Chapter 120: The Yearning for Freedom
Some people once wondered what rock music was and what the spirit of rock 'n' roll was.
Liu Pian hadn't figured out these things, but he knew that rock music rarely sang about love. What is the most sung? Ideals, rebellion and reflection on society, pessimism or optimism, and in Europe and the United States, there are many songs of anarchism and anti-religion.
So there is a big difference between rock and pop music now, most of the rock is not for commercial purposes, more of it comes from the soul. Why was Shucun so poor that it was scumbag, and many famous rock bands were still born, and it still became the former rock and roll mecca of China.
Many people who play rock and roll do have a different state of mind from ordinary people, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they are "crazy".
It's just that in the current era, Chinese rock music is basically dead.
One era, one fashion.
At least in the entertainment industry, it is difficult to see them, and in underground rock and bars, they may be able to be found.
At this moment, Liu Pian was holding the guitar and looking at Li Yu with a painful face, as well as the guests who were coaxing around. These guests are having a lot of fun and don't care who the singing person is.
"Liu Pian, come on, don't be shy!" Li Yu laughed.
Liu Cheng also looked at Liu Pian as if he was lively, he had heard Liu Pian sing so many songs, but he hadn't heard a rock song yet.
I don't know if my student can rock and roll.
As everyone knows, Liu Pian is trading PY with the system. From the beginning of October to the present, Liu Pian has saved more than 6,000 deception points, and in addition to smoking "Dark War 2", there are still more than 4,000 left.
"System. ”
"Big brother. ”
"Bring me a rock song!"
【.....】
"Lottery Draw!"
[Congratulations to the host, the song "Blue Lotus" was drawn]
Liu Pian's eyes lit up, and she was grateful, "System, you're so good." ”
[Okay, you're big, let's think about how to sing]
Liu Pian didn't talk nonsense, and quickly found an excuse to sneak to the toilet and listen to the song first.
Li Yu and the others couldn't help but wonder when they saw the escape of the Liu liar. Some of the guests also coaxed,
"Li Yu, is the person you are looking for?"
"You're not going to just run away, are you?"
"Come on, you better sing it yourself, the big guy doesn't care. ”
"That's it, the music is playing!"
Li Yu was also helpless, wondering if he was too sudden and didn't give Liu Pian a little time to prepare.
"Lao Liu, do your students really know how to play rock and roll?" Li Yu found Liu Cheng and asked.
"Didn't he say he would?" Liu Cheng couldn't figure out Liu Pian's true strength, and he always thought that this kid was at his limit, but he could always write better songs.
"Didn't you teach him rock 'n' roll?" Li Yu wondered.
"No, I taught him some music theory. ”
Li Yu: "......"
Uh, does this kid really play rock 'n' roll?
......
After a while, Liu Pian returned to the bar and played the electric guitar. Li Yu breathed a sigh of relief, at least this kid didn't release his own pigeons.
Behind Liu Pian, Li Yu's team member asked,
"Boy, which song are you going to sing?" asked the bass player.
"Let's sing 'Black Dreams' first. Liu Pian smiled slightly.
"Okay. ”
Liu Pian has heard this song of the legendary band and is more familiar. He plans to sing other people's songs first, and then sing his own songs after getting used to the band's cooperation and stage atmosphere.
The fingertips were plucked on the strings, and Liu Pian's unique sultry soulful voice slowly sounded. He specially used some explosive techniques when singing "What If", and the heart-rending high note made the audience couldn't help but be moved.
Liu Pian's high voice and Liu Pian's singing skills are all top-notch.
Li Yu also nodded after listening: "Yes, this kid has a good background, his voice recognition is quite high, and he is a good seedling." ”
Liu Cheng smiled and shook his head, have you ever heard the songs of Liu Pian's vest, full of too many feelings, I don't know how this kid sang it.
Subsequently, Liu Pian sang a few more songs of the legendary band, which ignited the atmosphere in the audience again.
Many women looked at Liu Pian who sang affectionately on the stage, and their eyes were full of "stars".
Liu Pian is a young man, he is handsome, he sells countless grades better than Li Yu's uncle, and he sings a good song, and his charm is rising geometrically.
The women who come to the bar, not to mention that all of them are dusty women, but there are definitely many of them who come with the same "hunting" purpose as men.
Obviously, Liu Pian fits their conditions well.
