Chapter 244: Bumblebee (2)

The soft music gradually began to sound, and several female musicians who accompanied the singing sang according to the requirements of the score, and hummed to the melody.

At this time, on the big TV screen directly above the stage of the second season of "Kamen Singer", the name of the song that Chen Mo was about to sing was also typed-

Scarborough Fair

Author: Based on the Scottish folk song "The-Elfin-Knight"

Singer: Bumblebee

……

Yes, Chen Mo sang in the debut of this second season of "Kamen Singer", and he chose the classic English song "Scarborough Market".

This "Scarborough Bazaar", because of the movie "Graduate" before Chen Mo crossed, was very popular with American students in the 60s of the 20th century, and then was loved by the Chinese people in the 80s.

The reason why "Scarborough Market", an ancient English folk song whose origin can be traced back to the Middle Ages, can travel from England to the United States is not because white Americans are direct descendants of white Britons, but because American singer Paul Simon studied in England and learned from British folk singer Martin Carthy (Martin. Cassie learned it, and Paul Simon adapted it and added an anti-war song he wrote, "The-Side-of-A-Hill," as the chorus and harmony of the song.

At that time, because World War II, which caused countless deaths, and the Korean War, which caused many American casualties, had ended, but the United States was mired in the Vietnam War, the mainstream thinking of ordinary Americans at that time was actually anti-war and ...... Liberation.

Well, the latter doesn't need to be mentioned, after all, it has little to do with the epochality of the songs that Chen Mo pays attention to.

But compared to the version in the movie, sung by Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel. Chen Mo prefers to listen to the version performed by Sarah Brightman, the goddess of moonlight.

To put it bluntly, it is actually Paul Simon and Arte Garfunkel's version of "Scarborough Bazaar", although it gives the song an anti-war element, and gives this old love song a more positive meaning and soul, but from the songwriting itself, it can only be regarded as a less successful attempt.

So Chen Mo sang "Scarborough Market". is also obviously imitating the version of the Moonlight Goddess, of course, he uses the lyrics of the original title song-

“Are-you-going-to-Scarborough-Fair?”

Chen Mo sang the first sentence of "Scarborough Bazaar".

Although under the cover of the bumblebee suit armed to the bottom of the footboard, no one could see Chen Mozhi's expression who was fully devoted to the song, but the extremely affectionate singing voice and poignant and tactful tune still made him capture the hearts of the audience at the first time.

"Wow-"

The special guest at the scene, the famous music critic Sima Bui, exclaimed, and made an exception when Chen Mo finished singing the first sentence, and applauded vigorously.

Sima Bui's applause led the audience to applaud and whistle.

“Parsley,sage,rosemary&thyme”

Chen Mo sang the second sentence unaffected.

"Although I don't understand what I'm singing at all. But...... Good! That's good! Hua Qianzi, the only female on-site guest in this issue, turned her head to look at the fake Chen Mo beside her after putting her hands to her mouth and shouting: "Uncle Lan Yan, translate for the translator, I know you must understand, but you only created an English song album not long ago!" ”

"Are you going to Scarborough Market? Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme、Say hello to one of the people there on my behalf。 She used to be the girl I really loved......"

That fake Chen Mo is really unambiguous. Even the two sentences that Chen Mo had already sang, he translated four sentences in one breath.

"It's worthy of Uncle Lanyan!"

Hua Qianzi looked at Chen Mo in her eyes. There is already a vague taste of worship.

"It's a great honor to receive Miss Hua's compliment. But in fact......" The fake Chen Mo smiled slightly, and then stretched out his hand to the bottom of the big screen on the stage: "I'm just reading the lyrics on that screen." ”

"Huh?! Oh, Uncle Lanyan, why didn't you remind me earlier, you actually made such a big mess in the family...... It's over, I don't have the face to host the show anymore. ”

Hua Qianzi's eyes widened and she sneered. It's as if she really didn't notice the screen above the stage, scrolling through the lyrics.

"It's okay Miss Hua, the flower looks like your little embarrassment will only make people more lovely. Okay, let's listen to the song first, and we'll talk about hosting the show later, okay? ”

Fake Chen Mo's mouth is like smearing honey. He grinned and reassured and drew his attention back to the stage.

