Chapter 169 Charming Stage, Charming Man
In his previous life, Kim Jong Kook released many good songs in both the Turbo group period and the solo personal period. He asked others to say their favorite songs, which are generally considered to be the most popular songs such as "A Man", "Lovely", and "Stand in Place", but Kim Jong Sung was not like this.
Personally, all the songs Kim Jong Kook ranked first in Kim Jong-sung’s mind were "A certain Jazz Bar", and the second to fourth were "Letter", "Black Cat" and "Always".
Among them, "A certain jazz bar", "Black Cat" and "Always" are all songs from Kim Jong Kook during the Turbo group period. Perhaps many people are not familiar with the song "Always". This song was once covered by Chinese singers Huang Pinyuan and Mo Wenwei into a duet of love song "So Love You Why".
Originally, Kim Jong Kook also had a song called "Unforgettable", which could rank fifth in Kim Jong-sung's mind. However, this song is suspected of plagiarizing the "Love-In-This-Club" by American singer Usher. Kim Jong-sung had compared these two songs many times in his previous life and confirmed that it was plagiarism. Some of the rhythms and melodies are extremely similar, and the overall melodies are almost the same.
This cannot be blamed for Kim Jong Kook himself, but Kim Do-hoon, the composer of this song, was a thug. Kim Do-hoon was eager for quick success and instant benefits for money and reputation, and almost harmed Kim Jong Kook.
Or the pressure of competition is too high and the influence of a bad social atmosphere, some Korean composers are eager for quick success and instant benefits, and like to play plagiarism behind their backs. They think they are unaware of it, but they are often smart but are mistaken for cleverness.
What impressed Kim Jingsung the most was Lee Hyo-ri's 4th album "H-Logic" released in 2010. If we only look at the concept and song quality of the album, this album is Kim Jingsung personally considered Lee Hyo-ri's best album. The audible number of songs in it is no less than that of the sensational Asian "10-Minutes".
However, what's bad is that several songs in this album seriously involved plagiarism. In order to get to know Lee Hyo-ri, the composer did not hesitate to give it a try in this way. As a result, Lee Hyo-ri's reputation was seriously damaged. Not only did Lee Hyo-ri be criticized and abused by many parties, he even dared to release 5 volumes after three years of silence, and his economic losses were immeasurable.
Take Kim Do-hoon for example. He was suspected of plagiarism scandals long before he plagiarized the creation of "Unforgettable". He was suspected of plagiarism scandals, including Lee Hyo-ri's "Get-Ya", Lee Seung-ki's "Let's Break Up", G**Y-NJ's "LIE", SG-Wanna-Be's "Crime and Punishment", C.N-Blue's "Lonely Man", etc., all of which were suspected of plagiarism.
After Kim Jong Kook's "Unforgettable" was exposed to plagiarism, Korean fans were very angry. Thousands of fans organized signature activities to withdraw Kim Do-hoon from the music scene online, which caused Kim Do-hoon's music career to be greatly affected.
"Now Usher's "Love-In-This-Club" has not been released yet, and it will not be released in 2008. If I write it out in advance and hand it over to Professor Wilson to release a single, and then adapt it into the Korean version of "Can't Forgot" for Kim Jong Kook, wouldn't it be fine?"
Jin Jingcheng had already thought of this in his mind in advance.
...
"What I want to sing for everyone is not my own song, but my brother's song. My brother's name is Kim Jong Kook, and this song is called "A certain Jazz Bar"!"
When Kim Jong-sung finished saying this, a burst of applause suddenly erupted at the scene. It was not very enthusiastic, but it was a little stronger than when Dongfang Shenqi came on stage. However, the applause was mostly not because of Kim Jong-hyun. On the one hand, it was because of Kim Dong-woo on the stage and Zhang Yingye’s applause from the stage. On the other hand, it was for Kim Jong-kook’s fame and this classic song.
Zhang Shilin did not applaud, but a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and her eyes showed expectation. She wanted to see how good Kim Dong-woo's singing skills were. Han Shiyin, who was standing beside her, looked at Kim Jingcheng with dissatisfaction, as if she had transferred her dissatisfaction with Kim Dong-woo to Kim Jingcheng.
Jin Jingcheng didn't say much, and immediately stopped all kinds of emotions that would interfere with the singing and devote himself to the singing state, which was also a matter of living up to the first stage this time.
Jin Jingcheng nodded to the lighting maker.
Suddenly, the lights in the entire bar dimmed, especially the stage, which suddenly sank into a darkness, as if it was a small black ocean.
A thick beam of light projected down from the roof above the stage, covering Jin Jingcheng, who was sitting on the high stool, suddenly making Jin Jingcheng seem to be someone whose body will shine.
A white mist erupted from the corner of the wall behind the stage. The white mist quickly spread throughout the stage, making Jin Jingcheng, who was shrouded in light in the center of the stage, seemed to be sitting in the clouds.
These white mists are formed by sublimation of dry ice (solid carbon dioxide) and quickly cool down, causing the water vapor in the air to condense into small droplets. When Jin Jingcheng was paying attention to the stage before, he observed that a dry ice smoke machine was installed behind the stage. This is a difference between professional audiences and amateur audiences watching the stage, and it also shows Jin Jingcheng's carefulness.
Jin Jingcheng specifically instructed the lighting engineer to use the dry ice smoke machine when he was singing. The lighting engineer saw Jin Jingcheng and Zhang Yingye on the same table, and Zhang Yingye was the one who personally went to bread tonight. He also saw that the protagonist Zhang Shilin to toast to Jin Jingcheng, so he did not dare to neglect Jin Jingcheng and completely followed Jin Jingcheng's request.
The black ocean, the lonely column of light, the glowing man, the white mist... At this moment, the effect on the stage was full of charm, and with Jin Jingcheng's natural sitting posture and devoted posture, Jin Jingcheng was even more charming. His shadow was gently suspended in the light and fog, looking wonderful and moving.
Jin Jingcheng nodded to the sound master again.
Immediately, the musical accompaniment of "A Certain Jazz Bar" sounded in the surround sound of the bar.
This song is accompanied by a live band, especially a jazz band, and the effect is the best. However, although there are jazz bands on site, they come from foreign countries. "A certain Jazz Bar" comes from Turbo's album "New-Sensation" released in 1996. It is an old song from South Korea eight years ago. Most of the live bands don't know how to play music accompaniment.
First, a small piece of string sounded, opening the prelude to the song.
Then suddenly a clear and elegant saxophone sound came, accompanied by some dynamic drum beats.
The saxophone ended, the drum beat continued, and then Jin Jingcheng's singing had already started:
"Although I know that the past time will not come back, I still have your memories like that. Although there is no healing the scars of pain, it is too difficult to live and erase it!"
