Chapter 126
Amidst the turbulent and messy scandals, the battle for the singles chart has finally come to an end.
The Planets narrowly beat the Adventurers.
The song "God's Spell" full of hope and strength was firmly at the top of the UK singles list throughout November of that year, and it was pressed at No.2. It's
Obviously, even after going to the United States for more than half a year, it is still easy for the powerful Planetary Band to regain their status in the British music scene.
But some fans of Adventure Group are very unconvinced.
They publicized everywhere, believing that there were suspicions of fraud and black-box manipulation behind the matter, because the ruling party in Britain that year was still the Conservative Party.Therefore, as an allusion to the Conservative Party's critical song "Vanishing Fairy", the government will definitely not let it become the top of the list.
But Planet fans are not to be trifled with.
After they heard this rumor, they immediately retorted sharply: "
The two parties immediately quarreled.
Some people ran to ask the two bands for fear of chaos, what do they think of this ranking incident?
On the side of the Planetary Band, James changed his face instantly, and said directly: "Fuck that! We won, they lost, it's that simple."
He also stretched out his finger, pointing to the front angrily, and pointing to himself: "If you don't accept it, let's fight again."
Completely Jimmy's answer, he has been famous for so many years, in his tone, there is still the aura of street gangsters who can't disappear.
The paparazzi reporter who was blocking him was amused, but at the same time he was busy remembering what he said.
On the other hand, Lance, who has been cheated many times by his lead singer's random speech, in this interview, the first sentence he came up with was: "Does any of you know what Jimmy said? If he has said something, then I'll just stop talking."
Several reporters laughed.
However, Lance was only joking.
Next, he delivered a well-prepared and well-prepared diplomatic rhetoric: "The Adventurers have always been a very good band. Their guitarist Weston is very good. I have played with him before. In terms of technical communication, he is very good and has no secrets at all; as well as the drummer and bass player of the adventure group, their control of rhythm is really admirable. Therefore, the relationship between us is very good, and There is no such vicious competition as reported by the media. Although everyone thinks that the Planet's song is better this time, I don't really care much (James: I'm lying, you care to death). It's just that the single The song rankings have always been full of uncertainty, no one can guarantee that they will be No.1 every time (James: Don't pretend, you just want to go back to No. Try to keep those things that have nothing to do with music from affecting us, put our energy on music, focus more on music, and make good songs one after another for our fans! Thank you fans for your continuous support !"
The speech is too official and too empty.
So much so that the reporters who interviewed him didn't want to continue talking with him.
and so……
It's really no wonder that everyone usually doesn't want to play with him when they stir up gossip.This person usually speaks to the outside world (unless he is annoyed by James), which is really not entertaining. It is too boring to be rigid. He is as lively as Jimmy. It is fun to make fun of, every speech is exciting, and his psychological endurance is super high...
At the same time, the adventure band did not accept an interview, but took the initiative to appear on a TV program to clarify.
In fact, they were disgusted enough by the so-called 'leaderboard manipulation'.
Don't get me wrong, they don't really think there is any black box manipulation, it's just the excuse that the disgusting fans made for them (of course, it's not all the fans' fault, the fans are also misled): First place?
That song was just a pure fantasy story from beginning to end, no Tory pranks, it was all made up by boring people.
When Doyle complained to women's clothing Gina before, what he said [I don't pay attention to politics, and I don't want to be famous that much, I just want to make music quietly] are all true.
The whole band of Adventure Corps hates that their new song "Vanishing Spirit" is far-fetched and given political significance.
Therefore, although the song did become a big hit and became popular, Doyle and the others also developed a deep disgust for this song out of anger.They wouldn't even want to sing the song on stage if it wasn't for work.
Therefore, in the TV show, Doyle took the lead to stand up and showed excellent demeanor: "The Planetary Band won in a fair manner, this single competition is absolutely fair and just, there is nothing to say, please don't think about it casually. "
Such a combination of punches came down.
No matter where the fans are, there is no opinion.
