200.The Girl and the Rock (End)
Suddenly, as if the heart of the blessed soul was to the end, Jiang Yu snorted, forcibly dissolving the suddenly delicate atmosphere, and said in his mouth, "It just so happens that Xiao Wei's teaching is over, let's go and try it in the ensemble, right?" Holding the guitar, he walked straight to the studio.
Several girls in the light voice department looked at each other a few times, although they may have guessed in their hearts that this was Jiang Yu's intention, but the girls who still couldn't hold back their shame on this kind of topic chose to end the topic with Jiang Yu's words.
And the only one who seemed to want to say something, Tanai Nakaritsu, was gagged in advance by Mio Akiyama, causing him to only be able to emit some meaningless syllables from his throat, and was finally dragged into the recording studio by Miss Kotofuki, who was a single soldier with explosive combat effectiveness.
Jiang Yu, who was the first to walk in, had already begun to carry the drum kit and electronic organ that had been put aside before. Seeing this, the four of them also hurriedly stepped forward to help.
After getting ready, Jiang Yu's white and slender fingers gently pressed on the six strings of the guitar, and waited for a moment before realizing that the four girls were all looking at him. So he raised his eyebrows and said with a light smile: "Xiao Lu is the captain, right?" Just give the orders as you usually play. ”
Ritsu Tanaka is indispensable, and the other three girls are obviously more familiar with Ritsu, who is the captain of the team on weekdays, to direct the band and start playing.
Therefore, with the crisp sound of the three drum sticks colliding, Yui Hirasawa took the lead in playing the baby guitar she named "Jita" as if she were tightening the strings.
So what appeared in the ears of Chinatsu, who put on the headphones again, was the prelude that she had listened to for almost half a morning and was very familiar.
On the other hand, although they had achieved their goal today, the Muses were not in a hurry to leave immediately. On the one hand, a few people led by Takasaka Honogo were very curious about what Jiang Yu and the others were going to do; On the other hand, it's because of the small complicated thoughts in the hearts of Nanqin Pear and Nishikino Mahime.
It is said that it is a complicated mind, but in fact, it is easy to understand if you break it down and examine it carefully. First, because the two of them had seen Jiang Yu's piano level before, they naturally couldn't avoid their curiosity about the teenager who suddenly took the guitar and seemed to play it well (after the song was recorded, the muses did not immediately disturb the light music department who was still in the teaching process); Second, it's a little girl's feelings that can't be seen through.
Therefore, after the performance in the studio began, several girls looked at each other, and after consulting Mahime's opinion, they also learned the same as Chinatsu Kotofuki, picked up the headphones placed on the console, and put them on their heads.
seems to be a coincidence, when the muses put on the headphones, Jiang Yu happened to start singing the first lyrics.
"I want to be a butterfly
Fly high with the breeze
……”
As a result, several girls were instantly sunk by this passionate music style and Qingyue's singing. In particular, Mahime Nishikino, who is the best at singing among several people, immediately widened her eyes. Let's not talk about the quality of the song, just this way of singing has already surprised the girl who knows something about vocal music.
Qinfu Qianxia was also surprised. It's not because of Jiang Yu's singing style, she was just surprised by the skillful cooperation between several people. Obviously, the last time before the lunch break, they didn't necessarily have such a skill, but now it's just a meal and a little bit of communication, and it's completely impossible to see that this is a band that has only really seen each other since this morning.
Jiang Yu in the recording studio naturally didn't know the surprised looks of everyone outside, and all his attention was already focused on the guitar and singing that straddled him.
Especially in the singing section, this song can only be considered a complete mastery after receiving the music theory knowledge of the predecessor and the basic vocal teaching of Qinfu Qianxia, but Jiang Yu does not dare to be sloppy at all.
After all, compared to other people who simply think that this song is excellent or good, the meaning of this song to Jiang Yu is completely different.
