No
If you have this skill, why give it to Gan Yanyu? Why give it to me? !
Don’t you know who needs to be calmer when playing a game? !
The skill that is most suitable for Gan Yanyu has fallen into Lin Tian’s hands.
Forced calmness is not strong or weak.
Because Lin Tian used to know it.
It’s just that it’s easy to get it everywhere, and the usage scenarios are relatively limited. Generally, it can only be used by one person, in a room, and preferably with a pack of tissues next to it.
Even if Lin Tian wants to use it on stage, morality and rule of law may not allow it.
Men feel inferior when they see it, and women are greedy when they see it, and no one listens to the performance properly.
But it’s different if you have a skill, there is no restriction in this regard.
If it can be used on stage, this skill is very strong.
During the performance, if you feel that your emotions are not right, you can use it to refresh your state and complete the performance in a more rational manner.
This is very important.
When playing with a mental patient like Gan Yanyu, it is easy to be dragged down with your spirit and reason. There is a [Forced Calmness], which is equivalent to having a life-saving insurance.
However, this skill cannot be used casually.
Performance sometimes requires a little immersive emotional substitution. If you force calmness at the climax, it may ruin the whole music.
The specifics depend on the usage scenario.
"."
Lin Tian realized that there was no additional theme for this task.
But there was a requirement: 98% satisfaction of the audience.
The judges are also considered the audience, right?
That is to make almost all the audience, including the judges, feel satisfied.
So difficult.
Not to mention the music, everyone has different tastes, and it is impossible to satisfy everyone. The judges on the scene are also complicated.
There are also guys like Tuoba Jianhui who clearly stated that they don’t like Gan Yanyu.
Lin Tian thought for a while.
It is necessary to come up with a "hard enough" song that can allow Gan Yanyu to show enough strength.
Also, it cannot be too "deep" and cannot be as obscure as "Cello Concerto in E Minor". It is necessary to ensure that all the audience present can feel the emotions in it.
How to choose?
Lin Tian was in a dilemma.
The topic essay is so simple. Given the required emotions, it becomes easier for Lin Tian to find a song.
Without the topic, Lin Tian became hesitant.
After all, this is a song to be performed at the Yingqin Cup. It is a matter of great importance. Lin Tian dare not be casual.
It's like, if Lin Tian can come up with a new song at the Star Cup, a song with a less extreme style, the ending may be really different.
According to He Zhichen's data analysis later.
At that time, Gan Yanyu was just a little bit away from winning the championship.
Although the final conclusion can barely make Gan Yanyu optimistic again, losing the championship has become a fact. Thinking about it still feels both distressed and helpless.
Wait,
Almost?
This feeling
Lin Tian suddenly had an idea.
Got it!
He quickly wrote down the name of the song in his notebook-
"Por Una Cabeza".
This song is quite interesting.
It was first created by Argentine composer Carlos Gardel and poet Alejandro Rodrigo in 1935.
This is a very famous tango music. It was originally a song, and later it was turned into pure music by countless people.
Its beautiful melody and unique tango rhythm, even in 2024, are absolutely not outdated and can still be sought after by young people.
Just like the fans of Moonlight and Cat like to mention:
According to the release rules of a deep song and an upper music.
The next song should also be the music that the public likes to hear and see.
This song must be able to satisfy them.
The next day, Lin Tian and Gan Yanyu made an appointment to record in a cafe.
"."
"~"
Almost as soon as the melody of the song sounded.
After trying to play a section, the girl's face immediately showed a look of surprise.
"Lin Tian, this new song you wrote is so interesting! What's the name?"
"Por Una Cabeza."
Seeing Gan Yanyu's expression, Lin Tian knew that he had chosen the right song.
This song not only has an interesting melody, but also has a bit of gray humor in the story.
In the earliest version with lyrics, the song describes a gambler's attitude towards life.
This gambler compares life to horse racing, and every time he bets on horses, he is only one step away from winning the race.
The name "por una cabeza" means "only one step away".
The lyrics are full of irony and self-mockery, showing the gambler's optimistic and helpless mentality when facing the difficulties of "always being one step away" in life.
In fact,
Lin Tian wrote this song to encourage Gan Yanyu.
Be optimistic, there is still a long way to go in life.
We missed the Star Cup, but we still have the Parrot Cup. Even if the Parrot Cup is gone, we are still young.
It is full of sadness, passion, nostalgia, irony and other emotions.
Only by playing it in person can you know the emotions.
"Let's try it."
Lin Tian came to the piano,
"There are more interesting things!"
"."
The scene was simply arranged.
The recording equipment was turned on.
It has been a long time since I recorded, and Lin Tian felt a little unfamiliar in front of the camera.
"Is it ready?"
Lin Tian asked from a distance.
"Okay." Gan Yanyu nodded.
"."
As the girl pulled the strings.
The beautiful cello sounded, and the two began to play together.
This song was originally supposed to be performed by the violin as the main part, and the whole song would show a very "sexy" feeling.
After Lin Tian modified it to the cello version, while retaining some of the "sexy" taste, the emotions became richer.
After a beautiful song ended.
Lin Tian played the piano.
With the addition of the piano——
The whole song, at this moment, is sublimated!
A change of key begins, and an exciting and passionate melody sounds at this moment!
The piano and cello are pitched up at the same time and intertwined.
At this moment, the whole cafe seems to have turned into a dance hall.
Lin Tian and Gan Yanyu, holding hands, are dancing passionately
In this dance, the two enjoy the melody together and feel each other's heartbeat.
Without speaking, without words, you can know what the other person feels and thinks.
Everything around has turned into petals, and it is beautiful under the light.
But,
When the music ended.
When Lin Tian accidentally raised his head, he found.
The girl who just finished dancing with him.
At this moment, looking up at himself, he actually showed a somewhat embarrassed look:
"This song is very good, but I don't think it's suitable for me."
The music video is attached, you must watch it!
