Chapter 210 Bang bang bang bang bang!
"? What is this?"
"It seems to be Italian?"
"Prayers?!"
"Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come..."
"This song seems unusual! I'm afraid it's more than just insults!"
The cello sounded and the soprano seemed to come from a distance.
Ah~ah~ah~ah~ah~
The rhythm gradually increases and the music begins to get on track.
【jump~jump~jump~】
"How long?"
"One and a half minutes!"
"The song's intro is one and a half minutes long? That's crazy, right?"
Who in the entertainment industry dares to do this? You spent so much time setting up the song in the first minute and a half. If it were someone else, they would have cut the song long ago.
But you're Iron Man, so just ignore what I said!
As the sacred prayers were being recited, the audience gradually immersed themselves in it, as if they were in a medieval cathedral. Instead of feeling it was lengthy, they became more anticipating it.
"What's this song about? Why is it such a big deal?"
"It's an orchestral piece this time, not a Chinese style one?"
Finally, Gou Minghua spoke on the stage.
【
The cool morning dew wets the black dress
The stone road is foggy and my father is whispering
Helpless realization can only be more cruel...
】
Gou Minghua's voice was low and hoarse, as if he was telling a distant story.
The audience stared at the lyrics and felt the atmosphere of the song.
“What a powerful visual experience!”
"It's a vivid image. It's the morning before the sun rises, with dew still covering the surrounding plants. I walk along the cobblestone road and pray in the church, asking God for forgiveness."
"The temple? The bullet? What's the story here?"
With just a short melody and a few lyrics, the atmosphere is set to a 100% degree, but the theme of the song is still not revealed.
【
We are all guilty
Committing different crimes
I can decide who is right
The dispute cannot be resolved
......
】
"crime?"
"It's similar to the style of 'Night's Seventh Chapter'! Dark style!"
“But the content is so different!”
"What exactly was forgiven?"
【
Merciful Father, I have fallen
The kingdom of sin is invisible
Please forgive my arrogance~
】
The background opera voice and orchestral music never stop, full of exotic atmosphere.
"Merciful Father? Is it Father? Sin?"
Everyone was immersed in the song, looking for clues and answers.
The more Pan Yunnan listened, the more he felt something was wrong. He clenched his fists, straightened his back, and stared at the person on the stage.
【
Behind the glory is a loneliness
ayayayacheckitcheckitaya~
】
The rhythm suddenly stops in the middle and the song and piano sound start.
Sudden!
【Bang, bang, bang, bang! 】
“!!!”
"Is that a gunshot?!"
"Five gunshots!"
"Can a song be written like this? Is this for a movie?"
The violent gunshots seemed to tear open a hole in the plot.
"Gangster?"
"Is this a gang?!"
Immediately afterwards, Gou Minghua's rap began to intertwine.
The rap and chorus overlap, creating a gradually stronger sense of layering.
【
My father held my hands
Walk gently
The quiet cobblestone road in the early morning
】
The female opera singer ended first, and Gou Minghua's last whisper [I slowly fell asleep, the day had just broken~] gave people countless fantasies.
In the quiet atmosphere, Li Yu looked at the current ratings, 5.89%!
Let’s take a look at the number of people watching online, which exceeds 20 million.
A uniform exclamation mark on the screen!
Until the host said, "Thank you for the performance of our dog brother!"
Everyone finally came to their senses and burst into cheers and screams!
“I don’t even know how to comment!”
"Isn't this arrangement top-notch?!"
"This word, this word... I'm not good at speaking, all I can say is fuck!"
"I felt like I was watching a movie. Is this the level of songwriting you can achieve?"
Zhou Huan looked at the young man on the stage in surprise and swallowed.
"In the name of the Father, the Father can be a father, a priest or a godfather."
"It's a gangster movie, right?"
"Yes."
Pan Yunnan's heart was finally at peace, because West Coast rap, a major genre of European and American rap, has the most mainstream themes of gangs and murders.
But it was so filled with harmony elements that it couldn't be shown on television.
And this...purified version of the showmanship showed him off.
When he heard the gunshot, he roughly understood what Gou Minghua was singing.
"Let's talk about the arrangement first. I would call it the originator of the Chinese Gothic style. It can be said to be at least 10 years ahead of the current ones. If you don't believe me, listen to it again in ten or twenty years. You will find that many works are not even one-tenth as good as it."
"This is a textbook-level virtuoso performance! The arrangement is absolutely the pinnacle of Chinese music!"
These words were quite harsh, but many people at the scene kept nodding in agreement.
"The most exciting part is the prayer and opera in the first part, which sets the mood and tone. The atmosphere of this song depends largely on the blending and transitioning of various elements."
"Then there are the five gunshots in the middle, which really bring out the story. It's like watching a Western gangster movie, not just a song."
“In the last part, the rap and the chorus interweave, as if the plot and story are clashing, leading directly to the climax!”
"As for the lyrics, although there aren't many details, they are the finishing touches that bring each scene to life, such as the morning dew, the black dress, the organ, the cobblestone road... It tells a story of sin and redemption."
"In the end, your singing wasn't as bold and dramatic as before. Instead, you sang with a domineering air and a restrained and restrained style, which is exactly what this song should have. You knew how to hold back, and the emotions were spot on!"
"I believe this will definitely become your masterpiece!"
Zhou Huan was generous with his praise and used extremely unrestrained words, but he received cheers and recognition from those present.
"What Teacher Zhou Huan said is exactly what I wanted to say: a masterpiece! A god-level live performance!"
"They've all finished talking. All I can say is that Gou Ge wore his suit right today. He looks so handsome!"
Che Xintong's comment made everyone laugh.
There was only one person at the scene who couldn't laugh.
Pan Yunnan was now covered in cold sweat. It was his turn soon, but he found that he didn't have any useful cards in front of Gou Minghua.
He played a pair of 8s and his opponent had a pair of 9s.
When he throws a bomb, the other side is like a pair of ghosts, always pressing down on him.
He can do what you can do, and he can also do what you can’t do, and he can do it in a new way!
Now he finally understood why he always felt that Gou Minghua's songs were unconventional?
It's not that I'm afraid of you, it's that they have too many cards and don't know which one to play.
The panic was unprecedented. Seeing that he was not in good shape, his agent hurried to comfort him.
"It's okay, all you have to do now is finish the song!"
"Now, we welcome the final contestant—Pan Yunan!"
He encouraged himself, forced himself to concentrate and started the performance.
This song "Star" is his ultimate weapon. Both style and content are his strengths, but it seems so mediocre compared to the stunning "In the Name of the Father".
Although the performance was not bad, it was far from the previous high spirits.
The enemy's artillery fire was too intense, and Pan Yunnan could no longer hold on!
Li Yu looked at the rapidly rising ratings and the skyrocketing votes on the screen.
Sighed "God has fallen..."
By 10:00 p.m. after the competition ended, the program's ratings officially exceeded 6.
Thanks to the previous topics and popularity, it set a record for variety show ratings this year.
6.13%!
