Chapter 56
After the singers finished their performances one after another, it was soon Du Ziteng's turn to perform on stage.
The audience also knew that the last one to appear would be the singer who challenged the singer in this episode.
The "Singer" program team has always kept the information of the challenge singer confidential.
Until the singer went on stage, no one at the scene knew who the singer was and what song he was going to sing.
Even the singers participating in the program, except Lin Yixiang, did not know who was about to go on stage.
The mysterious veil that was about to be unveiled made everyone at the scene feel like opening a blind box, which was both exciting and expectant.
The host went on stage and raised the expectations even higher with a few words.
"This episode, we will welcome the third singer to challenge the club."
"He has been in the industry for less than a month."
"His voice is full of vicissitudes. Throughout the decades of Chinese music, I have never heard such a story-telling voice. When I first heard him sing, there were only two words in my mind."
"Amazing!"
"Let's welcome the last singer tonight, A-Du!"
Du Ziteng walked out of the waiting passage and came to the center of the stage, bowing to the crowd around him.
The audience burst into warm shouts and cheers, and the applause was thunderous.
Standing on the stage for the first time, seeing so many people screaming for him, A-Du was a little uncomfortable.
His right hand holding the microphone was shaking slightly because he was holding it too hard.
It was impossible to say that he was not nervous.
He remembered the little trick Qiao Sheng had given him before, and looked around.
He saw two people in the crowd at a glance.
Qiao Sheng held Du Fei and waved to him, and Du Fei made a cheering gesture to him.
It is said that children are the motivation of parents. The tension in Du Ziteng's heart disappeared at once.
What is there to be nervous about? Isn't singing on the stage his dream?
What is there to be afraid of? Is there anything more terrible than a hard life?
From singing on the street to here, I don't plan to go back!
Singing on the street, facing the indifferent crowd, but here, there are enthusiastic and cheering audiences!
The audience that truly belongs to him!
Du Ziteng took a deep breath and nodded to the band teacher, indicating that he was ready.
The song information appeared.
"Andy"
Lyrics: Lao Qiao
Music: Lao Qiao
Singing: Adu
Backstage of the program group, seeing the name of the lyricist and composer, Wang Siyue, who had originally looked indifferent, stood up from the sofa.
Damn, why is it this Lao Qiao again!
The fierce drum beats sounded, Du Ziteng raised the microphone in his hand, and as soon as the prelude ended, his hoarse voice spread from the microphone to the whole audience.
"How long have you not seen that sea?
How well do you know yourself now?
Always refuse to admit defeat,
Always be faster than others,
Do you have the future you want in front of you?"
With his unique voice, the image of a confused man appeared in everyone's mind in just a few words at the beginning.
He stood at the crossroads, with people flowing and cars speeding around him, but he didn't know where to go.
Just like Du Ziteng in the past, he was at a loss facing his parents who abandoned him and his company.
He seemed to be singing about himself, and seemed to be singing about everyone.
"Thinking of our past,
It makes people sigh.
I hope all good friends can stand up.
And the girl you once,
madly fell in love with,
Will it still be unforgettable in a few years?"
Every song is a story, and the singer is the one telling the story.
With simple lyrics and simple melody, Du Ziteng has already evoked the memories in everyone's heart.
What is life?
Life is all about memories, and love and friendship are the main themes.
Those memories that are wonderful, happy, sad, or bitter, those scenes that have died in the long river of time, are our lives.
Just when everyone thought that this was another sad song about the past, the chorus appeared.
"But Andy, there is no need for reason to live.
Anyone can,
temporarily lose courage.
The uneasy world outside,
the turbulent mood,
cannot extinguish the fiery heart you once had."
There is no great truth, I won't tell you how to live your life, how to live your whole life.
In Du Ziteng's singing, I only empathize with you.
There are so many reasons for many things.
Even if you understand a lot of reasons, it is hard to
Do you think you can live a good life?
It's okay, I understand you.
I'm not here to persuade you, I just want to curse this fucked up world with you.
"I really don't know how to express my love,
but I care about everyone's expectations of me.
An ordinary character,
standing on a small stage,
I want to say it so bravely."
When this lyric appeared, everyone suddenly realized that Ah Du was singing about himself.
All the words seemed to be telling a friend named Andy not to be discouraged, not to lose courage for a moment of confusion, as long as our burning heart is not extinguished, these are temporary.
But what if my heart is extinguished?
It doesn't matter, then live irrationally, living does not need reason!
Does life need any ideals?
Yes, and no.
You can set ambitious goals for yourself, and you can pursue your dreams with the most sincere heart.
But that's your business.
Can't you live without ideals and goals?
You can live well.
Many people have already done their best to support their families, and you still want people to pursue their dreams?
There is a passage that goes like this.
How different is our world?
You seem to live on a luxury cruise ship, with everything on board, endless food and wine to eat and drink.
There are many people who are as lucky as you to board the ship.
I am floating on the sea with a piece of driftwood, not only in danger of drowning at any time, but also worried about whether there will be sharks passing by.
But you raised your glass and said to me, look, the moonlight is so beautiful tonight. Why don’t you take the time to look at it?
The world is inherently unfair, and living is already tiring, and you still want to reason with me?
At the end of the song, when it comes to "But Andy", there is no lyrics behind it, but Ah Du hums loudly.
This high note gives people the feeling that it is like a frustrated and confused person shouting at life.
Facing the claws of fate, Ah Du did not choose to compromise and give up, but shouted at him with the same anger: "Come on!"
Du Ziteng's stage performance ended, and the audience gave him warm and excited applause.
Du Ziteng's voice is already very contagious, and the shock brought to the audience by the live singing is even more intense.
He sang about the confusion and fear of a man in his life from youth to maturity, struggling with the current situation and the confusion about the future world.
At the same time, he also borrowed the identity of a friend to encourage himself to stand up again, fight with fate, and fight with life.
After the singing, Du Ziteng bowed deeply on the stage.
When he stood up, tears were already in his eyes.
When he chose the song, he did not choose "Anhe Bridge" which had just become popular, nor did he choose "He Must Love You Very Much", which had the best performance on the music platform.
At Qiao Sheng's suggestion, he resolutely chose "Andy".
After so many years of decline, he was able to stand on the stage again, and this song was undoubtedly the most suitable.
"Use this song to say goodbye to the past self and welcome a brand new Adu." Qiao Sheng said so to him.
He did it.
Listening to the enthusiastic cheers of the audience and seeing Du Fei clapping wildly in Qiao Sheng's arms, Adu couldn't hold back the tears in his eyes and rolled down his cheeks.
From today on, he is no longer the construction worker Du Ziteng, but the singer Adu!
"Hello everyone, I am the singer Adu!"
