Blues and soul music have different playing styles.

Blues is performed in a "call and response" format similar to Chinese folk songs, which is called "Call and Response" in English. The soul music, hymns, labor songs, shouts and hymns originated from the black slaves of the past. The musical phrase will initially give people a feeling of tension, crying, and helplessness, and then the subsequent musical phrase will seem to comfort and relieve the suffering person.

Soul music uses the form of communication and duet between solo singers and accompaniment singers. Closely following the rhythm, clapping, and impromptu body movements are its important features. The particularly tight vocalization of soul music is also its main feature.

Extended information:

The blues spirit refers to a free and unconstrained spiritual level. The blues spirit is only used to summarize a group of people who tirelessly pursue material things in order to enjoy spiritual abundance. Wealth is a spiritualist in form, but it is also a materialist in reality. They pursue the best parts of fashion and introduce it into their lives. They are a group of people who pursue trends and then lead them.

Soul music was a fusion of Southern gospel and Midwestern rhythm and blues, and the revival of worship music was brought into the boogie-woogie world of rhythm and blues. Soul music is characterized by a solid rhythm section paired with a decidedly secular dynamic and religious music. Almost all soul music is marked by passionate, soaring vocals, occasionally with some improvisation.
