Chapter 570 'Counting Stars'

On stage for the second time, in consecutive performances, Jiang Yuan still performed recent hits.

But considering that "Uptown Funk" had already been performed in New York before, which added up to more than one live performance, Jiang Yuan changed another track to a fresher single "I'm yours" for the performance.

.

After experiencing a relatively exciting performance bombardment, Jiang Yuan began to change the style of the second round of performances and entered a more soothing music part, which also gave the audience who had already danced along to several songs a break.

After singing "I'm yours", Jiang Yuan still felt a little unfinished, but he still temporarily gave up the stage and let others perform.

Backstage, another round of singing was over. If it were a competition show, it would have lasted two performances.

However, in order to ensure the smoothness of the performance, Jiang Yuan and others did not have a long time to prepare.

Because he had to perform a new song, Jiang Yuan also specially changed his clothes and adjusted his makeup. After everything was completed, there was not much time left before he could go on stage again.

After performing for about an hour, everyone finished performing two pieces.

In order to wait until the show was broadcast to make this part more ceremonial, Jiang Yuan also came to the stage to say hello to the audience before the performance started.

During the previous performances, it was basically one song after another, and everyone did not interact with the audience like at a concert.

As a ticketed show, everyone hopes to see more performances, but when there is no interactive part, it still feels a little weird.

So when Jiang Yuan changed clothes and went on stage without starting to perform directly, the audience felt that it was right.

"Hello everyone, I'm Jiang Yuan." Jiang Yuan once again introduced himself in Icelandic.

After all, it was a local performance, and although most people could speak English, Jiang Yuan went out of his way to learn a few commonly used Icelandic phrases.

"Some viewers should have noticed that I changed my clothes." Jiang Yuan pointed to the clothes on his body, and there was a burst of whistles at the scene.

For tonight's performance, Jiang Yuan prepared a total of two outfits. One was a more conventional white haute couture, and now he was wearing a black leather coat.

The change in the overall makeup is quite obvious, and the audience also noticed this when Jiang Yuanyi came on stage.

"This also means that we are about to start a new round of performances again. If nothing else happens, this will also be the last round tonight." Jiang Yuan took two steps on the stage.

After all, it's not exactly his home stadium. If it were at his own concert, Jiang Yuan could foresee that there would be a lot of reluctance, similar to shouts of "work overtime".

"Compared to the first two rounds, the special thing about the next performance is that everyone present should be the first audience to hear the songs to be performed." Jiang Yuan paused and spoke again.

This time the talk finally made the fans and even the entire audience start to cheer.

After all, even if it is a concert tour, when everyone buys tickets to watch the show, they will hope that they are the one who receives special treatment.

Jiang Yuan's current introduction made the audience feel this way.

"So, are you all ready to start a new round of performances with me?" Jiang Yuan raised a hand high to mobilize the audience's emotions.

The whole audience suddenly burst into enthusiastic cheers.

"Are you ready?" Jiang Yuan greeted the live music director, and once again raised his arms to heat up the atmosphere that had become calm due to the soothing music.

When Jiang Yuan shouted this for the third time, the response of "yes" reached its loudest moment, and the lights instantly switched to blue.

The big screen behind him lit up and played the name of the song - "Counting Stars"

The song comes from the rock band Republic Era and is a very popular track like "Viva la vida".

In order to match the performance of the new song, in addition to the most basic sound and light, the program team also provided some basic stage design.

For example, the animation on the big screen behind me was based on the night when the aurora appeared, and the process from before the aurora appeared to when it exploded was used.

From the moment the song title appeared on the big screen, to the moment when the audience wanted to start cheering, they immediately stopped shouting because Jiang Yuan's performance had already begun.

"Lately I've been I've been losing sleep,

Dreaming about the things that we could be.....

(Lately, I have been restless and awake at night, unable to help but fantasize about the vision we once had...)"

Jiang Yuanjin's singing accompanied by the sound of the acoustic guitar sounded at the scene.

The clear singing accompanied by the starry sky background immediately created an ethereal atmosphere for the audience.

