Chapter 221 I once transformed my youth into her
On the stage, Zhou Yu held the microphone, and the prelude was over. The ethereal and soothing prelude had already made everyone at the scene fall silent, waiting for Zhou Yu to speak.
Shen Guangyan and the others are also staring at the screen. Although they have always wanted to win against Zhou Yu, he now listens to and learns Zhou Yu's songs seriously. Today, he no longer has the arrogance he had at the beginning. He knew that there was still a lot he needed to learn from Zhou Yu.
Even because he lost to Zhou Yu, his idea of retiring began to waver.
Do you really want to retire like this?
Retire with this humiliating result?
How about persisting for a few more years and at least releasing a few more successful songs? Looking for an opportunity later, avoiding Zhou Yu to release a new album, and ending his music career with perfect results, this is what he wants.
So Shen Guangyan doesn't want to retire so much now.
He felt that he should persist for a few more years, and it seems that today's music scene is not as simple as he imagined. He can learn a lot from young people like Zhou Yu and others.
At this moment, Shen Guangyan's mood has changed. He really wants to beat Zhou Yu once. But he can also calmly accept the fact of losing to Zhou Yu, and he can also see things from Zhou Yu that he does not have, and learn from Zhou Yu.
On the stage, Zhou Yu sang, and his singing fell on everyone's ears.
"Stop and go along the way
Follow the traces of youth drifting
The moment before stepping out of the station
A little hesitant
I can't help but laugh at this cowardice of being close to home.
It’s still inevitable…”
Zhou Yu's singing voice is hoarse and slightly aged, and the gentle melody of the song, combined with Zhou Yu's singing, gives everyone a refreshing feeling. There was a touch of regret and sadness in the vicissitudes of life, and that ethereal and melancholy feeling seemed to turn into a faint sadness that lingered in everyone's hearts.
With this simple lyrics, everyone seemed to see a young man leaving home and returning in his old age. When I arrived at the station in my hometown, I was still nervous and nervous about going to war. My hometown was familiar yet unfamiliar.
Teacher Chen Mo's eyes flashed as he listened to Zhou Yu's song: "This song is a bit interesting."
There is no problem with Zhou Yu's creative talent. A few simple lyrics paint a picture of leaving home at a young age and returning home in old age, full of parting emotions and nostalgia.
Even Shen Guangyan and Fu Ming looked at each other, with a hint of surprise in their eyes. Although we didn't see Zhou Yu's rapping and Liu Zifan's confrontation in this issue, the quality of this guy's lyrical songs is very high. The song "The Wind Rises" gave them the same feeling. This section alone attracted them.
"Zhou Yu's scene is indeed very good."
This is the first time Teacher Fu Ming has seen Zhou Yu's live performance. His singing skills are really impressive. Listening to it like this is like listening to a CD. The clips and programs he had watched online before were enough to shock him. After coming to the scene this time, he was even more amazed at Zhou Yu's strength.
After glancing at Shen Guangyan sitting next to him, Teacher Fu Ming also smiled in a low voice and said, "Old Shen, it's not unfair for you to lose to him."
Zhou Yu, a young man, needs to be talented and talented, and he needs to be strong and powerful. There is really nothing to say about Lao Shen losing to him.
Shen Guangyan forced a smile. By now, he had looked away a lot, and he also admitted that Zhou Yu was really awesome. Now the only obsession in his heart is that he really wants to win Zhou Yu once, but it seems that this wish is getting harder and harder to achieve.
Liu Zifan was not very interested when he heard that Zhou Yu's "The Wind Rises" was not a rap song. What he wants is to crush Zhou Yu in the field of rap. He has no interest in other sectors. In other words, he himself is aware of Zhou Yu's talent and ability in this type of songs, and he himself is not sure that he can beat him in this area.
What he is good at and what he is most confident about is rapping.
On the stage, Zhou Yu's singing continued.
"Once upon a time, this world began
Lingering in all kinds of ways
I am willing to go through fire and water to walk it again
Walking through this world now
Lingering in all kinds of ways
Over the years, different faces
Unprepared to break into your smile..."
The song "The Wind Rises" brought by Zhou Yu this time is adapted from a Japanese song, composed, written and sung by Yu Takahashi. Later, Mi Guo wrote the lyrics and sang with coupons when buying chili peppers. After the popularity, many singers in the circle also sang covers of this song. For example, Zhou Shen, JJ Lin, Wu Qingfeng, etc. Among these cover singers, Zhou Shen's voice is the most ethereal. JJ Lin's version more shows off the difficulty of hitting high notes, while Wu Qingfeng's version is too feminine.
