Entertainment: My knife has made the whole world sad

"Milia is still Milia!"

"As soon as this show came out, Milia instantly became the first-class young female singer in Kyushu! She is so popular now!"

"Really are……"

"Digging, everyone is so awesome, I'm already looking forward to Lin Qiu!"

"Lin Qiu won't act like a baby when everyone is expecting her, right?"

"It's impossible, don't worry!"

…

When Milia's performance began, the audience was in full swing!

Before appearing on the program "Kyushu Song Festival", Milia was already well-known in Kyushu. However, once this program started, Milia's popularity increased exponentially and she became one of the dark horses on "Kyushu Song Festival". , if it weren’t for Lin Qiu’s sudden appearance, Milia would definitely benefit the most from this show and be the most dazzling star!

In the first game of the finals, Milia still had a familiar style, but this time the song was also Milia's "big move", an extremely dry rock song that completely ignited the atmosphere of the scene!

"Gitui! When it comes to the finals, everyone except Tang Sheng will explode!"

"No way, live broadcast, only such songs are the most popular. Tang Sheng's choice to perform songs quietly is still rare, but then again, "The Hills" is really good, Lin Qiu is really a genius!"

"It's really fun to hear it today!"

"As expected, Lin Qiu is also a hit song. To be honest, my ears are a little tired."

The three consecutive songs are all music with a very live feel!

After listening to three pieces of music like this in a row, the audience was certainly excited, but their emotions were constantly being consumed.

The songs Lin Qiu sang in the first two episodes, "Bohemian Rhapsody" and "Beat It" are both emotionally intense songs, so the audience couldn't help but be very curious about Lin Qiu's songs in this episode!

And I subconsciously thought that it would be another band-style shocking live performance!

…

"It's time for Lin Qiu!"

"It's time for Lin Qiu!"

"Ah? Are you here?"

"It's here!"

After Milia finished singing, the mood of the audience across Xiazhou instantly rose to a new level!

Almost all the viewers in Xiazhou are Lin Qiu's "iron-blooded supporters". In the team building venue of Chang'an Film and Television Company, many acquaintances put down their mobile phones, took a deep breath, and looked at the big screen seriously.

"Next, let's invite the fifth group of competing singers with applause!"

"Lin Qiu!!"

…

"Milia, you should return to the singer's room."

"Don't worry, wait a moment."

Milia, who got off the stage, was not in a hurry to return to the backstage.

Instead, he stayed at the side of the scene, looking at Lin Qiu on stage with admiration.

As a die-hard fan, Milia doesn't want to miss any opportunity for Lin Qiu to perform live!

All finals songs and rehearsals are kept confidential, so Milia has no idea what kind of songs Lin Qiu will bring to this performance!

There was some excitement at the scene.

Lin Qiu is now the hottest star in the Kyushu music world. Audiences across Kyushu are waiting for Lin Qiu's "next" performance. How can the audience not be excited to see Lin Qiu on stage.

However, the audience in front of the TV was not so happy, because after Lin Qiu came on stage, he entered a GG! !

"Ahhh! Come on GG at the critical moment!!"

"Fuck! Damn Star City TV!"

"Catch Lin Qiu's heat?!"

It would be unfair to use GG this time to say what happened to Star City TV.

Because after Lin Qiu and a group of musicians take the stage, the guitar and bass must be adjusted to a certain extent after they are plugged in to ensure that the performance can be performed correctly, which is different from the way other singers perform.

After a GG period, the camera finally returns!

The scene is also decorated and ready.

Lin Qiu's competition is coming soon!

"coming!"

"finally come."

"Phew! Isn't it a lively song this time?"

"what's the situation!"

Many audience members looked towards the stage and found that the arrangement on the stage was very simple. Lin Qiu and the band's musicians were arranged in the center of the stage, with Lin Qiu on his side and sitting in everyone's seats.

You know, if it is a song with high emotions, like the previous "Beat it", then it is impossible to have a seat for the band.

Is it possible that Lin Qiu is going to be quiet this time?

