Chapter 243: Happiness is in your own hands
After hearing him say this, Watanabe Lu sighed, "Really?"
"Of course it'......" Ye Zhao deliberately dragged out his voice and smiled, "It's really." "But I thought, isn't it true that people who make music think about the same thing in their hearts?
Wedding songs, as far as Nagao's "Cheers", as close as Masaharu Fukuyama's "Let's Be a Family", it seems that playing the piano and singing blessing songs at the wedding scene has become a must-have thing for Japanese couples.
And counting from the beginning to the end, I don't know how many wedding songs, all of them were born because a certain musician was born to celebrate his friend's wedding, and then released as a single, if it is of high quality, it will naturally become a famous song. Whether it's Glay's "Hoever" or Kimura's "Butterfly".
Even Namie Amuro's famous song "Can You Celebrate?", although the timing of the release of the single was more than half a year different from the timing of her own marriage, but given that her husband at the time and Namie Amuro herself belonged to the same Komuro family, when she got married, this single also released a "wedding anniversary revision", so why not Tetsuya Komuro gave her blessings to her wedding.
There is also a certain cold joke king who married Keiko Kitagawa and also created a song "KSK" for the wedding of the two.
However, there are also some more subtle examples of wedding songs, such as the song "March 9th" by ใฌใใชใญใกใณ, which was originally written by the band to bless a friend's wedding anniversary, but because it was paired with the tear gas drama "A Liter of Tears", it added a touch of sentimentality to such a warm song.
It's not just the musicians who have become famous who are keen to give songs to their friends' weddings, but even those in the music industry do it as if it were conventional. Maybe that's what musicians have in common.
When the next band went up, the lead singer took the lead and said a few words before the start of the song. "First of all, congratulations to Watanabe-san on his new marriage! Thank you very much for your continued care from Watanabe-san, so I would like to give Watanabe-san full blessings to this wedding no matter what. โ
"But I'm sorry, Watanabe-san, because I'm so poor, I can't afford to buy even a little decent gifts!" said the lead singer without paying attention, and everyone present laughed unconcernedly.
"It's okay, it's already good [now]. Watanabe Lu laughed and whispered. Didn't bother with what he was going to say next.
"I couldn't afford a good gift, so I had to put all my heart into the song that I was going to give to Watanabe-san and his wife. In short, it's great to be able to meet Watanabe-san! It's also great to be able to make music! In the future, I'm going to ask Watanabe-san to give me advice!"
"It's almost there~" The guitarist behind the lead singer reminded him with a smile, "It's too much." โ
Everyone present burst out laughing because of this. But there was kindness and understanding in that laughter, and perhaps what the lead singer said was also what many people thought in their hearts.
People with a slightly more casual personality shouted "Pretty good!" on stage, "Say more!"
"If you keep talking, you're going to sing it with tears~" This is said to the person who "said more".
There was a little chaos in the scene, but when the drummers of the band on stage counted the beats, it fell silent again. While listening to the song, Watanabe Lu suddenly whispered to Ye Zhao with emotion, "Concerts make people rich." โ
"yes. Ye Zhao echoed.
The singers and bands who came to participate in the celebration took the stage one after another, but the best of all the songs Ye Zhao had heard all night was the "Fourteen-Year-Old" band that Aiko was in. To be precise, the reason why I think the song her band came up with is the best, not because of the tune, but because the lyrics are really sweet and warm, full of girlish hearts.
After they stepped down, Ye Zhao leaned over to say hello to them, "It's amazing, this song." โ
"Thank you. Several people were very polite and owed him a debt.
"The song is very smooth, especially the lyrics, which I remember very well, it is a really good love song. Ye Zhao praised from the bottom of his heart, "Take the liberty of asking, who wrote this song?"
