How to evaluate Faye Wong's singing skills?

An expert objectively evaluated Faye Wong's singing skills and voice conditions (reproduced)

Wang Feigui is the "Asian queen" and must be good at singing. Many Filipino fans have their own comments on Faye Wong's singing skills. Comments such as "ethereal, amazing, and first-class singing skills" are not uncommon, but I really can't agree with those blind followers who don't know vocal music and those Filipino fans who follow others. Here I will simply evaluate Faye Wong's singing level.

Faye Wong's voice condition: Faye Wong's voice condition is not good, and there are several weaknesses that cannot be ignored.

First of all, the range is narrow: as his teacher Dai Sicong said, Faye Wong has a narrow range, and the true voice is only 12 degrees (after training), plus the falsetto is only two octaves. But Filipino fans will say that Faye Wong's falsetto is good, and most people can't sing it. This is a typical arrogant, comforting and ignorant statement. Just pulling a woman from the street can sing falsetto to a high level. The female friends around us can basically reach a high C with falsetto, so the range of falsetto is not convincing.

Secondly, the voice is thin: Faye Wong's voice has a thin timbre, and I believe no one has any objection. Of course, a thin voice sometimes gives people the illusion that the voice is light and ethereal, which is actually a misunderstanding. The sound is ethereal and light, which is different from the soft sound. Many European and American female singers have ethereal and thin voices, but they have strong penetrating power, and can easily pass through the electro-acoustic band to achieve shocking results. However, the scene in Faye Wong is very bad, largely because her voice is too thin! ! This thin and penetrating sound is actually very bad.

Thirdly, the range transition is unnatural: I once wrote a vocal commentary, describing Faye Wong's voice as a typical "two-stage voice". In fact, you can hear that Faye Wong's high notes are basically falsetto, and it will be very hard to switch from the midrange to the high notes, which is really false. This kind of voice is not conducive to scientific voice, and the effect is also very bad. So when we listen to Faye Wong live, we will feel that the high notes are ethereal and weak, because the falsetto is weak (this is called lightness skill in Bel Canto). Why is Li Jian's legend relatively free and embarrassing? Cai Qin also commented on Faye Wong's voice "space spirit, no texture", which is a very pertinent evaluation!

Faye Wong's singing skills: After talking about Faye Wong's voice conditions, let's take a look at Faye Wong's singing skills.

First of all, the breath control ability of the scene is poor: I have heard of two scenes in Faye Wong, and to be honest, the breath of the scene is really poor, which is manifested as: I was out of breath when singing, as if I had just finished running the 10,000-meter relay, and my voice was unstable and occasionally inaccurate! It feels like an amateur with a good sense of music is singing and playing, which is not professional at all. It can be said that if Faye Wong is allowed to take part in a competition like Super Girl, I don't think she can even pass the audition.

Secondly, the technology of voice exchange area is poor! As I said just now, when Faye Wong changed from alto to treble, it was unnatural. Generally, female singers pay attention to voice change. For example, if you listen to Mao Amin, Li Na and Tian Zhen, it is not difficult for them to sing high notes, and it is not so embarrassing to change to falsetto. Faye Wong, however, is limited by his lack of talent and skills, and can only confuse the real with the fake. However, her falsetto is awkward and lame because she can't understand it at all. I have never heard any songs by Faye Wong, nor have I heard any live singing with mixed notes! Never. It is conceivable that a singer who has been in the business for more than 20 years has sung hundreds of times, but his singing skills have not improved at all, and occasionally his voice is broken. This can't help but say that Faye Wong's singing is really not at home!

I didn't attack personally, I only aimed at the real singing on the spot. If you want to discuss, please put facts and take out live audio and video to debate (except lip-synching).
