Jay Chou's new song "Christmas Star" made a big fool of himself this time, in order to build momentum for this new song, Jay Chou also made a lot of gimmicks before, and let everyone guess the name of the song, and let fans wait for the world premiere at 0:00 on December 22, as a result, the company had a major release accident, and the sound source was leaked in advance, at about 8 pm on the 21st, Jay Chou's "Christmas Star" MV has spread all over the Internet. As for the reason, I won't dwell too much on it here, but let's talk about this new song "Christmas Star".
"Christmas Star" is a single, and the main purpose of posting this song is to continue Jay Chou's rate and activity in the **market, and tell all fans that Jay Chou is still doing**. But after the release of the new song, netizens commented on this song the most, "ugly" and "Jiang Lang is exhausted", after listening to it three times, I feel that it is not too bad to say, it is too bland. "Christmas Star", like Jay Chou's other songs in recent years, has obvious traces of its predecessor, but it has lost the melody of its previous work.
Compare this "Christmas Star" with "Nocturne", which is also a winter theme, the prelude of "Nocturne" can capture the ears of the audience with a simple guitar, and the prelude of "Christmas Star" is perfunctory, pop** and short**, the first few seconds are not attractive, and it may be swept away all at once.
The melody of the main song of "Christmas Star" is in A major, "22222 22223, 2222 2151 2223", if you remove any of the very short bass 5, the ups and downs do not exceed three degrees, so it will sound very flat. Some netizens said that this song sounds like a saliva song, that is because the last word of all the lyrics and sentences has fallen to 3, which is like writing a poem, although the last word has to rhyme, but you can't be the same for every word. In this way, the audience will have auditory fatigue, and after listening to it a few times, it will have a feeling of saliva singing.
As for Jay Chou's singing, you can feel from this year's concert that his voice is not as good as before, although the new song can be repaired in the studio, but it is understandable that his voice has changed when he is older. As for the MV of "Christmas Star", it seems that after Jay Chou and Kunling got married, he basically walked on the street and sang alone in the MV of his new song, and there was no heroine, let alone a story form, it should be that the company did not have a good copywriting plan.
can only say that this song "Christmas Star" really loses its hair and can't find a bright spot, if you compare Eason Chan's "Christmas Knot", Fan Xiaoxuan's "Snowman", Xiao Yaxuan's "Miss Christmas" and other songs with the same theme, "Christmas Star" is really weak, if you remove the label of Jay Chou, this song will definitely sink into the sea and no one cares. Therefore, if you don't have inspiration to write songs, you can't write them, or like Li Zongsheng, who has used years of precipitation and accumulation to create a masterpiece "The Hills", there is no need to consume yourself for the market.
For Jay Chou, I believe that fans can accept no new songs in this life, what fans are afraid of is that Jay Chou has lost the original heart of the music scene that he loved ** recently, do you think it is reasonable?