The audience really couldn't guess what Lin Qiu was thinking, so they could only look at the stage expectantly, waiting for the music to start.

And the name of this song appeared in front of every TV audience in Kyushu!

Hotel California!

…

"Hotel California? What's the name of this song?"

"I do not know……"

"listen and see!"

The audience was filled with anticipation and followed the scene into complete silence.

With the thump thump thump live heartbeat sound effects, Lin Qiu's performance ushered in.

…

Lin Qiu nodded towards the two guitarists Tang Anning, Zhao Chunyang and other musicians, and then plucked the first string of the guitar!

The classic prelude of "Hotel California" instantly transformed into beating notes, spreading across Kyushu.

This song can be said to be a masterpiece completed by the legendary band Eagles in their best condition and combination in the previous life!

It is a diamond-level golden song full of weird and moving melodies!

Just looking at the lyrics, with just a few strokes, it almost swept away all the sadness and confusion of the 1970s!

It ranked 11th in the "Rolling Stone" list of the 100 greatest English songs!

The wonderful prelude attracted the ears of all the listeners almost instantly.

The ears are pregnant!

This is the first reaction of all the listeners.

This quiet and pleasant guitar sound, combined with the not-so-bright drum sound, is presented smoothly with the cheerful notes!

The version played by Lin Qiu is the most classic live version of the Eagles. This version is different from the official version because it has a two-minute prelude.

But this two-minute prelude not only does not make the audience feel any fatigue, but instead makes them want to keep listening like this, because the music is so wonderful!

The originally restless audience at the scene couldn't help but close their eyes with the wonderful prelude of "Hotel California" and enjoy the music brought by Lin Qiu at the scene.

Even Milia was intoxicated. Lin Qiu's music seemed to have an unspeakable magic. Every note was so beautiful!

"Win!"

"Lin Qiu won before he even sang!"

"This song is so damn good! So foul!"

The audience in front of the TV was completely conquered by Lin Qiu, even though Lin Qiu hadn't sung a word yet!

At the scene, Lin Qiu and the musicians around him cooperated almost perfectly. Zhao Chunyang, as one of the most famous guitarists in Xiazhou, was still at ease with the difficult finger-picking of the prelude to "Hotel California".

"The timbre of the nylon strings is so beautiful."

Behind the stage, Tang Sheng was also deeply attracted by this song and exclaimed.

The elegance of the timbre of the nylon strings of the classical guitar is really too foul. As soon as the guitar sounded, the feeling came instantly.

Unknowingly, Lin Qiu and the musicians had played the prelude for more than a minute.

It was just this one minute or so that almost all the audience calmed down from their restless emotions and focused on enjoying the musical feast brought by Lin Qiu.

The prelude of this song may be the longest prelude that the audience has ever heard.

But it does not bring boring, but pleasant and expectant. From the perspective of music theory, the melody of "Hotel California" is just like Canon, using 251 routines to trick humans. This is the law of human hearing.

The sound of guitar and bass flowed out slowly like water.

It put thousands of audiences in another world, a world in a foreign state, that world is elegant, charming and mysterious.

Just when thousands of audiences were enjoying it to the extreme, Lin Qiu's voice came out, and the audiences in Kyushu had goose bumps, and they were completely kneeling!

"On a dark desert hightway"

"Cold wind in my hair"

"Warm smeel of colytas"

"Rising up through the air"

...

The vivid lyrics and the piercing voice once again shocked the audiences in Kyushu!

Before Lin Qiu started singing the first sentence of this song, everyone knew that it was a classic, and after Lin Qiu started singing, they were even more convinced of this!

Listening to Lin Qiu's singing, accompanied by the band's music, the audience seemed to see the world in the song.

Being on the road, everything was speeding.

The vast western highway of Michigan, the beautiful sunset, and the lonely man driving a dilapidated car!

The lyrics of this song are another story.

A complete story.

...

The man in the story saw the flashing lights ahead of the gradually darkening road and had to stay overnight.

