Chapter 1129: Borrow My Gun to Calm the Souls (2)
The spotlights on the stage have not all been lit up, the host Carson Ryan is dutifully saying some scenes, Cheng Xiaoyu didn't look at Joey Cook who passed by him, he stood safely next to Xia Shamo, who had changed into a black lace sundress and a pink hair cover, next to Wang Ou, Chen Haoran and Mo Lingshu, who followed the "Crown of Sin" on stage for the first time.

The five people stood in a semi-arc waiting for the stage, Cheng Xiaoyu turned his head and smiled and said, "I haven't played for a long time, are you nervous?"
Wang Ou beside him rubbed his hands and said: "Not only nervous, but also excited, I have been practicing bass for so long, just waiting for this day." ”
Mo Lingshu hugged the electric guitar that he regarded as a treasure and said with a disdainful expression: "Master, do you see my expression as nervous? Although it is my first time on stage as a member, I have seen a lot of big scenes of forty or fifty thousand people...... When I was three years old, I was taken away by my father, and when I was nine years old, I performed on stage, saying that you may not have as much experience in performing as I do!"
Cheng Xiaoyu smiled and said: "Hey, hey, this is different, today is a global live broadcast! Just now someone told me that more than 100 million people around the world are watching this final.....
Wang Ou gasped and said, "100 million?"
Mo Lingshu rolled his eyes and said, "Anyway, I can't see it!"
Chen Haoran did not answer this question because he did not understand what nervousness was.
Xia Shamo didn't need to answer at all, it turned out that as long as she had a microphone in her hand, she was not afraid of anything, she said while putting on the black leather neck ring handed to her by her assistant: "Actually, I'm quite looking forward to it, I haven't performed with you for a long time!"
Cheng Xiaoyu glanced at the dense audience under the stage, full of emotion, the song he sang today was the rock and roll work in his memory, he said softly: "I still remember the autumn of 09, in the bar street behind the school, Brother Jinglong is called' We started rehearsing the first song at the small bar of the Forest of Lights, the small basement was full of residual nicotine and beer smell, the 35-watt light bulb often burned out the filament, and the double bottom drum that we put together was knocked apart by Haoran a few times, and we ate rice bowls together, drank glass bottle Coke that won the lottery as soon as we opened the lid, and drank until we wanted to vomit. ”
"Later, we were on the music festival, on the magazine, on the TV, on the record, no longer using the domestic carlsbro box, and the TAMA that Haoran worked so hard to find, should have been broken by now...... Thank you for helping me achieve my dreams, these times playing music with you guys are one of my happiest times....."
Then Cheng Xiaoyu smiled, looked at Xia Shamo's clear eyes for a moment, then turned his head and said, "I'm sorry to tie everyone to my life, if it weren't for me, maybe you would have been able to live a more wonderful ....."
Xia Shamo knew this, mainly to her, she didn't answer, just grabbed Cheng Xiaoyu's hand tightly in the dark.
Wang Ou is actually a very emotional person, with red eyes, he bumped Cheng Xiaoyu on the shoulder and said: "Ma De! It's not a farewell performance, what are you inciting at this time? It's not that you and I may have nothing to do with music and movies in this life, it's you who made me find a more wonderful life!"
Chen Haoran said calmly: "Oh! I forgot to tell you, my brother and my sister-in-law are also offstage..... the 'Forest of Lights' is still there, and he is still waiting for you to return to Shanghai, and if he can go to the 'Forest of Lights' to perform again, he feels that he has no regrets in this life.....
Cheng Xiaoyu said with some surprise: "Why didn't you say it earlier?
Chen Haoran shrugged his shoulders and said, "He doesn't want me to say it!"
Cheng Xiaoyu said helplessly: "Wait until the show is over, I'll invite your brother and your sister-in-law to drink....."
Chen Haoran sniffled and said in a low voice: "Let's talk about it later! I'm a little afraid of him now, and I'm going to say good things about you as soon as we meet..... And then brag about how wise he was! He's proud to know you, he's proud that we've played in that little bar....."
