Free heart

Shen Xiaoxiao held a sneer at Shen Ying, Gu Hongkai and his like's vassalism and elegance, playing melancholy (blues) jazz here.I thought to myself, "You guys want to play with melancholy, right? No problem, then I will carry on with melancholy to the end. I would like to see how far you can play with melancholy."

When this song "Angel's Room" was sung by American singer Mary Elizabeth McGlynn and she perfectly sang it as the theme song of the Japanese horror survival game "Silent Hill 4: Chamber of Secrets", she found that The first song has infected the emotions of everyone present.

She knew that although this song was not the best piece of music in Gothic music, nor did it perfectly express the dark and death aesthetics advocated by Gothic music, but at least she felt that she sang a song that could A fantasy world where people escape from reality, a dark and romantic world.

At this time, she thought that the words of the bar owner Eric were quite pertinent.Eric said, "Maybe, this song with a gothic musical style is not suitable for singing here."

Holding a glass of pop tequila, respecting everyone present, "I'm sorry, I didn't expect this song to bring you such a bad mood."

Zhou Lin also picked up her own cocktail glass and looked at her quietly, "Xiao Xiao, you are really capable! Tell yourself, why do you want to make such a good atmosphere like this?"

Shen Ying shook his head and said, "What kind of music style is this? I don't think it can be considered a mainstream style, right?"

Gu Hongkai also picked up his whiskey glass and asked, "Miss Shen, I know that my English is not good, and I don't quite understand the meaning of the lyrics you sang. But I think the melody of this song seems to have a kind of Feelings of terror, depression and hopelessness."

Shen Xiaoxiao took a sip of the tequila in his glass, and said calmly, "Mr. Gu is right. Everyone, this song does have Gothic music, that is, the style of Gothic rock. Simple It can be said that gothic music shows a yearning for black and death aesthetics, full of artistic temperament. It is not only a music type, but also an attitude towards life.”

"Hey, how did you come up with the idea of ​​singing this song?" Zhou Lin asked.

"Hehehe...! When Mr. Gu introduced this bar to me, he seemed to like the blues and jazz here very much. So, I think since you like to play melancholy, why don't we play it harder." Xiao Xiao said.

"Miss Shen, I do like listening to blues and jazz, but I never said I like playing melancholy." Gu Hongkai explained.

"Come on, I explained another meaning of the blues earlier: blues. Doesn't that mean you like listening to blues jazz?"

"But...but..."

Shen Xiaoxiao said bluntly again, "I know, Mr. Gu just likes the atmosphere of listening to blues jazz and drinking whiskey. It is not clear how blues jazz came about or who sang it. Don't care, do you?"

Gu Hongkai thought about it carefully, and it seems that this is indeed the case.Then he said with a slight smile, "Miss Shen is quite right. After all, blues and jazz is a foreign product, and it was not invented by the Chinese, right?"

Shen Ying smiled, "For laymen to watch the fun, for professionals to watch the way! Tonight really opened my eyes, didn't it, Xiaoxiao?"

Zhou Lin didn't know what he meant, and asked in a low voice, "What are you an expert, an outsider? What are you talking about?"

"Linlin, Hongkai's busy work is for nothing tonight."

"You mean, he wants to pursue Xiaoxiao?"

"Well, let's talk when we go back."

Zhou Lin nodded, and asked Xiao Xiao deliberately, "Hey, what do you think should be done? How could you ruin the atmosphere tonight just by singing a song?"

Shen Xiaoxiao cocked her mouth, and after thinking about it, she said, "To express my apology to you, let me sing another song, how about it?"

"Hey, you don't want to sing some gothic song again, do you? To be honest, I'm a little afraid of you now."

"Heck, what are you afraid of me doing? Well, I can't sing special songs anymore, I'll sing an alternative rock song for everyone. This time it's not playing the piano, but playing it with an electric guitar."

Speaking of playing the piano, Zhou Lin's topic shifted from Gothic songs to small musical instrument skills.Some excitedly asked, "Hey, it's been so long since I've been back, and this is the first time I've seen you play the piano. How did you learn it?"

Following the topic, Gu Hongkai also asked, "Miss Shen, I didn't expect you to be versatile!"

Shen Xiaoxiao said with a smile, "Thank you! In fact, besides the piano, I can also play the guitar, bass, drums, and keyboard. It's just that I like playing the electric guitar the most."

Holding the wine glass, Shen Ying asked, "Since you are so good at playing music? When you were in New York, no record company approached you?"

"Of course there is, but the record company hopes that my music MV will have a marketable effect."

"What effect?"

"Well, how should I put it? It's wearing extremely revealing clothes, shaking breasts and buttocks in front of the camera. Anyway, I personally feel that this is not like shooting a music MV, but more like shooting a promotional video for an adult pornographic film. "

"No way? American record companies will make this kind of stuff?"

"Of course. Because the market response to this kind of thing is very good after it is shot, and it can make a lot of money for the record company."

"How can it be done? This kind of thing is definitely not allowed to be photographed." Shen Ying said with righteous indignation.

"So, I never went to the record company again." Shen Xiaoxiao said.

Gu Hongkai also said, "Yes, yes, how can a little singing girl take pictures of this kind of thing?"

Zhou Lin touched Xiao Xiao's shoulder with her shoulder, "Now, I know why you want to sing in the bar."

Shen Xiaoxiao giggled, "Why?"

"Well, because you can sing whatever you want, and you don't have to dress up like that."

"What does it look like?"

"It's just...the clothes you said you were wearing in the promotional video."

Xiaoxiao whispered in her ear, "Oh, you want to try that kind of clothes too?"

While talking in his ear, Zhou Lin pinched the other person's waist, "I'm going to kill you! I wouldn't wear that kind of clothes even if I was killed!"

"If you want to wear it, you can wear it in New York. How about any women's store?"

"Shut up! If you keep talking, I'll ask Shen Ying to accompany you to New York."

"Okay! At that time, I will definitely take him to a strip-dancing nightclub and let him experience the charm of a free society."

"You...! Little girl, I think you want to piss your mother off on purpose."

Shen Xiaoxiao said, "Don't worry, you won't die of anger! Zhou Lin, the band's performance is coming to an end, do you want to listen to another song?"