At this time, Chen Mo's song "Scarborough Market" had already been sung more than halfway.

After completing the solo show, Hua Qianzi, who could finally calm down and continue listening to the song, actually listened carefully to a few words in this situation of listening to half of the song, and fell into Chen Mo's perfect interpretation of the song.

"Huh? Without? ”

So when Chen Mo finished singing, and the audience burst into applause, Hua Qianzi, who realized it later, reacted slowly and half a beat?

This reaction was cute enough because of his true temperament, which provoked several other special guests to laugh good-naturedly, and counted the most unscrupulous of the fake Chen Moxiao, who actually made Hua Qianzi smile and blushed.

"Okay guys, please don't embarrass us anymore, being attracted by beautiful songs is something that no saint is immune to, otherwise there will be no allusion to the smell of meat in March...... Well, please turn your attention to the stage again, otherwise it will be difficult for me as a host to do, and I will not be deducted from my salary because of the failure of the host, right? ”

The host Liang Liang has returned to the stage and used a talk show to help Hua Qianzi please save the embarrassment, and after achieving the goal of letting everyone move their eyes back to the stage, he invited Feng Ming Yuyi, who was in the same group as Chen Mo, back to the center of the stage.

"Okay, I won't repeat the process. Five, which of you will come first this time? ”

Standing between Feng Ming Yuyi and Chen Mo, the host Liang Liang once again set his sights on the special guest seat.

No doubt. The host Liang Liang said who came first, just asking who came first to comment and vote, and there was absolutely no other meaning.

The five specially invited Jia Bing have already had the experience of commenting and voting twice before, and they will not have problems in this link, and after the five of them humbled each other, they finally elected the fake Chen Mo to come first. The reason is that he knows English songs the best of the five.

"Hmm...... Then I'll talk about the song of the feather coat first, the whole process is sung by falsetto, it really makes people can't guess who she is, the original "Ni Dress" is even more to give people a sense of dreaming back to the Tang Dynasty, it is an excellent song, I personally like this song - and like the beautiful dress of the feather coat, the same kind of like, so I have reason to believe that under the mask of the feather coat, there must be a big beauty......"

Fake Chen Mo first commented on Feng Ming's feather coat, this product is really fat enough!

"Ahem. And then there's the bumblebee, and to be honest, I didn't guess where the bumblebee was and what it was...... Can you understand what I'm saying? ”

Fake Chen Mo tried to determine Chen Mo's nationality.

"Yes."

Chen Mo cherishes words like gold, and once again changes to that kind of stiff foreign accent, which makes people not feel that he is a Chinese singer at all.

"Then let me ask you a question, are you British?"

Fake Chen Mo asked again.

"It's not."

Chen Mo once again cherished words like gold, and replied bluntly.

"You're not British, so what nationality are you?"

Fake Chen Mo asked a follow-up question.

"Your, the question. Too much (liao). ”

Chen Mo rolled his eyes, too lazy to continue to make a fool of himself with his Xibei. After all, this feeling of being in dialogue with himself really made him feel a little weird in his heart.

"Uh...... I was disgusted......"

Chen Mo's unexpected answer made the fake Chen Mo choke and roll his eyes on the spot.

"Hahaha-"

Several other special guests laughed happily without scruples, and this time it was You Shu Qianzi's happiest smile.

Be careful and vindictive.,It's obvious to show it in girls, especially beautiful girls.。 No one is embarrassed to say anything.

"Okay, Uncle Lan Yan, it's time to tell everyone your choice, who will you vote for?"

The host Liang Liang spoke out at the right time.

"Okay, okay, my choice is-" Fake Chen Mo touched his nose, and then said, "I choose to vote for ...... Bumblebee. The reason is. Although I was disgusted by him, I really don't dislike his songs, so I can only say sorry to Yuyi, you sing very, very well, and I actually like your songs and your people! ”

Damn, you're wearing my skin again, and you're daring to flirt with girls in public!

This time it was Chen Mo's turn to roll his eyes in a choked manner, but because of the cover of the bumblebee mask, no one could see his depressed expression.

