I am a singer 2 Why did Gai's Orchid lose?

On March 22nd, 2020, iQiyi officially announced the full lineup of its upcoming self-made Chinese singer ecological challenge program "I am a singer 2", including LAY, Zheng Jun, Chen Li, GAI GAI, Henry, Lao Fan next door, Ma Di and Liu Sijian. They will take part in the music competition as the first singers of this year's program. Ray and GAI have dueled twice since they started broadcasting. For the first time, Ray's clown lost to GAI's Firehorse with 365,438+0 votes. However, the second reunion, this time GAI's "Orchid Flower" lost to Ray's "House of Flying Daggers", which made people feel incredible. But it's normal in my eyes. Let me explain why you say that.

First of all, the original song Orchid is too old. I believe many people are catchy about this song, because it is a song I often listened to when I was a child, even a small melody in a common toy before. What old song do you say this is? Therefore, it is really a big span for such a song that impressed the audience in China to be adapted into rap, especially for the audience who are used to the melody of the original song, they may feel that any adaptation will make the song sound abrupt and unfamiliar. If you change to an audience who has never heard of this song, maybe he has a little chance of winning, because his adaptation is ok, and he still retains the main theme of the original song, and the way of rap has a certain freshness.

The second is that there is no original agility of orchids. Orchid is a classic old song of Timi Zhuo, but what you didn't expect was that the original lyricist of this song was a famous figure in modern history? The word Hu Shi comes from a poem entitled Hope written by Hu Shi. That summer he went to Xishan, and his friends Xiong Bingsan and his wife gave him a pot of orchids. He happily took them home, took good care of them after reading and writing, and didn't bloom until autumn, so he wrote this little poem to give orchids a lively atmosphere and express his expectation for life. It was later adapted into a song. Anyone who has heard the original song knows that the rhythm of this song is somewhat cheerful. But now, after GAI's adaptation, although the main theme of the song is still preserved, with the addition of rap, the original agility of the orchid finger has disappeared, covered by rap and lost its original flavor. As for the part where the lyrics are re-written, although the lyrics are well written, they have not reached a particularly amazing level, so it is not surprising that LAY lost its house of flying daggers, because in comparison, LAY is really well adapted and the stage effect is even more shocking.

Generally speaking, GAI is a little bold in choosing orchids as the music track of the competition. After all, it takes a lot of courage to adapt classic songs, but GAI said "Orchid Flower" is the most authentic song he wrote in the past two years. He didn't refuse to accept LAY, but simply thought his song was very good. However, a talented person will not lack his own bole. I hope his songs will get better and better in the future.
