Chapter 503: The Second Scene, the Song Sung by Ye Yuanhang
The half-hour break ended quickly.
When the audience returned to their seats, they were still whispering, with all kinds of surprise on their faces.
"I just checked during the break, the God girl just now is really not a Westerner, but a pure Chinese."
"Her name is Miao Xiaoxia, and she is a very famous singer in China."
"I also learned about it. Miao Xiaoxia has never sung English songs before, but I didn't expect to sing so well."
"Just now, for a moment, I thought I really saw an angel descending to the earth."
"She is beautiful and the song is really beautiful."
"..."
Almost all of them were talking about Miao Xiaoxia.
Obviously, many people are still immersed in Miao Xiaoxia's performance just now, and it takes a long time to calm down.
Christie, Natalie and Brooke, who had just returned to the mentor seat, looked at each other and shook their heads helplessly.
But soon, the three of them were determined.
Christie gave the two a look: "Watch the second show!"
The other two nodded.
That's right!
Watch the second show!
They really don't believe that there can be another Miao Xiaoxia in Wang Mo's team!
And their own team members, all six of them are top seedlings. Even the first person who just appeared was not the best player in the team.
The best one has not yet appeared on the stage.
And Wang Mo may have sent the best player to the stage.
So, in the eyes of the three, the real victory or defeat is still to come.
There is no need to worry at this time.
Everything will be clear after the second game.
…
"Second game! Start!!!"
The high-pitched voice of the host Nick sounded in the recording studio, and his voice was excited: "In the first round, our four contestants all performed well. So what kind of surprise will the next contestant bring us? Please look forward to it with me. Of course, first of all, please ask the four mentors to draw lots to decide the order of appearance."
The drawing process is very short.
Natalie drew number 1, Brooke number 3, and Christie drew number 2.
Wang Mo casually touched the last ball from the lottery box and looked closely, number 4.
Hey!
The last one?
This ranking is actually not very good.
Because there are no weak people on the stage of "Dream Voice".
So the first person to go on stage will be able to make a good first impression. And the people who go on stage later, unless they can crush others like Miao Xiaoxia, will basically bear the huge pressure from the previous contestants and it will be difficult to perform well.
Backstage.
Su Xueyao saw the number drawn by Wang Mo, glanced at Ye Yuanhang who was about to go on stage, and smiled: "Brother Hang, the pressure is coming."
Hao Mingxing also smiled: "Don't overturn."
Fu Zhuang raised his eyebrows: "Xiaoxia has set an example for us. You, Ye Yuanhang, are now at least a Chinese Tian Wang-level singer. You won't be worse than Xiaoxia, right?"
Everyone laughed.
Even Miao Xiaoxia pursed her lips, and then waved her hands repeatedly: "Brothers and sisters, don't take me with you."
By the way.
In the past two or three years, Ye Yuanhang has successfully become a Tian Wang singer from a quasi-Tian Wang.
Of course, he is a love song king.
Because Ye Yuanhang is best at singing love songs. When he sang "Ten Years" given by Wang Mo, I don't know how many people cried.
"Ha!"
Ye Yuanhang clenched his fist and blinked his eyes: "I, Ye Yuanhang, have only lost to Brother Mo in my life. Do you dare to look down on me? I will let you know what it means to be a strong dragon suppressing a local snake!"
As he said that, he stood up and followed his assistant to a separate lounge to prepare for the stage.
...
Recording site.
After the draw, Nick shouted: "According to the rules of "Dream Voice", today's second game will be different from the first game. It adds a little bit of restrictions."
The audience cheered.
"Good!"
"Looking forward to it."
"What type is it this time?"
"I want to listen to folk songs."
"I want to listen to rock."
"..."
This is also one of the highlights of "Dream Voice".
In each episode of the show, there will be two games.
In the first game, the contestants can play freely and sing any song.
But in the second game, they must follow the conditions set by the rules.
