LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 196: Exchanging the pain and joy of being me and not myself for the rest of my life!
Zhou Yu stood on the stage, and the warm light fell on Zhou Yu's body, as if he had been plated with a golden edge. The whole person stood tall and straight, holding the microphone, quietly waiting for the end of the prelude.
Shen Guangyan and the others looked at Zhou Yu on the stage and frowned slightly: "Exchange the rest of our lives..."
Just from the title of Zhou Yu's song, we can tell that this is a modern love song. And judging from the intro of this song, it gives people a strong sense of fate. Some songs, just the intros, are very captivating to people's ears.
They have also seen many of Zhou Yu's songs, most of which are like this. The intro alone can catch the audience's ears at once.
Shen Guangyan no longer had the pride he felt towards Zhou Yu at the beginning. He now views Zhou Yu with a nervous and learning attitude. After losing so many times, the arrogance in his heart had long been defeated by Zhou Yu. The only thing that exists now is that obsession, the obsession with winning. As long as he beat Zhou Yu once, even once, he would be willing to do so!
Not only Shen Guangyan felt this way, but even the eyes of the audience flickered slightly after hearing the prelude of Zhou Yu's song.
"Exchange the rest of your life...Modern pop love song..."
Everyone has heard a lot of Zhou Yu’s modern love songs. It can be said that Zhou Yu is good at many song styles. Folk songs, ancient styles, rap, modern love songs...
Because he is good at so many things, everyone initially thought that Zhou Yu was just good at it but not proficient in it. But after listening so much, everyone discovered that Zhou Yu is very good at every type of song.
Especially modern love songs, which are very popular songs and one of the most popular types of songs. But precisely because of this, there are too many such songs, and everyone is tired of hearing them. But Zhou Yu's modern love songs can bring different feelings to people, even a strong sense of immersion.
Director Hong Tao squinted his eyes, looked at Zhou Yu on the stage, turned to teacher Liu Jie and smiled: "Just listening to this song, I can feel a sense of fate lingering in my heart."
"I'm really looking forward to his song."
Director Hong Tao didn't like some of Zhou Yu's songs before. He prefers songs like Zhou Yu's "Once Upon a Time". But after listening to it more, I quite like Zhou Yu’s modern love songs. I even feel that the songs written by Zhou Yu are better than those written by many people in the current music industry. The sense of reality and immersion, as well as the innovation and spirituality of the lyrics and music are unmatched by many creators.
On the stage, Zhou Yu slowly raised the microphone and began to sing.
"The lonely cat listening to the rain
Saw me in the cracks of time
Other me besides thunder and lightning
After the dark clouds have stopped
Jump into parallel time and space
You and me during my travels
Memories shuttle and fall randomly..."
The song Zhou Yu brought this time was "Exchange the Rest of Life" by JJ Lin. This song is written by Yi Jiayang, composed and sung by JJ Lin Junjie. Included in JJ Lin's music EP "Survivor" released in 2020. With this song, JJ Lin was shortlisted for the "Best Chinese Composer Award" at the Asian Pop Music Awards that year.
This song is the first lead single from JJ Lin's music EP "Survivor". Through this song, JJ Lin hopes to write different life stories and combine every moment of life into every possibility. For this reason, he used the touching story of risking everything for love and giving up everything in exchange for the one he loves as creative material to create the melody of the song. And he invited lyricist Yi Jiayang to create the lyrics of this song based on the concept of "parallel time and space".
This is why, when everyone listens to JJ Lin's song, they will feel like time and space are intertwined and destiny is reincarnated.
As soon as Zhou Yu opened his mouth, everyone at the scene fell silent. Everyone has now formed a kind of involuntary die-cut. Every time Zhou Yu comes on stage to perform, the scene is extremely quiet. It seems that he is afraid that if he speaks out, it will destroy the atmosphere of Zhou Yu's new song, and he is also afraid that he will miss some exciting parts.
Teacher Chen Mo was standing in the background listening to Zhou Yu's song. First of all, he was attracted by this song from the prelude. In the intro part, in addition to the conventional operations of the three major electronic components and string instruments, two different synthesizer tones can be clearly heard. In addition, the set of chords D-Am-C-G- is really hard to think of. Together with the silver color used, it feels like the entire time and space is fluctuating.
"This guy's music is getting better and better!"
He had always felt that Zhou Yu's lyrics and music were very good, but some people had been saying that some of his lyrics and music were too simple and seemed perfunctory. But Chen Mo feels that this is a style. After all, it is not every song. The more complex the lyrics and music are, the better. He even thinks that the most powerful thing is to be able to make simple things the best.
However, Zhou Yu's recent new songs have very good lyrics and music. He likes this song "Exchange the Rest of Life" very much.
