1002 unintentionally
，for you.
After the song was sung, Renly sat quietly on the high stool. His turbulent emotions were almost completely out of control, and he needed some time to calm down..
“"One-More-Light", this is undoubtedly the most difficult song to create..
It abandons all cumbersome arrangements and all the ups and downs of tones, and completely returns to nature, interpreting the inner sadness and pain in a calm and gentle way; moreover, this is not a folk arrangement, but a rock and roll arrangement. Catharsis and expression, fragmented inspirations disappear and appear. It took three months to complete..
After the entire song was written, Renly truly accepted the fact that Heather Cross had left, carried the weight on his back, and moved on with his life..
Before today's performance, Renly had hesitated and even tried to give up..
He didn't want to perform this song because it was too personal and too secret. The heavy emotions were pressing heavily on his chest and he could hardly breathe. The performance just now also proved this. He was caught off guard and the emotions burst out. He lost control, as if standing naked on the stage, showing himself without any reservation or defense..
This reminded Renly of the stage play..
For actors - more accurately, for all artistic creators, they must dissect themselves in front of the audience, display their souls and thoughts through artistic means, and even reveal their privacy and secrets. presented without reservation.
Art comes from life and is higher than life, that's it. Artists cannot create out of imagination. All artistic creations come from their own experience and realization, based on their own understanding and. Therefore, only actors who truly dare to show themselves will not be able to create anything out of thin air. Only without reservation can the most moving aspect of the performance be presented..
People are always curious about why European actors are bold and bold, and it can be said that it is commonplace to show off their bodies.？
Because for truly outstanding actors, the biggest problem is to show their thoughts, brains and souls, to completely present the secrets under the body, and even to face their own nightmares, which is extremely difficult and extremely scary; In comparison, the presentation of the body is just a visual impact, which is really too childish..
At that moment, Renly was timid. Because the emotions hidden in the songs were too real and too rich. To show his fragility and sadness without any reservation required courage and even more courage..
However, Renly still chose to go on stage after all..
Not just for the Heather Cross Foundation, not just to shoulder his obligations and responsibilities as a public figure; at the same time, deep down in his heart, Renly also made a choice between "saying you won't give up" and "Another Light", choose one of the two songs, and in the end, Renly chose the latter..
Because, "Say You Won't Give Up" is a secret between him and Heather, he promised. Therefore, the song "Say You Won't Give Up" will be officially released in the future, and all proceeds will be donated to Heather- Cross Foundation; however, Renly will not perform in any public places, and the "One Man Concert" is the only one.
This is their agreement.
After the song, Renly lowered his eyelids, exhaled a long breath, and gradually calmed down. When he raised his eyes again, the lights in the audience were still shining, and thousands of lights gathered on the same stage. Above, turbulent and hot, beyond Rockefeller Plaza, the entire island of Manhattan burst out with a dazzling light, enough to make the sun eclipse.
According to official ratings statistics, this episode of the "Today Show" attracted 12 million viewers to watch the live broadcast. Among them, the number of viewers for the "Another Light" performance stage instantly exceeded 1,600 million, creating the highest ratings in the past 30 years, breaking countless records, and writing an important chapter in the history of American live television..
Even Warner Brothers themselves were dumbfounded after witnessing such achievements. They never expected that in order to cooperate with the promotion of "Edge of Tomorrow", they would nod and agree to Renly's request for charity activities. They originally thought it was just a casual gesture of goodwill. This move, to gain fame and publish a press release, ended up creating the biggest event in 2012.——
When he nodded in agreement, the wealthy Warner Bros. did not conduct in-depth research or inquiry at all, and knew nothing about the connection between this event and the "Hypegate". Barry Meyer only heard that it was related to the foundation's charity activities. With a swipe of the pen, I agreed to the planning and cost of the publicity..
I didn't expect it, and I planted it unintentionally..
“Thank you." Renly couldn't help but chuckle, and regained his usual peace and calmness. He firmly believed that Heather was a ray of light, hidden among these thousands of rays of light, "I mean……”
Before the next words could be said, a bunch of figures rushed up. Paul Walker gave Renly a big hug, hugged Renly tightly, and then slapped Renly hard on the back. Back, without too many words, but expressing his support with practical actions.