Every time the familiar and passionate prelude sounded, Jiang Yu's mind would almost instinctively conjure up the scenes of those children who could be said to be the memories of an era, spinning and falling into the blue sky. Or, after watching the whole anime on and off on TV, I still begged my parents, insisted on buying back the full set of discs from the video store, and walked happily on the way home from my childhood self.
He even remembered that it was the height of summer, with the freshly paved stone road under his feet, the cacophony of cicadas in his ears, and the asphalt road or the usual rough and uneven road, still slightly steaming. In front of my eyes, the light was slightly distorted by the scorching sunlight, and in my arms was a disc box with the air-conditioned air of a video store......
Therefore, he needs to be a little more focused, a little more attentive, and a little more committed to live up to this song full of his childhood memories.
Otherwise, it is inevitable that there will be a suspicion of insulting the classics.
This song in the previous life was sung by the famous singer Koji Wada, who was born in Fukuchiyama City, Kyoto Prefecture, on the island country, and it was also widely circulated among many teenagers as the OP of the popular "Digimon".
To be honest, before this, Koji Wada was not a well-known singer. It was after singing this song "Butter-Fly" that he became popular and made his official debut.
Therefore, it can also be said that this is the song that changed his fate. For Koji Wada, even if he later suffered from cancer, he would drag his hoarse throat and sing on stage again after the fifteenth anniversary of the animation's broadcast.
The familiar prelude and the clear voice that is no longer high and clear make people cry.
This talented singer did not come from a musical family, and he did not have musical training in high school. It was only because I heard my friend's performance that I was deeply fascinated by it, and then the idea of making music also rose.
After graduating from high school, Koji Wada first joined an electrical equipment company as a salesperson, but quit a few months later and returned to his hometown. In the days that followed, he worked and saved money while reflecting. A year later, at the age of 19, he went to Tokyo alone with 400,000 yen and his own musical dreams.
Unfamiliar and unaccompanied, he stayed in a narrow but cheap capsule hotel for two weeks before finding a rental apartment.
Later, he saw the news in the magazine that a studio was looking for a staff member, but he wanted to be an actor. During this time, he did quite a few extras for TV series and movies, and even period dramas. However, to put it bluntly, it is a very different life from those who run tricks in Hengdian, and boring is secondary, mainly because people can't see the slightest hope about the future and his music dreams.
Soon, Koji Wada got tired of this life, and at the same time developed homesickness and wanted to go home.
Only after wandering abroad can I know the preciousness of home and the greatness of my parents. No matter how much wind, frost, rain and snow you have experienced, even if you can't even gain a foothold in the world, there is only a peaceful haven that will gently accept you at all times.
Koji Wada, who always swears to mix things up when talking to his father on the phone on weekdays, mentioned the idea of "going home" to his father for the first time.
However, his father, who had always said that he could come home at any time, said to him for the first time, "Do you give up like this?" Try harder! ”
Koji Wada was deeply moved, and since then he has not given up easily, and has worked hard for his dream in Tokyo. After becoming famous, in the face of an interview, he recalled that this was a sentence that determined the fate of his life. If it weren't for this sentence, there would be no Koji Wada who sings today.
Since then, Koji Wada has set his sights on the path of music. At the same time, he quit his job as an actor, which in his opinion did not help his development, and left the office. He has formed bands and held live broadcasts, sending his music to various music studios, companies, record stores, and sometimes even 100 copies at a time.
However, the dream is called a dream precisely because it hangs high in a place that mortals can't touch, and the road to it is also full of thorns and mud. All his attempts were in vain, and he didn't even make a splash.
However, after a series of failures, perhaps the path to perfection, Hiroyuki Kakumono (the production director of Digimon) approached him and asked him to create a song that expressed the feeling of his first encounter with Digimon and his hope to meet again.
After many meetings and consultations with the other party, and repeated revisions, Koji Wada finally came up with his debut work, which is later known as "butter-fly".
