, but many people hate him or her. It's a natural feeling of human beings, and I can't explain it. But according to Yang Tianming, a feng shui master, whether a person likes others or not depends mainly on his innate personality and aura. Of course, everyone's life and aura are not perfect, which makes some people hate you by nature, and some people are born with you, of course, people can also change their life and aura through acquired efforts, however, such examples are rare, and there is no one in ten thousand. However, Chen Feng is a very special type of this, he himself has a Nine Dragons body, and his life is indescribably precious, and secondly, his aura is super powerful, and his whole body is entangled with purple qi, which greatly makes up for its own shortcomings, making his life and aura almost perfect.
So, some people are born easily to please others, but some people are not. And Chen Feng is the most special person who belongs to the former part of the people, and his innate super aura and affinity. makes him an alternative among the other, which also explains why he was able to become famous at such a young age and achieve such a wide influence in the world, part of the reason is of course that Chen Feng himself is very good, after becoming a long, his singing skills and songs are impeccable, especially his "creative talent" It is recognized as a genius by the whole world, and the other part of the reason is because of Chen Feng's special aura and personality, it is easy to achieve success and huge influence, and when the two are multiplied, the result is naturally superimposed. The final achievement exceeded the expectations of everyone including Chen Feng himself, so much so that when he encountered injustice in the United States, he caused a global fan march and even a riot in Los Angeles. This point could not be done by other emperor superstars, but Chen Feng did it.
This "long phenomenon" has spread around the world, so much so that many people who are not originally fans of Long have begun to claim that they are fans of Long, including public figures and political leaders in many countries, and some time ago even Japanese Prime Minister Foolish Wolf Dog declared in an informal setting that he himself is a fan of Long, and said that he likes Long's song "FarfromHomeaway" the most The reason why he said this may be sincere, but his purpose must be to win over his large number of long fans in Japan, after all, the last million fan parade made him, the prime minister, anxious and at a loss. With the experience of Japan and the United States, many people, especially public figures, naturally dare not speak ill of Long. So far, long has almost become a symbol, a perfect compliment, it represents intelligence, handsomeness, kindness, bravery, responsibility, loyalty...... The psychology of the masses does not allow others to defile this word. For this reason, businessmen from many countries have preemptively registered the "long" trademark and domain name...... All have been canceled and banned, which was naturally contributed to the strong protest of many long fans.
To get back to the point, after Chen Feng sang the song "Justonelastdance", everyone at the scene was moved, and some even shed tears. With such an effect, it was naturally a one-time pass, and it was not in vain that Chen Feng had fully communicated with these people before. It took almost an hour before and after.
Chen Feng walked out of the recording studio again, and after entering the control room, everyone present applauded and cheered Chen Feng with the posture of welcoming the hero.
General manager Richard Hawking was even more excited to give Chen Feng a warm hug, and said loudly: "Long, this song of yours is really heavenly, it is so shocking, especially the climax at the end, people can't help but feel a feeling of tears when they listen to it." Earlier, I heard from my colleagues in the United States. When you recorded your first album in the United States, you were moved to tears, and I didn't believe it at the time, but now I can see with my own eyes, and you just moved two of my subordinates to tears. I almost cried myself. Hehe, long, you are really unique, you have become the greatest singer of all time. ”
The rest of the people saw Richard Hawking taking the lead in hugging Chen Feng, and they all came forward to hug Chen Feng to express their appreciation and congratulations. This is nothing to hug each other in the American tradition, but Chen Feng is Chinese after all, and after finally enduring the hugs of the leading few people, he immediately walked over to the maker Avery Lauder and said: "Lauder, time is limited, let's start the discussion of the fourth song right away." ”
Avery Lauder is a Hispanic in his forties, a somewhat well-known country singer more than a decade ago, and later specialized in behind-the-scenes production, making some name for himself in the industry. Chen Feng knew from his previous communication with him that his musical skills and production level were still very high, and he was a very rigorous person, so many people were moved by Chen Feng's song just now, and they were very excited, and although he was also very moved, he was not as emotional as these people, but more just appreciated and focused, which made Chen Feng feel a little good.
"Okay, which one are you going to record next?" replied Avery Lauder very dryly.
“《WhenYouTellMeThatYouLoveMe》。 Chen Feng also gave a very simple answer, and then said, "I originally planned to reinterpret this song as a love song duet, but until now, I haven't figured out who is the most suitable person to sing with me, so now I simply change it to a solo version." ”
The original singer of this song is Diana Ross, a black American female singer, who is a very famous female singer in the sixties and seventies in the United States.
In 1972, she was voted Best Female Singer. In 1974, she was also praised as the best female singer. She was also the first black actress to be nominated for an Academy Award. In 1982, with the help of Nair Rose, Diana recorded the album "Diana", which was the biggest success of her life. So far, Diana Ross has a total of 18 number one singles, making her the most number one song for a female singer.