The man who looked like the captain drew a circle with his right index finger, "The song was created by everyone, and as for the lyrics," he pointed to Aiko curled up in a chair like a kitten, "It was Yanai's handwriting." โ
Aiko smiled implicitly, "See me, Ye Zhaosang." โ
Taking this song as an opportunity, Ye Zhao chatted with the members of the band. Another band ended the show on stage, and the lead singer asked the usual question, "After me, what's next?"
"Ah, it seems like it's my turn. Ye Zhao looked left and right, and saw that no one stood up anymore, knowing that the "regular army" on the name plate had already finished performing, only he, who had come out halfway, had not done anything until now.
"Ye Zhaosang also prepared a new song today?" asked the band leader.
"Of course, isn't that what everyone does?"
"However, this side has actually been discussed in advance, because everyone has thought about it for a while, and they feel that people like Watanabe-san must have no shortage of anything, ordinary gifts are meaningless, and they can't afford expensive ones. Speaking of this, the band leader himself laughed first, "So I thought, since we make music, and because music and Watanabe-san have met, it would be great to use music as a gift." It's just that I didn't know that Ye Zhaosang would also come over before, and just now, everyone was still talking about whether it would make Ye Zhaosang embarrassed. Unexpectedly, Ye Zhaosang also considered the same thing. โ
"Because I also make music, and I also know Watanabe-san because of music, so it's a great gift to use music. Ye Zhao smiled and stood up, "This is the so-called 'coincidence'." โ
If you want to talk about wedding songs, of course, you can choose a lot of them, not to mention anything else, the wedding songs listed above, except for Changgang's "Cheers", which came out as early as 1980, other songs are still far from appearing, and the latest "Can You Celebrate?" will not be released until 1997.
However, what Ye Zhao wanted to sing at this celebration was not any of the above songs. It's a song that has been entrenched at the top of the list of "the most wanted songs to hear at weddings" all year round, from the bitter cola's "Forever ใซใจใใซ".
Speaking of this song, some people may want to say "eh", "What do you want to do at a good friend's wedding to sing such an unlucky song?" Yes, there is a little story behind this song.
This song was a huge hit after its release, and soon became a hit song for weddings, but Kucola's singing career also reached a new level with the popularity of this song. Later, when Fujiwara Norika and Jinuchi Tomonori got married, at the wedding, Jinuchi Tomonori also sang this song on the spot to confess to Fujiwara Norika.
As for what happened later, not long after the two got married, this guy put the wife of the big beauty at home, and ran out to steal food by himself, and this marriage also ended in divorce.
married the goddess of everyone but didn't cherish it, and made mistakes first, plus Fujiwara Norika's office is a burning system that holds the media mouthpiece, this divorce battle has just started, and the balance is infinitely tilted to Fujiwara Norika's side, and the wisdom of the formation is lost both people and money, and his career is also hindered, and he will always miss the opportunity to be promoted to the top funny artist.
After this incident, some people thought that this song was an unlucky song because it did not bring happiness to the newcomers. But this kind of thing...... Shouldn't the happiness of the newlyweds be held in their own hands?
If it is unlucky because a song has been used by a divorced couple, then Namie Amuro and her husband are divorced, so can the wedding song "Can You Celebrate?" not be sung?
Every couple has someone wishing them "a hundred years of good marriage" when they get married, but there are still people who divorce, so in the future, when they get married, they have to say that "people will always have to part one day"? Or is it the same to eat seafood, because some people will be allergic after eating, and seafood will become taboo from now on?
Are you kidding. In Japan, all over the world, every day there are new couples getting married, and every day there are couples divorcing, and it is ridiculous to blame a certain song for the blame. It is not songs, ceremonies, or blessings that determine the happiness of a marriage, but the two people who will manage the marriage together.
