- ? On the evening of February 5, 2006, Michigan, USA
Detroit Ford Stadium, home of the Detroit Lions of the NFL Football League.
This is one of the most luxurious stadiums in the American Football League, which can accommodate 80,000 spectators and is also a landmark building in Detroit.
And tonight, this stadium is also the venue for the 40th Super Bowl final, 80,000 people are packed to watch the Pittsburgh Steelers and Seattle Seahawks will compete for the highest glory of the entire season here.
At this time, the game had already started, Cao Xuan quietly observed the field, and then returned to the backstage dressing room to wait for the halftime show.
His American agent, Jonah Warner, watched Cao Xuan nervously, fearing that he would not be able to withstand the pressure of 80,000 people present and hundreds of millions of people performing in front of the TV.
Edgar Jr. and Mike who came from Los Angeles were also a little worried. In less than 5 minutes, Edgar Jr. spoke to comfort Cao Xuan for the second time.
Cao Xuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and patted little Edgar: "Sir, I already told you that just a few days ago, I participated in China's Spring Festival Gala, which was aimed at a much larger audience than the Super Bowl, so don't treat me like a rookie .¡±
"Chris, I know about the Spring Festival Gala in China."
Edgar Jr. couldn't help explaining: "But it was a party, and this halftime show has only one person, the concept is completely different."
"It's not that I'm pretending. You go to China to find out how many people watch me sing every year in front of the TV. No matter how many people are in the Super Bowl halftime show, it seems to me the same."
Cao Xuan is really peaceful.
Of course, it is impossible to say that a little nervousness does not turn into emotion, but this is a normal physiological and psychological reaction.
?Based on Cao Xuan¡¯s stage experience, it¡¯s better to be a little tense, but it¡¯s not good to be too loose. In private, it may feel more relaxed, but on the big stage, it¡¯s better to correct it a little bit.
The more Cao Xuan has been on top stages in the past two years, the more stable his mind is, or the more confident he is.
Before taking the stage, Cao Xuan had almost no major psychological fluctuations. Sometimes it was not because of himself that he felt worried, but because he was afraid that others would not perform well.
If it wasn't for the fear of irritating little Edgar and the others, Cao Xuan would have been ready to eat melon seeds like he did in the Spring Festival Gala a few days ago.
Oh, I'm afraid there are no five-spice and chicken soup for melon seeds in the United States, but Badam is also good, he likes it
Ignoring the muttering "Sister Xianglin", Cao Xuan took a few glances at the TV at the door, which showed the live broadcast.
It seemed quite intense, but Cao Xuan didn¡¯t understand rugby. He had a tight rehearsal task here, so he didn¡¯t have time to ask specific questions. Although he had a brief chat with the staff, he didn¡¯t fully understand the rules.
Cao Xuan himself mainly watches football, so he is considered a fake football fan. At least he knows all kinds of football rules, well-known matches, teams, and players.
As for other ball games, he seldom watches the games, and basically follows the trend during the Olympics, and has only a little knowledge.
Even the most popular basketball in China at the moment, Cao Xuan doesn't particularly understand it, that is, after Dayao entered the NBA, he occasionally followed him to watch it.
I just know how to watch scores and goals, and I don't understand some unpopular rules. I can count the names of NBA stars with two hands, and I can't even count them as fake fans.
Not to mention rugby. Before Goldfinger, he had never heard of it a few times, and he had hardly seen rugby in China.
He only knows one football star, Tom Brady, and he knows him because he is the husband of supermodel Gisele Bundchen.
And the owner of this team, like Manchester United, is the Glazer family, so the opponent comes to Old Trafford to watch the game from time to time, and the media introduces it.
It was only then that Cao Xuan got to know the number one superstar in history, whose status in rugby could be called Jordan in basketball.
However, apart from this one, I don¡¯t know any of the rest of Cao Xuan, and I didn¡¯t pay attention to the news in this area when I came to the United States. I have heard a few names vaguely, but I don¡¯t know the specific situation at all.
Compared with performing, Cao Xuan is more worried about the media asking about football after the event.
Except for a few terms and simple rules such as , , , , etc., he really doesn't understand the sport of rugby, and hopes that it will not affect the status of the halftime show among fans.
Besides, he is a singer, why should he let him talk about football
Gossip less, finally arrived at the time of the intermission, metering equipped with stage equipment and hundreds of staff rushed to the stadium quickly, and set up the stage as quickly as possible.
There have been hundreds of these staff beforeSimilarly, this song is also applicable to today's competition, break all the shackles, let out your own light, roar louder than a lion, and become the last king of today.
In the last nearly 20-second long tune, there are almost no lyrics, just non-stop.