It is worth mentioning that she has a very deep personal relationship with Michael Jackson, and even in Michael Jackson's will, she is the second guardian of his children, and the first guardian is his mother. It can be seen that the relationship between the two is very deep.
Released in 1991 as her solo version, "WhenYouTellMeThatYouLoveMe" reached number 37 in the United States, it reached number two in the United Kingdom. Many people have covered the song over the years, including Julio and Coco Lee, and later the West Side Boys. Chen Feng had heard the version of the West Side boy and the veteran black female singer Diana Ross in his previous life, which felt very good, and Chen Feng's original plan was to change the song to a duet version in advance, and the female singer chose Coco Li, after all, everyone is Chinese, and after he communicated with Coco Li, he had a very good impression of her, but unfortunately he and she actually had an undeserved scandal, so he naturally canceled the plan to continue to cooperate with her, with the authorization, it was a little bad to go back on his word, so I continued with the original plan and recorded this old song.
This song has a certain popularity in the world, and Avery, as a music producer, naturally knows it, and nodded in agreement without saying much.
However, the speaker did not intend to listen to the intention, Richard Hawking heard this, and was very interested in interjecting: "Long, our company is currently planning to launch a new person, stage name Sarah, Chinese name Xie Manli, her mother is Hong Kong, her father is British, Chinese-British mixed-race, her appearance and voice are very good, our Jupiter Hong Kong branch has recruited the most potential singer since its establishment, if you don't mind, I can arrange for her to audition tomorrow." ”
The meaning of Richard's words, of course, is that he wants to use the light of Chen Feng, a superstar, to make this Sarah popular all of a sudden. This is completely conceivable, as long as Chen Feng collaborates with her on this love song, it will be difficult for her to become popular.
Chen Feng was stunned for a moment before he said: "Time is pressing, I think it's better to cooperate with her next time I have the opportunity." ”
Richard Hawking didn't have much hope, and although he was a little disappointed when he heard this, he didn't say much.
Chen Feng didn't talk nonsense anymore, and directly discussed this song with Avery, as well as the mixer, recording engineer and other staff, this is an old song, if you want to re-cover it, of course, you have to be innovative.
Half an hour later, after determining the rearranged part, Chen Feng immediately entered the recording studio and began the recording of the song.
The recording is very smooth, and this song has been reinterpreted by Chen Feng, giving people a new feeling, almost completely different from the original version of Diana Rose, but still very beautiful and touching.
After the song ended, Chen Feng recorded the fifth song "AnyoneOfUs" without stopping.
The song's original singer, Gareth Paul Gates, a boy who once suffered from stuttering but had an angelic voice, became the runner-up singer in the audience runoff for the popular British TV talent show PopIdol on February 9, 2002, and has been an instant hit ever since.
At the age of 18, he re-sang the classic song "UnchainedMelody" by the Justice Brothers Choir with his over-age skill, and rewrote the Guinness World Records history as the second youngest champion single singer on the British Gold Chart, the first is of course Long, his song "All Daylight" was released that year, it was on the British Gold Chart in the first week, and has maintained the championship record for nearly 30 weeks. This year, this newly debuted teenage singer, many people call him "British Long", and he himself is proud of this title, and has publicly stated on many occasions that Long is his most admired idol and senior, and will take Long as an example and strive to demand himself. Perhaps because of the title of "Britain's long", he was soon selected by Pepsi as the advertising ambassador in the UK.
This is completely understandable for Pepsi to behave like this, because since Long filmed a TV commercial for them last summer and officially became the spokesperson of Pepsi, Pepsi's global sales have increased month by month, and sales records have been repeatedly brushed up, until May this year, global sales have been on par with Coca-Cola, the largest competitor, and the market share has been gradually eroded. Especially in their home camp in the United States, Pepsi has become the first choice for carbonated drinks for American teenagers and even the most consuming middle-aged class because of the endorsement of Long, drinking Pepsi has become synonymous with fashion, and drinking Coca-Cola has virtually become an old-fashioned behavior, this kind of collective behavior has existed in the past, but now it is further expanded, because of this, Pepsi's market share in the United States base camp has exceeded Coca-Cola by five percentage points, and Coca-Cola's senior management on the one hand was annoyed that last year failed to try their best to win Long to endorse their companyOn the one hand, a series of measures have been launched in response to this phenomenon, inviting the most popular idol group "Super Boy" and Avril Lavril as their company spokespersons, trying to compete with Long and Britney Spears, but the result is completely unsatisfactory, and the market share is still shrinking, and Coca-Cola is completely helpless.
Chen Feng naturally didn't know about this matter, since he filmed a few endorsement advertisements and took the money, he basically didn't ask.
Chen Feng also didn't know that this Gregues was his loyal fan, and if he knew, he might find out in his conscience and not create this masterpiece of his fans in advance.
The overall melody of the song is relatively simple and catchy, and there are no difficulties in the arrangement. After Chen Feng briefly exchanged views with Avery and others, he went into the studio to record the song.
