Chapter 141: Someone Like Me
The sudden situation made everyone feel a little emotional.
"Life is not easy!" He Changping sighed.
Yin Du felt that this topic was a bit heavy, so he turned his head to look at Yu Hai: "I heard you say that there are still a lot of songs to sing to fans, how about it?" Now for a song, shall we? ”
Yu Hai thought about it, nodded, and turned around to pick up the guitar.
So everyone looked at him expectantly.
Yu Hai plucked the strings a few times, held them down, and said: "This song is called "People Like Me", and it is given to those who are busy working as workers. ”
In the soft melody of the guitar, Yu Hai lowered his voice, giving people a sense of vicissitudes for no reason:
"Someone as good as me"
"I should have lived a brilliant life"
"How did it end up in more than 20 years?"
"Still floating in the sea of people"
In the town not far from the mushroom house, after Yu Hai and the others left, Guo Xiaoyue took out her mobile phone and opened the longing live broadcast room and began to watch.
At this time, I suddenly heard the whale falling singing, and when I heard such lyrics, my heart was mixed and complicated.
The lyrics of this song are like her inner monologue about herself.
When she was young, she always thought that she was different, smart and excellent, and destined for a brilliant future.
However, when she grew up, she painfully realized that she was just an inconspicuous one in the sea of people, with no extraordinary ability, but she was unwilling to work too hard.
She was also very unwilling, dreaming back at midnight, always depressed and tangled in her heart, but she woke up the next day, and still repeated everything the day before.
Looking at the dazzling whale fall on the screen, Guo Xiaoyue really couldn't imagine that he would write such a song.
In fact, before that, she could actually only be regarded as a passer-by fan of whale fall.
She liked all the songs released before Whale Fall, and occasionally paid attention to his news, but she didn't go out of her way to find his information, let alone join the fan base or anything.
She followed the crowd and called the whale to His Highness, but she was not obsessed with this person.
She is really a typical member of the general public, who will have a good impression of a certain star, but will not spend time and money chasing it.
To this day, she confronts this aura-shrouded superstar, and her sense of admiration increases dramatically because of his charm.
Listening to the song Whale Fall at this time, she was really touched.
"Lost people like me"
"Someone like me looking for"
"A man like me who does nothing"
"How many more people have you met?"
Guo Xiaoyue sincerely admires the talent of Whale Fall.
He really seems to be a passer-by in this glitzy world, watching their sufferings and struggles, pitying for their sad plight, and then soothing people's hearts with songs.
As the lyrics say, she really feels that she is approaching the age of thirty, still doing nothing, the future is confused, and she is looking for a way.
I always want to live the life I want, but after working hard, I find that my ability is limited.
The gap between reality and expectations was too great, and she felt a deep sense of powerlessness.
Are there many people like her in the world?
Suddenly, I felt that all my self-seeking troubles and all my efforts were understood.
"A vulgar man like me"
"Never like to pretend to be deep"
"How do you occasionally hear oldies?"
"Suddenly I shook my head"
Many people in the live broadcast room listened to the lyrics of this song, and their expressions were also a little trance-like.
In the subway car of a certain city, I don't know who it is, and the voice is played outside when I watch the live broadcast.
Yu Hai's magnetic voice echoed in the crowd of people who were sitting or standing, but no one stood to accuse the noise.
Many people unconsciously take their attention off their phones and listen intently.
Their eyes widened, and their thoughts drifted away.
It seems that when I actually listen to some old songs occasionally, I will suddenly be hit in the heart and my eyes will be red.
Oh, yes! Why do I have a time when I am so vulgar?
When laughing at the sentimentality of those young people, why is there a trace of envy in his heart?
envy that they can vent their emotions for such a trivial matter, and they have to work hard to hide their laughter and scolding.
When you grow up, you can no longer be willful.
This lyric is so heart-wrenching!
"A coward like me"
"Leave a little bit for everything"
"Who will it be?"
"I've thought about going out of my way"
Don't dare to talk about dreams, is it the cowardice of most people?
Be cautious and cautious in getting along with others, afraid of offending people, afraid of regrets, afraid of giving no return.
However, after all, deep down in our hearts, there is still a piece of reverse scale.
Have you ever fought for anyone?
Both, right?
