After a brief pause, the rhythm of the music seemed to be gently quickened by an invisible hand, and the drumbeats, originally hidden in the dark, slowly emerged from a distant place, at first just faint sounds, like a weak heartbeat in the dark night.
Gradually, the drumbeats became clearer, each beat like a heartbeat gradually accelerating in the quiet dark night, each rhythm tightly gripping the listener's heartstrings.
It seemed to foreshadow a grand and sorrowful emotional storm, quietly gathering invisibly, about to surge forth with overwhelming force.
This prelude alone, even before the singing began, was like an invisible ribbon, gently yet powerfully drawing the listeners into a dreamlike world.
This world was filled with poignant scenes outlined by poetic strokes, and a mysterious atmosphere, like pervasive night mist, lingered in every corner, making people intoxicated and unable to extricate themselves.
This was precisely Su Yu’s most skilled "prelude killer"; he could always quickly capture everyone’s attention with this unique musical opening, firmly locking them into the musical world he created for himself.
Just as the listeners were immersed in this enchanting prelude, Su Yu’s magnetic and highly recognizable singing voice, at just the right moment, leisurely began:
"【A group of bloodthirsty ants are attracted by carrion, I watch the lonely scenery expressionlessly.
Losing you, love and hate become distinct; losing you, what else is there to care about?
When doves no longer symbolize peace, I am finally reminded that what is being fed in the square are vultures.
I use beautiful rhymes to describe love that has been plundered empty.】"
Rap! Before everyone could recover from the atmosphere created by the song, they suddenly realized that this was actually a rap!
In an instant, Su Yu's singing was like a giant stone thrown into a calm lake, stirring up thousands of waves on the scene, immediately erupting into a deafening, excited cheer.
You know, it had been too long since everyone had heard Su Yu perform rap.
The last time Su Yu shocked everyone with a rap song was with the domineering and stunning "《the name of the father》" that amazed the entire Chinese music scene.
That song was regarded as a masterpiece by many senior lyricists, composers, and musicians in the country, praised as a classic twenty years ahead of the current music scene, and its influence is still deeply imprinted in people's hearts.
Now, Su Yu is singing a rap song again; how can this not make people's blood boil, full of anticipation whether he can break through himself, surpass his previous work, and create another musical legend, forging new glory?
At this moment, many fans below the stage could no longer suppress their excitement, their eyes sparkling with fervent light;
The lyricists leaned slightly forward, their ears pricked up, afraid of missing any note;
The musicians were focused, carefully savoring the exquisite details of each melody and rhythm.
Everyone was already full of anticipation, eager to feast their ears at this musical feast.
On the stage, Su Yu was immersed in the world of music, and his singing came again:
"【Ah, dark clouds begin to obscure the unclean night,
The echo of a funeral in the park flies all over the sky.
The white roses I gave you, wither in the pure black environment.
The crow on the branch is eerily quiet,
Quietly listening to my black coat,
Wanting to warm your gradually chilling memories,
Lives that have passed, have passed,
Ah, mist permeates all around, I am in an empty graveyard,
I will still love you after I grow old.】"
Su Yu’s enunciation was still as clear as pearls falling on a jade plate, every word accurately reaching the listeners' ears.
However, the tempo of this rap was quite fast, like a rushing stream, which made many people secretly click their tongues, shying away from learning to sing this song, feeling it was quite difficult.
However…
When everyone carefully savored the lyrics, a wave of doubt arose in their hearts, and they secretly wondered: What exactly are these lyrics about?
"【Playing the nocturne I wrote for you, commemorating my dead love.
A sound like the night wind, heartbreak sounds so good.
My hand taps lightly on the keyboard, the longing I give is very careful,
The place where you are buried is called the Underworld.】"
When that stunningly beautiful chorus part surged like a tide, even the most critical and demanding lyricists were shaken by this unique melody and lyrics, and were momentarily speechless, not knowing what to say.
Everyone was full of doubts, and couldn't help but ask in their hearts: Su Yu, how did you come up with such lyrics?
Didn't you just successfully propose?
The wedding ring symbolizing eternal love is still firmly on your finger, so why are you singing about commemorating dead love in the song?
Could it be that you are trying to confirm the saying, "Marriage is the tomb of love"?
But thinking about it carefully, it really doesn't make sense!
"Ah! This is the continuation of "fairytale"!"
Just as everyone was full of confusion, with a female fan's sudden scream, this cry was like a flash of lightning, instantly cutting through the fog in everyone's hearts, and countless people were awakened by her words in an instant, coming out of the chaos!
If the story of "fairytale" were to develop, thinking carefully, it might indeed lead to the scene presented in "Nocturne."
In the story of "fairytale," the male and female protagonists bonded over music, collaborated, and composed a romantic chapter of love.
Then, logically, after the female protagonist's unfortunate passing, the male protagonist, filled with endless longing, composed a nocturne for her; thinking this way, what is unreasonable about it?
"【Playing the nocturne I wrote for you, commemorating my dead love.
And I live anonymously for you, playing the piano under the "moonlight."
My perception of your heartbeat is still so warm and close,
I miss your bright red lipstick mark.】"
Therefore, when the chorus sang again, the audience's sense of immersion became even stronger.
At this moment, no one thought this was Su Yu's baseless moaning anymore.
Everyone unconsciously immersed themselves in the continuation of "fairytale," feeling the deep and helpless love in the story, and a strong sense of despondency and sadness filled their hearts.
At this time, listening to Su Yu's lyrics again, every line felt so apt, without any ambiguity, as if these lyrics were emotional expressions flowing from the deepest part of his heart.
Here, Su Yu changed the lyrics a bit; "Chopin's Nocturne" was changed to "the nocturne I wrote."
Blue Star has no preconceived memories, so it doesn't sound out of place.
"【Those broken-winged dragonflies scattered in this forest,
And my eyes show no sympathy.
Losing you, tears are blurred and unclear,
Losing you, even my smile has a shadow.
The wind on the moss-covered roof,
Mocks my sadness, like a dry well with no water.
I use beautiful fonts to describe that love of regret....】"
Large sections of rap lyrics, like an auditory carnival, allowed many young people on the scene to listen to their heart's content, shouting with satisfaction.
Of course, also deeply impressed by the brilliance of this song were the lyricists and composers from various countries.
They looked at the radiant Su Yu on the stage, and couldn't help but sigh that Su Yu seemed to contain infinite possibilities.
No matter what form or style of music, in his hands, it was as easy as picking things up.
It was as if he was the uncrowned king in the world of music, able to control all notes at will, creating one amazing musical miracle after another.