Many audience members also found the trick, and sang along with Cao Xuan who was waving on the stage for about 15 more seconds. The sound waves of tens of thousands of people spread around for miles, and the atmosphere of the scene was immediately bursting with excitement.
Especially the audience around the stage are the ones who can feel the atmosphere the most. At the same time, there are many fans of Cao Xuan, especially with the bonus of the halo filter.
After a song carnival, many people danced profusely with sweat and their faces were flushed, but they still looked at Cao Xuan with fiery eyes, and continued to support the idol on stage tirelessly.
Cao Xuan even saw a few commotions on the stage, as if someone had passed out.
However, seeing the medical staff in the backcourt rushing up directly, he calmed down and didn't care about it any more. It was a major live broadcast and he couldn't allow himself to be distracted.
Nodding to the members of the band, he took a light breath, slowed down for a few seconds, and continued with the third song.
The guitarist played lightly, Cao Xuan held the microphone and walked on the stage, the passion faded away, and the singing became gentle and lyrical.
"i'vebeenreabooksofold
I read old books
the legends and the myths
Those ancient legends and boundless mysteries
Like Achilles and his booty
Like the innate power of the Eastern God of War
There is also Spider-Man's control of the overall situation
Invincible with the Iron Fist of a martial artist
"
The Chinese translation of "setthingjustlikethis" is "Just Want This", which was jointly released by two European and American bands, Coldplay and Chainsmokers, in 2017.
Finally, it entered the runner-up of the British pop music list and the fifth place in the Billboard Top 100 Singles List, and won the Grammy and Billboard Music Awards.
However, compared to the "mediocre" list and awards, the most terrifying thing about this song is its popularity.
Because it happened to catch up with the popularity of Marvel, this song has a lot of superhero colors, and the story behind it is also very touching, which made it popular all over the world very quickly, and it was also very popular in China.
Not only was it among the top 10 most popular English songs of the year, but it also seemed to have entered the top 50 on some music platforms.
When Cao Xuan came up with this song, he modified some lyrics. For example, in the above lyrics, in addition to Western mythology and American superheroes, elements of Eastern mythology and martial arts were also added.
This is not for the so-called private goods.
Most of them are Cao Xuan, a Chinese. Even if he writes an English song, it is definitely impossible to have all western elements. It is most reasonable to add a little oriental color.
In addition to this part of the lyrics, the meaning of the whole song has also been corrected to some extent. Although the original version is based on the prototype leukemia boy who likes superheroes, the lyrics are more a bit biased towards love songs. Although it can be understood as an idol, the temperament is weak.
After Cao Xuan changed the lyrics, he was more inspirational overall.
from the original
becomes
"You" can refer to everything.
Players can be understood as fans, singers can be understood as fans, and ordinary people can be understood as the encouragement and support of relatives and friends or the belief in sticking to dreams. In short, inspiration is over.
"doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-do"
Cao Xuan sang softly, and several musicians in the band followed in harmony. Only the drummer straightened up slightly, and then slammed into the drum set. The keyboard player also swayed his body frantically, bringing a very rhythmic electronic sound.
Amidst the explosive drumbeats and rhythm, the spark hole hidden in the hexagonal stage ejected brilliant sparks nearly two meters high upwards.
Cao Xuan took two steps lightly, his handsome and handsome face shone brightly under the reflection of the sparks, his charm was infinite, and he was like a god in the eyes of many female fans in the audience.
However, Cao Xuan didn't care about the fans' thoughts. Accompanied by the strong rhythm of the drums and the melody of the keyboard, his emotions that had been suppressed just now gushed out, he raised his head and sang with all his heart, and his high-pitched voice resounded through the audience.
"I want something just like this
All I want is this
doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-do
oh, i want something just like this
This is all I want
"
Nearly 5,000 spectators around the hexagonal stage, as well as tens of thousands of spectators in the surrounding stands, were all ignited by Cao Xuan's singing. They waved their hands, jumped and cheered, and vented their emotions.
At this moment, this landmark building in Detroit was shaken by the carnival of 80,000 people.
Under the stands, Jonah had already taken off her coat and frantically waved it around the stage. Mike was not much better, his face was flushed, bouncing around like a big meat ball.
Only little Edgar still had a bit of reason, or his energy was focused on another matter.
Regardless of whether Mike heard it or not, little Edgar pulled off his bow tie, with a wild smile on his face, and pulled Mike to shout over and over again.
"Go to tm's Rolling Stones, Cao Cai is the number one in the world. This Super Bowl halftime show is destined to go down in the history books like Michael Jackson's. Hahaha, I made the right bet, no, I made a lot of money"Hey, vent your emotions.
