Chapter 240: Five Hundred Miles from Home
I have to say that rock is definitely the kind of music that can best stir up the atmosphere of the scene.
Coupled with the blessing of the gray smoke band, the whole scene started singing from Chen Qiming, and the atmosphere of the scene suddenly became energetic.
Chen Qiming's melodious voice spread through the microphone to all directions, attracting the attention of all the audience.
Many fans can't help but close their eyes and listen to Chen Qiming's intoxicating voice in this rendered environment.
In addition, outside the square, countless passers-by were also attracted by the wonderful performances in the square and began to join the crowd one after another.
In just two songs, the number of audiences in the audience has increased from more than 5,000 to more than 6,000.
It can be said that the people who come to the mall around are basically attracted to it.
"Fack! I shouldn't have agreed with Warner Records! ”
In the mall building, seeing that the originally overcrowded shopping mall was attracted by the performance after the performance began, the general manager of the mall couldn't help but scold!
Because the location of Chen Qiming's performance happened to be close to this shopping mall, Warner Records came to the door and took away the right to use the big screen in the mall.
Originally, the mall manager thought that the star show could make all the people in the neighborhood gather in the mall and attract customers to the door.
However, Chen Qiming did attract customers to the door!
But at the same time, it also left all customers in the square, so that there was hardly a single figure in the mall.
This makes the general manager who wants to take advantage of the star effect want to cry without tears.
When the general manager of the shopping mall was scolding Chen Qiming for being too fierce and leaving all the audience in the square and not entering the mall.
In the square, reporters who were invited by Warner Records to cover the tour couldn't help but show expressions of amazement.
"I always thought that this Jamie Chen, who has recently made a lot of noise in the European and American music scenes, was just a showman, but I didn't expect his live performance to be so strong!"
"I kind of understand why this guy is called Michael of the East, his typhoon is really unforgettable.
Especially this sound!
OMG, I feel like I'm stopping to listen to him. ”
"These three songs are so good, it's no wonder they made it to the Billboard in a week.
This guy won't really become the first superstar with a huge influence in Europe and the United States! ”
When the reporters in the audience were busy filming and talking in a low voice, Chen Qiming on the stage had already finished singing all three English songs in turn.
According to the plan, he only sang three English songs on stage today, but this plan was completely disrupted after he sang three English songs.
When he finished singing and signaled to the audience that the tour was over, the audience immediately erupted in earth-shattering sounds.
"Encore! Encore! Encore ......"
The deafening sound resounded in the sky like thunder, making Chen Qiming's ears buzz.
It can be seen that the audience at the scene is completely high.
They are no longer satisfied with just listening to three songs.
Seeing this scene, Mike, the head of Warner Records, immediately ran to the stage, hoping that Chen Qiming could sing another song.
Because Chen Qiming currently only has three English songs, the person in charge of Warner directly said that Chen Qiming can sing any English song he can sing.
As for copyright issues, if it's not a Warner Records song, then Warner will call immediately to communicate.
Mike, the head of Warner, said so, and Chen Qiming himself really didn't want to live up to the audience who wanted to wear it, so Chen Qiming could only choose to continue to sing a song.
"Originally, I really wanted to bring you a song of my own creation, but I really didn't prepare for it today, so I will bring you a classic folk song that everyone is familiar with!
Classics forever, I hope you can like my version. ”
On stage, Chen Qiming took the microphone and whispered to the audience.
Hearing this, the audience immediately cheered, and screams mixed with applause to show their encouragement to Chen Qiming.
Amidst applause and screams, Chen Qiming asked people to move a stool up, adjust the microphone height, and then sit on it, "A classic ballad that I have adapted slightly, "Five Hundred Miles" is for everyone, its original song is "500 miles" by The Journeymen!" ”
After speaking, Chen Qiming no longer paid attention to the more enthusiastic screams of the audience, and with a flick of his fingers, a pleasant and beautiful guitar sound began to come out.
The song "500 miles" is the work of The Journeymen, an important representative of the American folk song movement in the 60s.
The song was released in 1961.
This song is not only one of the most classic ballads in Europe and the United States, but also the most covered song so far.
There is a Japanese version of 500 miles adapted by the Japanese rock song god Kiyoshiro Kino, which was sung by Takako Matsu and Kiyoshiro Kino himself.
And Chen Qiming's version of "Five Hundred Miles" is from a movie theme song called "Drunken Country Folk" in a dream.
The song is basically the same as the lyrics, but because of the different singers, it makes people feel like walking through the fields and countryside.
"If you missed the train I'm on
You will know that I am gone
You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles
……”
As soon as Chen Qiming spoke, the voice that was gentle enough to make people's ears pregnant immediately made the noise of the audience disappear.
So everyone paid attention to him, enjoying the baptism of the sound that seemed to come from the heart.
“OMG! This song has been sung by so many singers, and this is definitely the version that I have ever heard and surprised me the most! ”
"Oh my God! It's ...... sound, it's the best I've ever heard! ”
The reporters in the audience couldn't help but stop taking pictures at this moment.
A lot of people close their eyes like the general audience.
It was as if they had traveled through time and space with the singing at this moment, to the countryside of the sixties and seventies, strolling among the flowers, and the sound of a train horn sounding in their ears.
People who have left their hometowns feel a lot at this time, and they can't help but think of the face of their hometown in their minds.
At this moment, many people's eyes began to moisten at the corners of their eyes.
“You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles
You listen to the whistle that stretches for hundreds of miles fade away
You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles
You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles The whistle that stretches for hundreds of miles is just like my sigh! ”
As the last note fell, Chen Qiming sighed softly along with the music.
This sigh seems to be nostalgic for his hometown, and it seems to be longing for his old people in the distance.
In short, a thousand people have a thousand faces.
Different audiences experience different things at this moment.
But one thing is the same.
That is, he was amazed by the song "Five Hundred Miles" sung by Chen Qiming.
"Tianzhong Wizard, it's just a Tianzhong Genius, I seriously kissed him on the throat by an angel.
Only in this way can human beings have this flawless voice! ”
Some reporters couldn't help but exclaim.
He has been completely conquered by Chen Qiming's singing.
Not only him, but also other reporters and spectators on the scene.
"Encore! Encore! Encore ......"
Let Chen Qiming sing another song like thunder.
"Thank you! Thank you all for your support! But that's all for today's show!
I hope we'll see you at the next show! Thank you! ”
This time, Chen Qiming didn't pay attention to the encore sound in the audience, but began to pack up his things and leave the stage.
The audience and fans are a group of people who cannot be satisfied.
If Chen Qiming dares to continue singing, the fans will definitely accompany him to the end.
Chen Qiming didn't plan to sing here all night.
The space does not allow it, and neither does his time.
He'll have a radio interview with New York later.
We can't stay here any longer.
