Chapter 89: The Brightest Star in the Night Sky
"Next, I would like to invite the No. 14 contestant, Su Xiaoya, a student from Modu University of the Arts, to bring you her latest original song 'The Brightest Star in the Night Sky', everyone applauds!"
As is customary, the audience in attendance applauds for about three seconds. But three seconds later, some of the audience were still clapping vigorously, and the applause echoed in the specially designed auditorium.www.biquge.info
What's going on? Someone was confused. Could it be that the one who is about to play is a little star? But what a proud group of students from the Yanhuang Academy Alliance, even if a little star comes, they won't applaud so vigorously.
Guo Qing unconsciously straightened his waist, revealing an expression of serious listening.
Shi Hao glanced at her side face, trying his best not to have special feelings for her. He put his attention back on the stage, and Su Xiaoya had already stepped onto the stage.
She didn't dress up in ancient costumes today, on the contrary, she was dressed very fashionably, and her sweet smile looked very natural.
It seems that after the last school primary, her courage has grown a lot, and there is no stage fright on this high-profile stage.
Su Xiaoya walked to the center of the stage, bowed in three directions, and when she raised her head, her face was full of smiles: "Thank you for your applause, I will do my best to sing this song well." ”
The music sounded, and the applause gradually stopped. After a few notes, someone whispered in the audience: "What is this?" ”
"What kind of music is this, oh my God."
"She's going to give up, what the hell!"
Su Xiaoya nodded gently to the rhythm of the music, and her little hands unconsciously beat the beat.
Then she lightly lifted her lips: "The brightest star in the night sky, can you hear clearly, the people who look up, the loneliness and sigh in the bottom of your heart?" ”
The uproar in the audience was louder. What is it? Vernacular lyrics? It's unprecedented! Writing songs either uses ancient poems, or creates ancient words by yourself, this is the rule. How can anyone take the vernacular to sing on stage! Isn't that a shame!
"Singing something, nonsense!" An alumnus of a certain school who is not young spoke out angrily.
"yes, what do the organizers think, this kind of thing can also be allowed to come to power? Young people now. ”
There were also a few who disagreed. "Don't make a fuss, I can't hear the lyrics clearly."
"It's very good, you don't care if it's ancient or vernacular, just listen to it."
Su Xiaoya couldn't hear what the people in the audience were saying, and she couldn't see their faces clearly. But she knew very well that the song she sang would definitely receive a lot of criticism.
But she just wanted to sing. After her brother wrote the song to her, she was resistant at first, but after auditioning it once, she fell in love with the song uncontrollably.
A form of music that hasn't existed before? So what! Deviant lyrics? So what! A work that the music industry won't accept? So what!
She just wants to sing! I just want to sing it to a lot of people, so that everyone knows, look, there is such a song! The song could have been like this!
It's not elegant, it's not classical, it's not standard, but it's good! It's really good!
Su Xiaoya's voice swirled in the auditorium and spread to every corner: "The brightest star in the night sky, can you remember the figure that once walked with me and disappeared into the wind?" ”
Su Yongming nodded slightly. There are many singers on the planet who have sung this song, and each singer has a different way of interpreting it and has a slightly different arrangement.
Su Xiaoya has studied arrangement, obviously she rearranged the music according to her own mind and understanding of the song, and she is also a cardinal in singing, which makes Su Yongming feel refreshed.
He couldn't say whether it was good or bad, but he felt that his ears were enjoying it now. The ethereal female voice seemed to be suppressing her enthusiasm and speaking as calmly as possible. This made Su Yongming can't help but guess, when she bursts out with all her enthusiasm, what kind of artistic conception will it be?
Su Yongming turned his head sideways and looked at Guo Qing. Guo Qing's brows are slightly frowned, but there is a smile on the corner of her mouth, such a contradictory expression may also represent her current state of mind: her ears are enjoying the song, but her head is rejecting this new form of music.
Su Yongming smiled slightly, and returned his attention to Su Xiaoya.
The singing gradually reached its climax.
"I pray for a transparent heart and eyes that shed tears! Give me the courage to believe again, and go beyond the lies to hug you! ”
"Whenever I can't find the meaning of existence, whenever I get lost in the night. Oh brightest star in the night sky, please guide me closer to you! ”
After this section broke out, Su Yongming found that he had forgotten to breathe. He looked left and right, and the previous discussion suddenly stopped at some point, and everyone had the same expression: their eyes were misty, their lips were slightly open, and the whole person was immersed in that different melody.
After a short pause, Su Xiaoya raised her breath and sang again, as if to tell the story: "The brightest star in the night sky, do you know where the figure that once walked with me is now?" Do you care if the brightest star in the night sky is waiting for the sun to rise, or if an accident comes first? ”
When she sang here, Su Yongming found that the people around her, including Guo Qing, all subconsciously took a deep breath, as if they were all waiting for that shocking outburst.
And the outbreak came as expected. "I'd rather keep all the pain in my heart than forget your eyes! Give me the courage to believe again, and go beyond the lies to hug you! Whenever I can't find the meaning of existence, whenever I get lost in the night, oh the brightest star in the night sky, please light me up! ”
When everyone breathed a sigh of relief and thought that the climax was over, it was another repeated climax. But the repetitive lyrics were sung by Su Xiaoya with a new feeling. The song slowed down, and at the end, the beginning of the lyrics was repeated, "Can you hear the brightest star in the night sky, the loneliness and sigh in the heart of the person who looks up?" ”
Hearing this sentence again, everyone's feelings are different. When they no longer listen with rejection and disgust, the things expressed in this lyric are presented in their hearts little by little.
The end of the song.
The first to come back to their senses were the students of the Modu University of the Arts, who applauded desperately, even disregarding etiquette: "It's so good!" "Let's sing one more song!" "Su Xiaoya, you are the best!"
Su Xiaoya took a few breaths before slowly calming down, and bowed to the audience with a flushed face: "Thank you, thank you!" I know you might think this song is weird, and both the lyrics and the tune are out of line. Thank you to the organizing committee for giving me the opportunity to perform on stage, I have already sung my heart, and it doesn't matter if I win or not. Music is free, and I believe that now, and I will continue to bring you songs like this regardless of whether I can move on to the next stage or not! Thank you! ”
With that, she turned around and faced the 30 judges next to the stage.
The 30 judges sit in three rows in a fan shape. Sitting in the front row, it is naturally the highest coffee seat. The few Su Xiaoya who were far away were a little unable to see clearly, but the judges in the front row all had unkind faces, and Su Xiaoya called it "bad" in her heart.