Ten years of sharpening a sword, the frost blade has not been tried.
All the words like passion, dreams, perseverance, and concentration are all injected into this song.
Like all traditional inspirational stories, Koji Wada became famous because of this song and made his debut. After experiencing many things later, he became the familiar "Uncle Guang".
Koji Wada, who started in the end of the world, finally became a well-known musician through his own efforts and perseverance, and achieved his original dream.
However, the remnant is that later, because of throat cancer, Koji Wada has always been in a semi-retired state, and his take-off career naturally fell into the dust. In the end, he even died of illness, which became the biggest regret in the hearts of thousands of fans.
In the cruel entertainment industry, such a popular singer is like a carp crossing the river, just like a meteor in the sky (berry, look, it's a meteor~), gorgeous and fleeting.
In the end, all that remains are songs that have endured and memories that will eventually fade in people's minds.
Jiang Yu sang very carefully - he didn't want to shame the song. Then, coinciding with the first chorus:
"Behind the dream that stretches infinitely
Travel through a cold and unforgiving world
I don't want to lose to myself
Having good memories of you will make me work harder
Believe that love never ends
Even if you run into a problem once in a while
It will definitely save the day
On My Love
……”
followed by the melody of the lead guitarist solo, Jiang Yu gasped slightly, glanced at Yui Hirasawa, who was playing extremely seriously but happily beside him, and nodded secretly.
From the beginning to the present, the girl's performance has been impeccable, and if Jiang Yu evaluates, even if he asks him to do it himself, he can't do it better.
As for Chinatsu Kotofuki and the six muses in the control room, they looked at the excessively young but unusually professional band formed by the five high school students in the soundproof room with surprised faces.
The former was surprised by the lyrics, whether it was this version or the previous version of the slow tempo solo piano, it can be regarded as the word "classic". Although she doesn't know why Jiang Yu shows that tone that seems to have a sense of nostalgia when she sings, she is not a songwriter, and she can only attribute these things to Jiang Yu, who is a songwriter and singer, and has extraordinary feelings for this song.
And the reason for the latter's surprise is obvious. Whether it was Nishikino Mahime and Nanqin Li, who knew Jiang Yu first, or Takasaka Honoka, who knew him later, and others, they had never heard Jiang Yu sing songs in public.
Now he was suddenly thrown in the face by the other party with a classic piece of music, and he didn't fall behind in singing, and he didn't give people a bad impression of "not worthy of this song".
People who are relatively familiar with Jiang Yu such as Takasaka Honogo were surprised and admired the musical talent of his fan group leader (who did not admit it). Koizumi Huayang and Starry Sky Rin also looked at Jiang Yu who was singing meticulously in the soundproof room with admiration, especially the former, his eyes were shining, just like a little fan girl who suddenly saw an idol in reality.
The only exception may be the most musical literacy among the muses. The red-haired girl first showed the same surprise as the people around her, and then the expression was full of bitterness and complexity. Biting her lips, a trace of confusion flashed on the girl's face. She was extremely proud in her heart, but she was once again hit by the boy in front of her.
Even the passionate music in her ears seemed to be getting farther and farther away from her, and just when the girl was confused and at a loss, a warm hand put on the girl's shoulder.
Nishikino Mahime woke up like a dream, judging from the initial position, the person in that direction was - Kotobuki Chixia.
found that his proud disciple (although she was only the other party's enlightenment teacher) was in a trance, and the expression on his face softened rarely, and he said in a flat tone: "Are you going to give up?" ”
Maki Nishikino was wearing headphones, but that didn't stop her from understanding what the other person meant.
Biting her lip tightly, the red-haired girl shook her head stubbornly under the gaze of her teacher.
If she gave up because of this, she would be sorry for the teacher who let her embark on the path of music, and sorry for Jiang Yu who woke her up through a tune.
Meantime...... There's no way to stand by each other's side calmly......
This last thought, the girl never mentioned to anyone.
