Chapter 47

After winning the best newcomer award, Kiyoshi Sakamoto took the next composition award, arrangement award, and poetry award.

Composition Award was awarded to "Close Your Eyes Lightly"

The composition award was awarded to "Flower"

The poem award was awarded to "Flower"

However, Kiyoshi Sakamoto wrote the lyrics, composed music, and arranged the music for the two songs alone. Therefore, Kiyoshi Sakamoto came to the stage to accept the award four times, and he didn't have much to say when he received the award.

Half an hour before the Record Awards ceremony started, Kiyoshi Sakamoto had already won four awards.

"Those who have just turned on the TV, and those who have just switched channels, friends, don't be surprised. The scene is the No.40 Sixth RB Record Awards, not Kiyoshi Sakamoto's Manzai performance... Well, no." This is from The ridicule of Akashi's saury.

Tonight as the host of the Record Awards is one of the BIG3 in the comedy world, Akashi's saury and the famous actress, Takako Tokiwa.

This sentence also made the artists and audience on the scene laugh, as well as the audience watching TV.

And the photographer at the scene is also good at playing, so he immediately turned the camera to Kiyoshi Sakamoto.

Sakamoto Kiyoshi also made a very cooperative action at this time, that is, hugging the four trophies already in his hand tightly, and posing to the camera with an expression of "This is mine, you can't grab it", vigilant looking at the camera.

This malicious act of showing cuteness made the audience burst into laughter, and many artists also watched with a smile. This 14-year-old boy was there to protect his trophy, but he didn't have a trace of jealousy.

Because Kiyoshi Sakamoto can be said to be the most popular artist this year, and it's useless to be jealous. He released two singles this year, and both singles have sold over a million. How do you compare?
The awards are still going on, and the best singing award that will be presented next is finally not Kiyoshi Sakamoto. . .

Satomi Natsukawa won the Best Singing Award for her song "Aiyo Aiyo".

In the next few insignificant awards, they were all divided out like cakes by the organizers.

Because at the Red and White Song Festival, Kiyoshi Sakamoto and the TEH SUN band performed in the second half of the first part, at about nine o'clock, before rushing from the New National Theater to the NHK music hall, so the three of Kiyoshi Sakamoto are still At the Record Awards, waiting for the time to go on stage.

The time slowly moved towards [-]:[-] amidst the wonderful performances of various groups of artists.

At this time, Kiyoshi Sakamoto, who was sitting under the stage, received instructions for the performance to be on stage, so he signaled to Ogawa Makoto and the other seniors of Mr. Children, and then turned to the backstage Go, get ready to perform on stage.

Soon, Akashi's saury on the stage saw the script in his hand, and said with a smile, "Then, let us give warm applause to welcome our young man who has already won several awards tonight, Sakamoto-kun, bring us Come, "Close Your Eyes Lightly". Please."

As soon as the words fell, the lights on the stage dimmed suddenly. At this time, Kiyoshi Sakamoto entered the center of the stage from the backstage and stood still.

At this time, with the lights turned off, the entire scene also turned down all the volume, quietly waiting for Kiyoshi Sakamoto's performance.

"Snapped!"

A few spotlights suddenly focused on the center of the stage, shining on Kiyoshi Sakamoto, who was wearing a white shirt, black trousers, and bowed his head.

Then Kiyoshi Sakamoto handed the microphone to his mouth and started his singing.

"Whenever you wake up in the morning, your shell will be by your side"

From the moment he opened his mouth, Kiyoshi Sakamoto gave the audience at the scene and in front of the TV a unique feeling with his warm and sad voice, which always touched everyone who heard the song.

The song "Close Your Eyes Lightly" was originally a farewell elegy, expressing the feeling after the parting, that everything she left to herself, in essence, is still very reluctant.

But under the interpretation of Sakamoto Kiyoshi's warm voice, what the whole song expresses is that after parting, although I still miss it very much, I will collect everything you gave me, look forward, and keep going.

In essence, I am immersed in sadness after parting, unable to extricate myself; after parting, although sad, but because of you, I continue to move forward.

It gives people a positive feeling, and every time Kiyoshi Sakamoto sings the climax of the chorus, there is a trace of sadness in his eyes, but a smile on his face, which also makes the audience, very able From the singing, what Sakamoto Kiyoshi wants to convey through this song is an attitude of forgetting sadness and moving forward even if you are sad.

Therefore, this song has changed from a sad love song in the previous life to Sakamoto Kiyoshi's version of forgetting the sad song!
As the audience immersed themselves in the song, no one noticed the passage of time, and everyone seemed to be taken to another world by Kiyoshi Sakamoto's singing.

Finally, after Sakamoto Kiyoshi sang the last sentence, the scene seemed to have no reaction, until the sound of Sakamoto Kiyoshi bowing to the audience and thanking the audience sounded. .

With the end of a song by Kiyoshi Sakamoto, the list of more important gold awards was announced next.