“But baby I've been I've been praying hard,

said no more counting dollars,we'll be counting stas...

(But dear, I have already prayed deep in my heart, praying that I will no longer be lost in the pursuit of money, and that we can count the stars in the night sky...)"

Jiang Yuan sang softly, almost making the audience think that this beginning set the lyrical tone for the whole song, and it was another soothing and healing song about counting stars.

"Yeah we'll be counting~"

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Jiang Yuan repeated this sentence again, but stuck to the beat and watched the audience sing the slightly low word "Stars".

Like a spell, when Jiang Yuan sang this word, the atmosphere at the scene suddenly changed.

The starry sky on the big screen behind him began to spin faster, and the lights began to flicker and shake.

The sounds of bells, drums, guitars, and synthesizers enrich the musical elements.

Jiang Yuan also began to run on the stage, moving his position while stimulating the atmosphere of the audience.

The audience, like the central control bracelet on their wrists, began to jump to the rhythm of the flashing lights and drums, switching from the mode of quietly listening to the song just now.

It transformed into a large-scale disco scene in one second.

After dancing for a while, Jiang Yuan stopped, put the microphone to his mouth and started singing the first verse.

“I see this life like a swinging vine,swing my heart across the line,

in my face is flashing signs,seek it out and ye' shall find....

(Life is like a leaping vine, driving straight into my heart, feeling the dazzling light of the sun, but after looking for it, you will find...)"

The singing speed suddenly accelerated, and it was like a drumbeat, singing firmly into the hearts of the audience.

The steady output of singing made the audience jump even more excitedly.

The appearance of another band song also made Paul backstage unable to help but pause his makeup touch-up and began to listen to Jiang Yuan's singing seriously.

During the rehearsal, Paul listened to this song and liked it very much.

Paul even thought that if his band hadn't been established for so many years and had so many fans, he would have wanted to recruit Jiang Yuan into the band and form a dual-vocalist configuration.

It's a pity that it didn't happen, but it didn't stop Paul from swaying along with Jiang Yuan's singing at this time.

"I~I~I~I~ feel something so right, doing the wrong thing...

(I am used to being deviant, and I feel at peace...)"

Just when the audience had just adapted to Jiang Yuan's fast-paced singing and were jumping happily, Jiang Yuan showed off his beautiful voice transfer to the audience.

While showing the live audience, it also pushed the atmosphere to a new climax.

“I~I~I~I feel something so wrong, doing the right thing....

(Also in the step-by-step process, the pain is lackluster...)"

When the song was sung for the second time, the audience was still amazed.

"I couldn't lie couldn't lie could't lie...."

Along with the repeated lyrics, Jiang Yuan raised a hand, and it was about to enter the chorus.

The live accompaniment gradually weakened until it disappeared, leaving a period of empty beat without accompaniment.

At this time, Jiang Yuan still sang a line of lyrics in a low voice.

“Everything that kills me makes me feel alive!”

Jiang Yuan raised his hands and sang this line, his whole body full of energy and aura, which directly filled the stage.

Singing immersively, Jiang Yuan himself truly felt that the lyrics were very handsome when translated.

"Whoever kills me will bring me back to life"

There are many similar descriptions, but it cannot be denied that this sentence is indeed very handsome when performing.

A rewinding special effect also appeared on the background of the big screen behind me, giving the impression of a new beginning when a waterfall falls.

After singing this line, Jiang Yuan suddenly swung his hand down, turned around, and started singing the chorus.

"Lately I've been I've been losing sleep..."

The chorus was sung again. The melody of the song was already familiar to the audience, but different accompaniments gave the audience a completely different feeling.

Previously, with the accompaniment of acoustic guitar, everyone thought they were going to start counting stars quietly.

But right now, I am dancing to the music to the point where I have no time to count stars.

“…Dreaming about things that we could be…”

When the chorus was repeated for the second time, Jiang Yuan directly chose to sing in a rising key, pushing the audience's emotions and feelings to a new peak in excitement.

