This Star Wants To Retire

"The Lonely Brave", a song written by Tang Tian, ​​composed and arranged by Qian Lei, and sung by Eason Chan.

The lyricist Tang Tian is an anti-cancer fighter. After learning that he has nasopharyngeal cancer, he wrote down many wishes for the song, one of which is: I want to live longer than my parents.

There is infinite power in the lyrics of this song.

And her biggest dream was to collaborate with Eason Chan on a song.

As for Qian Lei's composition level, there is no need to say much, "Big Fish" was written by him.

Not to mention Eason Chan, how can the god of song be in vain?

This is an excellent work whether it is lyrics, music, or singing. Therefore, many listeners will like it more and more, and they will never get tired of listening.

Strangely, many audience members looked at the stage and the backs of the anti-drug policemen. When Luo Mo sang the first line, they felt their bodies respond, and there was an inexplicable emotion in their hearts.

"[All——, are brave.

The wound on your brow, your difference,

your mistake. 】”

The picture on the big screen began to switch, it was a face that everyone couldn't see clearly, and someone was treating his wound.

Enduring the severe pain, the anti-narcotics policeman raised a finger and yelled at his colleagues, "Just a little bit... just, just a little bit!"

He was obviously injured on duty, but he seemed to feel that he had made a huge mistake and fell into endless self-blame.

In his opinion, because of his mistake, there may be family members who will be endangered, and colleagues who will face danger.

The singing continues, Luo Mo hides in the light and shadow, as if he is just a narrator on the stage, while the pictures on the big screen, those people who really exist but you can't see their faces clearly are the protagonists of the stage.

Luo Mo's singing voice is slightly suppressed, and the emotions in it are particularly difficult to interpret.

After listening to many cover songs, many people always feel that there is something wrong with the original song.

It was only later that I found out that many cover songs sounded really cool, but many people only sang the word [courage] in this song, without that - [solitary].

Luo Mo held the microphone in both hands, lowered his head slightly:

"[All——, there is no need to hide.

your battered doll, your mask,

your ego. 】”

The screen changed again, but still only the back could be seen.

This time, instead of wearing a police uniform, he was wearing civilian clothes, pretending to be an ordinary person.

To fight against drugs, you have to hide your identity, otherwise, both yourself and your family will suffer retaliation.

This is the mask they put on, the lost self.

In the scene like a documentary, someone came to the residence of an anti-narcotics policeman who died in the line of duty, and found an unopened but outdated doll on the table.

Perhaps, he wanted to give it to his daughter.

It's a pity that it can only be delivered by others.

He is a person who walks in the dark. Even if he is dead, he must temporarily hide his identity, so as not to be caught by drug dealers and take revenge.

The screen fell into darkness, and a subtitle appeared.

A few numbers, but it makes people's heart beat half a beat slower.

"【Sorry, family members of XXX, due to the current special circumstances, the memorial service for martyrs XXX can only be held here.】"

Half of Luo Mo's body was submerged in the shadows, his pitch was raised a little bit, but it was limited, and the singing continued:

“[They say, tame every monster with light.

They say to sew up your wounds,

Nobody loves clowns. 】”

The picture changed with the singing, and the anti-drug police who still only appeared from the back pushed the drug dealer to the ground.

The light of the flashlight hit him.

The drug dealer who was pressed was struggling like a wild beast.

And when the anti-narcotics police sew up the wound and go home for vacation, they may still face one after another incomprehension.

Don't know what he's doing, what he's busy with.

In this impetuous society, this man lives like a clown.

Luo Mo continued to hold the microphone, and his voice was raised again.

"[Why be alone, not honorable,

People are only imperfect and worthy of praise.

Who said that a person covered in mud is not a hero? 】”

On the big screen, amidst voices of inquiry and incomprehension, the screen switched back to the screen of the man holding down the drug dealer again.

You can't see the upper half of his face, you can only see his chin that was smashed by the ground, and you can only see the mud and blood on his neck and collarbone.

What a mess.

How unbearable.

He grinned foolishly, really like a clown. The exposed teeth and gums are also covered with blood!

On the big screen, only three words and only half a sentence appeared.

"[Hero——]".

Yeah, why isn't this a hero! ?

Three words, once again give the song a certainty.

