The Clown\'s final line in a cappella unleashed an outpouring of emotion from many in the audience!
Some of them started crying!
Some were desperately holding back their tears!
They all understood the song as its lyrics had triggered tears in many of them. The Clown was not singing "I really love you" or "I\'m telling you that I love you very much" or even "do you know that I love you." What he sang was: "Please permit me…to say…\'I really love you!\'"
Please permit me!
It was completely different from telling you!
It was completely different from asking to say it!
"Please permit me" had an apologetic tone that carried a sense of guilt!
Especially during that last line The Clown sang in a cappella. He had raised his microphone twice and lowered it twice because he could not manage to sing it. It wasn\'t until the third time that The Clown raised his microphone that he was finally able to sing it! That kind of emotional struggle, that sense of guilt and reservedness were all thoroughly portrayed in this moment. This was no longer a matter of singing skill anymore, it was a sublimation of emotions!
There was no pretentiousness to it!
There was no affectation!
It was all natural!
The emotions he displayed throughout the song were so real that everyone found it hard to believe! No one knew that The Clown\'s parents were actually seated in the audience!
The music started and ended with a cappella.
The Clown lowered his microphone and bowed deeply.
The performance ended.
His mother stood up crying!
Zhang Xia also stood up in tears!
Applause erupted!
Cheers rang out!
"That was great!"
"That was so unbelievable!"
"It was a Cantonese song! It was actually a Cantonese song!"
"The Clown wanted to compete against Li Yu with what he\'s best at!"
"I don\'t know what to say! Oh my god! Isn\'t this song too good? And it\'s even an original? Who the fuck wrote this song? Who wrote it?!"
"Earlier, I thought that Li Yu would win. But I\'m thinking differently now!"
"Me too! Who said that The Clown would lose?"
"There are two songs I\'ve listened to this year that have made me cry. The first one was \'A Letter to Home\' that Zhang Ye sang on the Spring Festival Gala stage; the other is this one. I\'m not attracted by the singing, but by the lyrics and emotions poured into the song. It was so great and so amazing!"
"Is this who The Clown is? Everyone has underestimated him!"
"I have no words! I can no longer express what I\'m feeling!"
All of a sudden, someone shouted, "The Clown!"
Then shout after shout sounded!
"The Clown!"
"The Clown!"
"The Clown!"
"The Clown!"
The shouting was syncing up!
The voices were getting louder!
Zhang Ye walked off the stage.
Han Qi rushed over to him.
Spinach, Sunset Glow, and Yesterday\'s Daylily, and the others went up to him together!
Her cheeks stained with tears, Han Qi exclaimed, "You\'re incredible! That was fantastic!"
Looking shocked, Petal Shower said, "How\'d you do that?"
Sunset Glow stared at him and said, "There are only two possibilities as to why he can sing a Cantonese song so well. The first possibility is that the singer already knows Cantonese, so he naturally wouldn\'t have a problem with the language. The second possibility is that if he is a singer who doesn\'t know Cantonese, he sings this song repeatedly and continually. He would have to listen to the original version hundreds to a thousand times and then practice it dozens to hundreds of times to be able to have such a good pronunciation! Teacher Clown, you\'re way too astonishing! How\'d you manage to do it?"
Though she\'d been in the competition for a long time now, this was the first time that everyone heard Sunset Glow talk so much. She was usually a reserved person who didn\'t talk much.
Yesterday\'s Daylily said anxiously, "Yeah, h-how did you manage to do it?"
The Clown did not answer. He just laughed it off.
Dozens of times?
Hundreds of times?
Surely it was even more than that!
This song was extremely famous in Zhang Ye\'s previous world. All those songs he had sung would not have the reach and influence that this song possessed even if they were all grouped together. How could Zhang Ye have only listened to it several hundred times? He would sing this song every time he went out for karaoke and would hear it at all kinds of places from time to time. If it were any other Cantonese song, Zhang Ye would probably not know how to sing them because he really did not know Cantonese. He could only understand some simple sentences and his pronunciation was not good, in addition. But if it was " I Really Love You 1 ," he could handle it without any problems! It would be impossible to get the song wrong!
In truth, Zhang Ye had not intended to use this song. It wasn\'t that he didn\'t like this song, but because this song would seriously make him look like a bully! He had wanted to use a song that was mainstream, yet how was this considered a mainstream song? It had already surpassed the boundaries of mainstream. It was a well-known classic in his previous world! But if Li Yu wanted to play dirty? If he wanted to bully others by using his popularity? Then Zhang Ye had no choice but to bring this song out! Moreover, Mother\'s Day was approaching. He had really wanted to sing this song so that he could convey some words to his parents. There were some things that Zhang Ye could never say to them under normal circumstances. Since he could not say them, then he would use this stage and song to tell his parents!
The crowd was still applauding!
"The Clown!"
"The Clown!"
"The Clown!"
In the waiting area.
Li Yu\'s face turned green with rage. He never expected that The Clown would choose to sing a Cantonese song! Not only him, no one else expected it either! Logically, as Li Yu was a Cantonese singer from Hong Kong, it was normal for him to sing a Cantonese song. Since that was his mother tongue, he could sing such songs almost effortlessly and had been doing so for a decade now! Even if they thought with their feet, no one should have used a Cantonese song versus Li Yu in the crucial elimination round!
But that was exactly what The Clown did!
And his Cantonese was not even any worse than Li Yu\'s!
It was too professional!
His pronunciation was too standard!
Even if it were Li Yu who went out to sing, it wouldn\'t get any better than this!
Why?
What the fuck was this?
How did he know how to sing a Cantonese song?
Li Yu had no way to understand it! No one could understand it!
Could this person really be a singer from Hong Kong? But that was impossible! That was absolutely impossible!
Everyone had thought that The Clown would not win because they had taken today\'s atmosphere and circumstances into account. Everything was advantageous for Li Yu and nothing indicated that The Clown, who sang in Mandarin, could secure a victory. This was because Cantonese and Mandarin songs were two different musical genres that could not be compared. As long as they could not be compared, even if The Clown\'s singing were better and he performed exceedingly well, things would be meaningless. A lot of the audience members would support Li Yu based on their feelings because of his popularity!
But what shocked everyone was that The Clown had fucking sung a Cantonese song!
And even the title of the song was smacking Li Yu\'s face!
The Beijing Television program team staff saw that The Clown had left the stage and were looking at him in astonishment, as if they were seeing some kind of kind!
It\'s similar circumstances to your last song!
He sang about how life was dark and a grind?
While you sang about how life\'s about more than just the grind?
He sang a Cantonese song!
You also sang a Cantonese song!
He sang "I Really Hate You"!
And then you fucking sang "I Really Love You"!
Fuck your big brother!
Are you a professional face-smacking athlete?
Are you planning to bash his face so hard that it becomes swollen?
This is slapping him to his fucking death!
