walk with jimmy

The reporter of "Music Express" is really a good person. When he went back to write the manuscript, he didn't mention the childish offensive and defensive battle under the table.

At the end of the interview, he only emphasized an anecdote from the childhood of James Lemmon, the lead singer of the Planetary Band: [As we all know, Jimmy is a Kop (die-hard Liverpool fan).But what everyone doesn't know is that before he was seven years old, he also practiced his footwork hard, and happily went to Liverpool Kirkby Youth Academy to participate in trial training. It is said that he even kicked forty or fifty kicks without scoring a goal.Thank goodness Liverpool didn't want him. ]

- Thank goodness Liverpool didn't want him.

What the hell!

This is definitely revenge.

When James saw this sentence, his heart was crushed.

He asked with disbelief on his face: "How could he say that? How could he be so cruel to me?"

It was a real childhood tragedy.

Think about it, when you were still fantasizing about wearing a red jersey in the future, running on the stadium at Anfield, leading the whole team to fight for your beloved football club and be unstoppable , and finally won the passionate kiss of the goddess of victory, and added another Champions Cup to the club, but at the next moment, it was tragic to find that he couldn't even kick the football in front of the goal. What an exciting and sad thing.

Seven-year-old James stood in front of the Liverpool Youth Academy and cried miserably.

It wasn't until he found out that no matter how much he cried, the club didn't want him, he was taken home by Old John, sobbing all the way.

Every time he thinks of this incident, James feels unspeakable sourness in his heart.

That feeling is probably similar to being abandoned by your favorite mother, right?Although he has no mother since he was a child.

Therefore, even though he now knows that he really has no football talent, or as a dyslexic who has difficulty coordinating his hands and feet, falls on the ground from time to time when he walks, and what is even more unfortunate is that he has difficulty controlling distance and direction, he is not Too likely to be a football player.

But, not being able to play in my favorite club...

No matter when or why, it was a very sad thing for him.

This Mr. reporter, although he looks quiet, is capable of great things.

So many bad-mouthers never hurt James a hair.

only he...

Heartbroken, bastard!

But everyone was overjoyed.

Theo also added fuel to the fire: "After recording the song another day, let's go play football, Jimmy."

James curled up on the sofa, feeling even more sad all of a sudden: "Get out, kick your ass!"

At this time, Lance stood up, walked over and hugged him comfortingly: "Don't be sad, you are the best lead singer now, Jimmy."

What?What?

It's so rare to hear such words from Lance's mouth!

Think back when they first formed a band, what was this guy talking about?

Only a fool would be willing to team up with this guy?Hahaha, face slaps never stop.

In short, even when you are still sad...

Hearing Lance's affirmative words, James' heart seemed to stop for a moment.

With mixed emotions, he held his breath and stared at the guitarist with those clear green eyes

After getting an affirmative smile, his heart jumped again, and joy also filled his heart. Then, he immediately reciprocated sincerely: "You are also the best guitarist, Lance."

Baldwin and Theo said their real names were vomiting.

Both of them expressed that they couldn't stand this wave of business bragging anymore.

But James believes that these two people just want to hear them say 'you are the best drummer' and 'you are the best bass player' or something.

But stop dreaming!

He is principled, and he will never praise those enemies who laughed at him for failing the trial training!

However, although the bad-hearted and vengeful reporter revealed James' sad things.

But the first wave of publicity for "Music Express" was still very well done.

In the era without the Internet, the channels for many people to obtain information were through the propaganda of magazines and newspapers.

As the most cutting-edge mouthpiece of the music scene at this time, "Music Express" has a strong audience, and even many music lovers subscribe throughout the year. The single quickly aroused the interest of some people. After reading the interview, most readers were curious and considered buying it to listen to it. Some diehard fans immediately expressed their support for the band.

But it's very interesting...

The long-running single, which was not expected by the record company, received a completely polarizing treatment on its first day of release.

Music critics who liked it praised it one after another:

[This is a song that contains a wealth of stories and information. James Lemon's voice is still amazing. He played steadily in the song as always, showing a wild and gorgeous singing voice like quicksilver.And Lance Winfield's guitar Solo performance this time is also very commendable, very skillful, several strong chords support the whole song, it can be said that it has brought us the best blues guitar performance in years .In addition, we can also feel Mr. Lance Winfield's wonderful thoughtfulness hidden in the song structure. A series of piano chords in the background sound and drummer Baldwin's almost flawless bass drum make the original fast-paced rock Songs, showing an unprecedented new style.All in all, this is one of the best albums to buy this year. ]

But on the other hand, Mr. Daly, the music critic who once said that Lance's song was a nursery rhyme, made him angry, still had nothing good to say this time.

His criticism was short, but very poignant and mean: [I heard that Planet has a new single.Oh, the nine minutes and 24 seconds of grandstanding!After I finished listening, I found that the lead singer himself took up about three minutes.As for the remaining 5 minutes, the person disappeared to nowhere. Maybe he was so bored that he went out to buy cigarettes. After all, the guitarist soloed endlessly for five or six minutes, and he stood there Nothing to do... Wait, who can tell me?Why hasn't this band disbanded yet? ]

Forget about Lance.

