"On a rainy day, I'm walking on a deserted street..."
After playing the short prelude, Lu Chen sang to the accompaniment of the piano: "Look at the flowers, thank you..."
All fans who are familiar with Tan Hong believe that "Flying Pigeon" is one of his best works. The lyrics of this song are not profound and complicated. It's a dove flying in the sky.
This is also a lyrical folk song suitable for young people to play and sing, so it has been loved by countless people. It has been sung for more than ten years, and it can often be heard in bars in Houhai.
However, it is recognized that this song is difficult to sing and play. If a singer who does not have enough strength wants to sing it wonderfully, it is completely self-defeating.
According to Lu Chen's previous standards, he chose "Flying Pigeon" as the opening song, which is beyond his control!
However, when he lightly plucked the strings and started his own singing, the Wangyoucao bar quickly fell silent. Several customers who were chatting and laughing closed their mouths, and the bartender standing behind the bar stopped shaking the drink in his hand. Pot, even the waiters tiptoe when they walk, for fear of affecting others.
Lu Chen's clear and clean voice was clearly transmitted to everyone's ears through the speakers placed in every corner of the bar, involuntarily infecting the customers present and making their mood fluctuate with the music.
"I stand in front of you..."
"I dream of becoming a pigeon flying in the blue sky..."
"La la ah~ Flying pigeons!"
Like because of familiarity, but also picky because of familiarity.
Many of the customers who come to Wangyoucao often have a good appreciation of music or popular music. They can tell the difference as long as the singer plays a wrong note or sings a wrong tune, especially for songs like "Flying Pigeon". Familiar classics are a great test for singers.
Lu Chen's playing and singing are almost perfect, fingering, breath, voice, and emotion are all in place. If you have to be critical, it can only be said that compared with the original singer Tan Hong, he is still a little greener.
But a boy who is not young, is he still a boy
After 5 minutes, the song ended.
The audience was silent, and after a while, it was unknown who started it, and there was a round of applause.
Good is good, and singing well will naturally get sincere applause.
Then the loud hooligan whistle rang, which once again attracted a lot of laughter and admiration.
"Little Lu, you sang so charmingly today, my sister loves you so much, I'll give you a dozen gold coins!"
This is a warm greeting from a real bone spirit/pseudo female literary youth!
"thanks… "
Lu Chen smiled and waved at the other party to express his gratitude—it was an old customer who liked to joke.
Customers’ love and support for singers is usually reflected in the form of rewards. Male singers send beer, and female singers send flowers. There are 12 Kingway sticks in a dozen, and the price of one stick is 20 yuan, which is equivalent to 240 yuan.
Lu Chen doesn't need to drink the wine, but he can get 50% of it, which is 120 yuan!
The positioning and customer groups of Houhai Bar are completely different from those in Sanlitun. Basically, there are no local tyrants who spend thousands of dollars, rich second-generation wrestlers who throw XO fighting spirits, and mentally disabled children who fight to pick up girls.
The tipping of 12 pieces of Kingway is quite a feat here.
This sister Shan also gave wine to Lu Chen before, but at most two or three bottles of meaning, today she directly sent a dozen, which undoubtedly shows that the playing and singing he just finished was loved and appreciated by the other party.
Lu Chen's choice of "Flying Pigeon" as the opening song is undoubtedly correct.
He hugged the guitar and felt a strange feeling in his heart.
And behind the bar, there is a charming woman in a very special mood.
Her cherry lips parted slightly, she stared at the bar owner Chen Jianhao with incredulous eyes, and said, "Brother Jianhao, if you don't want to be reluctant to let him go, just tell me, is it interesting to play with me like this?"
Chen Jianhao couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Su Qingmei, how can I play with you!"
This aunt is not an ordinary person, and his old bones are absolutely unbearable.
"How dare you say..."
Su Qingmei gritted her teeth and said: "Xiao Lu's voice is a bit distinctive, but his level is too amateurish. It's the limit here to pad the stage, and you have to rely on the back to support the stage. Do you really want it?"
She repeated what Chen Jianhao said about Lu Chen before, without saying a single word wrong!
Chen Jianhao was speechless for a moment.
He himself also felt very strange, Lu Chen was clearly an amateur, but the playing and singing skills he showed today were completely different from before, as if a miracle had happened after being completely reborn!
Just before Lu Chen started singing, Chen Jianhao was still very upset that Lu Chen chose "Flying Pigeon" as the opening song.
He thought the song was too difficult, and Lu Chen couldn't handle it at all.
But now he is being ridiculed by Su Qingmei, and unable to refute, he can only say: "This kid... Hey!"
