Respawn Entertainment: Days of Glory

At the same time, the lights on the stage were like meteors, passing through the bodies of several Hedgehog musicians. In the flickering light, Ding Ding was the first to beat the rhythm by hitting the cymbals, and then Bian Lang nodded and followed the rhythm.

At this moment, Bian Lang thought of the live video of Jun Ge's 2006 BJ Starlight Concert. At that time, he and the two guitarists were shirtless on the stage, and several people were dancing to the rhythm. The scene of Jun Ge jumping around with the microphone cord wrapped around his neck was really cool.

Of course it was impossible for Bian Lang to take off his shirt and throw it to the audience during the show, otherwise he would be stopped on the spot and have to re-record.

But he still wanted to pay tribute, so he followed the rhythm and shouted like Jun Ge at that time: "Hey... Hey... Hey..."

After these three shouts, all the instruments joined in as if they had received a signal.

Anyone who has listened to "Yellow" can now tell that the arrangement has indeed undergone a lot of changes at this time, especially in the keyboard and electric guitar parts, whether it is the timbre and rhythm division, the original song has changed from being more meteor-like to now having a more punk flavor.

When Coldplay heard this backstage, they couldn't help but laugh and shake their heads.

If they knew the Chinese proverb, they would say it without hesitation: "His uncle is still his uncle!"

Those participating bands who had been curious but had not listened to the rehearsal were now cheering and applauding in the viewing room.

"It feels like that. It feels like they are twins, a boy and a girl. Even though they are born from the same parents, the style has completely changed!"

“Now I’m just waiting to see if Bian Lang will make any changes to the lyrics.”

"I guess Bian Lang should have directly changed the Chinese version!"

Lao Zhao's words really came true. After the 40-second prelude, the spotlight on the stage lit up and illuminated Bian Lang. At the same time, he began to sing: "I want to know how...long a meteor can fly...and whether its beauty is worth pursuing..."

"Oh my god! That sounds so damn good!"

"What do the original lyrics of Yellow mean? Isn't this just a simple translation?"

"You are stupid. If you translate an English song literally, you can't even sing it clearly, let alone make it sound so good!"

As for the members of the Coldplay band, although they didn't understand the lyrics, they were all listening and singing in silence.

If we talk about the people who are most familiar with the song "Yellow" in the world, besides Bian Lang, it is them. In order to perform well at the Blueberry Music Festival, they rehearsed all night long. Bian Lang gave them every detail in the arrangement, and they can almost play it with their eyes closed.

Therefore, they are the ones who know best the pros and cons of changes in the arrangement.

From the beginning to now, the contrasting feeling I get is that the love of "Yellow" is held carefully in the palm of one's hand, for fear that if there is any mistake or omission, it will be lost forever.

As for shooting stars, they are just like the song title, they only seek momentary brilliance and completely disregard the consequences.

This can be better understood from the lyrics: "The flowers in the night sky, scattered behind you, have made me happy for a long time, and are worth waiting for... So my heart is running wildly, from dusk to dawn, I can't bear it anymore..."

The Chinese lyrics of this song were mentioned earlier. They were originally written by a lyricist from Hong Kong and given to Jun Ge to cover. However, Jun Ge thought the lyrics were too poor, so he wrote this version himself. That was in 2001.

About 20 years later, Jun Ge and Liu Yun appeared on "Wife's Romantic Travel". Bian Lang and several brothers in the band went to watch the show out of their love for the rock music veterans.

When Liu Yun saw that Jun Ge was just asking the audience whether they wanted to listen to "Naked" or "Cinderella", she rushed onto the stage with an expression as if she wanted to eat Jun Ge, but Jun Ge actually "cowarded"!

The brothers were so shocked that they could have stuffed a goose egg in their mouths: "Oh my god, is this still the Zheng Jun who said on the show that all the songs on the charts were 'shi'?"

One of the brothers sighed and said, "If Yellow was given to Jun now, he would never be able to write the feeling of dying for love!"