"Okay, Bumblebee gets a vote, so what's next...... Chimura, what is your choice? ”

After Feng Ming thanked him, Liang Liang, the host who found that Bumblebee didn't seem to be going to do anything, hurriedly said again.

"I also decided to vote for Bumblebee because his song is so different from his image, so I was curious and wanted to hear his next song. So...... I'm sorry, Yu Yi, just like Uncle Lan Yan said, you actually sing very well! ”

Hua Qianzi also chose to vote for Bumblebee.

"Where's Xiao Hao?"

The host Liang Liang turned his attention to the third special guest, Qian Xiaohao.

"I will vote for Fengming Yuyi, the song that Bumblebee sang just now, that bazaar, although the melody is very beautiful and beautiful, but because of my personal tendency, I prefer Yuyi's "Ni Dress".

Qian Xiaohao was very neat, so he voted for Feng Ming Yuyi.

"2:1, what about the choice of the house director?"

The host Liang Liang looked at Fang Xiangdong, the fourth guest of independent musician and TV drama director.

"Bumblebee."

Fang Xiangdong didn't seem to like to talk much, so he directly reported the choice, but he didn't even have a reason why he chose it.

In the end, it was the turn of the music critic Sima Bray: "I chose Fengming Feather Coat, because so far, her "Neon Dress" can give me more psychological resonance, maybe after figuring out the past and present life of "Scarborough Market", I will be more inclined to this beautiful tune adapted from foreign folk songs, but it is a pity that this trend has changed...... Not now. ”

Sima Bui is a music critic after all, and the reasons he gives are clearly very characteristic of his profession.

As a result, the voting result of the guests on the scene was 3:2, with 3 votes for Bumblebee and 2 votes for Ni Dress and Feather Coat.

"Ladies and gentlemen, it's time for you to make your choice, please pick up your voting machine again and choose the singer who advances to the next round of the show from among the two singers with their own strengths around me!"

The host Liang Liang let the show enter the next link.

Knock knock

Several snare drums in the live band set off a gripping drum beat to set the tension and act as a voting time tool along the way.

When the drum beat with a sense of urgency stopped, the on-site voting that had been upgraded to an electronic voting machine ended at the same time.

"Ah, it's another voting result with a close score, 146:149......" Because it was an electronic vote, while the drums stopped, the host Liang Liang had already gotten the result of the vote: "So who is the masked singer who won this group and advanced to the next round?" Who the hell is he?! ”

There is no doubt that the host Liang Liang's sale here is a "hook" specially left for the purpose of inserting advertisements when the program is officially broadcast.

At this recording site, after saying the words that caused suspense, the host Liang Liang quickly announced the result: "He is - Feng, Ming, Yu, Yi!" Let's use warm applause to congratulate Fengming Yuyi on the promotion! ”

Warm applause rang out.

"How so?!"

At the back of the stage, Wen Nuannuan, who was nervously waiting for the voting results, when she heard this final answer, her hands, which had clenched her fists and raised them to her chest because of nervousness, shook violently in an instant.

"I mispronounced the name, the host must have mispronounced the name!"

Wen Nuannuan didn't believe in this result either, in her mind, it should be Chen Mo who won the promotion without suspense, so she instinctively tried to reject the fact that Chen Mo was actually eliminated, and he was eliminated in the first round.

If you want to say that the mentality is the most calm, I am afraid it can only be Chen Mo, although this final result is also a little beyond Chen Mo's expectations - after all, since he came to participate in this show, Chen Mo must also want to win.

But after hearing the results, Chen Mo was just stunned, and calmly accepted the fact that he lost the debut of the second season of the show.

Feng Ming Yuyi, singing is indeed very good, coupled with the geographical advantage and harmony, it is quite normal to win Chen Mo, a "foreigner", by a small score, isn't it.

Moreover, according to the competition system of this season, as long as you don't score the lowest in the first round of this episode, you will be able to come back in the next episode!

Therefore, although Chen Mo was a little disappointed, after being disappointed in an instant, he ignited a stronger fighting spirit.

Oh, it seems that our performance is not perfect enough, so the next episode of the show ...... I'm going to be indisputable and beautiful to win it back! (To be continued.) )