That being the case, the climax of the chorus, that high spirit, should appear.

Luo Mo raised his head and began to sing the chorus. Every time he sang a line, the screen image changed accordingly. The texture was like a documentary, perfectly corresponding to the lyrics.

"【Love you walking in a dark alley alone.】"

On the screen, there are anti-drug policemen moving quickly in the alleys in the dark.

"【I love the way you don't kneel.】"

An anti-narcotics policeman who couldn't see his face clearly faced the camera and spoke, and the subtitles appeared: "After the second fight, I received threats."

"But I'm going to catch him!"

"[I love you, you have persisted in despair, and you refused to cry!]"

One anti-narcotics policeman died, and another anti-narcotics policeman rushed forward screaming. There were no tears, only heart-piercing roars and anger, and he pushed people to the ground.

"[Love your tattered clothes, but dare to block the gun of fate!]"

Another anti-narcotics policeman faced the camera and pointed to the wound on his lower abdomen. Subtitles appeared, and he said: "The situation is urgent, we can only act casually."

"It's okay....... His gun is not accurate to me."

"[Love you are so similar to me, the gaps are the same!]"

One picture after another emerged, one scar after another.

"[Go? Match? This ragged cloak.]"

Sometimes, if it is a sudden action, maybe he doesn't even have a bulletproof vest, only a civilian suit or a police uniform, but this is not his cape.

"[Fight? Fight! With the humblest dream.]"

On the screen, subtitles appeared.

"World peace" is a dream that everyone is tired of seeing, and even finds it ridiculous.

"【To the sobs and roars in the night!】"

The images appeared uninterrupted and switched quickly. They were faces that could not be seen clearly one after another. Their facial features were distorted and their mouths were wide open. It could be seen that they were shouting something.

The last sentence of the chorus appeared, as if hitting the hearts of every listener. This question also echoed the [hero——] in the previous subtitles.

“[Who said that those who stand in the light are heroes?]”

During the live broadcast, barrage began to overwhelm the sky.

Many audience members watching the stage had red eyes, but their blood boiled with enthusiasm.

Looking around, the overwhelming barrage contained the same words.

"salute!"

"pay tribute!"

"hero!"

After the interlude, Luo Mo continued to sing, the song entered section B, and the lyrics did not repeat with section A.

"[They said, to quit your madness,

It's like rubbing off the dirt. 】”

In the picture, a drug dealer has been arrested. When faced with questioning, he said: "I didn't understand what they thought at first."

"I think it's crazy to want to stop a car and arrest me in that situation."

"Do you really think you are a superhero in a movie?"

“【They said, go up the steps, and the price is to bow your head.】”

What if there is an umbrella of evil forces appearing?

So, should we choose to compromise, or..... to pierce the umbrella together! ?

There are too many words [they said] in the lyrics.

how about you?

What is your choice?

Luo Mo's singing gave the answer.

"【Then let me not ride the wind.

You are just as proud, that kind of bravery.

Who said that an ordinary chess player is not a hero! ? 】”

Perhaps, if you choose to compromise, you can rise step by step and skyrocket.

Then let me not ride the wind!

Yes, there are no so-called superheroes in this world.

We are all flesh and blood, we bleed, we ache.

The only thing we have is this...a lonesome courage!

The accompaniment sound became more passionate, and Luo Mo stopped singing at this moment.

Yes, the first chorus has already made people feel excited, but in fact, whether it is the accompaniment or the vocals, they are still restrained.

At this moment, it is the presumptuous singing.

This kind of presumptuousness seems to be saying that such ordinary people's heroes can be praised as much as they want.

The climax of the repeated chorus makes people get goosebumps.

And in the screen, the anti-drug police successfully captured drug dealers again and again, which made people excited.

After the chorus was over again, many listeners were completely ignited.

However.

However.

As I said before, from the structural point of view, many songs will repeat the chorus climax several times at the end.

And some singers will add some changes to this repetition.

This "Lonely Brave Man" added two lines to the refrain that was repeated twice.

"【Your mottled, different.】"

"【Your silence is deafening.】"

After these two lines were sung in falsetto, what appeared on the screen was a small box.

This road will eventually be accompanied by sacrifices.

Mottled light and shadow shone on the urn.