Bian Lang’s original reply at that time was: “Of course! The lyrics of “Meteor” can’t be written by anyone except someone like Jun Ge who has both outstanding looks and talent!”

Just like the chorus of the song says: "I would rather fall into your hands... transform into a rainbow in the night... metamorphose into a breeze of moonlight... ye... become a breeze of moonlight..."

During the interlude, Bian Lang swept the rhythm and pulled the crank, then shook his long hair and went to play the piano with Strauss.

Logically speaking, this song is definitely not as easy to play as metal, but for some reason, just a simple "dong dong da dong" drum beat made the musicians on the stage and the rock fans in the audience all get high.

Looking at the super fans, Liu Xiaokui, who has no idol baggage at all, and Silva, who is genuine in his nature, also stood up and started to dance.

Although it was not the first time that Silva had heard it, Bian Lang was not as excited as he was today, whether during rehearsal or dress rehearsal!

Moreover, that kind of excitement was a kind of venting-like excitement that had never appeared in many of Bian Lang’s previous performances!

Seeing Bian Lang shaking his head more violently than a metalhead, Liu Ziyang was a little worried whether Bian Lang's cervical spine could withstand it...

But he was also a little strange! Why did Bian Lang do this?

In the viewing room, Dayong, who had known Bian Lang the longest, also noticed something, which reminded him of the night in Mid-Levels not long ago.

Although the madness was not as strong as that night, he felt that it was probably the aftereffect of that night.

What people who have just broken up hate is nothing more than others showing off their affection in front of them. If it’s their ex, no matter if they are a man or a woman, they will basically lose their minds!

And it has only been a few days since Bian Lang performed this song about love to death. God knows what Bian Lang used to stimulate the emotions and perform such a scene!

If you ask Bian Lang about this, he himself doesn't know. As he sang, he became particularly envious of Jun Ge when he was young.

Whether it's temperament or talent, or the desire for passionate love...

So when the next verse started, Bian Lang raised his head and closed his eyes, just like a drunken version of Zheng Jun: "I jump into your river and swim to the end, where there is so much freedom... I make a wish, I make a wish for blessing, let my heart solidify, at the most beautiful moment..."

After singing, there is another short interlude. Bian Lang is still like a fool drowning in his own spiritual world, just continuing to indulge in his own world: "I would rather fall into your hands... transform into a rainbow in the night... I would rather never see the bright... sky again... never see the bright sky again..."

In the following interlude, Bian Lang felt more and more excited, and he felt that he treated love and life just like Jun Ge, which is actually the most comfortable state for a "prodigal son".

Set a goal for yourself, such as getting married and having kids in this life...

"Haha! Go to hell!"

So, with a bit of youthful enthusiasm, he held the fretboard in his left hand and the pick in his right hand, closed his eyes and tilted his head to sing: "Happiness, jump into your river... swim to the end, jump into your river... I make a wish to bless... at the most beautiful time

“The wish I made…” When he sang this, it was not known whether Bian Lang did it on purpose or if he really had some problem with his voice. On the verge of becoming hoarse, he rubbed his vocal cords back and forth and continued to sing: “I want to know how long the shooting star can fly, and it has made me happy for a long… long time…”

I don’t know if it’s a matter of listening experience or something, but some people feel that Bian Lang intentionally didn’t sing the last two notes, just to create the mood of the last line of the lyrics: “This is just a fantasy that deceives oneself!”

Music fans also had mixed feelings. "Yellow" gave them a warm feeling, but "Meteor" sounded a bit too extreme, with a tragic beauty.

But maybe it was because Bian Lang's performance today was a little too weird, causing music fans to fall into a state of self-reflection after the excitement!

The theme of love, as a major category of literary creation, has actually been played out a long time ago. When compared with reality, many people will sigh in their hearts.

But there will always be someone like Bian Lang who will jump out and tell you with his singing: "Love must be passionate, this is what love should be like!"

The result of listening to this kind of song is that even if you have compromised with reality, even if you are already bruised and battered, it will make the little flame buried deep in your heart throb a little.

