Chapter 67: The Single in Progress
After the commercial, the camera that came back turned to the performance stage of HEY3.
At this time, in the center of the stage, Kiyoshi Sakamoto, who was carrying a guitar on his back, stood alone, standing in front of the shaking microphone, looking at the camera with blazing eyes, and behind him, there was a program band.
In an instant, Kiyoshi Sakamoto held the frets of the guitar in his left hand, and his right hand began to sweep towards the guitar strings.
A beautiful and crisp guitar melody flowed from the guitar in Kiyoshi Sakamoto's hand.
The stunning folk style of the prelude made the audience who have been listening to J-pop music all the time, as well as the host DOWNTOWN, instantly feel refreshed.
In RB, there are not no folk songs, and they are still more characteristic RB folk style, but the instruments used are all shamisen, RB biwa, and shakuhachi, which are more Japanese.
Moreover, it is a relatively simple and single instrument performance, and the attitude of pursuing Japanese style, which is very in line with the performance attitude of RB Music.
It is easy to distinguish the difference between RB's ballads and the ballads played by Kiyoshi Sakamoto now, and some audiences who are more involved in musical styles can clearly hear that the prelude to Kiyoshi Sakamoto's song is an obvious style of American country music.
Then, Kiyoshi Sakamoto began to sing.
“Well you done done me and you bet I felt it”
“I tried to be chill but you’re so hot that I melted”
“I fell right through the cracks”
“and now I’m trying to get back”
“Before the cool done run out”
“I’ll be giving it my bestest”
“Nothing’s going to stop me but divine intervention”
“I reckon it’s again my turn to win some or learn some”
“But I won’t hesitate no more, no more”
“It cannot wait, I’m yours”
As soon as you open your mouth, you know if there is one.
The audience, who was listening to the prelude, was already looking forward to the next performance of this song, but as a result, Kiyoshi Sakamoto used his warm voice to tell them that I can not only sing Japanese songs and compose Japanese songs, but I can also sing English songs and compose English songs!
The beautiful guitar melody, coupled with Kiyoshi Sakamoto's varied and versatile warm voice, instantly brought the audience to the American countryside.
This is a happy song that makes people listen to it and want to shake their bodies with it, so Sakamoto Kiyoshi stood in front of the shaking microphone, swaying, while performing, so that Fukuyama, who was watching Sakamoto Kiyoshi squirm from the side, also complained "It's really riotous... ”
The two of DOWNTOWN who were also next to them originally thought that this song could drive the emotions of the audience very much, and they also wanted to swing together, but who knew that Fukuyama's complaint next to them made both of them cover their mouths and laugh.
Because I want to laugh out loud, it hinders Sakamoto Kiyoshi's performance, so, the two of them endure it very hard...
Why did Fukuyama complain so calmly, because Sakamoto had listened to the master tape of "I'm yours" for him early in the morning, so this was the second time he heard this English folk song composed by Sakamoto Kiyoshi, but the first time he heard Sakamoto Kiyoshi's LIVE performance, but he was still swayed by Sakamoto Kiyoshi and was defeated.
"How can I have such a student, I know that he is sassy, but I don't know that he is so sassy! Obviously he is an idol and a powerful singer, but he wants to take the road of a comic and comical singer, so people will misunderstand, I taught you to be like this! Bastard!" Fukuyama roared a little angrily in his heart.
However, the audience under the stage really liked that when Kiyoshi Sakamoto performed like this, he added some of his own body language.
The camera was given to the audience at the scene, and it was found that most of them were swaying their bodies together with the rhythm, enjoying the happiness brought by this song.
Kiyoshi Sakamoto used his infectious performance to make such an American country-style folk song drive the atmosphere of the whole scene, and turn the entire studio into a small concert.
The show continues, and it's getting even hotter.
When the song enters the second stanza, the band, which has been making dummies on the stage, joins in the accompaniment of the song.
First of all, the drum kit, the harmonic guitar, and then the harmony of the accompaniment, so that the originally monotonous guitar accompaniment, the tune is richer, and it is more inclined to the style of folk rock, and this change also makes the already a little hilarious scene, more enthusiastic!
Time passes, no matter how good the song is, there is still an end, under the emotional and infectious interpretation of Sakamoto Kiyoshi, the audience is swaying with the music throughout the song, and the atmosphere has been very high.
Four minutes of performance, four minutes of partying!
The audience, who were not happy, could only watch with regret as Kiyoshi Sakamoto bowed and took the curtain call, took the guitar, and walked off the stage.
HEY3 recording, perfect success!
After the performance, Kiyoshi Sakamoto returned to the backstage standby room and found that Masaharu Fukuyama was already here, waiting for him.
Seeing Masaharu Fukuyama sitting on the sofa, Kiyoshi Sakamoto first put his guitar aside, sat opposite Masaharu Fukuyama, picked up the drink on the table, and drank it.
Masaharu Fukuyama also looked at Kiyoshi Sakamoto with a calm face, crossing Jiro's legs.
Sakamoto Kiyoshi took a few sips to relieve his dry mouth, and then said, "Teacher, I'm sorry. ”
"Oh, why apologize?" Fukuyama felt a little sudden.
