Seven Hundred and Ninety First
The year-end album list shows the support rate of die-hard fans; the year-end single list shows the enthusiasm of market popularity.
This point is the same in the billboard list, and it is also a phenomenon that has become more and more prominent in the changing times. The two lists are often prone to a subtle dislocation. A singer who performs well on the album list may be on the single list. will be slightly inferior, and vice versa.
Of course, this is not inevitable, it just means that things like Adele’s year-end albums and year-end singles titles in 2011 with "21" and "Into the Abyss" are more difficult than before-before It was already very, very difficult, and now it is raised to a new difficulty.
Take a look at this year's list, and you can get a glimpse of it.
The champion of the year-end single chart, "Blurring the Lines", took the top spot with an absolute advantage, but Robin Thicke's self-titled album only sold 1.1 million copies, ranking 30th in the year-end album chart seven.
The champion of the year-end album list, "Mars Jukebox", the only album with a sales volume of more than 4 million this year, and the first wave of the album's main single "Gongsuo Paradise" ranked sixteenth in the year-end singles list, and the second wave of the main single. "When I Was Your Man" peaked at number fourteen on the year-end singles chart.
The dislocation of the double list can be seen from this.
However, it does not mean that it is absolutely impossible. Daft Punk Band, King for a Day, Pink Lady, etc., have both achieved good results in the album chart and singles chart.
The runner-up on the year-end singles list is the stupid punk band "Lucky", which is ranked fourth on the year-end album list. Fengchao has won a high popularity that is not inferior to "blurred boundaries".
The top runner-up on the year-end singles list is the one-day king from the third place in the year-end album list—to be precise, it should be from Ronan, or the strong alliance of the top three in the year-end album list, "Classic "The advent of " also created a real classic, detonating the frenzy of the market.
"Classic" is known as the "King of Card II", and it crashed many outstanding singles including "Blurred Boundaries" in succession. Such a topical gimmick brings more attention to the single, and its stamina is astonishing.
Waiting for the end of the year and the release of the year-end singles list, people noticed that, except for the "blurring boundaries", those who stood in the way of the "classic" at the beginning have now been overtaken by the "classic", and even Far, far behind, the gap is very obvious.
This also once again proves the truth of "laughing last is the best laugh". Although it never reached the top of Billboard's singles chart from the beginning to the end, the record of "Ka Er Tian Wang" continued mightily.
I am afraid that it will be difficult to surpass in the future, and it can be regarded as a famous name in history.
In addition, the seventh place on the year-end singles list is also from the one-day king who ranked third in the year-end album list-this time it really came from the band, "Falling Apart", this single dominated the billboard singles for seven weeks. Definitely one of the most popular titles of the year, with a solid record.
As the second champion single of One Day King, "Falling Apart" laid the foundation for One Day King to enter the mainstream from the niche, completely changing the fate of the band; and the sharpness and uniqueness of the single itself also showed the color of the band, and Daft punk's "luck" is the same as a beautiful landscape in the music market this year, continuing a fact proved by last year's three major monster lists:
The so-called mainstream does not mean the elimination of edges and corners; while retaining individuality and color, it can also occupy a place in the mainstream market.
Therefore, refusing to follow the trend, refusing assembly line products, refusing to copy and paste, bravely innovate and break through, boldly insist on self, and maintain the vitality of music, this is the best way for the music market to regain its new life in the predicament of comprehensive shrinkage and downturn.
In addition to the above-mentioned No. 1 "Blurred Boundaries", No. 2 "Lucky", No. 4 "Classic", and No. 7 "Disintegration", the top ten of the year-end single list are:
Third place, "Shift-Shop," McMur and Ryan Lewis.
Fifth place, "Wake-Me-Up", Avicii.
Sixth place, "Give me a reason (Just-Give-Me-A-Reason)", Nate Royce of Pink Lady and Joy.
Eighth place, "Roar (Roar)", Katy - Perry.
Ninth place, "Can't-Hold-Us", McMur and Ryan Lewis.
Tenth, "Stay," Rihanna and Mikky-Ekko.
Looking at the top ten, McMur and Ryan Lewis occupy two seats, and Ronan also occupies two seats. Themes span pop, rock, rap, electronic, punk and other diverse music styles, and a hundred flowers bloom; all singles All music scores are above 6 million, and the top seven music scores all surpassed last year's third place "In the Mood for Love", a hundred schools of thought contend.
The most important thing is that in addition to the unique style types such as "falling apart", "lucky" and "residence" that are different from the mainstream orientation of the mainstream market, niche types such as indie rock, folk, jazz, etc. are also on the year-end list. Blooming on the music list.
Magnum's "Radioactive ()," at No. 11, broke the record for the longest number of weeks on the Billboard singles chart, displacing Jason Mraz's "I'm Yours." 'm-Yours), becoming the new all-time record holder, staying on the list for a full eighty-seven weeks.
Passenger's "Let-Her-Go", ranked fifteenth, wrote a miracle of folk songs, created a hot topic comparable to last year's top three demon lists, and revived the long-slumped folk songs. Glow with vitality and change history hand in hand with the Shining Band.
"Hey, Hey" by Shining Band, ranked seventeenth, needless to say, from outside the list to inside the list and then to the top of the fourth place, this single is undoubtedly one of the biggest highlights of the year, and it is even hailed as an independent ballad Light.
Lorde's "Royalty", ranked eighteenth, with this unique style of work, the seventeen-year-old New Zealand female singer turned out to surprise countless people, and won this year's Grammy Nominations for song of the year and best pop artist - but missed the nominations for newcomer of the year. To some extent, it also fell under the glasses of countless people, which indirectly proves that the competition for this year's newcomer is fierce.
Singles with different styles and types have occupied a place on the annual list one after another. This is undoubtedly the most exciting news in the current music market.
Compared with last year's scene where the three big monsters joined hands to win the rankings, this year there are too many "strange things", so people will not be surprised.
However, among these, the mighty momentum of the One Day King is still worthy of attention.
From the third place in the annual album list to the two top ten seats in the annual single list, you can feel the unparalleled momentum of King One Day in every aspect. At this moment, people understand that the strong attendance of the "Departure" tour , In fact, it is not a miracle, but a natural result.
One day the king already possessed such momentum!
From this point of view, the four Grammy nominations are not unexpected surprises, but icing on the cake.