Mika Kanno, "Sunset Clouds"

Tomomi Hanahara, "If You Were Here"

Satomi Natsukawa, "Love, Love, Love"

EXILE, "Carry On"

BoA, "QUINCY"

. . . . . . . .

Mr. Children, "sign"

Kiyoshi Sakamoto, "Close Your Eyes Lightly"

THE SUN, "Flower"

But after saying the names of the gold medals one by one, the three members of THE SUN band no longer sat and watched at the scene.Because of the performances after the gold medal list, it's finally them.

This time, it was Takako Tokiwa who announced.

"Among so many excellent works, I like the song "Flower" by TEH SUN band, so let us invite the next performer, THE SUN band, to bring us their song "Flower". "."

The lights dimmed again, and the scholar-officials immediately placed all the musical instruments for the performance. The three of TEH SUN were also holding their own musical instruments, preparing for the lights to come on.

Still the same, the spotlight hit the stage all of a sudden, but this time it was on the three of them.

The song "Flower" has no prelude, and it is a wave of solo by Kiyoshi Sakamoto.

when the petals are scattered

The miracle of meeting you like a dream
. . . . . . .

turned into a flower
After singing this sentence, the drums joined, the bass joined, and the guitar joined, and the style of music instantly changed to rock!

A wave of interaction with the audience also cheered up the whole venue.

It has to be said that rock LIVE can mobilize people's emotions.

For the entire four and a half minute song "Flower", the audience at the scene stood the whole time, chanted CALL together, and swayed together to finish listening.

After the TEH SUN band finished the performance, they ran out of the New National Theater in a hurry from the backstage.

At this time, at the door, Uncle Ishida had already parked the nanny's car there. As soon as they got into the car, he immediately stepped on the accelerator, and the car rushed out like a cannonball flying out.

At this time, it was eight forty in the evening.

In 10 minutes, it is still a bit difficult to reach the NHK TV station. At this time, it is to test the strength of Uncle Ishida, the old driver.

Ishida's "Takumi" who has been driving for many years is not in vain. After 7 minutes and 20 seconds, the three of Sakamoto Kiyoshi arrived on NHK TV.

The three people who ran into the backstage of the stage wiped their sweaty heads first, then put on their instruments, ready to go on stage.

Nine o'clock, NHK Concert Hall, white group performer: TEH SUN band.

TEH SUN, who debuted in red and white for the first time, only has two and a half minutes, so Kiyoshi Sakamoto had already discussed the arrangement with Masaki Ogawa and Masaki Chiba before going up to perform.

There are several performance stages in the Red and White Song Club. When the camera was still on stage [-] on the other side, Kiyoshi Sakamoto and the others arrived at stage [-], getting ready and waiting for the host's announcement.

While the three of them were preparing, the audience who saw THE SUN appearing on the stage also exclaimed bursts of exclamation.

At this time, the hostesses Ono Fumie and Abe She who were chatting on Stage [-] also noticed.

So Abe Shepherd, who is the host of the white group, laughed and joked, "Hey, since the guest performers on the other side are ready, let's next, please invite the band THE SUN from the white group to bring "Flower" .”

Fumie Ono also echoed, "Doso (please)"

The camera immediately shifted from the No. [-] stage over there to the location of the No. [-] stage, and at this time, the three of THE SUN were ready.

Next, SHOW TIME! ! !

The same song, different stages, but the same feeling, that is: Hi!

After the arrangement of "Flower", in two and a half minutes, it is still as beautiful as a flower that blooms in an instant. . .

After the performance of THE SUN in the white group, it should be the turn of the artists of the red group to appear next, but Ogawa Masaki and Chiba Masaki of TEH SUN have both left the stage, leaving only Kiyoshi Sakamoto standing on the second stage .

At this time, the audience at the scene and the audience in front of the TV all thought of a possibility, that is: next, Kiyoshi Sakamoto's performance!

How can this be?One person represented the white team in consecutive battles and sang two songs in a row. This may be the No. 1 in history.

As if knowing what the audience was thinking, the host of the white group, Abe Shepherd, reported at this time, "Then I will invite Kiyo-kun Sakamoto from our white group to bring "Close Your Eyes Lightly."

Really, if this is the case, Kiyoshi Sakamoto became the first artist to sing two songs in a row since the 55th round of the Red and White Song Club!
Moreover, he still set a new record for being the youngest person to attend the Red and White Song Festival, and set this record at the age of 14!
Kiyoshi Sakamoto, who didn't know that he was standing on the red and white stage and had created many records, is now singing a short version of "Close Your Eyes Lightly".

Of course, no matter how the record is set, Kiyoshi Sakamoto, who has just debuted for less than a year, still can only sing for two and a half minutes.

However, after adding the performance time of THE SUN band just now, Kiyoshi Sakamoto can be said to have appeared at the Red and White Song Concert for 5 minutes, which made Kiyoshi Sakamoto's popularity rise again.

　The second one is here, please ask for a ticket!Newcomers need your care. . .
