Chapter 639 Something Just Like This

This song is called "Something Just Like This". It was a collaboration between the Chainsmokers and the British rock band Coldplay more than ten years later. Once it came out, it immediately became popular all over the world. Many well-known singers competed to cover it. It's not just the song.

The melody is very beautiful, and there is a touching story behind this song.

A child named Scott in the United States was diagnosed with leukemia when he was one and a half years old. Later, when he grew up to four years old, he also knew that he might not die soon. When people asked him what he wished for, Scott replied

He said he wanted to play Batman for a time.

After knowing his wish, a public welfare organization decided to help him realize his wish and raised money for him to shoot a movie "Batman Jr.". During the filming, the entire San Francisco transformed into Gotham City, and "Batman Jr." Scott

Accompanied by another Batman, he defeats the bad guys.

The whole movie is heartwarming and moving. Many celebrities, including the then President of the United States, sent support to Scott Jr., and Coldplay wrote "Something Just Like This" for Miles Jr. based on this touching incident.

However, the original lyrics mentioned Spider-Man and Superman. These two characters are characters from Marvel and DC. Of course, Liu Lang couldn't use them, so he changed them to Optimus Prime and Megatron, which was also a way to make them for his own comics.

advertise.

It can be said that the little hero felt the whole world. As the lyrics say, he did not have the ability to be a superhero. He only wanted to do the simplest thing, whether it was love or something else. In short,

It's as simple as that.

If it were the child in the previous life, he just wanted to live a normal life, but if it were the child Wayne, he just wanted to stand up.

How could we not use such a suitable song?

Liu Lang's simple accompaniment and a cappella singing are of course far different from the band coordination in his previous life, but his pure childish voice has a hint of etherealness, which elevates the artistic conception of this song to another level, and may not shock others' hearts as much as

The original sung in the previous life was worse, but this song appeared more than ten years in advance and could have topped the list of "Billboard" and even competed for the Grammy Award for Best Single.

When Liu Lang finished singing, everyone present fell into a wonderful illusion and couldn't extricate themselves.

"That's wonderful, Jimmy, who wrote this song...don't tell me it's you again!"

shouted the first person to wake up from the melody.

"You guessed it right, I just wrote this song!"

"I………!"

Everyone was speechless. Why are they still doing the Sound of Music here? They have contributed two Grammy-level pieces of music in two attempts. Why is there such a huge gap between people? There is no comparison!

"Jimmy, you are a genius composer. Your talent is comparable to Lennon and Jackson. You...you...!"

No one else knows what words to use to describe Liu Lang.

When Banbo came here, he saw everyone surrounding Liu Lang, just like a bunch of fans seeing their idol. He was a little puzzled, but after hearing the song, he also joined the ranks of the fans.

I can’t accept it!

"Everyone, this is what happened. If you can rehearse this song in two days, you can follow me to the Los Angeles Fire Department for a performance!"

Liu Lang told everyone what happened.

"No problem, we'll rehearse right away!"

Who would be doing the Sound of Music at this time?

There is no cadence in this song, and the difficulty is not too great. The main thing is that the emotion of singing must be full. No one is more suitable than Liu Lang. Others only need to harmonize at the appropriate time. As Liu Lang in the previous life

He has played songs on his phone countless times, and he certainly knows where to add harmonies.

Under Liu Lang's guidance, the song was basically formed in just over an hour. After adding the harmony, the tune of the song became more perfect. Perhaps it was still a little short of it in the eyes of professionals, but it could cope with the kind of start of school.

The performance of etiquette is enough.

After school in the evening, everyone got together to practice again. The next day we practiced for almost a whole day. The third day was Sunday. Deputy Director Banks came here with a Hollywood person.

This man has a very distinctive appearance. He is not too old. He looks about 24 or 25 years old. He is about 1.9 meters tall. He has messy hair and a hippie style. He has a protruding chin. This kind of appearance is common in northern China.

Known as "Douqia", that is, "the earth covers the sky", people with this kind of appearance look like they are not afraid of anything, no one in the sky or on the earth will accept it.

Liu Lang looked at this person carefully and felt that he looked familiar.

"Jimmy, let me introduce to you. This is Quentin Tarantino, a well-known Hollywood director. He has directed many famous movies, such as... Anyway, he is a famous director. This college ceremony is directed by Quentin.

Come and guide!”

"Cao, it's that Quentin Calentino, no wonder he looks familiar!"

This person was very famous in his previous life. He directed many famous movies, such as "Kill Bill", "Pulp Fiction" and "Django Unchained". These movies are all very personal and very different from traditional movies, so

He is also known as a genius director.

In his previous life, Liu Lang liked his movies very much and had read some background information about him.

Quentin Tarantino's parents divorced when he was young. He moved with his mother and stepfather to Los Angeles, where Hollywood is located. His stepfather is a composer and has served as an arranger in some small-production movies. Quentin Tarantino was influenced by this.

Tino was also obsessed with movies, and reached a crazy level.

However, he did not receive systematic film education through film school like most directors. After graduating from middle school at the age of eighteen, he found a job in a video rental store called "Video Archives".

He watched thousands of videotapes and gradually found the routine for making movies.

His most famous work is that he won the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival for directing the crime drama "Pulp Fiction" in 1994. From then on, he skyrocketed and became an alternative among Hollywood directors.

Liu Lang looked at this guy a little funny. It's now 1987, and Quentin is only 24 or 25 years old. He still has seven years to go before he becomes famous. So what is he doing now?

Quentin looked cool and came over immediately after seeing Liu Lang.

"Little guy, I heard Director Banks say that you are a genius. You were admitted to Stanford University at the age of six. This is amazing. You know, I have been working since I graduated from high school. However, I am also a genius. Now I have

I have written more than ten scripts and directed many movies...Oh, by the way, this is my business card!"

Although Quentin's chin is higher than his nose, his mouth is very powerful and he talks endlessly. He is obviously a familiar person.