The rules will be given to the contestants in advance.
Nick continued to shout: "The rule we gave to the contestants in this game is: nostalgia. As we all know, as long as we grow up, we will inexplicably reminisce about our previous life and environment. The older we are, the deeper the thoughts of reminiscence will be. There are countless songs about this. So this time, we let the contestants sing nostalgic songs. I hope their singing can bring us back to the good old days!"
Nostalgia!
The audience became restless.
"I like it!"
"I like this kind of song the most."
"Looking forward to it."
"..."
In the surprise of the audience, Nick walked off the stage.
Next, the contestants will go on stage.
The stage lights changed from bright to dazzling.
The noise slowly stopped, accompanied by a few whispered conversations from the audience.
"It's started."
"Here it comes, here it comes."
"Quiet."
"..."
The noise in the audience gradually disappeared, and everyone stared at the stage intently.
The second game officially began.
The first contestant to take the stage was actually a boy who was less than twenty years old. He was very handsome, and even had an inexperienced and shy look on his face.
Wang Mo knew clearly: "This person is most likely a student."
really.
The next second, the boy introduced: "Hello everyone, I am a junior at XX University. My name is Ryan. I hope everyone likes me."
After he finished speaking, he stood there, quietly waiting for the prelude of the song to begin.
On the giant screen next to the stage, the name of the song appeared: "Give Me Your Heart."
After the soft intro ends.
Ryan's song sounded:
"In the twilight of a forgotten dream,
In the twilight of forgotten dreams,
I see your face, it's like a sweet melody.
I see your face and it's like a sweet melody.
Days gone by, they fade into the night,
The past days fade into the night,
But memories of you, they still shine bright.
But your memory still shines brightly. "
This song is not original, but a classic nostalgic song in Europe and America.
As for the original singer of the song?
When the song just started, all the eyes of the audience were fixed on Kristiff. Because this is Kristiff’s famous song, I didn’t expect it to be brought to the stage today by members of Natalie’s team.
Natalie smiled: "I'm sorry, Mr. Kristiff, for stealing your song. Because Ryan is your most loyal fan, so when I heard that the second show was about singing nostalgic songs, I volunteered to sign up."
Kristiff spread his hands and said helplessly: "Hey! Is he really a fan of mine? But my fans joined your team and used my songs to deal with me. What a good fan."
Immediately, everyone laughed.
But I have to say that this Ryan is really strong. After singing one song, many people's faces showed nostalgia.
"Reminded of my first love."
"Me too, it was such a wonderful time."
"I feel a little mixed after hearing this."
"Although it is a classic song by Kristiff, this young man sang it with a unique artistic conception, especially his young voice, which is even more touching."
"That's true."
rave reviews.
This time, it's live voting rules.
When the contestants finish singing, the audience will vote instantly. Because songs of the same type can easily cause big psychological fluctuations in the audience due to the passage of time. If you vote again after a period of time, the error will be larger.
Instant voting will reflect the audience’s truest feelings at the moment.
soon.
The votes came out, out of a hundred votes cast, Ryan received 73 votes.
Ryan bowed in thanks.
Even Natalie looked satisfied.
73 votes is a pretty good result.
After all, in the first game, except for Miao Xiaoxia, the other three contestants only had more than 60 votes at most.
Then comes the second player.
When members of Kristiff's team came up, there was a burst of exclamation from the audience.
Because this man was clearly a burly man, with a height of 1.9 meters and well-developed muscles. If someone didn't know better, they would think that the other person was on stage for a boxing match.
But the song this person came up with really made everyone uproar: "Sweet Memories."
Even Wang Mo looked ridiculous.
Because this song is Natalie's famous song.
A song sung by a female singer!
To be sung by such a muscular man in front of me, the contrast is simply amazing.
"Oh my god, it hurts my eyes."
"Natalie's song, a muscular man singing it?"
"Natalie is probably confused."