"Handsome guy, one more song!"
Some women kept throwing flattering eyes at Liu Pian, and some made hints at Liu Pian, which made a "numb scalp".
Ya, if Liu Yi was here, I'm afraid I would have pounced on it a long time ago.
With a clear cough, Liu Pian said into the microphone: "After listening to so many songs, let's change our taste." ”
"Okay, handsome guy, you have the final say. A girl laughed.
Liu Pian is embarrassed....
In fact, the song "Blue Lotus", Liu Pian feels that it is indeed different from many rock 'n' roll. The earliest definition of rock was "guitar + drum", and later there was bass, which is the legendary "three pieces" of rock, which makes people think that without these three pieces, then this song is not rock.
Blue Lotus has.
But for some, rock can be loud music, with a distorted guitar tone, a loud shout, a strong rhythm, a shocking feeling, and so on. But some people think that it is okay to express strong feelings in a straightforward voice.
Not all rock is a ripping cry of heavy metal.
Especially in modern times, rock and pop are intertwined too much, pop rock is also rock, and folk rock is also rock.
And pop rock is perhaps more in line with the aesthetics of the modern public.
"The following song is called..."
"Blue Lotus. Liu Pian smiled quietly.
Several members of the band behind him were puzzled, what kind of song is this? Did our band write this?
Liu Pian explained to the few people behind her, "Let's just follow my rhythm and accompaniment later." ”
The singing here is all live instruments, and there are no audio tapes. The accompaniment to the song "Blue Lotus" is very simple, and the "three pieces" are enough to play.
"Good. Several members of the band nodded, and since Liu Pian said so, they did so. Having been playing in a band for more than ten years, it's not particularly difficult for them to do.
Offstage, Liu Cheng's eyes lit up, he knew that Liu Pian was going to sing his own song.
"This song is...," Li Yu asked.
"It should have been written by Liu Pian herself. ”
Li Yu became interested, "Oh? Then I'll listen to it carefully." ”
......
The tune of "Blue Lotus" echoed in his mind, Liu Pian gently plucked the guitar, and under the stimulation of the system, he spoke softly:
"Nothing can stop you
Your yearning for freedom ~~~"
Gentle tunes, gentle singing, seem to be out of place in a noisy bar. When many guests heard this song, they were obviously stunned, and a strange feeling rose in their hearts.
This strange feeling became clearer and clearer under Liu Pian's singing...
"Through the dark years
I also felt hesitant
The moment you look down
Only then did I realize the road under my feet~~~~"
What kind of song is this.....
Many people turned their attention to Liu Pian on the stage with her eyes closed.
Although this song does not have such a shocking tune, it can touch the hearts of many people in such a calm way. It's like a trickle of water slowly flowing through the heart, washing the impetuous heart.
What a strange song....
"The world of freedom in my heart
So clear and lofty
Bloom and never wither...."
Liu Pian raised her head, her eyes met the psychedelic light overhead, and shouted:
"Blue Lotus ~~~~~~"
And when these three words resounded throughout the bar, many people were stunned. It's not the shock of goosebumps all over your body that is pierced by metallic silver, but the worry of falling into memories in the afternoon sun.
It was calm and warm.
The Blue Rose Bar is not an elegant, stylish place, and the people who come are not literati. But at this moment, everyone suddenly felt that their hearts were not so impetuous.
It's weird.
It's just that for some reason, it's calmer.
Liu Pian was still singing "Blue Lotus" as if she was recounting her memories, and everyone listened quietly, but no one disturbed this rare quiet moment.
It wasn't until the song fell that everyone broke free from the strange atmosphere.
At this time, I only heard Liu Pian smile and said: "Legend has it that there is a blue lotus flower that never withers in Xiyun Mountain, and anyone who has seen the blue lotus will be happy." ”
"I hope everyone can find their own happiness. ”
The crowd was silent.
Suddenly, a drunken middle-aged man said, "Young man, sing it again, it's very good, I still want to hear it." ”
He's a depressed drunken buyer.
"Sing it again, I want to hear it too. The others shouted.
Someone also gave Liu Pian some wine and urged him to sing again.
Liu Pian smiled faintly, nodded in tacit agreement with a few people behind her, and continued to sing.
Offstage, Li Yu sighed faintly: "Lao Liu, you student is really amazing...."
