The owner of the hit song “Bong Bong Bong” was shocked when compared to Nam Em.

On the eve of releasing her debut album, Vy Vy – author of the ‘hit’ Floating floating – launch a music talk show series called Behind the song. In the first broadcast, Vy Vy gave the guest spot to Hoang Dung, a brother, a senior in the profession whom she greatly admired. With the same starting point of singing covers, then composing and building a position in the hearts of the audience, both have similar views on their career journey. The ability to compose on their own is an advantage for young singers, when the budget and reputation are not enough to buy a satisfactory song.

Vy Vy talks about her first ‘hit’ that was lucky enough to go ‘viral’ widely. After making an impression on the show Big song big dealVy Vy was asked by Nam Em to use this song in the program The heroes 2022. The joy of her ‘brainchild’ reaching the “trending top” for the first time had not yet ended, Vy Vy had her first ‘shock’ when her self-sung version was compared to Nam Em’s performance.

Negative comments, criticism of her thick, husky voice and even her appearance once made Vy Vy doubt herself. For Vy Vy, singing is her passion and biggest dream. She confessed: “When I first started, I didn’t have enough money to buy songs. I practiced writing music just to serve my passion for singing.”

New version of Floating floating that Vy Vy releases will maintain the gentle but fresh ‘healing’ spirit and penetrate the listener’s soul more easily. Vy Vy said: “With this arrangement, I want everything to have a folk music feel and a more cheerful, youthful energy color while still maintaining the gentle freshness of summer. The vocals are processed in a simplified way, to be as rustic and real as possible with the main guitar sound. I want to create a feeling of closeness like two people whispering stories, playing and singing to each other.”

Hoang Dung was also sad when some audiences heard Ha Tran sing. Half a decade again “criticized” Hoang Dung for “not having enough experience”, even though it was a song he composed himself. With the experience of a senior, Hoang Dung gave her many valuable advices. Vy Vy also completely agreed with her senior’s point of view: “Listening and expressing feelings is the right of the audience. There is no need to be sad or angry because of negativity. Just read and consider what is right and what is not”.

Vy Vy also revealed that Hoang Dung is the music consultant for her upcoming album. He directly participated in the production process, giving advice to Vy Vy to perfect the arrangements. Hoang Dung commented: “When looking at Vy Vy and the new album, I see many similarities with myself in the past, also having to pack many things to pursue passion, considering each word to put into each song”.
