"bon-iver? But why did you think of singing this song?"
Levine was stunned for a moment.
Yes, why?
Maybe it's because of Mickey, he thinks he doesn't care, he thinks he's forgotten long ago, he thinks he's used to it, but he still overestimates himself; maybe it's because of reality, he embraces talent but gets stuck in reality, thinks he's talented but it's just a ballad wave Just a mediocre part.
Maybe it's because Jane, the woman she deeply loves, made different choices on the path of her dream. She chose Jim, and he chose faith, and finally parted ways; maybe it's because tonight is suitable for memories, and I have been wandering for a long time. , After being alone for a long time, it will always start to be sentimental, this is the folk song——
"Forget it, what happened to this lost love?"
Interestingly, when people mention the song "skinny-love", they think it is the version of British independent singer Birdy. This little girl's singing is fresh and pleasant, sad and gentle. , with a unique charm, moved countless people, especially after it was broadcast as an episode in "The Vampire Diaries", it became the love of teenagers, which also made Bird famous overnight.
But in fact, Bird is not the original singer, but a cover.
The original version is from bon-iver, which was included in his personal non-studio album in 2007, and moved countless people. Compared with Bird's green and girly greenness and sadness, the chic and vicissitudes of the original version endow the song with a different flavor, and when you taste it carefully, it is like smoke lingering at your fingertips, lingering.
Just sitting on the stage, this melody appeared in his mind. As he said, a song that will never be trendy or outdated is a ballad. In that simple and light chord, the flow of time goes back little by little, looking for the broken fragments and dark corners in the memory, singing and singing, and getting old without knowing it.
"Why?" is a good question and a stupid one.
The corners of Le Vern's mouth twitched slightly, and a hint of amusement slipped through his eyes, "Don't you think, this is very suitable for tonight's atmosphere? In the kerosene lamp bar, how many demises of lost loves are recorded, and then Witnessed the birth of a lost love."
It was here that he and Jane met.
The confusion in his heart tumbled gently, and then settled down again. He teased easily in an uninhibited tone. He could hear low laughter, whistles, and vulgar discussions in the bar. "Oh my god, my god, my god." He hummed the tune in the melody again, but the cloudy and light singing voice concealed a fuss-like exaggeration, and the low laughter turned into a roar of laughter.
"'Charlie Boy', come on 'Charlie Boy'."
Someone in the crowd called out, it was Woody Allen. Everyone turned their attention, but the little old man was still hiding in the darkness, showing half of his face, waving his right hand, and shouting stubbornly, "How is it, 'Charlie Boy'?"
It's a song from the Don Quixote album, and it's Renly's first performance at Pioneer Village.
For most people, this song is unfamiliar. First, it didn't hit the charts, secondly, there was no publicity. Thirdly, there was no award. It was buried in the entire album and was not conspicuous at all. But in fact, the song is famous in the pioneer village.
Because the song was about the Vietnam War. At that time, just because of the president's words, countless young people rushed to the battlefield. It was not until 30 years later that people realized that the so-called Vietnam War was just a hoax.
"Boy Charlie, don't go to the battlefield." This is what the song sings. There are traces of history and emotional scars between the lines, but the clear and translucent guitar strings have ripples in their minds, touching countless real music hobbies. It also touched countless people who have experienced that crazy era.
Later, Renly starred in "War in the Pacific", and this "Charlie Boy" became a true portrayal of Eugene's change of mind.
Today, Woody chose this song alone, but it echoes the "hang me, oh, hang me" just now. Folk wave...
Both Ethan and Joel exchanged glances. They never knew the song "Charlie Boy", and they didn't even know that Renly's creation coincided with the wave of folk songs in the 1960s. It was even more profound than they had imagined, and vaguely, the two of them were also looking forward to it.
Levine raised his eyes and looked at the source of the sound. Half bright and half dark, his vision was not real. He couldn't recognize the face of the person who ordered the song. At a glance, he said jokingly, "I don't know, when the kerosene lamp bar started to order songs. This is not karaoke."
The sarcastic tone was full of uninhibited and rebellious, and he looked around with his slightly narrowed eyes, then shrugged his shoulders and chuckled in self-deprecation, "But I guess, I have no choice, I still owe Papi How about three beers. Is that right, Papi?"