The hug was so warm that Renly was a little overwhelmed, "Paul, I'm fine. I'm serious, I'm fine." Renly patted Paul's shoulder and said in a dumbfounded voice..
Paul then let go of his arms and said with red eyes, "Are you sure?？”
Renly stopped smiling and nodded solemnly, "Yes, I'm sure.”
Paul unexpectedly hugged Renly again, heavily and warmly, and then gave way. Then Renly saw Jennifer Lawrence standing in front of him..
The two people's eyes fell on each other. This was the first time they mentioned the topic of Heather's death. It seemed like centuries had passed, and they couldn't help but become strangers. Jennifer was a little at a loss, standing there, looking quietly. He dodged, but still mustered up the courage to meet Renly's gaze..
At this moment, Alexander Skarsgård, Rami Malek, and Donald Glover all stepped forward and hugged Renly warmly and kindly, one after another, as if they were queuing up. As if waiting for a hug, this made Renly laugh dumbly, "Guys, no need to hug, you can stop hugging. The audience is not here to see our crew falling in love with each other. If possible, they would like to see us live. fight.”
With a joke, the atmosphere at the scene became lively in an instant, and then the naughty audience began to wave their mobile phones. As a result, the light created a nightclub snow globe effect, and with a little music, everyone could dance..
Everyone burst into laughter.
The crew gradually left, and finally Renly and Jennifer were left standing face to face, exchanging glances..
Seeing Jennifer at a loss, Renly took the initiative to step forward, hugged Jennifer in a gentlemanly and polite manner, put the microphone aside, and whispered in her ear, "I'm fine. How about you?"？”
Jennifer has always had a big personality, and her mature temperament in her performance also shows wisdom and sophistication that belies her youth; but in the final analysis, she is still a young person, even a little younger than Renly. Years old. In the face of birth, old age, illness and death, she is a complete novice, helpless and at a loss..
With a hug, Jennifer's eyes filled with warmth again, and she said with a slightly trembling voice, "I...I'm fine. Don't worry about me." Then, she let go of the embrace, and Jennifer wiped the tears on her cheeks, Showing a big smile, "You know what? Heather has always believed unswervingly that you can do it, and she is right..”
“I know." Renly patted Jennifer's shoulder again, "Go and sit down, we are live broadcasting now..”
After finishing speaking, Renly followed Jennifer's footsteps and walked towards the sofa in the guest seat. The two hosts had also walked onto the stage, with Matt Lauer taking over the hosting baton first. "Wonderful, wonderful, really wonderful! The only thing I'm curious about is the mobile phone lights in the audience. Whose idea was this? My eyes are almost blind now. This is really a genius idea！”
“As far as I know, this was not anyone's idea, it was just a spontaneous action." Ann-Curry took over the conversation, "Renly's live singing was really too moving and too beautiful. Beautiful, so the audience could not suppress their inner cry, so they raised their mobile phones……”
The words were interrupted again, because the entire audience cheered. The mighty cheers echoed violently among the tall buildings on all sides, and the continuous echoes violently stirred above the eardrums. Such a scene, For the "Today Show", it was a strange sight. Even the two well-informed hosts couldn't help but open their mouths at this time...
“Renly, Renly, we need your help." Matt stopped Renly who was about to sit down and greeted him repeatedly, "Our live broadcast needs to continue, so the audience needs to calm down..”
At this time, Renly had completely calmed down. All the emotions of the song were kept deep in his heart, and his attention returned to today's activities. As Renly said, this is a hype, Heather Cross The foundation needs more attention so that it can help more people, so he must get into work mode.
This is not an easy task; but the performances in London's West End during this past period have finally allowed Renly to complete his transformation..
“Maybe you need to tell everyone, be careful if your phone is out of battery, they will..." Renly teased lightly, and before he even had time to finish, there was an ups and down of exclamations on the scene, and then you can see that The vast lights went out one after another, disappearing quickly like a tide, and the sunlight shrouded above the head fell again..
However, the sunlight was not as hot as the lights. The raging wind was coming in droves. I couldn't help but feel a little chill. Goosebumps appeared on the surface of my skin. Reason slowly returned to my brain..
Witnessing such a magical scene, both Matt and An burst into laughter, "It is indeed Renly." om，.
