460. Opening
The longer the wait, the more eager it became to see the show, so when the audience watched the 999-second countdown displayed on the big screens on the stage, the fans became more and more excited with the little reduced time.
And the result of the excitement is that I don't know who got the head. When the countdown was more than 800 seconds away, they began to shout along with the time, and it seemed that the fans were ready to follow the countdown until the concert began.
But to the surprise of fans, when they kept shouting, there were more than 500 seconds left. But I heard the sound of music. At first, it was just a faint electronic sound that appeared as a background sound, but immediately, the sound was pushed up.
And then came the classic three-part sound from "sqareone". Hearing this, fans didn't know that the concert had actually started.
There is no gorgeous opening MV picture, and there is no cool and handsome elevator appearance. The opening of Coldplay can be said to be simple and excessive, with five people standing in their respective positions, the lights off the stage, the stage backlight on, and then a chasing light hitting Martin, which is all the audience sees at the opening of the concert. But even so, it was enough to make the fans in the audience cheer loudly.
As the song progressed, watching Martin on stage shake his butt and talk about the accompaniment in the middle, the audience also danced and clapped along with the rhythm, it was obvious that even though the concert was just beginning, the audience's emotions had already begun to enter a climax.
Listening to the audience singing the classic three-part note aloud, Martin was also very excited on stage. It's not just Martin. The rest of Coldplay quickly got into the groove as well. Began to swing up.
There was no pause after sqareone. The classic prelude to "Politik" begins again, and what is surprising is that the end of these two songs can be connected without any gaps, and if it weren't for some differences in the styles of the two songs, people who haven't heard it may not even be able to notice that this is not the same song.
Speaking of which, Coldplay's songs are also in the rock category, but they are different from other rock bands. Their British-American alternative rock style is unique, just like this "Politik", it doesn't have the infectious power that makes people want to dance along, but it has a magic that can make people scream out all the boredom and grievances in their hearts.
So, when the song was sung to the chorus, accompanied by Martin's singing, the audience also roared out in the gap of each song, and the battle, if the Jamsil Stadium was covered, would be lifted.
Accompanied by the roars of the fans. I don't know when paper flowers began to float on the stadium, but at first there was only a little bit. But as time went on, paper flowers became more and more numerous. When the fans roared with Martin's singing for the third time, they found that before they knew it, paper flowers were already flying in the sky above the stadium.
"Wow, this opening is really wonderful." As a Korean diva-level singer Lee Hyo-ri, she has also held a lot of concerts, but when she saw the scene in front of her, she couldn't help but sigh.
In fact, paper flowers are nothing, this thing is not only commonly used in concerts, but also often used in football fields, baseball stadiums and other competitions, but the difference is that paper flowers are one of the best props to set off the atmosphere, and they are generally used in the finale, football, baseball, and in concerts, they are also used to push the atmosphere to the climax at the end.
But here, Fang Sihyuk, or Lee Jun-hyuk, used it as the opening show. And before the paper flower was released, it was used to start the countdown to cause the fans to cheer, and the signature low-key opening of Coldplay was used to set off, which immediately pushed the excitement of the fans to a new level.
"But it's really good to make the atmosphere so high at the beginning, although the song "Vivalavida" is really wonderful, but if there is no better arrangement than this, the atmosphere of the second half will fall." I don't know how to arrange it, but in the guest's seat, it happened to be Kim Jong Kook sitting next to Lee Hyori, so after hearing Lee Hyori's words, Kim Jong Kook said a little worriedly.
It's no wonder that he is worried, because the atmosphere in the stadium is too high now, and even these two kings and queens in South Korea, their concerts can only be compared to the atmosphere in front of them when they are at the climax of the normal conference.
"Ah, Jin Guozhong, what are you worried about, you don't know that kid Li Junhyuk, since he can put the paper flower in the front, there must be a big trick in the back for everyone to see." Although she said so, Lee Hyo-ri's heart was not as unconfident as she said, in fact, if she hadn't gotten a little bit of information from Kim Jung-hyun when she had dinner with Kim Jung-hyun a few days ago, she would have had a lot of worries about Lee Jun-hyuk's arrangement.
At the same time, Yin Zhiyuan, who was sitting on the other side of the guest seat, also sighed.
"Ah, Coldplay is so powerful, the atmosphere of our Crystal Boys' concert in its heyday may not be as good as the opening of others, this blow seems to be a bit big."
"Anyway, you've experienced such a scene, I'm miserable, even though I'm a rapper, but no matter what I think, it seems impossible to have such a big scene and such a warm atmosphere." Hearing Yin Zhiyuan's sigh, MC Meng also said that the tone was really indescribable envy.
"Dream, no matter what people say, they are world-class, let alone you, our whole country may not be able to find singers who are more popular than others, compared to them, you are purely uncomfortable for yourself, but I remember that they seem to be 4 people, why do they seem to be 5 people on stage." Sitting next to MC Meng, Jiang Hudong asked strangely.
As a supernumerary member of the stage with Coldplay, Lee Jun-hyuk did not tell the guests such as Jiang Hudong that on the stage, his position was also the back, and even the chasing light on the stage in front of him could not hit him, so that under the backlight on the stage, everyone saw only a figure of Lee Jun-hyuk, and they couldn't see him at all.
"There are indeed only 4 people in the Coldplay band, as for the extra figure on the stage, it may be that Lee Jun-hyuk invited him to help with the accompaniment, listening to the accompaniment of the two songs just now, this is not a thickness that only four people can make." Lee Seung-gi, who was sitting on the other side of Kang Hu-dong and was about to arrive at the beginning of the concert, replied.
After two songs, the countdown on the screen also went exactly to 0. In other words, Coldplay's 2008 New Year's Eve concert has officially begun.
"Hello everyone." This sentence Martin was said in Korean. Although the pronunciation is not very standard, it does not affect the excitement of the audience, so there is another cheer.
"Thank you all for coming to Coldplay's New Year's Eve concert." Originally, Martin also wanted to use Korean, but after studying for a long time, he couldn't remember it, so he had no choice but to change it back to English. But even so, the fans who are already high are not dissatisfied, and there is still a burst of cheers.
After saying two sentences, there were no other superfluous words to start a new round of singing. This time, there was a slight pause between the songs, and as soon as each song ended, as soon as the audience cheered down, the next one would start immediately. There is not too much interaction and communication, it is just singing one song after another. Let the audience have a good time listening to it first. That's Coldplay's style.
In fact, it can't be said that there is no interaction, in the middle of each song, or in the accompaniment or climax, Martin will also lead the audience to shout and clap along with the music.
《godputasmileuponyourgace》《speedofsound》《low》《warningsign》《everythingsnotlost》。 The audience may be familiar or unfamiliar with each other, some can hum along and some can't be named. But it doesn't matter, if you are familiar with it, you can interact with the music, and if you are not familiar with it, you can raise your hands and sway to the melody. In any case, not long after the concert began, many audience members began to feel satisfied that the trip was worthwhile. (To be continued......)
