Chapter 417 How to open
Karen, was completely shocked.
Indeed, she shot that video; indeed, she watched that performance countless times on TV; indeed, she chose to upload it to the forum precisely because she couldn’t put it down; indeed, She was indeed there to witness the miracle of that afternoon.
However, at this moment, Karen was still involved in a storm——
It was different, but it was still different after all.
After all, you can’t feel the vitality conveyed by the entire performance through watching the video. Those strings, those performances, and those notes are full of enthusiasm and power. Your skin is hot, your heart is beating fast, and your breathing is rapid. All five senses are mobilized to feel, experience, and immerse. Only then can we truly touch the soul of music.
Hot and gorgeous.
Now, Karen knows what she missed by shooting the video.
I watched the solos and performances of each band member intently, and finally followed Anson and watched him come behind the snare drum.
H.
Karen couldn't help but hold her breath.
Next second.
Dong. Boom. Boom.
Once, and again, the steady and vigorous drum beat poured down like a torrential rain, and Anson's high-pitched and translucent singing tore through the many melodies and detonated the audience.
“Oh oh oh oh. oh oh oh oh!”
Oops.
With a sudden movement, Karen stood up. An instinct, a drive and restlessness originating from the depths of the soul, the blood all over her body was burning.
After a while, Karen noticed that Blair had also stood up for the first time. Even though it was the second time that Blair had watched the performance up close, she still couldn't control her passion and madness. , the two people exchanged glances, smiles blooming wantonly at the corners of their mouths.
As for the others?
They don’t care.
Life is really too short. If you always care about the eyes of others, then they will never be able to break free and embrace themselves.
So, even if it’s “The Tonight Show,” so what?
They are ready to enjoy this moment to the fullest, even if they are banned from the show forever. Happiness blooms in their minds like a fireworks display on the Fourth of July.
Raise your hands high, jump as much as you want, use your body to feel the drum beat, the rhythm, the notes -
This is the real immersion.
It turns out that music really has a soul.
Dong. Boom. Boom.
That is the sound of soul burning and life blooming.
Luckily, Blair and Karen are not alone.
The whole place exploded.
No one is exempt, literally, no one.
The passion burning in the blood makes the body uncontrollably agitated. It must cheer and jump. This is the only way to vent the restlessness.
So, when they saw two figures standing up to demonstrate the correct way to immerse themselves in music, others could not control themselves and stood up reflexively.
One or two, ten or twenty...
Before they had time to react, they swept the whole place like a prairie fire.
Jay Leno could also clearly feel his blood boiling and burning. Looking around, all the spectators and staff in the studio had all stood up. At the same time, more staff were pouring in to take photos. The space in the shed was packed to the brim.
Crack. Snap. Snap.
Consciously and unconsciously, the whole audience was applauding, jumping, and intoxicated. The drumsticks seemed to hit the heart hard, and the surging energy was unreserved. Release it all, rush to the top in one go, your mind goes blank, only passion is burning.
At this moment, the studio transformed into a concert venue.
Then - it stopped suddenly.
The band ended the performance with a crisp rest. At the peak moment and in a full state, it stopped abruptly, allowing the moment to freeze into eternity.
The heart exploded.
The whole studio was filled with applause, whistles and cheers.
Jay Leno also stood up, shaking his head repeatedly, a smile blooming at the corner of his mouth, looking at the four people in front of him in disbelief.
Ah, ah ah!
Karen was roaring, forgetful. She couldn’t believe that she had experienced all that at the scene, but it was only now that she seemed to have truly appreciated the scene. Only then did she realize that she had “missed it” at that time. What.
Fortunately, everything has been made up for today, and I can enjoy this performance again authentically and 100%.
This is the correct way to open "Wake Me Up".
Cheering, jumping, applauding, every cell in Karen’s body was screaming.
Ah...
The long-lasting cheers completely surrounded the small stage, getting more and more intense, rising steadily, lingering at 360 degrees, unable to stop at all, and a wave of excitement suddenly occurred. An illusion that the whole world is shaking.
As soon as he turned his head, Anson could see Miles's bright and cheerful face, quietly gazing at the crowd in front of him, and could see the surging enthusiasm in his eyes; he could also see Lily stunned. He stood there, seemingly losing the ability to react, his eyes filled with disbelief and astonishment.
And Connor.
Poor Connor lowered his head in embarrassment to hide his panic.
Anson patted Connor on the shoulder with some worry. Connor rubbed his eyes with the back of his hands in a panic, mumbling an excuse in a vague voice, "I didn't cry. I didn't cry."
However, the moisture on the back of the hand betrayed the truth.
Even Anson was filled with emotion, because he knew what it felt like to have a dream but had to give up, and he also knew the bitterness and melancholy of standing in the mud and looking up at the stars.
Perhaps, for him, this is a beautiful accident; but for them, it is a bright future after giving up completely and despairing.
Roar!
Ho ho ho!
The applause in the studio was endless, sweeping over like a mountain and a tsunami.
There is no doubt that this was a sensational moment. The entire "Tonight Show" crew came out in full force, never expecting that the scene on the streets of Manhattan was also staged in the studio.
Then Anson saw Hayden.
In the crowd, Hayden and Ewan McGregor stood side by side. Because of their height advantage, they stood out from the crowd and easily broke into Anson's field of vision.
Although Hayden did not accept the interview, it seems that he also came to visit the show team today, and now he and Ivan came out to join in the fun.
However, Hayden was also stunned.
None of them expected that they would meet again on such an occasion. Because it was so unexpected and sudden, neither of them had time to react.
Amidst the noise and heat, the noise hit the eardrums hard, but the two friends felt a silence when their eyes met, and they briefly pressed the pause button.
Jay Leno's voice came to my ears, "Welcome, welcome! Welcome to the 'Tonight Show', ladies and gentlemen, let us welcome Anson Wood and Lily Watkin with a round of applause. Si, Miles Anderson, Connor Jenks."
This is the signal for the program to continue.
So.
Anson smiled at Hayden, his eyes clearly saying: Long time no see.
Then, without waiting for a response, Anson put down his instrument and walked towards the main stage.
Hayden was stunned.
He tried to open his mouth to say hello, but was drowned out by the roar of cheers in an instant. He had no choice but to swallow his words and stood there at a loss.
In the crowd, his eyes and expression could not be clearly seen.