Cheng Xiaoyu held Xia Shamo's soft and boneless hand, her heart was throbbing and she was about to speak, and the on-site director on the side had already beckoned them to come on stage to prepare.
Cheng Xiaoyu will be the lead guitar in this scene, he took Xia Shamo's hand and turned around to be the first to step on the steps, and then suddenly turned back and asked, "Do you remember what I said on stage for the first time?"
Xia Shamo took Cheng Xiaoyu's hand, looked up at him and said with a gentle smile: "Of course remember, we want to let them feel a different world......
At this time, the spotlights were all turned on, and the host Carson Ryan took the microphone and said loudly: "Now we welcome Xia Shamo and her 'Guilty Crown' band......"
After more than two years, Cheng Xiaoyu performed on stage again, he didn't remember how long he didn't feel the encouragement of applause, there was a crowd of people below who were black, there were glow sticks and light signs waving, in addition to someone calling Xia Shamo's name, some people called his name.
When Cheng Xiaoyu's close-up shot appeared in the live broadcast room of "Station S" and "The Voice of America", the barrage was suddenly densely packed with subtitles of "For the birth of the king!
However, those who swipe the screen also know the barrage etiquette, but after more than ten seconds, they are not brushing, and Cheng Xiaoyu's handsome face appears on the screen again.
"Oh great, my crown of great sin!"
"Tearful eyes! Finally waited for my big 'Guilty Crown' to take the stage, and finally waited for Teacher Cheng to come out of the mountain again!"
"Face-slapping madman Cheng Xiaoyu, someone just now said that it is absolutely impossible to sing rock ....."
"One of the things I regret most in my life is not being there ......"
"My empress is so picturesque, and my teacher Cheng is also picturesque! My mother asked me why I was holding and licking the screen!"
"I'm so excited! Finally wait for Teacher Cheng and Xia Shamo to merge!"
"The word fit is used horizontally!"
When Xia Shamo stood in front of the microphone in the camera, all the barrage stopped, and those who are familiar with the "Guilty Crown" know that this style is the promotional poster of the first album "Guilty Crown" of the "Guilty Crown" and the CD cover Xia Shamo's shape.
But no one will know that Xia Shamo is the butterfly prayer of COS.
Xia Shamo adjusted the microphone a little and said, "A song "DON'T. CRY" for everyone, I hope you like it!" (BGM - "DON'T. The original version of CRY, Guns.N'Roses, there are two versions of this song, and the one that is more widely circulated is used)
Cheng Xiaoyu waited for Xia Shamo to finish speaking, then gently plucked the guitar, and the melodious electric guitar sound began to echo throughout the gymnasium, there was no keyboard in this song, Cheng Xiaoyu was not only the lead guitar, but also to help Xia Shamo sing a few words of harmony.
IN CHENG XIAOYU'S OPINION, THIS GUN FLOWER'S "DON'T. The original version of "CRY" cannot be surpassed or imitated, and the lead singer Axl. Rose whispers a heart-wrenching heavy metal track, and the helplessness and frustration expressed in it are also extremely angry.
But Xia Shamo's singing version will naturally change the number of ways, different from the original version of pain and frustration, and become a passionate endeavor, even in a desperate situation, shouting "Don't cry", but the singing style is slightly different, but the heart-shaking is the same.
And Xia Shamo's performance in the rehearsal was very surprising to Cheng Xiaoyu, the original song is already very high, and it has reached the limit of the male voice and the female voice, but Xia Shamo sings an octave higher than this, not to mention, the passionate feeling of enduring pain and moving forward is also very good, this kind of singing is not lost to the original song at all.
Cheng Xiaoyu looked at the tall and thin Xia Shamo standing next to him while playing the guitar, and as Chen Haoran's drum sounded, she also began to chant:
wu~~
Talk.to.me.softly。 (Tell me softly)
There's.something.in.your.eyes!
Don't.hang.your.head.in.sorrow.
And.please.don't.cry!