"Hahaha, don't let the contrast be too ridiculous."
Of course, what makes many people extremely happy is that.
Kristiff's song was sung by Natalie's player just now, but at this moment, Natalie's song was sung by Kristiff's player again.
It’s true that courtesy reciprocates!
Natalie looked at Kristiff with a resentful look in her eyes: "Mr. Kristiff, you..."
Kristiff coughed: "Well, just like Natalie said just now, Anthony is your fan, and he chose your song because he likes you so much."
Natalie said quietly: "Well, it seems I have to thank him."
After a few words of discussion, everyone's attention returned to the muscular man on the stage.
Anthony.
That is, the muscular man, who has already started singing.
When the other party spoke, everyone's eyes widened.
Because they discovered that although this muscular man was tall, his voice was very mellow and gentle. When he sang "Sweet Memories", it had an inexplicable charm.
Even Wang Mo secretly sighed: He sang so well. In everyone's impression, this kind of big man is a rough man, but this man showed the rare gentleness of a rough man, and brought everyone into an alternative and sweet memory.
really.
After Anthony finished singing, many girls in the audience almost burst into tears.
"Good singing."
"marvelous."
"You can see the tenderness of a rough man."
"..."
Wang Mo and several other mentors also gave thumbs up and praised Anthony's performance.
soon.
The votes are out.
Anthony, got 80 votes!
This fan also surprised and delighted Kristiff. When he first fell in love with Anthony, it was because of the contrast between his body and voice. But I didn't expect the audience to be so into this.
To get more than 80 votes in the voting for "Dream Sound" is definitely an amazing achievement!
Of course, the 93 votes Miao Xiaoxia received in the last round cannot be counted. It was a miracle.
Even Natalie admitted that even if she sang the song "God is a Girl" in person, the effect would probably not be as good as Miao Xiaoxia's.
After Anthony finished singing.
It was Brook's player's turn.
This man is a long-haired young man, very handsome.
Even Wang Mo lamented: She is as beautiful as him.
What the long-haired young man sang was not an original song, but a classic nostalgic song in the music industry called "Tears of the Past."
Apparently, none of the three mentors dared take risks with original songs.
Because original songs have a process of acceptance by the audience.
It's fine if the acceptance level is high, but if the audience can't accept it at the scene, or they don't feel deeply about it in a short period of time, it will definitely cause the contestants to get a very low number of votes.
Especially nostalgic songs are difficult to gain recognition from the audience in a short period of time.
As a result, the three instructors unanimously chose to let the contestants sing existing classic songs.
Stability is the most important thing.
The long-haired young man’s song soon sounded:
"In the depths of my heart, there's a river that flows
Deep in my heart, there is a river flowing
Filled with tears of the past, memories that won't let go
Full of tears from the past, memories that refuse to let go.”
The young man's voice is hoarse, making it easy for people to fall into the whirlpool of memories following his emotional interpretation.
Especially this nostalgic song is also a sad emotional song, which makes it richer in emotion.
When a song is finished.
In the audience, many people's faces were covered with tears.
"Dylan's classic song, so sentimental."
"This singer sang so well that it made me cry."
“It’s very touching and I will vote.”
"As I get older, the more I listen to these kinds of songs, the less I dare to listen to them. Of course, that's also because the singer sings well."
"..."
This time.
The long-haired young man received 79 votes, only one vote behind the muscular Anthony.
Obviously everyone felt that although the long-haired young man sang well, it was still not as big as the psychological impact Anthony had on them.
The long-haired young man was obviously very satisfied with the number of votes, with excitement on his face.
So far.
The first three contestants all finished singing.
Backstage.
Hao Mingxing, Su Xueyao and others watched the entire show, with a hint of surprise deep in each other's eyes.