"It must have been guided by a master in the past two days, and it's just a super-level performance."
Chen Jianhao thought of an explanation that he thought was reasonable.
"Two days?"
Su Qingmei sneered and said: "Can you point out such a level in two days? Which master is so powerful, I will hire him with an annual salary of one million, and don't tell me that you can't hear him, his voice has never been adjusted by the backstage at all." !"
Chen Jianhao felt that his face was almost swollen.
He knows music, he was originally an insider, and the bar is owned by himself, so how could he not be able to tell if the live singer's singing had been tuned
There must be something wrong with the electronic music room!
This all the more shows how powerful Lu Chen is—pure original voice!
Facing the aggressive Su Qingmei, Chen Jianhao could only say depressed and helpless: "Then you go talk to Xiao Lu yourself, as long as he agrees, I will definitely let him go!"
In fact, Lu Chen and Wangyoucao Bar didn't sign a formal contract, and they can leave wherever they want.
Su Qingmei showed a triumphant smile, and said: "Listen to two more songs, maybe it's a super-level performance?"
At this moment, Lu Chen, who was sitting on the stage with his guitar in his arms, had already received 37 beers as rewards.
The extra income of 370 yuan almost made his mood soar, and finally suppressed his excitement, and said into the microphone: "Thank you very much for your support, the following song, um, is very special..."
His words stumbled, he paused and continued: "It's a song I wrote myself, and it's the first time I sang it today. Its name is..."
"You at the same table!"
"You at the same table", this is the first song Lu Chen got in Dream World. He composed the music and lyrics for this song, and then successfully registered the copyright with another song in the "Great China Music Library".
Therefore, from a legal perspective, "You at the Same Table" is an original song that Lu Chen owns all copyrights of.
But it was impossible for Lu Chen to deceive himself, saying that such behavior was not plagiarism, but when he thought of the huge debts at home, the burden in his heart was so weak that it disappeared.
The familiar yet unfamiliar dream world, and the memories of three periods of life, should be God's gift to change his destiny!
Taking a deep breath, Lu Chen's bewildered eyes became firm again, and he pressed his fingers on the string again.
Original song, sung for the first time in Wangyoucao bar
Lu Chen's words inevitably caused a little commotion in the bar. Many guests were surprised, and many of them thought he was grandstanding.
Especially those old customers who knew Lu Chen were already surprised at the level of Lu Chen's playing and singing of "Flying Pigeon" just now, but now they are a little unbelievable when they hear that he will sing a song composed by himself.
It's so easy to be original!
Since the birth of modern popular music, countless classics have appeared in mainland China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Europe, America, Japan and South Korea, but now, there are fewer and fewer good original works, and some people even say that excellent melodies have been written.
Of course, the melody cannot be finished, but this statement also proves the difficulty of originality.
Many pop singers claim to be original, and their works are often patchwork or unremarkable. There are also such singers in the bar circle. They often expect to become famous and popular, but the result is mostly ridiculous.
Did Lu Chen lose his mind too
It's normal for young people to be impulsive, and everyone can understand when they don't have passion.
But that doesn't mean they think Lu Chen can come up with good original works.
It's just that the title of the song sounds very interesting - you at the same table.
Many people thought of the tablemate they used to have when they were young, and there was a smile on their faces.
"Original..."
Su Qingmei pursed her lips and said with a smile: "Brother Jianhao, your little buddy is really hiding something, today I came at the right time!"
The owner of the bar, who had already been hit hard, said in a dispirited manner: "Listen, listen..."
original? It's just nonsense, he doesn't know how much Lu Chen weighs
When Chen Jianhao asked Lu Chen to perform on stage, it was because he had a good appearance and a decent voice. It was not a big problem to fool laymen. Anyway, he was just a singer on stage, and it didn't matter if he sang well or not.
As for musical literacy, does Lu Chen have it
But having learned from the previous lessons, Chen Jianhao will not say more, in case if he gets slapped in the face again...
Where is his old face
On the stage, the guitar prelude sounded, and then the soothing singing drifted into everyone's ears.
"Will you remember tomorrow,
The diary you wrote yesterday,
Do you still miss tomorrow,
You who used to cry the most.
The teachers can't remember
You who can't guess the problem,
I also accidentally flipped through the photos,
I just remembered you at the same table!
who married the sentimental you,
Who read your diary,
Who put your long hair up,
Who made your wedding dress...
…”
The customers present were stunned, and the waiters were also stunned.
Chen Jianhao was stunned, and Su Qingmei was also stunned.
amazing!
The classic ballad that belongs to another world, after Lu Chen's singing, suddenly opened his/her heart!
Touches everyone's soul.