"Because I alone defeated the two seniors in DOWNTOWN, so you didn't have a chance to play... Kiyoshi Sakamoto said deliberately with a mocking face.
。。。 Fukuyama was speechless.
"DO YOU THINK THAT THE PURPOSE OF MY COMING UP HEY3 IS TO PLAY GAMES WITH THE TWO OF YOU?
"Isn't it? huh?" Sakamoto Kiyoshi looked at Fukuyama who was about to hit someone with a cheap and obedient expression.
Suddenly, Fukuyama jumped up and jumped to Kiyoshi Sakamoto, who was sitting opposite, grabbed Kiyoshi Sakamoto's neck with his right hand, and opened the head of the ball he was tying with his left hand, followed by a head rub.
"Oops, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts!" Sakamoto Kiyoshi was powerless in front of his teacher, so he could only shout.
"You kid, if I don't teach you a lesson, you won't know how good I am. You dare to tease me. Fukuyama rubbed Sakamoto's head with a wicked taste, and Sakamoto Kiyoshi felt that his scalp was about to fall off.
"I know it's wrong, I know it's wrong, forgive me, I won't dare next time! Let me go!!" Kiyoshi Sakamoto had no choice but to beg for mercy.
"No, I can't let you go so easily. In fact, in the eyes of outsiders, Masaharu Fukuyama has always been a very handsome, charming, and gentlemanly such a perfect image, but in front of Sakamoto Kiyoshi, a student who is twenty years younger than himself, he has always become a "younger brother" who likes physical contact very much.
may be because of Sakamoto Kiyoshi's mental age, he is already an adult, and in the process of interacting with Fukuyama, he always gives Fukuyama a feeling of being a mature man.
So for Masaharu Fukuyama, who has lived for more than 30 years, Kiyoshi Sakamoto is like his little brother, sometimes cute, sometimes very annoying.
Just when Fukuyama was still thinking about how to punish Sakamoto Kiyoshi, the door of the waiting room at this time was pushed open.
It was Uncle Ishida who came in.
Three-faced confused.
Uncle Ishida saw Fukuyama and Sakamoto, the little ambiguous physical contact, silently turned around, slowly exited the room, and when he went out, he didn't forget to close the door.
At this time, Fukuyama and Sakamoto also forgot about the fight just now, and let go of the hand holding Sakamoto Kiyoshi's neck, Fukuyama looked at Sakamoto Kiyoshi with a confused face, and asked, "Ishida senior, did you misunderstand ???something" (Uncle Ishida and Fukuyama are the relationship between seniors and seniors in a school)
Sakamoto Kiyoshi also felt inexplicable, why Uncle Ishida came in, and went out immediately, after hearing the question asked by Fukuyama, suddenly, a lot of words came to mind - to engage in the base, GAY in GAY gas, pick up soap.
"Wouldn't he? he wouldn't have thought of going there?!!" Kiyoshi Sakamoto was also a little speechless.
The two glanced at each other, and jumped backwards at the same time, widening the distance between each other.
"Ahem, well, the situation just now is left to you and Uncle Ishida to explain, in short, don't let him misunderstand, I'm just a Zhengtai or. I still have a few things to do, so I'll go first. Fukuyama pretended to straighten his sleeves and said casually.
With that, Fukuyama turned around and walked towards the door.
"Teacher!" Sakamoto Kiyoshi called out to Fukuyama's back.
"Huh?" Fukuyama didn't turn his head, but just stood still, waiting for Kiyoshi Sakamoto to say what he said next.
"Aligado. Kiyoshi Sakamoto still expressed his gratitude to his teacher.
"Hmm. Fukuyama also knew the meaning of Sakamoto Kiyoshi's thanks, raised his hand, waved it, said goodbye, and pushed the door open and went out, leaving Sakamoto Kiyoshi alone, sitting thoughtfully on the sofa.
In fact, Kiyoshi Sakamoto knows very well that Fukuyama, as a special guest, came to HEY3 for the purpose of himself.
In order to show his support for Sakamoto Kiyoshi, he agreed to the invitation of the program team and came over to make a cameo, and also as a foil for Sakamoto Kiyoshi to help promote Sakamoto Kiyoshi's single.
Fukuyama didn't say it, but Kiyoshi Sakamoto was very grateful in his heart, because it proved that Masaharu Fukuyama really regarded himself as a very close person.
Therefore, Sakamoto Kiyoshi's sentence of thanks was also conveyed to Masaharu Fukuyama through the sentence "Aligado".
Kiyoshi Sakamoto was very happy.
However, when I saw Uncle Ishida coming in again, I was not happy.
In Uncle Ishida's strange eyes, it took an hour for Sakamoto Kiyoshi to let Uncle Ishida know that he had misunderstood.
"It turns out that you are not friends, but it's okay. Hearing Uncle Ishida patting his chest and saying such words, Kiyoshi Sakamoto was speechless.
"This uncle, I have also seen too many bad things all day long, and my thoughts have become very dirty, no, I have to find an assistant to come back, and I have to be close to myself, with such an agent, I am very dangerous. Kiyoshi Sakamoto was in the nanny car going back, and he was thinking about this all the time.