Hao Mingxing sighed softly: "To be honest, it's no wonder that it is difficult for our Chinese singers to achieve international results. Judging from the few singers we saw today, they are all still newcomers to the music scene, but the standards they displayed are comparable to Many of the top singers in the country are at a high level. Especially their stage presence, explosiveness, command of the field, and their own special momentum are not something we can learn in a short time. This is not due to their level, but to the difference between the East and the West. "
Su Xueyao nodded: "That's true. So under normal circumstances, if we rashly want to break into the international music scene, we are basically courting death. Because few European and American fans will appreciate it."
Speaking of which.
She suddenly smiled: "But this is a normal situation. And we don't need to worry about this, because we have Brother Mo."
Hao Mingxing also smiled: "You are right. Now, I am looking forward to what kind of songs Brother Mo will give Ye Yuanhang. Because the performance of the first three contestants is very good. In my opinion, although Ye Yuanhang is also good at singing It’s a soulful song, but compared with these people, it’s a little less interesting.”
In Hao Mingxing's view, these three people occupy the right time, place and people.
The advantages are obvious.
It would be too difficult for an outsider like Ye Yuanhang to surpass them.
"Just wait."
Su Xueyao looked at the stage, without any worry on her face.
Although they are not confident in Ye Yuanhang, they just have confidence in Wang Mo.
…
on the stage.
As the long-haired young man stepped down, Kristiff and others at the instructor's seat became a little uneasy.
They were looking forward to it, eager for it, and their hearts were beating fast.
It will soon be confirmed whether their idea is correct. Although they are 90% sure that the Chinese singer who will appear next will definitely flame out, they still can't completely rest assured before the other party actually takes the stage.
"The members of Master Wang Mo are here."
"who is it?"
"Is he another Chinese singer?"
At this moment, the audience in the audience also had expectations in their eyes.
After seeing Miao Xiaoxia's performance, their expectations for the members of Wang Mo's team have been greatly increased. They all want to see if the next singer can surprise them again.
"Surprise? Just don't be disappointed."
Backstage, the chief director Kevin saw the excitement in the eyes of the audience and thought to himself.
With Nick simply rendering the atmosphere.
Behind the stage, Ye Yuanhang walked up wearing gray casual clothes.
If Miao Xiaoxia looks 60 or 70% like a Westerner due to her appearance and makeup, then Ye Yuanhang has nothing to do with the blond and blue-eyed Westerner.
Seeing him, there were immediate discussions.
"As expected, he is still Chinese."
"With this yellow skin, this height and appearance, he is definitely a pure yellow person."
"They look very similar to Master Wang Mo. Are they twins?"
In the eyes of foreigners, Orientals are all cut out of the same mold.
Wang Mo and Ye Yuanhang are similar in height, body shape, hair and clothing style, so it is normal for some people to look like twins.
But Wang Mo's face was full of black lines: Damn it, what do these people look like? I, Sai Pan'an, can actually look like twins with Ye Yuanhang? unacceptable!
However, when Ye Yuanhang heard these discussions, his heart almost flew away.
Damn it!
These audiences are discerning!
After you finish singing, you must treat the other person to a big dinner!
It's just that at this moment, I am standing under the light and can't see the audience clearly.
Calm down.
Ye Yuanhang just picked up the microphone and waited for the prelude to begin.
He didn't introduce himself, because now even if he said his name, it wouldn't do much. And his information will appear on the adjacent screen.
Singer: Ye Yuanhang.
Song: "Yesterday Once More".
Lyrics and music: Wang Mo.
Band: "Dream Sound" team.
As the information emerged, all three instructors ouched.
There was also a lot of noise in the auditorium.
New song!
It’s actually a new song!
"Is this Chinese singing a new song?"
"Are you so confident?"
"Nostalgic songs, how can new songs easily make people fall into memories?"
"Singing classic songs will naturally make you invincible. Singing new songs is simply courting death."
"It's kind of incredible."
The three of Kristiff looked at each other, swallowed their saliva at the same time, and looked at Wang Mo.