This kind of silent picture, the dead can't speak, and the living bow their heads in silence, but it makes people's hearts tremble.

The appearance of this kind of image seems to make the excitement and blood of the audience quenched by cold water.

But then, a few paragraphs of text appeared on the screen.

"[Did you know? Every policeman has his own police number.]"

“[When a policeman dies on duty, his police number will be sealed.]”

"[If the sealed alarm signal is activated again, it means...]"

"[His bloodline descendants have inherited this police number and become a new glorious people's policeman!]

“[He will carry this siren and continue to complete…..his unfinished mission!]”

On the screen, an anti-narcotics policeman surnamed Zhang died to save his colleagues.

His three sons all became the people's police.

The third son of police officer Zhang faced the camera, unable to see his face clearly, and said something, and the subtitles appeared: "I didn't deliberately choose this path, but I feel that I am already... just want to be a policeman! "

The screen switched back to the scene of the child being interviewed by the reporter when the father died.

He was dressed plainly and kept wiping away his tears. He was only ten years old: "As soon as I saw the picture of my dad, I wanted to cry."

The three sons are all policemen, and the third son, like his father, has devoted himself to anti-drug work.

Judging from the images of him when he was ten years old, his family must not be rich, and his life should be very simple.

The singing voice spread at this moment, and the lyrics hit people's hearts.

"[Loving you comes from the wilderness, and I will never borrow anyone's light in my life!

You will build your city-state on the ruins! 】”

Yes, this is a child who lost his father when he was young.

But he is resolute and determined to create a better and cleaner world!

Luo Mo continued to sing, finishing the song.

"[Go? Go! With the humblest dream!"

fight? fight! With the loneliest dream! 】”

On the screen, police officer Xiao Zhang inherited his father's will and his wish.

In the nine years he has been engaged in anti-drug work, he has fought against drug dealers several times, participated in the investigation of 158 cases, and seized 27.7 tons of drugs and 1186.2 tons of drug-making materials with his comrades.

In the end, what appeared on the screen was a black and white photo.

Seeing this, many viewers suddenly shuddered and realized something.

This police officer Xiao Zhang, it turns out...has also been sacrificed!

He was nine years younger than his father when he died!

Luo Mo's singing is already finishing.

“【To the sobs and roars in the dark night.】”

This is the son who lost his father.

“[Who said that those who stand in the light are considered heroes!!!]”

On the screen, the interview screen in front of Police Officer Xiao Zhang continued to appear.

Everyone couldn't see his face clearly, and a special facial treatment was performed, so it was pitch black.

The subtitles surfaced, and he said in the interview:

"My evaluation of myself is that I am a qualified policeman."

After the interview was over, the light was turned on, and the light shone on his face. A slightly cautious smile appeared on his dark face, and the small characters beside it read:

"The moment when the lights were turned on during the interview by Police Officer Zhang before his death."

In China, too many alarms have been sealed, and too many alarms have been restarted.

And some sirens even restarted three or four times!

And some alarm signals, after restarting, are... permanently sealed.

The family is full of loyalty and has no descendants.

When the singing ended, the glimmer of light on Luo Mo's body dissipated, and his whole body was submerged in darkness.

Only the screen on the stage was still on and glowing.

Previously, there was no sound on the screen, only subtitles.

Only the first sentence has a voice emerging.

But this time, there is no picture, only sound.

It was a female voice.

From... a female police officer.

"Dad, do you miss me?"

"Do you know, now I have fulfilled your wish and become a glorious people's policeman."

"Wear the same clothes as you, do the same things as you."

"Work where you work, eat where you eat in the cafeteria."

"Follows like a shadow."

"I am you, but I am not you."

"But, I know, I am the continuation of your life."

"I am your daughter, and I am completing your unfinished mission."

"Dad, are you proud?"

The light on the screen also went out.

This is the darkest stage among all the Spring Festival Gala programs in the history of Blue Star.

It seems out of season with the Spring Festival Gala.

It was too dark for this stage to see much light.

A group of people who can't see the light.

But many viewers glanced out the window.

Today is New Year's Eve, and the tradition in many places is to keep a light at home and not turn it off.

——Lights of all households!

The stage is dark and the world is bright.

Enough is enough.

Continue to be that shady hero!