A woman stood at the door. The man suddenly turned around and heard the church bell. The man was in a trance for a moment, not knowing whether he had come to heaven or hell.

The woman lit a candle for the man and walked with him, lighting the way for him.

Walking along the corridor, the man seemed to hear the mumbling voices coming from all around, as if they were saying...

"Welcome to the Hotel California!"

"Such a lovely place!"

"Such a lovely face!"

...

Lin Qiu's voice was a little hoarse, but his emotions were so full, and he grasped the momentum of the song to the fullest. Lin Qiu put his hands in his pockets, and his image of being cool and decadent was really too immersive for the audience!

No single piece of music may not satisfy all the audience, but just talking about this one, just talking about the two thousand public judges on the scene, it can be said that no one was not conquered by this song "Hotel California"!

It was really wonderful!

The images in the music are vivid, simple but touching, American country music, folk rock!

And from the song, they can hear the language conveyed in the song, the kind of boredom, decadence, unruly, temptation and the contradictory feeling of wanting to pursue freedom but not being able to resist temptation, which attracts the audience all the time.

"Nice..."

"Too nice!!"

"Fuck! Awesome!!"

After the first paragraph, the shocking feeling came to the audience of Jiuzhou!

Hearing this beautiful, light but deeply emotional music, the audience's feelings are completely different from the previous "Beat it" live, one is moving, the other is quiet!

And Lin Qiu seemed to be transformed into an artist, singing on the stage with charm, and it was a completely different image from the previous one. If the image of the previous one was crazy, then the image of this one was fascinating!

Lin Qiu's singing voice was floating, and it didn't stop.

Immediately after the first paragraph, the story of "Hotel California" continued.

Just when all the listeners thought that this was just a music story with a strong country feel, the lyrics contained other meanings in the song without any dramatic changes in mood!

There are many rooms in the California Hotel, and naturally all of them are occupied by travelers.

They danced in the yard, and it was very lively.

In the sweet summer night, everyone was sweating profusely, but everyone was crazy and enjoying the joy of the moment.

Lin Qiu strummed the strings of the guitar and brought a few notes again.

At the same time, he sang:

"Mirrors on the ceiling"

"Pink champage on ice"

"She said:"

"We are all just prisoners here"

"of our own device (be responsible for your own desires)"

...

Everyone came here voluntarily, forgetting their troubles and everything.

Raised the fire of carnival, wielded the steel knife, but could not kill the demon in their hearts!

This is a carnival that can never be stopped, and Hotel California is not a simple hotel, but a hotel of desire, a hotel that can never be escaped!

At this moment, the audience can roughly understand what kind of emotions Lin Qiu conveyed through the song, but in a short time, they also have no way to analyze it carefully. This song has too many unusual places!

If you really want to pursue the profound meaning of it, you can deduce many things.

Maybe many of them are not what the creator wants to express.

It's like the question in the test paper, asking "Why is the curtain blue in the author's text", maybe when the author writes it again, the curtain is blue, so there is no need to over-interpret it.

There are many versions of interpretations of "Hotel California".

One interpretation is to describe This song is about the social chaos in the state of Missouri at that time, and the rampant drug addicts.

There is also an interpretation that people at that time were full of yearning and pursuit for the freedom of ideals and spiritual world.

But what can be confirmed is that this is a song that seems to be singing a story, but it expresses thoughts and spirits.

The reason why this song "Hotel California" has been popular for 30 years and has become a classic is that it is regarded as one of the bibles of country music.

In addition to the extremely meaningful lyrics, it is also due to the fact that the lead singer's highly textured singing voice touched people's inner strings.

Coupled with the perfect interpretation of the band, the pure guitar, the heavy and powerful bass drum, and the real reproduction of the live feeling, the cooperation of multiple instruments reached the peak of that year.

Even if we don't pursue the connotation of the lyrics, just say that this melody is also too pleasant!

It is difficult for listeners to listen to this song and not be caught by the moving melody of this song, calm down and enjoy the music.

Seven minutes of performance.

Let the Kyushu audience open their eyes again and feel as if they were in another world.
