The Spring Festival Gala has come to an end for six days, but the society is still hotly discussed.
This year, the audience was surprised to see Liu Qian on the stage again, and Li Guyi's position also ushered in a new face.
Unforgettable Tonight presented a different format from previous years in this year's performance, with more than 10 singers taking turns to perform, but Wong Yee Shan became the target of public criticism.
What's going on? Let me go through them one by one.
As we all know, the Spring Festival Gala, as an annual highlight, has been held for many years, and "Unforgettable Tonight" has always been one of the classic programs.
There are three main reasons for this preserved tradition:
First of all, the lyrics of "Unforgettable Tonight" have a far-reaching artistic conception, which brings a climax to the whole party just right, which meets the needs of a large-scale party.
Secondly, for more than 60 years, "Unforgettable Tonight" has been deeply imprinted in the hearts of the audience and has become an indispensable part of the Spring Festival Gala.
In the end, the affectionate feelings expressed in "Unforgettable Tonight" made ** forget to return and reluctantly, and Mr. Li Guyi interpreted this emotion to the fullest.
However, this year's "Unforgettable Tonight" presents an unusual change, with a brisk and lively rhythm, and even incorporating rap elements.
In particular, Huang Qishan's performance caused a wave of boos from netizens.
Before the song started, Huang Qishan couldn't suppress the excitement in her heart, twisted her body to the rhythm of **, and shook her head.
In the whole four-minute song, Huang Qishan's solo part is very limited, just the eight words "unforgettable tonight, unforgettable tonight", but it is crucial.
Huang Qishan's singing skills are undoubted, but her performance has not been recognized by netizens.
Her performance was criticized for being a bit exaggerated when she sang, opening her mouth too wide and swaying her body to a striking extent. Netizens have used "grinning teeth and shaking heads" to describe her performance. Doubts about Huang Qishan continue to emerge, especially in the ** comments of "Unforgettable Tonight 2024 Edition", the number of "God comments" about her is the largest, and there are also some pertinent views.
Someone pointed out: "We don't doubt her singing skills, but the unforgettable tonight song needs a solemn interpretation, not a head-shake." People are puzzled why Huang Qishan keeps shaking when singing, especially in a solemn program like the Spring Festival Gala. There is also a comment that pointed out: "Mr. Li Guyi's unforgettable tonight gives people the feeling of national peace and security, while Mr. Huang's singing makes people feel like Shanghai at night." ”
The complaints of netizens have attracted widespread attention, however, there have been signs of this situation as early as two years ago. Nigmat once predicted that two years ago, the Spring Festival Gala tried to change the way it ended, but the audience's reaction was too intense, and even the audience couldn't feel the flavor of the New Year. Sa Beining said that "Unforgettable Tonight" is not only a song, but also a sense of ritual. He also pointed out that this song is not suitable for other people's interpretation, and only Mr. Li Guyi can interpret it perfectly.
Although modest, Li Guyi also agrees with Sa Beining's opinion, and she insists that no one can sing this song better than her, and previous attempts have proved this.
Teacher Li Guyi said some words next, so that I fully understood why this song needed to be sung by her. She emphasized that "Unforgettable Tonight" actually represents the essence of the Spring Festival Gala, and its core is to stop after celebration, give people time to think deeply, review what happened in the past year, including good and bad, and then think about future plans. Therefore, this song is of great significance.
Sa Beining also agreed with Mr. Li Guyi's view, adding: "Especially at the end of the year and the beginning of the year, people let go of the fatigue of the year and usher in the new year, which is a transition period. And the lyrics and melody of "Unforgettable Tonight" express exactly this feeling of transition, making you feel that it is difficult to surpass. ”
Sa Beining's last sentence actually emphasizes the full play of the role of "Unforgettable Tonight", emphasizing the importance of the coordination of lyrics and melody.
Some believe that the success of the 2024 version of Unforgettable Tonight is due to the fact that viewers suddenly find it different from what they used to be, feeling strange and uncomfortable.
Huang Qishan's performance on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala is not deliberately exaggerated, just like her performance when she sang "Good Luck Come" when she was young.
Even in the process of singing playful songs and pretending to be cute, she may show a hideous expression, perhaps this is the "sequelae" brought about by long-term singing of bitter songs.
Someone once suggested that Wong get her buckteeth repaired, but she responded, "Don't use your aesthetic standards to dictate my life." ”