“AnyoneOfUs

There are times when anyone falls, and it is possible for anyone to accidentally hurt a loved one
HeartswillbreakCau color Imadeastupidmistake
My heart was going to break - I made a stupid mistake
…………”
It's a song that is explained to your girlfriend. Looking at the whole song, it can be seen that the boy can't resist the temptation and has an intimate act with another girl, and is seen by his girlfriend...... So the boy woke up and explained to his girlfriend that he didn't love her the most, but you! This song is a song that is suitable for radio on-demand and apologizing to couples.
This song has such a connotation, Chen Feng originally didn't plan to use it, but the melody of this song is really beautiful, and it is also very suitable for his own voice, and singing is rare and not very high. So, after thinking about it, I finally decided to use it.
This song actually doesn't have much connotation, it's just a beautiful melody, and after Chen Feng finished recording, he immediately carried out the next public welfare song "tellmewhy" that he explained to others.
The original singer of this song is Dikran Galbraith, born in 1991, only 10 years old this year, he began to show his singing talent at the age of 4, and at the age of 8, he began to participate in some music competitions, and won 16 awards in 14 months. At the same time, he also won the appreciation of the lyricist Barry Mason (who wrote LastWaltz - the author of the Last Waltz) and has been out of control ever since.
It is believed that the boy's musical talent and understanding and love of traditional Irish music came from his grandfather, Ben. It's only been about 6 weeks, and Ben is taking care of him. Ben often played the six-hole flute and Irish drums in the pub and often took him with him, and Declan Galbraith grew up with him. After his grandfather's death in 1996, he inherited his grandfather's singing career. His first album, Declan, was dedicated to his grandfather. Declan Galbraith's voice is clear and refined, and he sings a wide range of songs. He has a good grasp of everything from the popular "Angels" to traditional Irish songs like "Cary Day ckfergus". And the wish of this little child star is that one day he can no longer cover other people's songs and have a few songs of his own.
This "tellmewhy" is his own song. This song has caused a lot of repercussions around the world since it came out with his natural voice. In its original history, the song was published on December 9, 2002, 10 days before Declan Galbraith's 11th birthday, and it was also Declan Galbraith's first song. It was also on this day that all the parties in Britain and Ireland and Declan Galbraith sang the song at the same time, and it won the Guinness Book of World Records, the largest choir in history. With a large choir, he paid tribute to many phenomena in the world: why can people turn a blind eye to many people in need? What does he have to do to become a man? Does he have to fight hard to prove what kind of person he is? Does his life have to be wasted in a world full of war? Who can sue him, why? I have to admit that such content is indeed "overage" for a ten-year-old boy , but it cannot be denied that his singing skills are indeed impeccable, which makes people have to think deeply and reflect after listening to it. Finally, he ended with a recomposed "Twinkle, TwinkleLittleStar", which is very memorable.
The lyrics of this song are relatively concise, but the melody is very poetic, especially the high-pitched part, which has the feeling of singing a hymn.
After Avery and several people read the song sheet of "TellMeWhy", Chen Feng, who was very appreciative, nodded again and again.
Soon, at the request and leadership of Chen Feng, the arrangement almost completely copied the arrangement in Chen Feng's memory. After listening to the audition, Chen Feng entered the recording studio again and began the recording of this song.
“inmydream,

And does this mean that my whole life will be spent in this world full of gunpowder?
…………”
The high-pitched part of this song was not handled perfectly by Chen Feng for the first time, and then after two consecutive times, it was considered to be smooth lì tong guò, and he met the requirements set by himself, and he couldn't sing worse than a ten-year-old boy.
After the successful recording of "TellMeWhy", it was only natural that it won a full house again. Especially because it has not been long since the terrorist attack of "12.9" in the United States last year, and the meaning of this song is a song advocating peace, which is naturally very meaningful. At least that's what these Americans think.
After Chen Feng finally listened to the praise of these people, he immediately got to the point: "Then next, let's continue to record another of my public welfare songs." ”
"Is this the Becau-coloured song?" asked Avery Lauder, insightfully.
Chen Feng nodded and explained: "This song writes about a woman's process from complaining to struggling and then to sobriety. When she was a child, she was a victim of a bad relationship between her parents, so when she was in the same situation, looking at her daughter's tearful eyes, she woke up and resolutely walked out of the cycle of tragedy. This song is not only an expression of emotion, but also a kind of voice, which has a certain social significance, and is a song that opposes domestic violence and advocates the protection of the physical and mental health of minors. ”
"I read the lyrics and tune of this song, it's really great, and it fits your voice requirements, and I believe that after you performed this song, it will have a certain positive impact around the world. Avery Lauder said sternly.
"So what are we waiting for? After Chen Feng finished speaking, he took the score and discussed with several staff members on arrangement, mixing, harmony and other aspects.
The original singer of "Becau" is Kelly Clarkson, a Grammy-winning American pop singer. This year, Kelly participated in the competition for the first season of the American reality show "American Idol", and with her solid singing skills and steady performance, she was voted the champion of the competition by the national television audience, becoming an American idol of the new generation.
