, we analyzed the causes and consequences of the formation of the song "Earth" and understood the importance of this song to the band. If you haven't read it, you can revisit it, I will post it here.
Everyone knows that this song was written by Huang Kaju in 1986. I have always loved this song. Waiting to use it to fight hard and fight a beautiful turnaround.
Ordinarily, such an important song should be sung by Jia Ju himself, but why is Huang Guanzhong the last singer? What's the story behind this? Today we will analyze it.
"Secret Police" Beyond has returned to the four-child state
First of all, let's take a look at Beyond's first album "Dancing Girl of Arabia" released under the name of the company. How many songs did Huang Jiaju sing? The answer is: Twelve songs. In other words, all the songs in the first album were completed by Jia Kui alone, accounting for 100%.

Let's look at the second album "Now Stage". How many songs did Huang Jiaju sing? The answer is: six and a half.
"Cold Rainy Night" sang for Huang Jiaqiang.
"Midnight Wandering" and "Once Again" sang for Huang Guanzhong.
also sang "Up to the Clouds" for Huang Jiaju and Huang Jiaqiang, so it is called a half song. It can be said that
has a total of eleven songs, accounting for 60%, which is a 40% reduction compared with the previous one.
"Modern Stage" album
Let's look at the third album "Secret Police". How many songs did Huang Jiaju sing? The answer is: five poems.
"The Earth", "May I Can" and "Every Section of Road" are performed by Huang Guanzhong.
"Yesterday's Bond" is sung by Huang Jiaqiang.
"Goodbye Ideal" is a chorus of four, but this song is an old song and it is not the latest work. Among the ten songs in
, Jiaju accounted for 50%, which is another 10% less than the previous one.

Why does this happen? What does this show? Let me analyze it for everyone.
1. The creative ability of other team members is improving.
is everyone’s dream to release an album, and it is also a task that everyone should complete together, not Jiaju alone. So everyone should contribute to the new album. The biggest improvement is Huang Guanzhong.
, in the first album "Dancing Girl of Arabia", and Huang Jiaqiang first tried to compose the song "Dune Witch", I guess Huang Guanzhong fell in love with creation unconsciously. In "Modern Stage", it is already possible to independently create such good works as "Midnight Wandering". In "Secret Police", two high-quality originals are included, "Every Section of the Road" and "May I Can".
and this is still published. The creation has been completed but has not yet been published at the time, I guess there are more.
Huang Jiaqiang's "Yesterday's Bond" is also a good love song full of affection and beautiful melody.
2. Jia Ju is actively creating opportunities for other players.
"hands are big than the sky", Jia Ju should understand this truth. A good team leader should lead everyone to develop together, instead of doing everything by themselves. And as the popularity becomes higher and higher, the work flow of Huang Jiaju, who is the captain, should be more and more full, and more things have to be dealt with, and the creative energy will be reduced. Therefore, he needs his brothers to improve and relieve his pressure.
But this does not mean that his creative ability has declined. As long as Huang Jiaju wants to create, good works will definitely emerge in endlessly. He is the kind of person who is strong when he meets the strong, and he can adapt to the changes of the environment. Therefore, it is not true to say that his own works are not enough, and he uses the works of his brothers to make up the number.
3. The rising band needs to transform.
For the beyond at that time, they urgently needed to pass constant transformation to find the appetite of this market, and then make a decision.Lay a solid foundation for its own positioning.
At that time, there was a band called "Tai Chi Band". This band was characterized by a large number of people. There were only three lead singers who were responsible for the high range, midrange and low range. The crowd is so capricious.
Hong Kong "Tai Chi Band", the songs are so good.
Of course, there are too many people. The disadvantage is that after an album is released, others will not recognize all the members because of the large number of people and think it is a platter album. The cover of Beyond's third album "Secret Police" has learned their lesson, and now it is completely unnecessary, because there are not many people in Beyond.
based on the above three points, leading to fewer and fewer lead singers in Jiaju, but later proved that this is not a bad thing.
considers from the company level, if there is only one voice in a band, will it be too monotonous?
considers from the fan level, one more person creates more fans. Huang Guanzhong has a handsome appearance and is easily sought after by girls. If Ye Shirong is stronger in this respect, the beyond band will definitely be a mess. Instead, the most handsome member played drums behind. In the arrangement, did the band make a mistake? From the perspective of band members,
has more opportunities to show up, which is definitely not a bad thing for the band. The most important thing about
is from the song "The Earth". It is a killer in itself. With the social status of the beyond band at that time, no matter which member sang it, it would be a hit song. In other words, Huang Jiaju can sing red, Huang Guanzhong can sing red, Huang Jiaqiang can sing red, and even Ye Shirong can sing red.
Since anyone can sing popular, why not use this song to introduce another lead for the band? Therefore, at this time, Chen Jiantian, who has never interfered with music, discussed with Jia Ju that the song should be sung by Huang Guanzhong.
Can you imagine what Jia Kui would feel like at that time? But we know that in the end Jia Ju accepted this opinion. This is the feelings of a big man.
Don't underestimate this decision, because the song "Earth" directly established Huang Guanzhong's position as the second lead singer in the band and ushered in another peak for the band's future development.