In the subway car, in the eloquent singing, a man standing with his back to the door is eating a loaf of bread, he is listening to the song, chewing the food in his mouth, I don't know why, tears suddenly fell one by one.
He hurriedly reached out and wiped it off, and stuffed the bread into his mouth with a gulp, chewing it as hard as if he were going to chew all the sadness and swallow it.
Inside the carriage, most of the people were silent in their emotions, and no one laughed at him.
One of the buddies on the side seemed to want to reach out and pat him on the shoulder, but eventually withdrew it.
"A lonely man like me"
"Someone as stupid as me"
"People like me who are not willing to be ordinary"
"How many people are there in the world"
In the vast number of living beings, after all, there are many people.
When I was young, I fantasized that I was the protagonist, but now I live as a passerby.
What makes us where we are today?
However, deep down in my heart, I still want to struggle, and I still want to struggle in the midnight dream, telling myself to work hard, but I always give up in the blink of an eye.
In the final analysis, it's just self-torture, right?
Look around, it turns out! We're all the same! The same loneliness, the same stupidity, the same uniqueness but not much different.
"Inexplicable people like me"
"Will anyone feel distressed?"
Yu Hai put down the guitar, and Guo Xiaoyue in front of the screen let out a long breath of turbidity.
She didn't know why, but she was suddenly relieved.
All the suppressed pain, all the powerlessness of this time were suddenly relieved.
Yu Hai's previous conversation with her pulled her back from the edge of the cliff, and this song made her understand herself and herself.
In the process of listening to this song, she continued to analyze herself and recognize herself, and she was such a person. There is no extreme intelligence, no amazing talent, and limited ability.
So, it's good to be an ordinary person.
Maybe in the future, I will be able to meet another ordinary person, snuggling up to each other and feeling sorry for each other.
In the mushroom house, the Ye family brothers and sisters were still ignorant, but the four middle-aged people who listened to the song were extremely touched.
Although they are also successful in this circle, they do not have as much helplessness and unwillingness as the general public, but over the years, there have been a period of depression.
Ordinary and ordinary have always been the words they fear the most.
They fight against everyone all the time, so they have a different feeling from the audience outside the live broadcast room.
This song, everyone can listen to it, and they can listen to themselves.
Whale Fall is really a person who is good at observing life, and he is also a person who can record life and summarize life.
For many, the lyrics of the song are as chilling as knives.
The tip of the knife pierces the most fragile points of the human heart everywhere, and the bitterness in the hearts of ordinary people is all sung by this song.
This makes people have to admire his acumen, at a young age, but he has a perception that ordinary people do not have.
Terrific.
Outside the live broadcast room, young people don't have any feelings about this song.
However, the social animals feel that the lyrics of the song Whale Fall are heart-wrenching.
Especially today is Sunday, the barrage is rolling wildly, and they seem to be about to eject all the sentimentality in their hearts:
"Vulgar, cowardly, confused, lonely, inactive, who is this? This is me! ”
"Thank you for your efforts today."
"It's going to be fine, it's going to be fine, woo woo woo ......"
"Come on stranger! Come on myself, too! ”
"I'm afraid that my life will be over, and I will still do nothing!"
"We are all born in the ordinary, but we are not willing to be ordinary"
“……”
The subway train arrives at the station, and the song is over, and the subway also arrives.
Someone got out of the car, someone got in the car, as always, there was no difference.
It's just that some people's hearts have a little turmoil, but if you don't talk for a long time, it will calm down.
Today's live broadcast ended not long after the song ended in the sea, and the first recording of the week-long life came to an end temporarily.
However, Yu Hai's song today doesn't know how many people tossed and turned.
Music critic Sunflower Seed Ren posted such a music review in the early morning:
In this era of competition who can be more successful, who is more powerful, and who can be more unusual.
We are afraid of the ordinary, we hate cowardice, we are not firm enough in our criticism, and we despise failure.
Worldly recognition is like a shackle that traps us in the social ladder of involution, struggling to get out.
The unwillingness in my heart will always jump out from time to time, tearing up the peaceful and waveless life.
We're at a loss,
Only the whale will sit down and tell us like an old friend that we are all the same people.
He used his unique charming magnetic voice to give a big hug to us who were arrogant, cowardly, ordinary, and struggling to the point of dying in pain.
At this point, there is solace in my heart.
Thank you, Whale Fall.