The original version of this song was a song for boys, and Mi Guo's lyrics perfectly expressed the meaning of the original version. Among the many versions, Zhou Yu’s favorite is the version where you can also use coupons when buying peppers. This is the one that he feels is closest to the original version. But it's a pity that it's a girl who sings a boy's song.
“I once had a hard time extricating myself from the size of the world
I also indulged in it and talked in my sleep.
No need to be true or false, no struggle, no fear of jokes
I once turned my youth into her
I also had summer popping up at my fingertips
Just go with whatever your heart brings you
Walk against the light and let the wind and rain blow..."
Zhou Yu didn't show any high notes, and his low, hoarse and slightly aged voice seemed to be the best interpretation. The sadness and regret that he talked about made everyone's hearts tremble.
They seemed to see a boy returning to his hometown to meet the girl he liked when he was young. During the short journey, they felt extremely uneasy. Thinking about the girl's appearance when she was young, I wonder how she is now. I hope that she will still look young. In the early morning, when I see her, her smile is still so sweet...
Even Director Hong Tao and the others were a little stunned when they heard Zhou Yu's song "The Wind Rises". A young man who ran away from home had to leave his hometown and the girl he liked in order to survive. When I came back again, everything seemed to have changed.
"The evening breeze blows the white hair on your temples
Heal the scars left by memories
There is a mixture of light and dark in your eyes
A smile brings happiness
The twilight covers your staggering steps
Entering the painting hidden by the bedside
You in the painting
Keep your head down and speak..."
Everyone seemed to see the former boy who returned home in his old age, and saw the beloved girl in his youth. The girl has gray hair and her steps are staggering. She is no longer the young girl she was back then. But there was already a light in the girl's eyes, and her smile was as bright as before. The boy seemed to be relieved, and the scars of previous longing were healed. At night, the boy found the girl's portrait hidden on the bedside, smiling like a flower, as if everything happened yesterday...
Many people's hearts trembled, their hearts lifted up, and that deep sense of regret filled their whole hearts.
Many audience members at the scene had their eyes slightly reddened as they listened to Zhou Yu's song "The Wind Rises". The sense of imagery and immersion brought by the song is so strong that many emotional people really can't hold it any longer.
"I still marvel at how big the world is
Also indulged in childhood love stories
No truth or falsehood left, no struggle
unnecessary joke
I finally gave her my youth back
Summer pops up on your fingertips
What the heart moves
Just go with the wind
in the name of love
Are you still willing..."
Zhou Yu's singing gradually ended, but it gave people a lingering feeling. At the end of the song, the scene was a little quiet, and there were even faint sounds of sobbing and crying, and many audience members were wiping their tears.
Zhou Yu also knows that the song "The Wind Rises" is very contagious. When he listened to it himself, and even when he sang it just now, the regretful and sad emotions filled his heart, making him almost nervous. Can't live.
Teacher Chen Mo also came on stage and started going through the process. The teachers on the expert team over there began to evaluate Zhou Yu. It was the same teacher who had always been supportive and fond of Zhou Yu. He was very excited every time he listened to Zhou Yu's singing.
"Zhou Yu's song "The Wind Rises", I don't really want to say anything more. I've already said too much about the lyrics and music. Zhou Yu's lyrics and music are both very good, and this song "The Wind Rises" pits boys against girls. The love, the unavailability of love, the regret and sadness of missing out are vividly described. I really like this song..."
Today, Zhou Yu, in the program, even the teachers on the expert panel who dislike him do not dare to target him easily. Most of them praised Zhou Yu. Even if there was a conflict, it was just to talk about issues that were insignificant and innocuous.
After all, there is really nothing to criticize about Zhou Yu's current song quality and singing skills. And with his current popularity and celebrity status, if he says something bad, his fans will not be able to scold them to death.
When Zhou Yu returned to the lounge, Liu Zifan glanced at him but said nothing.
Zhou Yu also glanced at him. This guy really thought he was very good at rapping.
Soon, Director Hong Tao walked in with the ranking results of this issue.
After greeting everyone and reading the advertisement, the ranking results for this issue were announced.
"Then why don't we announce the results of this period's kick-off singer Liu Zifan first?"
Director Hong Tao's eyes swept over Liu Zifan, and everyone was stunned, but they were still waiting for Director Hong Tao to announce the results. And they also want to know whether the number one rapper in the country can succeed in the gym.
If he had almost no one left, then those big words he said to Zhou Yu before would be a bit of a slap in the face.
Liu Zifan was wearing sunglasses and looked calm, but his hands were crossed unconsciously, and he was obviously a little nervous.
Even though he was arrogant and confident in himself, at this moment, he still felt quite nervous.
"Then Liu Zifan's ranking is..."