Although some fans who are still unconvinced will say a few words: "Doyle, are you crazy? Or are you really with that Jimmy? How dare you speak for the enemy?"
But this is a minority after all.
Since both bands are having fun, friendship first, competition second...
At this time, the simple fans who did not have the Internet to help connect with each other and unite to make troubles basically gave up and continued to make trouble.
However, there were very few things available for entertainment in those days.Therefore, some fans still had nothing to do and studied the speeches of the two bands.
Then they discovered that the good-looking black-haired guitarist of the Planets had a seemingly flawless speech, but there was a very small loophole that was funny.
That is: he praised the members of the adventure group, guitarists, drummers and bass players, but he did not praise the lead singer Doyle.
Because it is too small too small details.
Fans only discussed a few words in the small circle: "Is this an accidental omission?" "Maybe, how can we cover everything."
It wasn't until many years later that fans who paid attention to this matter suddenly realized how narrow-minded a certain black-haired guitarist was.
However, everyone who was innocent at the time still found nothing.
Misled by the media, they are still waiting for some new stories from the two lead singers every day.
But in fact, James and Doyle have almost no intersection in daily life.
Moreover, Doyle is superstitiously afraid of black magic, and usually speaks through Stuart: "Listen, I have cracked your black magic, and you can no longer curse me!"
James: Bah!You have the ability to say it face to face!
Stuart was about to die laughing: "Why are you two so funny?"
James said helplessly: "That's him, not me."
Still, Stuart laughed for a long time because of it.
After laughing, he also sighed: "I haven't been so happy recently."
The reason why James has many friends is that he is usually noisy, but sometimes he is very caring.
He had already seen that Stuart's state was not right, but he thoughtfully said nothing, but once the other party showed that he wanted to confide, he immediately showed his willingness to share: "What happened? Is there anything I can do for help?"
Stuart hesitated for a moment, shook his head, didn't say anything, just chatted a few more words about the music, and then left.
Later, James learned that Dancing Sculptures had also released a single at the time.
But while they were battling for the top spot with The Adventures, Dancing Sculpture's single failed miserably again, hitting the band's all-time low and dropping all the way to No. 37 on the charts.
This directly led to record companies losing confidence in them.
Therefore, the original plan was to release a long-prepared album after releasing the single.But as soon as the single suffered setbacks, the record company worried that the album would also become a money-losing business, and immediately asked them to suspend the release of the album and reorganize it.
For a band, this is tantamount to a bolt from the blue.
But there is no way to talk to friends about career crises and musical failures.So, Stewart didn't say anything in the end.
But on the contrary to Dancing Sculpture, the Planetary Band released their third album immediately after winning the single.
This time Lance couldn't think of a name.
James came up with another bad idea next to him, suggesting to call it [Planet Three].
So, there is no such thing as [planet three] of one and two.
The cover of this album uses Van Gogh's starry sky map. In the middle of the huge swirls and tangled nebulae, the tree fearlessly goes up to the clouds like a flame, unyielding, struggling and struggling.
Subsequently, some music critics called this album: [Planet's best album in recent years. ]
And: [Lance Winfield, the young songwriter finally managed to prove his talent to the masses. ]
Mr. Daly, a music critic who always liked to criticize Lance in the past, also made a rare comment this time: [The power and tenacity in the music are fully expressed by Jimmy’s voice, and the explosive accompaniment of Baldwin and Theo seems to be rocking violently. . ]
Then there was a very arrogant sentence: [You can also play the guitar well!The song that Lance made this time is quite nice. ]
In fact, not only music critics have praised it.
As soon as the album came out, it sold more than 7000 copies on the first day before the band worked hard to promote and publicize it.
It is conceivable that there will be no worries about the next sales, and it should be no problem to break a million.
This year, after returning to the UK after their exhausting tour in the US, the Planetary Band seemed to have finally arrived, and all the good things had caught up.
But the luck is not over yet...
As the end of the year approaches, the music awards of NME magazine also beckon to them kindly.