During the interlude of the song, the audience did not rest at all and were still jumping up and down. Jiang Yuan moved slightly, took care of the audience on the other side of the stage, and then started singing a new verse of the main song.

"I feel the love and I feel it burn,down this river every turn...

(You can throw everything outside your body and roll around in every twist and turn of the river...)"

Under Jiang Yuan's singing, even though it was already an hour after the performance started, the audience was still jumping as if they were as energetic as if the performance had just begun.

"Old but I'm not that old, Young but I'm not that bold,

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! and I don't think the world is sold....

(Although I am old, I am not senile. Although I am young, I am not necessarily reckless and impolite. I firmly believe that the world is as beautiful as ever...)"

The lyrics of the song are arranged very closely.

Seeing Jiang Yuan performing all kinds of big moves on stage and still singing so steadily, Paul couldn't help but sigh as he listened to the lyrics and said, "It's great to be young."

In fact, the song is really difficult.

After singing a series of fast lyrics, he immediately had to smoothly follow up the difficult transposition, which was also a big challenge for Jiang Yuan.

"I~I~I~I feel sonthing so wrong....."

Fortunately, Jiang Yuan finally supported Zhuanyin.

This transition also touched the audience's high point very well, as they obviously didn't hear enough of the previous part.

After singing the transitions twice in a row, we entered the chorus of the song again.

Because I was too immersed in the performance, my jumping range was a little larger, coupled with the difficult singing itself.

No matter how well Jiang Yuan controlled his breath, he was still a little unstable at this time.

However, this kind of instability does not affect the experience of the scene too much. Instead, it gives a sense of déjà vu that the singer has reached the critical point along with the audience.

In addition to the harmony parts in the original track, overall the impact is not big.

After another super-hot chorus rocked the audience, Jiang Yuan returned to the microphone stand behind him and plugged in the microphone.

The singing entered the bridge section of the song.

Jiang Yuan started singing while stepping on the drums, raising his hands in the air and leading the audience to beat the rhythm.

“Take that money, watch it burn,

sink in the river,the lessons I've learned....

(You can throw away all the things outside your body, go boating and sing, how is life...)"

These lyrics form a bridge section that is repeated several times, creating a ladder-climbing effect at the scene.

It's like continuing to move forward, repeating the same action, and then reaching the top.

Just when the audience was running thinking that the song was going to progress like this, it suddenly stopped again.

With the accompaniment extremely quiet, Jiang Yuan once again sang the first line of the chorus almost a cappella style.

"Everything that kills me,makes me feel alive."

The same lyrics can be translated into many different ways in Chinese.

The more straightforward one is the former one, but to be more poetic, it can also be "Thousands of sails are passing by the side of the sunken boat, and thousands of spring trees are in front of the diseased trees!"

After this line is sung, the chorus of the song begins again.

After the scene was stagnant for a moment, they all fell into a carnival again.

This method of dropping songs after a temporary lull has been tried and true at performances.

Not only will it not interrupt the audience's emotions, but it will make the atmosphere even more heated after the continuation.

The chorus was sung again, and Jiang Yuan basically sang one sentence after another to ensure that the overall singing was coherent.

It is also more able to drive the audience to be more excited with the stage actions.

By the time of the last chorus, the whole audience was basically rocking.

Even Paul and others in the background didn't notice this, they were jumping for joy.

“Take that money, watch it burn,

sink in the river, the lessons I've learned...."

After the last chorus was sung, Jiang Yuan sang this part again.

The fiery atmosphere of the song continued until the end.

After the singing was over, Jiang Yuan couldn't help but feel a little exhausted, and he bent over to relax for a while.

But after the performance, the audience applauded and cheered.

It has completely transformed into the atmosphere that can only be found at a concert, the same atmosphere that I had when I sang "Viva la vida" before.

This moment quietly escalated a lot again.

After all, he performed several songs well and truly conquered the audience besides the fans.

Listening to the lively sounds at the scene, Jiang Yuan calmed down for a while before getting up again and preparing to say goodbye to the audience.
