"Q Magazine", 100 points, "Pure and simple melody, sincere and profound lyrics, and moving and graceful interpretation. Lanly-Hall reawakened the persistence and preference for music deep in his heart, reminding people of Bob again -The era of Dylan and Johnny Cash. Undoubtedly, this is one of the best albums of the 21st century."

"Observer", 100 points, "Excellent.'Don Quixote' is undoubtedly excellent. Quietly wandering in the melody, you will simply fall in love with music again."

"BBC Music", 100 points, "Hall gave music the simplest and most ardent emotions: sadness and joy, bitterness and happiness, pain and beauty in the depths of the soul. Sometimes, it’s as if the music is too simple. It is too weak to carry the full emotion in Hall's voice; but more often, the deep and mixed emotions are mixed in the musical notes, touching the heartstrings."

"The Telegraph", 100 points, "It is hard to imagine that Hall is only 21 years old. Many artists are still confused in their small world at the age of 31 or even 51, unable to find their way. , But the 21-year-old has shown enviable and exciting talents. Don’t forget that this year there is another singer who is just 22 years old: Adele Adele Adele-Adkins."

"Independent", 100 points, "'Don Quixote' is a hot, wild, rebellious, rough, primitive, but also a strong pride, and at the same time thunderously removes all dissatisfaction It’s an album that both hit and smashed the protests. Just like Don Quixote."

"Filter", 100 points, "It is almost difficult to find such an album, so warm, so simple, so beautiful, so intense, so pure, so moving, so sweet, so shining, so unforgettable Hidden behind the mask of'Don Quixote', what kind of vicissitudes of soul is that? So clear, so transparent, so simple."

Praise! Praise! Still praise! The unanimous praise is even stronger, stronger, and crazier than "Love Is Crazy". Like the tide of praise, it is still impossible to vent the surging and turbulent waves deep in the hearts of these music critics, but "100 points" is fine, simple, straightforward, and frank, and present the most true thoughts of music critics Come out, all full marks, no flaws, word of mouth is perfect!

However, since there are so many favorable comments, why is the news of "Don Quixote" still unknown? The reason is simple. The above-mentioned media are all British professional magazines. First, they are professional music magazines, and secondly, they are British music magazines.

In the globalized Internet age, even British magazines can be read online from all corners of the world; but the question is, is anyone willing to read it?

Under the background of the general downturn in the global music market, the American music market is becoming more and more commercialized. Electronics, dance music, pop, and hip-hop are becoming popular, catering to the hedonism of the fast-food era. Music, like movies, is becoming an assembly line product; in comparison, However, the British music market has always stuck to its own perseverance.

Does the UK market like electronics? Do you like dance music? Do you like fashion? of course! The response of young people to rhythm and melody is irrespective of nationality and culture. But in addition to these popular music, different music genres such as folk, rock, soul, jazz, blues, reggae, etc., are all competing to open up on this land. It is not only as simple as having a place, but also can often create popular waves. .

Simply take Ed Sheeran as an example to get a glimpse of the whole picture. After the release of the single "Top" in the UK, it successfully landed on the major charts, and the highest position in the British pop music chart is third; and In the United States, it was received in the cold, and it took six months to make the list, the highest ranking being 16th.

Of course, this is just a case; but behind the case is the essential difference between the two markets.

After the release of "Don Quixote", the American market has not seen a single wave, and almost no one cares about it; however, the British market has attracted much attention and praises. Such bipolar treatment is actually happening.

Of course, the US market is not completely stagnant. As Jie mentioned on the "Tonight Show", the independent music magazine "Mixer" noticed "Don Quixote."

"Mixer" has always paid constant attention to independent music. Although "Don Quixote" did not have any form of publicity, they still noticed the album-two weeks after the album was released, they discovered it by accident. After listening to the entire album, their professional music critic Clyde Coughlin was shocked.

Clyde had praised "Cleopatra" and "Ophelia" at the beginning, and this time he gave all words of appreciation to Lanly Hall.

"As a double CD album,'Don Quixote' is destined to be an album that is difficult to be accepted by the market, but it is precisely such a bloated album that bears Lanly Hall as a singer, The weight of the soul of an artist, a performer, and a dreamer.'Don Quixote' shows the contradiction and persistence of life and dreams, and also shows the loneliness and thorns on the dream journey. No one knows what the end of the road is, the rebirth of Nirvana? Or the ashes? However, along the way, the scenery is so magnificent and magnificent, it makes people cry!