James was almost pissed off: "What do you mean you went out to buy cigarettes, are you deaf? Can't hear the background music, is there someone's voice? Besides, I tried my best to help rattle the tambourine."

But sometimes it is like this, there is nothing that everyone likes.

Fortunately for the Planetary Band, their single was unexpectedly appreciated by some independent music producers in the music scene.

There was a genre of music in the British music scene at that time, called the Zigzag School.

As the name suggests, it is actually self-admiration.

Simply put, the style of this genre is 'I'm high on my own, so do what you should do'.

Whether it is the behavior style of the band members or the music style, this is the standard.

Not much to say about personal style.

But in terms of music style, what they pursue is to dig out the original color of traditional guitar and enjoy themselves.

Of course, because this music genre is too self-willed and out of touch with the public, there is not much innovation.

At this stage, it has gradually declined.

But the wonderful guitar solo on Planet's long single gave them a little new hope.

Moreover, James and his maverick style since their debut have also been classified as similar by them.

As a result, many people suddenly appeared, praised the single, and took the opportunity to do some music activities to promote their music ideas.These activities are probably, various bands cooperate with each other, perform together, hold a party and so on.

Among them, as the fuse that triggered this event, the Planetary Band inevitably accepted the invitation.

"I'm not too interested, it sounds boring."

In this regard, James’ tone was a bit disdainful: “I have a completely different philosophy from this group of people. I like audiences, and I like people listening to me sing. Of course, no one listens. I must sing as I should, but this Doesn't that mean I should put on a 'you want to hear it or not' attitude, and the audience pays to see this? Aren't they really stupid? No one owes anyone anything, and it's too arrogant to do that."

But now that Lance is writing more and more songs, he also likes to communicate with various so-called music producers more and more.

Moreover, he is also curious about the creative concept of this music school, so he indirectly persuaded everyone to accept the invitation and said: "In any case, these people have spoken well of our single, even if it is from a polite point of view. , we should also accept the invitation, let's go and have a look?"

When everyone heard it, they thought it made sense.

James has no way to refute this reason.

So, they were invited to the party.

When the group held the party, it was said that they had booked a very fashionable bar in London.

But when James went in, he really didn't see where the fashion was.

If there is any difference, it is probably a group of men smoking, drinking and drinking, and a group of beautiful girls wearing super revealing miniskirts are shuttling back and forth inside.

"Here we come!" A person he didn't know came over and greeted enthusiastically.

The four members of the planetary band all looked at this buddy in a little confusion. They couldn't figure out the situation, so they could only choose to nod.

Then, the man said enthusiastically: "You all are waiting, I will arrange for you right away."

"What? Arrange what?" James asked subconsciously.

The next moment, he shut up.

A red-haired girl in a low-cut skirt walked over gracefully, and pushed him down on the chair next to her. Then, she lifted her skirt and sat on his lap generously, smiling. Ask: "Hey, do you want to blow it for you first, or should I take off my skirt now and we can just do it?"

Ouch I fuck!

James was simply shocked.

Lance, who has always been the most pretentious, couldn't hold back anymore. He started coughing next to him, and pushed another girl with his hands, euphemistically saying that he was allergic to perfume.

Baldwin stammered 'I, I have a girlfriend' on the other end; it was Theo, who seemed ready to move.

Maybe he was stunned for about three seconds, but James first refused embarrassingly.

He felt that he was at a disadvantage, and he didn't want to hand it over to a strange woman for the first time, so he said childishly: "I don't choose either, you stand up first."

Later, Theo laughed at him, saying that there was a refusal in his tone, and if the girl persisted, he might lose.

But that's not important, what's important is...

What do you think is the next development?

Upon hearing James chose to refuse.

The girl immediately changed her face, but she reminded her attentively and professionally: "You are paying a group price. Even if you don't do it, we won't refund a portion of the price."

uh...uh...

Well, it makes sense.

Wait, there's a fucking group price?

Long experience.

James was silent for half a minute, and decided to leave the smoky bar immediately.

He asked the elder sister to stand up kindly, then turned and walked out.

The Planetary Band has always been in the same boat.

So, after the others looked at each other, they followed suit.

Everyone was a little embarrassed on the way back.

Maybe a little rascal like Theo is still a little excited.

Then, James was walking, and suddenly stopped.

He turned around, looked at Lance with a pair of green eyes very seriously, and persuaded him sincerely from the bottom of his heart: "Lance, don't care about any shit music ideas, you really can't mess with this group of people And. Let me tell you this, what future will there be for a company that even recruits prostitutes and asks for group buying? "

The author has something to say: [Note] Self-appreciation is still an important part of the British pop music scene. I really don’t want to discredit this genre, haha, but it’s probably not discrediting celebrities who play women.However, it is very troublesome to check the information. Some parts of this article are made up. If there are mistakes, everyone will treat it as a parallel world. Let's have fun!

PS. A lot of music knowledge in my article is scribbled, please ignore it, if there are music students, please forgive me.