"Six bottles, bastard." There was a ruthless rant from the direction of the bar, and everyone in the bar burst into laughter.
Le Verne still didn't care, "Since Poppy doesn't mind being a karaoke here, I don't think I have any reason to refuse. Kennedy will definitely not be happy to hear this song, so everyone's best to keep it a secret, I haven't done it yet
Preparation of the rifle. "
After he finished complaining, Levine drew the strings again, and the rushing and translucent musical symbols were bathed in the spring breeze. It didn't seem to be any different, but it seemed that everything was different, and then immersed in this little by little. Amid the melody, John-Kennedy's speech calling for the nation to join the Vietnam War seems to still be playing on the radio.
It is 1961 now, but no one knows that two years later, Kennedy will be shot and die young; after that, the United States will also be mired in the quagmire of the Vietnam War, unable to extricate itself.
...
One song after another, the entire kerosene lamp bar was intoxicated. When the performance ended, people still seemed unable to come out, but were silent in the madness and beauty of that era. Now people finally understand it faintly. , why the 1960s belonged to the era of folk songs, and why there are no more talented and talented artists now.
There is bitterness in happiness, and sorrow in happiness. The performance was over, but people still stayed in the bar, reluctant to leave for a long time.
LeVern left the stage, came to the side, and saw Stanley and George sitting side by side at a glance.
"Thank you." Stanley said with a smile, his slightly red eyes revealing his inner turmoil and excitement, "You should know that these audiences are here for you. Those classics that have long been annihilated in the long river of history. , and now it's starting to shine again. It's a good thing, it's a good thing."
Stanley nodded again and again, repeating in a low voice, without noticing that it was not Renly who was standing in front of him, but Le Verne.
"It's hard work." George raised the beer in his hand and paid tribute.
After tonight's filming is over, there is actually no need for Renly to continue the performance, because all the audience present today will be paid as extras, which is their job; but in order to express gratitude, Renly chose to take the stage. Had an hour-long show and truly shared a fantastic evening with the fans.
Levine twitched the corners of his mouth, "For a singer, only standing there is alive. So..." He shrugged and didn't continue to speak. Everything was silent, but the words seemed meaningful. .
"Sorry, can we please?" Ethan's intrusion interrupted the conversation between them, and Joel was unreasonable and couldn't wait to pull LeVine and turned around and left, watching Stanley and George helpless With a smile, Ethan spread his hands to express his apology, and then hurriedly turned around and chased after him.
"'Bad Love', that song is bon-iver? Right? What about 'Charlie Boys'? Is this song yours?" Joel asked eagerly, only to see Le Verne nodded to indicate Confirmed, Joel continued, "So, can we use it? I mean, in this movie? As a performance, or as a soundtrack?"
"I don't think it's a good idea." Le Verne shook his head, "Look, these two songs were created later, they don't fit the style of the 1960s, although the content and style seem to be somewhat similar, But...that's folk. If you want to use it behind the scenes, or at a concert later, it's absolutely fine, but in a movie? That's a bad idea."
Le Vern told the truth, looking at Joel and ready to refute, he then said, "However, if you insist, I have no problem. As for bon-iver, you should call and ask for his opinion."
"Aren't you friends with him?" Joel pressed.
"No, it's not," Levine said earnestly. "If you could introduce us, I'd be more than happy to."
Looking at Ethan and Joel who were in deep thought, Le Verne patted their shoulders, "I'll go to take a rest, you can call me again if you have anything." After that, Le Verne turned around and moved towards Paul He walked over to where Annie was, with a big smile on his face, and started to say hello from a distance, "How is it, do you still like the performance?"
"Jesus Christ, you're a lunatic," Paul exclaimed, standing up and giving him a big hug, smiling all over his face.
But Annie didn't make any movement, and Levine couldn't help but froze slightly, "Annie? What's wrong? Don't you like the performance just now?"
Annie pouted, shook her head, then folded her hands in front of her chest, and shrank back, as if she was dodging Levine and approaching Paul. Such a movement was confusing, and then Annie shrugged. He said angrily, "You're not Renly, you're not." After glancing at him, he said firmly again, "I know, you're not, you're not..." As he spoke, those eyes were stained with a A thin layer of water mist.
The completely vanished line between pioneer village and kerosene lamp bar, the blurred line between the sixties and the real contemporary, has finally resurfaced.
