Chapter 58 Mercury Story
In the center of the stage, there was a simple high stool, and Ye Zhiqiu sat halfway on it.
""Mercury", this is a song about secret love, I hope everyone likes it."
When saying this, Ye Zhiqiu looked at Yu Caiwei.
Yu Caiwei noticed Ye Zhiqiu's gaze, her face turned slightly red, and she looked away.
Ye Zhiqiu's brief introduction left everyone stunned.
Mercury? What does it have to do with the theme of "encounter"? How does it have to do with secret love?
Li Kun, Li Guojian, and Chen Dan looked at each other in confusion, not to mention the public judges in the audience.
The background of the stage turned into a starry universe. A huge sky-blue planet slowly rotated along a fixed orbit in the vast universe. There seemed to be an indescribable sense of vastness and loneliness in the silence.
Along with the soft piano accompaniment, Ye Zhiqiu's slightly deep singing voice sounded.
【Fascinated by your eyes
The Milky Way has traces to follow
Through the gap in time
it is still true
Attract my trajectory]
There is not too much emotional expression, the first few lyrics are calm, but the audience is even more confused.
What the hell? It seems to really refer to Mercury in the universe?
Can we not play something so esoteric?
At this time, Li Guojian, the eldest among the judges, his eyes flashed slightly, and his attention was gradually attracted by the singing.
Yu Caiwei at the judges' table stared blankly at Ye Zhiqiu, whose eyes were slightly lowered and singing in a low voice in the center of the stage.
【How far do you have to go to enter your heart?
How long will it take before I can get close to you?
So close yet so far
The person you can't get close to
Also waiting to meet you
orbiting planets
How could this be
have you】
The chorus ended and the song's section A had been sung. From beginning to end, most of the audience was still in a state of confusion.
The huge planet rotating in a fixed orbit was repeated over and over in the background. The cold, slightly depressing lyrics and stage style left many viewers at a loss.
However, some people in the audience still understood the meaning of Ye Zhiqiu's lyrics.
Yu Caiwei's water-cut eyes were already filled with the figure of the person in the center of the stage.
Li Guojian and Chen Dan's eyes changed from confusion at first to seeming to realize it. After Ye Zhiqiu finished singing the chorus, they suddenly realized that they were looking at Ye Zhiqiu as if they were looking at a monster.
"So that's it! I understand!"
Li Su looked excited and couldn't help shouting, "Genius! Brother Ye is a genius!"
The doubtful eyes of many players fell on Li Su.
Wang Nanchen snorted coldly and was about to say something when he suddenly noticed that a camera was filming and stopped again.
"Li Su, what is this song about?" Ding Jie, who was outspoken, asked directly, "Why do I feel so confused when I listen to it? I really want to understand something, but I can't always grasp it."
Li Su said with an enthusiastic face: "Sister Ding Jie, the name of the song is Mercury!"
"Speak humanly!" Ding Jie was speechless. She knew the name of the song!
Li Su was about to speak when Ye Zhiqiu's B-section singing had already begun. He quickly stopped and focused his attention back on the screen.
Ding Jie stomped her foot angrily, looking at Ye Zhiqiu who was singing quietly in the center of the dazzling Milky Way on the screen, a feeling of self-doubt arose in her heart.
It seems that my IQ has been suppressed? I can’t even understand the song. I’m so angry!
Many players who quietly pricked up their ears also sighed secretly.
We don’t understand either!
In the eyes of admiration, confusion, and confusion, Ye Zhiqiu's singing also reached the end of the song.
【How to explore
How lucky to be
Only then can I make you realize that you are not alone
When I can still fly with you again
Traveling around is boring
At least you can
be with you】
The last lyrics were sung slowly, slightly depressingly, and the melancholy melody stopped.
Ye Zhiqiu put down the phone, stood up, and bowed slightly.
The public judging panel burst into moderate applause. However, in the judging panel, Li Guojian, Chen Dan and Yu Caiwei had already stood up and applauded.
Li Kun glanced at the three judges standing next to him, seemed to think for half a second, and quickly stood up.
All four judges stood up and applauded!
Everyone's eyes widened in surprise when they saw this scene. You must know that it must be an extremely excellent work that can make the judges stand up and applaud.
However, this song seems to be very ordinary, and a big question mark flashes in everyone's mind.
During the judges' comment period, Li Kun was the first to say: "I'll go first. The arrangement is very mature and the lyrics are well written. But one thing, I admit that I don't understand this song. Can you explain it?"
"The person who is so close but far away but cannot get close is also waiting to meet you."
"This lyric should correspond to the theme of this issue of 'Encounter', but where does 'secret love' come from?"
Li Kun's question brought out the thoughts of many people.
Ye Zhiqiu was about to answer, but Li Guojian said before him: "If my guess is correct, it must be Mercury."
Ye Zhiqiu smiled and nodded, and Li Kun said anxiously: "Hey, don't be too pretentious. I'm as curious as a cat scratching my head. What's the mystery behind this Mercury?"
Li Guojian smiled and said: "I will give you my personal understanding. I don't know if it is accurate or not."
"This song should be about the relationship between Mercury and the sun. Mercury is the closest planet to the sun, but it can only move along its own fixed orbit and cannot escape from the orbit, nor can it get closer to the sun. This
This is probably the origin of the lyrics 'So close, so close, but so close, but you can't get close'."
"People who don't understand this may think this song is ordinary at first listen, but it is this simple music method combined with the slightly cold science fiction theme that combines the warm feelings of secret love and wanting to get close to each other.
Emotions bring it out."
Li Guojian sighed and said: "From this perspective, Zhiqiu, you are a genius."
After Li Guojian finished speaking, the whole place fell into a dead silence.
So that’s it! There was a sudden realization in everyone’s heart.
After being able to understand it, some of the incomprehensible little noises in the lyrics just now seemed to have become unique fragments, and an idea flashed through everyone's mind.
I really want to listen to it again!
Also, my score just now was lower!
In the waiting area for the contestants, many contestants had expressions of shock and doubt on their faces.
The universe, encounter, and secret love are combined in such a harmonious way that there is no sudden feeling at all. What kind of imagination is this?!
Is it true that I am competing on the same stage with such a person?
Why can the referee leave the game?
At this time, Chen Dan spoke up: "You have finished speaking, and I haven't asked Xiaoye yet."
"Xiaoye, is Teacher Li Guojian's understanding correct? You, the creator, need to interpret it."
"Teacher Li Guojian is right. This song talks about the intangible relationship between Mercury and the sun, which is suddenly near and far away." Ye Zhiqiu said with a smile.
"However, there is another way to understand this song."
Ye Zhiqiu's words stunned everyone, and Li Guojian's face also froze as if he had guessed a big prize.