Even for many of Zhou Yu's songs, he can have a great sense of involvement just by listening to them.
On the stage, Zhou Yu's singing continued, the pitch gradually increased, and the rhythm of the song began to speed up. Everyone knew that it was time to reach the chorus.
"Exchanging the pain and joy of being me and not myself for the rest of my life
After a cloudy day, there is always a clear sky that will continue your life
If we go through several twists and turns and the ending remains unchanged
I am worthy of this separation..."
Shen Guangyan and the others were listening to Zhou Yu's song. When he first heard the intro, he had a bad feeling in his heart. Especially when the chorus of Zhou Yu's song comes out, his singing is extremely penetrating and infectious. Coupled with the specialness of this song, the sense of fate that is caused by time and space is overwhelming.
In addition, the lighting on the stage is also very well controlled. It flickers on and off, and the atmosphere is directly filled.
Shen Guangyan suddenly felt that the new song he brought this time might be a bit dangerous.
He couldn't help but clasped his hands tightly. The king, who had been famous for many years, felt very excited and his palms were covered with sweat.
Is it really impossible to defeat Zhou Yu once?
Zhou Yu's singing continued, and the first half of the song was over. Many people at the scene had already closed their eyes, and a picture appeared in their minds involuntarily. The intertwining of time and space and the fateful intertwining of emotions between the male and female protagonists have fascinated many people.
"The anchor that locates the sea of heart"
Make time stop like slow motion
You said your fate is bad, right? Fortunately, I am there
If not, if the parallel goes out of control later
Those of me in different lives
In what way will I cry..."
It’s the chorus again, after which the first half of the chorus is repeated. In the last section, Zhou Yu's singing directly pushed the atmosphere of the scene to a climax.
"The clouds are waiting for the wind, the people are waiting for the dream, love is passing by, what are you waiting for?
I can't remember, I can't recognize who's blushing in the eyes of tears
Wait for you to say, wait for me to say, there will be a universe
The sun rises and the moon sets, true love changes loneliness
I may have forgotten my first dream while exchanging the rest of my life.
What time and space were we in at that time?
Because we hold hands tightly
Memories can also be held tightly
Don't be afraid of the wormhole ahead
Love is an antique of time..."
Zhou Yu's song ended, and his singing gradually disappeared from everyone's ears, but the lingering feeling remained in everyone's minds. Many people even couldn't come back to their senses for a long time after listening to Zhou Yu's new song. The various scenes described in the lyrics unconsciously appeared in my mind. The whole song was filled with a sense of fate.
"Zhou Yu! Zhou Yu!"
A moment later, the audience was chanting Zhou Yu's name, and many people spontaneously stood up to applaud him. Thunderous applause resounded throughout the entire scene.
Teacher Chen Mo also came to the stage excitedly. Before he could reach Zhou Yu, he said, "I can see that everyone is more excited than me right now."
"Then let's first listen to the opinions of the experts and teachers."
The teachers in the expert group also turned on their microphones at this moment, and the first person to speak was still the expert teacher who had always supported Zhou Yu.
"I have said too many things to praise Zhou Yu, but every time Zhou Yu brings us a new song, it gives me a big surprise."
The corners of the teacher's mouth kept rising wildly, and he was even so excited that he felt incoherent. After finally calming down, he continued to speak.
"I believe that after listening to Zhou Yu's song "Exchange the Rest of Life," everyone will have the same idea as me, that is, this song perfectly combines feelings with a sense of fate..."
"The second thing is that in the music, the first and second bars use D-A-F # m7- to clarify the major color, and the third to fourth bars use the circle of fifths to take over. And the fifth to eighth bars have a stronger minor color. . In the fifth measure, the chord did not return to D, but switched back and forth between two minor chords of level 3 and level 6, using natural minor tones to make the mood fall into a short-term melancholy..."
The teacher was amazed: "I have to say, Zhou Yu, I really admire your talent in music. It's really amazing!"
"I recently saw that Zhou Yu you joined the Songwriters and Songwriters Association, and I'm here to congratulate you too!"
He suddenly thought of something, turned around and looked at the audience and explained: "Perhaps many people still don't know the concept of Teacher Zhou Yu joining the Songwriting Association. Let's put it this way, before Teacher Zhou Yu, no one could join the two at the same time. In a large association, it can be said that Teacher Zhou Yu is the number one person!"
As soon as these words came out, many in the audience were shocked.
Although many people know this concept, there are still a small number of people who do not.
The first person to join the two major associations, hiss!
Zhou Yu is so terrifying!
Zhou Yu also smiled humbly. The following evaluations from the expert panel basically praised him, and there was nothing to worry about if there were some minor problems.
"Then our voting channel has been opened. Please remember to vote for your favorite guests. We will announce the ranking results of this issue later..."