I.know.how.you.feel.inside.I've。
I've.been.there.before。
As soon as the prelude came out, there were already countless people, and in the gymnasium of almost 20,000 people, there were only agitated electric guitars, low basses, high-spirited drums, and light keyboards to pave the way for Xia Shamo's singing.
Xia Shamo's singing made everyone realize: Although it is destined to be a dark night after the day, we still have the most beautiful moon in this dark night!
Then the guitar SOLO in the interlude, Cheng Xiaoyu showed his strong guitar playing ability for the first time in the global audience, and then Mo Lingshu's rhythm guitar cut in, and the master and apprentice competed with the piano skills, this passionate sound formed a strong resonance, like a throbbing across the ancient wilderness, which made people's scalp tingle.
At this time, everyone thinks that the image of a rock musician is so fascinating, no language, no need for gorgeous costumes, no education, no money, as long as an electric guitar or a pair of drum sticks, a harpsichord and a microphone, can emit a breathtaking light.
I don't know how many young people in front of the TV or computer screen have thousands of drumsticks and picks flying by in their hearts at this moment, they are shocked by such music and are speechless, and they have only one wish to shout in their hearts: "I want to learn guitar, I want to sing rock and roll!"
At this moment, Xu Qinning stood in the box, looking at Cheng Xiaoyu standing in the spotlight on the stage, and for the first time had the urge to marry him immediately without wanting to wait for a moment.
She felt that Cheng Xiaoyu was holding an electric guitar in her arms and singing in front of the microphone was really charming.
Also very moved was Catherine Blanchett, she looked intently at Cheng Xiaoyu on the stage, the picture of him playing the guitar on the stage, like an oil painting on the wall, was nailed to the wall in her heart and could not be taken down.
At this moment, she can't describe the emotions in her heart that are surging like a wave, she just wants to hold his hand and run in the wilderness where no one is around, she just wants to take his hand and dive with him in the silent and uninhabited deep sea.....
Catherine Blanchett felt her hands tremble slightly, and she asked herself, "Is this love?"
The day is about to break, baby.
Don't cry tonight.
Don't cry tonight.
Don't cry tonight.
Baby, heaven is over you.
Don't cry.
Don't cry anymore.
Don't cry tonight.
Xia Shamo's long and lingering long moan, like opening the audience's tear ducts, many people couldn't help but burst into tears, obviously shouting not to cry, don't cry, but why do they still cry?
Why did her voice so easily pluck the string in everyone's hearts, so that people could see the sadness of loss, the hope that was within reach, some were the darlings of fate, and some were outcasts of fate.
Her voice roams over every city, from Los Angeles to New York, from London to Munich, from Tokyo to Seoul, from Shanghai to Huajing.
From the sky to the sea, they used electric guitars and drums to convey this huge emotion with their singing.
At the moment they don't want to do anything but listen to the song.
They don't want to do anything.
Yes, do nothing.
Except for listening to songs.
With Cheng Xiaoyu by her side, Xia Shamo felt inexplicably at ease, at this time she didn't need to close her eyes and recall what she looked like yesterday, just raise her head and look up at the streamers flying in the audience......
The past things that Cheng Xiaoyu said just now flashed back in her heart, all those youthful smiles, those high-spirited white clothes fluttering years, and those friends who experienced sadness and joy together.
They have seen the cherry blossoms in March, the lilacs in June, and the ginkgo biloba in October, and those flowers that bloom in all seasons are all testimonies of love and friendship, and the roads and paths covered with fallen leaves, they walked together.
Those days of practicing songs together, the strings that bleed until their fingers bleed, those unbridled laughter, those tears of love, those who crossed thousands of rivers and mountains, those who did not regret their obsession for love......
All of this seems to be about to erupt at this moment.
These songs he has written and the songs she has sung are all footnotes to their youth scripts......
She sang with all her might, waiting for the curtain to fall and be able to gaze affectionately into his eyes.
"He's in the spotlight, he's right next to me......"
Baby.maybe.someday.
Don't.you.cry!
Don't.you.ever.cry!
Don't.you.cry!
Tonight!