At this moment, Wang Mo's expression remained unchanged, with a faint smile on his face.
While everyone's mood was still ups and downs, the prelude of the song had already started playing.
The gentle sound of the piano was like a ray of breeze blowing through everyone's hearts, and it was like the early morning sunlight filtering through the curtains, warm and soft, making everyone gradually quiet down.
But there’s nothing special about the intro.
The accompaniments of nostalgic songs are basically tender and gentle.
Followed by.
Ye Yuanhang's song sounded:
"When I was young, I'd listen to the radio
When I was young, I loved listening to the radio
Waiting for my favorite songs
Waiting for my most beloved song
When they played I'd sing along
I sing along when they play
It made me smile
Makes me smile”
The song flows out like a clear spring, with a touch of sadness and endless longing.
As the king of love songs in China, Ye Yuanhang is at the pinnacle of emotional expression, and his expressions are also on point.
As he sang, everyone's expressions suddenly became sad and confused.
The good times of his youth appeared before his eyes.
At that time, I always had curiosity and longing for the world, quietly listening to the songs coming from the radio, and feeling the touch and novelty brought by the music.
"Sounds so good?"
"So gentle."
"..."
Who doesn’t have teenage years?
Who doesn’t have fond memories of childhood?
Maybe some people don’t have memories of love, maybe some people don’t have sweet memories of the past, but everyone must have a warm childhood harbor in their memory.
So just after Ye Yuanhang sang a few lines, many people were moved emotionally and entered into the memory.
“Those were such happy times
What a happy time that was
And not so long ago
not so long ago
How I wondered where they'd gone
How I wonder where they went."
As the song progresses, the melody gradually becomes more passionate, as if it is telling an unspeakable emotion.
What kind of deliberate nostalgia do you want?
What kind of deliberate recollection do you want?
The natural ones are the easiest to touch people's hearts.
And this song is like that.
The lyrics are actually very simple, so simple that they are straightforward. But the more such lyrics are expressed, it makes many people's eyes turn red in a trance.
In fact, the song "Yesterday Comes Again" does not require a specific singer, because it is not difficult and any singer can sing it.
But Wang Mo finally gave it to Ye Yuanhang.
Because although this song is easy, if you really have to interpret the emotion in it perfectly, only an emotional king like Ye Yuanhang can do it.
Being simple doesn't mean you can sing well.
At this moment, Ye Yuanhang's soulful singing made almost everyone feel shaken.
Ordinary audiences in the audience had already sunk.
Mentors’ seats.
As Christie listened, his eyes also showed deep memories and longing. Now he has stood at the pinnacle of the music world and become an international superstar, but no matter how successful he is, he can never go back to the past, to that innocent and sunny life.
He sighed softly, his eyes full of sighs.
Next to him, Natalie also had a complicated look in her eyes. She thought of her grandmother, her favorite and most admired grandmother, the figure who raised her up with one hand.
As the song said, that period of youth was the happiest time of her life. But her favorite grandmother passed away five years ago.
Yesterday again?
I can’t go back... I can’t go back forever.
She will never be able to see her grandmother again.
At that moment, Natalie’s tears burst out. For the first time in her life, she, who had been strong all her life, lost her composure in public.
"Natalie?"
Brooke, who was standing next to her, saw that Natalie was in a bad mood and patted her on the shoulder.
Natalie came back to her senses and wiped her tears, but she still couldn't control herself.
Beside her, Christie was also shocked by Brooke's actions.
At this time, they realized that they had lost their composure.
"What am I doing?"
"Huh?"
"This..."
The three of them looked at each other, and suddenly a wave of shock surged in their hearts.
They actually lost their minds!
Oh my God!
They actually lost their minds while listening to a song!
This has never happened since they became mentors.
Even when they listened to Miao Xiaoxia singing "God is a Girl" just now, they only sighed in their hearts, but they were far from losing their minds. However, this time, they all lost their minds. (End of this chapter)