Just like some of the middle-aged music fans at the scene, their eyes are now filled with tears!

As for close female friends such as Chen Shuting, they sensitively noticed some clues behind Bian Lang's strange state today.

Guo Sichu was not there that night, and although there was an internal gag order, she and Liang Kuan certainly had to know about it.

Guo Sichu watched the video of "Don't Break My Heart" in a hotel in Shanghai after attending an event. Because she knew the whole story, from the moment she clicked on the video, her focus was not on the song itself, but on the state of the singer.

The fans were used to watching Bian Lang go crazy on stage, and thought it was nothing. But Bian Lang gave Guo Sichu the impression that he was a little too tense and a little out of shape in his daily life. And that night in the middle of the mountain, she probably knew that it was the first time that Bian Lang's true colors were revealed.

Even when BJ was recording a song, a group of people were eating skewers, drinking beer and posting videos, but their true colors were not exposed as thoroughly as they were this time.

And today at the scene, her opinion was the same as Dayong's, but her intuition as a woman made her more certain!

"Some people appear to be open-minded on the surface, but in fact they themselves don't know how difficult it is to get over this matter..." Guo Sichu felt that this was a common problem among some men.

So whether Bian Lang's performance today was a conscious release or an unconscious self-healing, she felt it was pretty good.

So after Niu Boyi announced the end of the voting, she was the first to comment: "In fact, I have only started to get in touch with and understand rock music in the past six months or one year. In fact, I may not be as good as many senior music fans here.

But after going to so many music festivals and watching so many bands perform on this show, I can say from the bottom of my heart that rock is the art of live performance. Whether it is perfect or imperfect, it is all part of the performance. Sometimes, perhaps it is because of imperfection that classics are created! "

After hearing this, Bian Lang, who had come to his senses, clasped his hands together to express his gratitude to Guo Sichu.

His loss of control today was unexpected, and now he knows why. The last few lines were not because he couldn't sing them, but he felt that this was the most suitable way for the song at the moment. Just like Jun Ge in the original Earth!

After Guo Sichu finished speaking, Liu Ziyang took over the conversation and asked without hesitation: "Bian Lang, did you handle the last few sentences like this on purpose?"

Taking off the headset and picking up the microphone, Bian Lang replied without hesitation: "Yes, I think the emotions have reached that point, and it should be like that. Thank you everyone!"

Liu Ziyang nodded and said, "Indeed, Mr. Guo and I agree. Sometimes, these accidents are the key factors in creating classics. I have a suggestion. The votes for the Rolling Stones... no... Hedgehog, I think we should announce them together after Coldplay finishes their performance!"

When Niu Bo heard this deliberate attempt to create suspense, there was no reason for him to refuse, so he immediately said, "I agree with this proposal too!"

Then came Silva’s speech, which was also the speech that music fans were most looking forward to hearing.

She said it in English first, and Ou Feina beside her took the microphone and translated it into Chinese, saying: "This is definitely an adaptation that is above full marks. As for the lyrics, I believe everyone present knows more about it than I do, so I will talk about the singing part.

I don't think anyone can give a convincing answer to the debate about which is more important, singing or emotion. But tonight's Hedgehog seemed to have given us a demonstration.

That is, only on the basis of emotional support can the significance of singing skills be highlighted to the greatest extent! "

Although she didn't know what Bian Lang was thinking when he sang this song, she could feel Bian Lang's passion and the courage and sadness that followed, the determination to do something even if he knew he couldn't get it.

As for love, she thinks there is really no such thing as should or should not be, or worth or not. Because just like Bian Lang's song, no matter what Bian Lang went through to write this song, didn't it also leave a deep impression on everyone?

She even felt that the Chinese version adapted by Bian Lang might be the most suitable version for this song.

Bian Lang had the same feeling when he first listened to Meteor.

All I can say is that when Coldplay met Jun Ge, the cover artist, it was the best outcome for both parties.

On the Blue Water Planet, these two versions continue to be passed down as classics in another form.