The song "Forever ใซใจใใซ" may not sound so amazing, but the melody is warm and durable, the lyrics are simple and moving, and after eliminating the fancy things, what remains, just like the essence of marriage that "everything will eventually return to plainness", but the more so, the more touching this plainness is. It's no wonder that it has become a fixed song for weddings.
came to the stage, picked up the acoustic guitar, pinched the pick, Ye Zhao plucked the strings, and with a blessed heart, he gave the song "Forever ใซใจใใซ" to Watanabe Lu and Naoko Asakura in the audience.
After the song was sung, everyone present gave the same applause and cheers as the previous people on stage, which was the most heartwarming part of the whole celebration, neither because someone's song was not good enough to show snubbing, nor because someone came up with a good song or was very popular.
After singing the new song repeatedly, the next time is to do whatever you want. Regardless of the band, lead singer or musician, they sang as long as they wanted to sing, and various instruments were used, including guitars, basses, drums, and keyboards, as well as blues harmonica, saxophone, shamisen, and even whistles.
In such an atmosphere, Ye Zhao once again felt that the underground music circle was really a place of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. And Ye Zhao himself, at tonight's celebration, realized that he co-performed with Watanabe Lu's bass, not only that, but also served as an accompanist for other musicians as a guitarist, and also accepted the accompaniment of other musicians, singing some old songs.
The celebration lasted until twelve o'clock, and the last song was still sung by Riku Watanabe, which began with him and ended with him.
Riku Watanabe, who sang "ใใจใใฎใจใช" at the beginning, sang "Marriage" by Takuro Yoshida at the end. When listening to the lyrics of "Wait until my long hair reaches my shoulders, and after I am like you, as agreed, go to the church in the town to get married", Ye Zhao couldn't help but think of the once popular sentence "When my long hair reaches my waist, let's make do with it".
Although it is a man who wants to have long hair in this song, as early as the seventies, Takuro Yoshida already had such romantic feelings.
After the celebration, the musicians who came to the celebration consciously cleaned up the club, put the empty wine bottles, finished pizza boxes and other garbage into garbage bags and took them out, and then helped transport the tables and chairs to the backstage.
Because Riku Watanabe drank alcohol, the driver this time was replaced by Naoko Asakura. Sitting in the car, Lu Watanabe said to him: "Thank you, Ye Jun, what a good song." Although the mind is the same, if you only talk about the song, this one is the favorite of all the songs. โ
Naoko Asakura, who was on the side, interjected: "My words, I like the song 'Fourteen Years Old' the most, the lyrics are very well written. โ
"What a coincidence," Ye Zhao smiled, "I also like the song 'Fourteen Years Old' the most." Not only that, but just now in the club, I also exchanged business cards with Miss Yanai, the lead singer. โ
Watanabe Lu "eh~" and said with a wicked smile: "You shouldn't have any intentions for others, right?"
Naoko Asakura also joined in the fun, "Miss Yanai is so cute, even if Ye Jun has any further thoughts about her, it doesn't matter." โ
"Spare me," Ye Zhao said with a smile, "I just like her music ordinarily, so I just want to get to know her." โ
"By the way," Naoko Asakura asked, "Does Ye Jun have a favorite girl?"
"Absolutely, right?" Watanabe Riku said in a firm tone, "After all, I'm a person in the entertainment industry, and I'm surrounded by that kind of super beautiful woman, so I should ask more than 'do you like it', isn't it 'do you have dazzling eyes'?"
"Oh, too. Naoko Asakura and Lu Watanabe seemed to be talking about husband and wife, and they also took Ye Zhao and said: "Only this kind of thing, as ordinary people, we don't have to worry about it at all." โ
As soon as you said a word, Ye Zhao, who was listening next to him, couldn't help but cover his face, "Both, please stop in moderation." โ
Some exaggerated reactions fell into the eyes of Riku Watanabe and Naoko Asakura, and both of them laughed together.
"Having said that," Ye Zhao asked, "If you make that song "Forever ใจใใซ" into a single or an album or something like that, then if you do it, Brother Watanabe and Miss Naoko won't mind, right?" 2k reading web