Brave, crazy, heavy, deep, and mixed. Just as everyone was cheering for ‘’, my personal best album of 2011 was just released at this time. This is undoubtedly one of the most outstanding albums since the 21st century. In my mind, it is even better than Nora Jones's "Fly away". Is'Don Quixote' the best? Maybe Bob Dylan’s Brian-Wilson’s Smile (**iLE) is a candidate worth considering. But for me, the answer is yes. "

With 100 points, Clyde did not hesitate to finish the whole review with full marks, once again showing his admiration and affirmation of Lan Li.

After the "Tonight Show", Clyde's comments were dug up by netizens, and then verbal criticism from the Internet: because he slandered the annual classic album "" in the minds of countless listeners, but also "Don Quixote" "De" has attracted a lot of hatred. Before many fans even had time to listen to the album, they could not wait to start yelling. Spotify's audition message area was overwhelmed by swear words, and it was truly spectacular.

Adele released his second studio album "" in January 2011. This album quickly detonated the market after its release. The album not only produced three champion singles, "Falling into the Abyss (Rolling- "In-The-Deep", "Like-You", "Set-Fire-To-The-Rain"; and "falling into the abyss" has become a phenomenon-level single Song, won the championship for seven consecutive weeks, and has become the subject of countless covers on social networks such as Facebook and YouTube.

Not surprisingly, the single "Falling into the Abyss" will win this year's North American annual single sales championship, and the current North American sales of "" has exceeded four million, and the annual album championship is already in sight.

There is no doubt that this album "" is the hottest album of 2011, and there is no one. But now, Clyde actually compares "Don Quixote" with ""? And more sure about "Don Quixote"? This... This is an absolutely unacceptable fact for the general public.

But in fact, from the perspective of professional music critics, this is a fact that cannot be refuted.

The overall media score of "" is 76 points, including professional music critics in the United Kingdom and the United States. A total of 34 media scores are obtained; and the overall score of "Don Quixote" so far It's 100 points, a total of seven media ratings.

Of course, "Don Quixote" is still receiving too little attention. After the increase in media attention, it is almost impossible to maintain a full score. Nevertheless, it can be seen that the attitude of the music critics-out of all the media reviews of "", there are only two full marks; and now "Don Quixote" has seven.

In the eyes of music critics, "" is indeed an excellent album, and it can even be said to be excellent. It is definitely an album with the most market potential since the 21st century; but from an artistic point of view, this is not an album. Complete album:

First of all, the quality of the singles is uneven, and the three winning singles are indeed higher; second, the injection of popularity will inevitably sacrifice artistic value. The overall emotion of the album is not coherent~www.novelhall.com~ and personal emotions are too Strong, but incomplete; again, Adele's deep and sincere performance in his debut album, especially "sex, gradually began to pass away."

In contrast, "Don Quixote" sacrificed commercial popular elements and demonstrated incredible artistic talent. From creation to emotion, from song to performance, every link is sincere and profound, and naturally received music criticism. People's fanatical pursuit.

High and low, it seems that all art is the same, movies are so, so is music, professional critics' pursuit of art, and mainstream market's pursuit of commerce, these are two contradictory and opposing factors.

It is precisely because of such a beautiful dark twisted fantasy (My-Beautiful-Dark-Twisted-Fantasy which is both popular and popular, which has established his position in the industry in one fell swoop.

After the "Tonight Show" was broadcast, "Don Quixote" was immediately pushed to the cusp of the storm. Almost everyone inevitably began to discuss the album, and more importantly, discuss the identity of Lan Li as a singer. , This professional singer who has released two singles and created live on the show actually released an album. Whether it was curiosity or onlookers, the lively focus of sight gathered one after another, and even the 11th work was killed by surprise.

Could this be a precursor to the explosion of sales?

However, whether sales can usher in a high/tide is not yet known; what is certain is that the attention of the media has gathered, and the album reviews on "Don Quixote" have gradually begun to increase. In just 72 hours, the number of media publishing professional music reviews has soared from seven to 29, which is more than fourfold. ) Download the free reader!!
