Chapter 343 Winter Single(2/2)
This was also communicated between SM and the crew of "Misheng" in advance. The crew had already prepared for his request for leave. It was also part of the plan to start filming his scenes so early in advance.
…………
"you shine like the stars."
"you light up my heart."
"At the end of today's trial, please illuminate me brightly."
In the music room, Jin Junmyun couldn't help but sing along while listening to the accompaniment. He closed his eyes and covered his ears with his hands, looking very immersed in it, as if he was performing on the stage.
Look at him, he really likes the song "Let It Be".
And should I say it, these falsetto lines sung by Kim Jun Mian are very touching and full of emotion, and they sound great.
His vocal ability is actually quite strong, and he is not much weaker than the four major vocalists in EXO. There should be no problem if he is placed as the lead singer of other lesser boy bands.
Several other members also stood nearby and listened attentively, silently singing along, nodding their heads from time to time, looking very engaged.
Today is already November 6th, and the nine members of EXO are gathered in the music room to audition and practice the song "Let It Be".
After staying up late and working overtime for several days, Ji Kyung-won finally finished the arrangement of "Let It Be". He quickly recorded a demo and gave it to Lee Soo-man. At the same time, he explained to him his thoughts on EXO's winter single.
Some of his suggestions, including even the shooting of the MV, he already had some ideas.
After listening to the demo, especially the lyrics, Lee Soo Man also understood what Ji Kyung Won wanted to express in this song. After listening to it several times, he also felt that the release of this song was very appropriate in EXO's current situation.
Whether it's the melody or the lyrics, after listening to it, it feels like a beam of sunshine shines in the dark sky. It's beautiful, gentle, and the eloquent words make you feel like you're praying or telling.
It just corresponds to the time when several members of EXO have left the group in a row, and the outside world is looking down on it. The fan base is in a state of turmoil, and they urgently need stability and comfort to give them some hope.
It may not be easy for passersby to tell, but fans of Ellie will definitely like the emotions and implications expressed in this song.
Seeing how serious Chi Jingyuan was, Li Xiuman also nodded seriously and said he would consider it carefully.
I don’t know how he held a meeting with the planning department afterwards, but after two days, EXO’s winter single for December was finally confirmed.
And last night, the project was officially announced to the EXO members. It was confirmed that "Been Through" will be the comeback song for XO's winter single. The MV will be filmed and will be promoted and produced.
song, but due to time constraints and other considerations, this return will not release a physical album but only a digital single.
Due to time constraints, this song will only be released in Korean, and a version with Chinese lyrics will be released later.
At the same time, the song promotion activities will be shortened as much as possible. The company will make specific arrangements for the song promotion time based on the response on the Internet and the schedule. However, it may only last for about a week at most, and by that time EXO will have the remaining
In addition to using the time and energy for the year-end stage, all the time and energy will be put into preparation for the regular second album next year.
To put it bluntly, this winter single is mainly to give fans some feedback and comfort, and to do some warm-up. The real focus, resources and energy will be on next year's return.
The plan for next year's comeback has not been made yet, but I think it won't be long, and formal preparations will definitely have started by then.
The release date of "Let It Be" has not yet been officially determined, but it is expected to be released in early December.
It's just a lyrical single, without the most difficult choreography or dance practice. It's mainly about recording and shooting the MV and makeup photos. There's no problem in terms of time.
The original single "December, 2014" was not wasted. Now that "Let It Be" has been selected as the winter song to return, Chi Jingyuan doesn't care whether to announce the game or not. Under the arrangement of the company, this song
It will still be released as planned and will be released through the mobile game "Super Star SMTOWN".
And in order to make up for the fact that "Let It Be" does not have a version with lyrics written by Xia Wen due to time reasons, "December, 2014", which has already been written with lyrics, will be produced in two versions, one in Korean and one in Xia Wen, which is also a comfort to Xia Guo's fans.
This song does not involve the participation of all members of EXO, but just like last year's "December Miracle", the company still only arranged a few lead singers to record this song, while the others were responsible for the soy sauce and watching from the side.
However, the official winter song "Let It Be" was performed by everyone. The other members didn't pay much attention to this 'game promotion song', so it didn't matter.
Yesterday, after listening to the demo of "Let It Be", several members, such as Kim Junmyun and Do Kyungsoo, liked this song very much. After going back to the dormitory at night, they kept humming it.
Practice officially started today. At this time, all 9 people gathered in the music room and were auditioning the repertoire that had been divided into parts. The company's music teacher was beside them to assist and give guidance.
"In the gray sky, there must be a brighter light."
After singing a chorus, Jin Junmyeon was still a little unsatisfied. He read a lyric that he liked very much, then looked at Chi Jingyuan next to him and smacked his lips: "I feel that the lyrics of this song are really suitable for our current situation.
, the writing is really good... Jingyuan, how did you write these words?"
"The quiet air and gentle warm wind always accompany me through thick and thin, yeah."
Wu Shixun recited his part softly, repeating it back and forth several times as if reciting it.
It is worth mentioning that in this winter single, Wu Shixun still only has this pitiful line in the entire song, and it is not sung, but rap.
When Chi Jingyuan got the part score, he almost couldn't help laughing. In the end, he was worried about Wu Shixun's face and mood, so he didn't show any expression on his face, but he forcibly suppressed the funny feeling in his heart.
.
Even though Ge'er was created by Chi Jingyuan, the part was not divided by him but arranged by the company. However, he could make some suggestions and the company would definitely refer to them, but it's not necessary.
Chi Jingyuan didn't know how he would feel if he saw that he only had one line in the entire song of his comeback, but if it was Wu Shixun...
He should be used to it by now.
"I didn't think of it."
Hearing Jin Junmian's question, Chi Jingyuan, who was reading the music score, smiled and did not hide it: "I also heard it from others."
"Tsk, we are all one of our own, why are you pretending?"
Jin Junmian curled his lips and said he didn't believe it at all. Wu Shixun also glanced at him unhappily and said mercilessly that Chi Jingyuan was just pretending.
Wu Shixun, this... is this to express anger, right?
Seeing that the members didn't believe him when he told the truth, Chi Jingyuan squinted his eyes and smiled and stopped explaining.
Anyway, people who understand will understand it as soon as they hear it.
After saying that, he glanced around casually, but secretly sighed in his heart.
There are only nine EXO people in this music room, and Lay didn't come.
After Luhan left, Lay and Tao made many demands for renegotiation with the company. When Tao also left, leaving Lay as the only seedling of Xia Guo, he naturally received more attention from the company. Chi Jing
Yuan knew that he had been communicating and negotiating with the company with his family and team since the past few days.
I don’t know what the specific discussion was like, or what decision the company made, but it’s obvious that EXO has made official changes. For example, this time there were only nine people participating in “Let It Be”, and Lay was not present.
The most ironic thing is that after walking into the music room, everyone immediately noticed that Lay was not here, but few people were surprised. Many members looked like they were not surprised that this was the case.
Except for captain Jin Junmian who took the initiative to communicate with the manager after discovering the lack of people, no one else, including Chi Jingyuan, expressed any objections or questions about this.
Indeed, they had expected it.
Chapter completed!
