Chapter 391 The Moon Without Stars
Seeing Zheng Dongren's constipated expression, the audience burst into laughter. Everyone found that the four musicians of Antenna were very interesting. Except for Yoo Hee-yeol, the other three were not familiar to the general public. Although Zheng Xiuheng is still a little popular now, and is considered a radio celebrity and a famous person on the Internet, not many people really know him or have met him. This is the first time for many people to meet him, and the first impression is... an interesting person.
After Zheng Dongren made a sad face for a while, he returned to his normal appearance and looked very artistic.
"At least my mentality is younger than Liu Xiyeol's!"
"Pfft!" Liu Jae-seok couldn't help but laugh. He thought that this senior was going to say something seriously, but it turned out to be this.
The audience was also amused. They didn't expect that this artistic uncle was so interesting.
As for Liu Xilie who wanted to say something in rebuttal, he was interrupted by Zheng Dongren in an instant.
"The song I'm going to perform next may sound familiar to you, but don't be surprised!"
Zheng Dongren spoke briefly and to the point. After he finished speaking, he made a gesture and the four of them prepared to start the performance.
The position division of this middle-aged team is that Zheng Xiuheng is the rhythm guitarist, Zheng Dongren is the lead vocalist, Zheng Jae-hyung is the bassist, and Yoo Hee-yeol sadly plays the drums.
Zheng Xiuheng has always had a very sensitive sense of touch. Standing on the right side of the stage, which was Yoo Jae-seok's side, he suddenly turned his head and his sight fell on the audience member wearing sportswear and a baseball cap not far away, and that person also lowered his head in time.
Zheng Xiuheng had a strange expression on his face, but turned his head away because Yoo Hee-yeol had already started playing the drums.
The audience soon realized that the familiar accompaniment was the same song that the Teletubbies had sung before.
Even sounds similar...
However, everyone's doubts gradually disappeared after Zheng Dongren officially opened his mouth. Zheng Dongren's deep voice and his extremely gifted resonance cavity sounded completely different from the feeling when the children sang. The beginning part sounded particularly lazy.
"My wobbly legs
Today was a meaningless day.
I believe that love also attracts like.
There will be absolutely no such thing as a heartbeat
Wi ing, Wi ing, I got through it again today
Like laughing at my sad self
Wi ing, Wi ing, and then fly away
Constantly rotating
The world seems to be laughing at me
Keep swinging
Tell me tell me please don't tell
I prefer to be the type of person who doesn't understand
Tell me tell me please don't tell
I prefer to be the invisible type
Ai ai ai ai ai
On the way to work in a crowded subway
There will be no such thing as clocking in to ride
Mumbling at home and doing nothing
I'm really sorry for looking so embarrassed.
Wi ing, Wi ing, I got through it again today
Like laughing at my sad self
Wi ing, Wi ing, and then fly away
Constantly rotating
The world seems to be laughing at me
Keep swinging
The biting cold wind
I don't know what to do with my broken heart
Drop by drop
When will tears cover the world..."
The same song but with completely different feelings, different lyrics, and different singing styles. The children's performance made everyone feel surprised and curious, and of course there was also thinking about the surprise and content of the song, but it was a little bland emotionally. Only a few people were emotionally attracted to it, and the voices were indeed too sweet. The girls could not sing out the power of doubts about pursuing dreams and the gazes of the outside world.
But Jung Dong-in is different. You know, just in terms of talent, he is the character that Yoo Hee-yeol and Jung Jae-hyung envy and hate, and there is also a lot of resentment, who told Jung Dong-in not to be too interested in being a singer.
The lyrics of this song were basically written by Yoo Hee-yeol, of course the inspiration came from Choi Joon-hee and Lee Ji-eun, and some key lyrics are still original. When Yoo Hee-yeol saw these two kids write such lyrics, he was very excited. After reading it carefully, he had more insights.
In fact, musicians like the Big Three are somewhat different from popular musicians. Simply put, they are upgraded independent musicians who have learned to form a team.
For example, Yoo Hee-yeol's personal band TOY, rather than saying that he sings well, it is more because the guest singers performed his works very well, which then became popular with the public and gained some fame.
Zheng Zaixing and Zheng Dongren both do more work behind the scenes. They are both very interested in instrumental music. The three of them started a company together, but it is different from other companies. They only do what they want to do...
To be honest, when Yoo Hee-yeol first started his career in music, he looked quite miserable. Like many unknown entertainers, he was in his twenties and still had to rely on help from his family to get through a month.
Liu Xilie has heard such names as flies, termites, and idiots who love to dream. Thinking back to that period of time, Liu Xilie wrote these lyrics.
