Chapter 713, Issue 2, Page 9
The interlude, unique to the electronic dance music genre, has a very strong sense of rhythm.
In an instant, it felt like being at a disco.
Chen Yubai was already singing with great enthusiasm, and during the interlude, he raised his hand and shouted:
"Put your hands up!"
The camera then pans to reveal a large number of people responding to the call.
Some people even turned on their phone lights.
The twinkling lights in the audience seats resembled the stars in the night sky.
Even Lydia and her entourage of guests joined in the fun.
Immediately following was a chant by Chen Yubai:
'ohhhh——oh——'
It's also a very memorable melody.
'How many years have passed? / It seems as if they are still here.'
My father said...
'oh——'
'When thunder clouds start pouring down'
'Light a fire they cant put out'
When thunderclouds gather and turn into rain.
'Igniting an inextinguishable flame'
'Carve your name into those shining stars'
'Engrave your name beneath the shining stars'
Chen Yubai was delighted to receive such a positive response from the audience. She felt more relaxed and at ease while singing, and her whole being seemed to be glowing.
It's clear that he's enjoying the stage more and more.
'He said go adventure far beyond these shores'
He said, "Go on a long voyage, cross the coast."
'Don't forsake this life of yours'
Don't waste your life.
'Ill guide you home no matter where you are'
'Wherever you are, I will guide you home.'
Chen Yubai's rendition of those lyrics once again energized the audience.
The applause and cheers during the interlude were deafening.
'These are the nights that never die'
……
'oh——'
When Chen Yubai sang again, all the audience members sang along in unison.
The production team captured this segment very well.
The unified chanting resounded throughout the venue.
The viewers were almost misled and forgot that this was a music program, not a live concert recording!
Perhaps it was because they couldn't be there in person that they weren't swayed into singing along.
But the subconscious reactions of the audience speak for themselves.
"I never expected it to be dance music."
"Chen Yubai sang very well. I think he may have forgotten that he was not at a concert or music festival."
As Lu Wanxing spoke, she turned back and gave Lu Wantang a thumbs up, "But the reason he performed so well is because you wrote such a good song, sister."
Lu Wantang raised an eyebrow, focusing on gnawing on her duck neck, without saying a word.
She is very familiar with all the songs she gives out.
This naturally includes the song "The Nights".
In a parallel world, this song entered the top ten of singles charts in many countries as soon as it was released, and repeatedly won the number one spot in the dance music category.
It was later used in sports programs and events, becoming one of the most inspiring works.
Ten years later, the song became popular again, and its viewership on a certain video platform exceeded 20 billion.
Its popularity and buzz are self-evident.
The fact that it has remained popular and relevant for ten years proves that this song is deeply rooted in people's hearts and can withstand the test of time.
The music on stage gradually faded away.
Amid applause and cheers, Chen Yubai raised his hand, "Let's do it again!"
He held the microphone and faced the audience.
'oh——oh——'
A unified chanting sound spontaneously arose.
The melody is exactly the same as before.
Someone even sang a line from the chorus.
Chen Yubai was moved and excited, and also very grateful to the audience.
He bowed several times in a row.
"thank you all!"
"Thank you!"
He clasped his hands together, his expression deeply moved.
Xiwen stepped in at the opportune moment: "It seems our Chen had a very enjoyable time tonight."
“Yes,” Chen Yubai replied with a smile. “I really enjoyed the stage, and the audience’s reaction was fantastic! They must be the best audience members on the show.”
"It seems I should suggest to the production team that they add a Best Listener Award."
After saying that, Xiwen asked, "Your condition got better and better after you went on stage. Did you sing very easily tonight?"
Chen Yubai shook his head: "When I'm immersed in the moment, I forget that it's a competition, but now that I've finished singing, I'm nervous. My hand was shaking a little when I was holding the microphone."
"You did a great job, there's no need to be nervous."
Xiwen offered a word of comfort and then invited the other seven groups of guests to the stage.
Chen Yubai consciously stood to the side.
The others also lined up according to their order of appearance.
"Now is the time to score Chen and do the final statistics."
"Let's take this opportunity to talk about tonight's performance."
Xiwen glanced at everyone and said, "Everyone is welcome to speak freely, such as commenting on the performances of other guests."
Perhaps knowing that several guests were the type to remain silent if possible, Xiwen immediately designated a candidate after finishing her speech:
"So, according to our order of appearance, Metallica will speak first."
The band members immediately pushed out the lead singer and leader.
The captain, still completely bewildered, asked, "What did you say?"
Xiwen chuckled lightly: "Well, let's start by talking about your song selection tonight. Why did you choose this song, and what's the intention behind it?"
Without much hesitation, the lead singer of the metal band said directly:
"It's because tomorrow is the 20th anniversary of the Red and Blue group's debut. I'm a huge fan of theirs, and I have all their albums and official merchandise..."
“I chose this song to pay tribute to them, especially the lead singer. I love his songs very much.”
When it comes to his favorite singers, he seems to have an urge to keep talking.
In the end, it was Xiwen who stopped him from continuing.
Next, Dolly was asked the question.
Dolly was already regretting her sudden mistake and couldn't help but apologize to her fans and listeners.
After offering some words of comfort, Xiwen turned to look at Louis.
"Louis came in first place in the last competition. Did that put a lot of pressure on you?"
Louis nodded: "Yes."
"The audience was very satisfied with your performance last time, and the media repeatedly praised it as a 'god-level live performance.' Does this make you feel disappointed if the performance wasn't as good?"
"No," Louis answered frankly.
"Tell me the reason?"
“I went on stage three times in the last episode, but I only performed my best once. That doesn’t happen often. If I feel disappointed, I will stay disappointed.”
“It seems Louis is in a good mood,” Shivn said. “Are you satisfied with your performance just now?”
Louis nodded: "I like rock and roll, so I enjoy being on stage."
His reaction infuriated those who used his performance in the previous episode to criticize him.