Although there is a sense of overlapping time, this does not affect the creation of being closer to the present . For example, "On the way to work in a crowded subway, there is no such thing as punching in to ride", which expresses this kind of life, to the point where even a subway card is not needed and does not exist.
In fact, in Zheng Xiuheng's opinion, this attitude is not desirable. Perhaps the two girls did not think so much at the beginning, but simply felt that it was wrong and wanted to express their firm beliefs, but Zheng Xiuheng still rejected this concept because it was not suitable.
Just like an inspirational movie, a well-made one will always move people to tears, and after watching the movie, there will be countless beautiful memories left to savor, and even remembered for a lifetime.
But the reality is, the story of the movie, even if it is a true adaptation, does have the possibility of happening in this world, but this is based on a one hundred to one, or even a one thousand to one, or ten thousand to one situation. That is to say, you find determination and persistence because of something like chicken soup for the soul, but the result may not change much, and your dream may not necessarily come true.
So Zheng Xiuheng always says, do what you can. Although success is dazzling, behind success are hundreds and thousands of buried dreams.
Of course, this is judged with a realistic attitude, but on the other hand, these things are indeed necessary. This is why there are many debates when people talk about dreams. However, some attitudes, even if they cannot really change the world, will always bring some positive effects to people.
Things like Chicken Soup for the Soul. There will always be some people who like it and feel comforted...
However, the difference between Yoo Hee-yeol's fully processed lyrics and the children's is that only people with a little experience can fully understand the kind of dedication and perseverance, while the children's lyrics directly reveal their doubts about their dreams and the gazes of those around them.
"Tell me tell me please don't tell
I prefer to be the type of person who doesn't feel anything.
Tell me tell me please don't tell
I would rather be the type of person who can't survive...
My shaky legs
Today was a meaningless day.
I believe that love also attracts like.
There will be absolutely no such thing as a heartbeat
Wi ing, Wi ing, I got through it again today
Like laughing at my sad self
Wi ing, Wi ing, and then fly away
Constantly rotating
The world seems to be laughing at me
Keep on swinging..."
In the last part, other accompaniments were cancelled, leaving the guitarist singing along with Zheng Dongren's singing. His deep voice and the singing style of some annual rings made the audience in the audience immersed in it.
As the last note fell, the audience burst into warm applause. Perhaps because it was the same song, performed in different ways, the audience was more easily immersed in it.
In fact, sometimes it is a good thing to be unpopular, which allows people to focus more on music. Just like those girls like pretty boys and boys like to look at beautiful women, generally speaking, few people like to look at uncles. Although Zheng Xiuheng is mixed in among them, he can support the appearance, but the audience in the audience is not his fan group. Although many people are curious about him, he is only a small part of the radio listeners.
“Thank you everyone!”
As per custom, after the singing, Zheng Dongren bowed to express his gratitude, and the audience gave him applause generously. Because of the three songs in a row, the flow of people in the square has been increasing. If you look down from above, the audience is so densely packed that there are probably more than 500 people.
Although the audience cheered loudly and some even shouted "Encore", Zheng Xiuheng and the three giants did not hesitate at all and directly called for the next singer.
Then, Kim So-hyang, also wearing a battle uniform and with fluffy long hair, came onto the stage.
At this point Yoo Jae Suk walked off the stage and joined the audience. Although he was quite "dissatisfied", he did not complain about Jung Soo Hyung because he heard some good songs. However, he was very curious about the next stage.
The song sung by Kim So-hyang is one of the four songs with lyrics written by Jung Soo-heng for "Deemo". This song is about his idealistic persistence, which is sublimated in the lyrics. It is like his own attitude and also like the persistence of Han Ji-won's mother.
"The song we're going to sing next is "Moon Without The Stars", which is the game song of "Deemo". Of course, it was also composed by our Chairman Zheng Xiuheng. I hope everyone will like it!"
After Jin Suxiang gave a brief self-introduction, she talked about the song as a small promotion for Zheng Xiuheng. Then she nodded to Zheng Xiuheng and others, and took a deep breath while standing in front of the stage.
The pseudo-middle-aged band did not leave the stage. Since it was a public performance, after careful consideration, they decided to use live songs if possible and not play any accompaniments.
With Jin Suxiang's ability and live experience, it was natural for the makeshift band on the scene to help her with the accompaniment.
However, Zheng Xiuheng on the stage at this moment did not care about the other audiences. Instead, he sat in front of the keyboard, gave the guitar to Zheng Dongren, and returned to his old job.
At the same time, although Zheng Xiuheng came to the left side of the stage, he faced directly to the right, and his eyes were staring straight at the girl in sportswear.
