Chapter 811 Spanish Songs
“What? Thiel, do you mean that Young doesn’t like Eva’s photography project?” Sally looked at Chen Xuan in surprise.
Although the other two models did not speak, they looked at Chen Xuan and Xiao Yao in surprise.
The three models played cards with Xiao Yao at the same table, and Chen Xuan’s words were naturally heard by them. In their thinking, a world-class brand like Eva should be the object that every fashion photographer wants to collaborate with. And Eva is notoriously picky, not only very strict with models, but also very picky with photographers. Eva has never looked down on photographers, and I haven’t heard of a photographer who looks down on Eva’s camera projects.
“No, it’s not that I look down on it, but I don’t have time.” Xiao Yao hurriedly waved his hand, “I am still a student and work a lot. I may not be able to spare such a long time for this kind of photography project.”
“A lot of work? No time? So what are you doing here these few days?” Sally looked at Xiao Yao with weird eyes, “I don’t think you are busy at all!”
“This…” Xiao Yao was speechless.
“Yang! Come here!” Just as Xiao Yao was a little embarrassed, a shout suddenly came from the band.
“Come!” Xiao Yao, who was a little embarrassed, heard it, immediately raised his hand and agreed, stood up and slipped away.
“What’s the matter?” Xiao Yao walked to the band and asked Karina, who was standing next to the band. He heard the voice calling him Karina just now.
“I want you to play the tambourine, just like the one you played in the alley in the old town of San Juan that day.” Karina pointed to the two tambourines on the ground.
Just now, after their models came in, they all stood by the band and danced while listening to songs. After listening for almost half an hour, everyone gradually became more and more relaxed. As one of the band’s songs ended, the lively Jacqueline ran to the band’s tambourine player and reached for the tambourine. There was a few random knocks on it. The musicians didn’t mind the actions of these supermodel girls. Besides, everyone had performed for almost half an hour and it was time to take a break. The musician who played the tambourine stood up and gave the position to Jackie. Lin, let her knock and play casually.
Seeing the musicians give way to Jacqueline to play the tambourine, Karina immediately thought of the experience of the day she went to San Juan’s old town. Xiao Yao accompany her and Abby’s dance with tambourines. Not only did she perform very well, but also the tune was the same as that of the local man before. Since the musicians didn’t mind that they played the instrument, instead of letting Jacqueline knock it randomly, it was better to let Xiao Yao come to show everyone, so Karina shouted Xiao Yao loudly.
“Are you going to dance?” Xiao Yao didn’t immediately agree, but smiled and looked up and down at Karina and said, “If you dance the dance we saw that day, I am willing to help you with the same as that day.”
Karina, who came to the party at night, wore a white dress. The skirt of the lower body that reached the ankle length was very loose. Although it was not the local traditional dress that day, it was not a problem to pick up both sides to do that kind of dance.
“Young, what are you talking about?” a model next to him asked curiously.
“When we went to San Juan that day, we ran into a few local people playing tambourines and dancing. Karina and I learned that kind of dance. Yang learned the drummer’s music on the spot and played the tambourine on the spot. We played it for a while.” Abby helped to explain.
“Wow, do you have this kind of experience?” The model next to him called out, and immediately started booing, “Come on!”
“Come here!” The other people nearby also clapped their hands and shouted. Even the band members and some locals joined in. Jacqueline slapped the tambourine in front of him very quickly to cheer everyone.
“Abby, let’s be together!” Karina stretched out her hand to pull Abby.
“No, you’ll be fine!” Abby flinched, “I don’t jump as well as you, and the clothes are not suitable!”
“Come on!” Karina nodded with a generous smile without reluctance.
Jacqueline also knocked indiscriminately for a while, experiencing a hand addiction. Seeing that Karina had agreed, she stood up and gave the position beside the tambourine to Xiao Yao.
Xiao Yao still remembers the tune I heard a few days ago. After sitting down, he knocked it up. Xiao Yao has not heard this song before, but it should be very popular in the local area. When Xiao Yao knocked like this, the musician who played the tambourine smiled and nodded frequently. Some local people nearby also danced the skirt dance with Karina.
Jumped for a while, Xiao Yao finished the performance, got up and returned the position beside the tambourine to the original musician, planning to walk to the side to listen to the song, but several models did not easily let Xiao Yao off.
“Young, just playing the tambourine is not enough!” Jacqueline, who was watching happily, stopped Xiao Yao and said, “I remember that Thiel said that you are a singer and have many kinds of instruments. The best thing is piano and guitar. Can you give us a show?”
“Yes, I remembered too, Thiel said you can still play the piano and sing to us.” Karina also remembered Xiao Yao’s introduction on the first day when Chen Xuan came, and said to the side.
“You seem to have promised that day.” Abby also said, recalling the scene of the day.
These models said each one, Xiao Yao felt that he couldn’t help it, and quickly smiled and raised his hand in surrender, saying: “Okay, I’ll sing!”
“Sir, can I borrow your guitar for a while?” Xiao Yao said to the lead singer and guitarist.
“Yes,” the musician took off the acoustic guitar in his hand and handed it to Xiao Yao. He picked up an electric guitar from the side and asked Xiao Yao with a smile, “What are you going to sing? I need us to help you. Accompaniment?”
“Uh ” Xiao Yao hesitated, then turned to ask the models, “What do you want to listen to?” He thinks that the models should want to listen to his songs, but he doesn’t have many English songs, so he is not sure about this band. Will it be?
“I can still order a song, can I listen to anything?” Jacqueline blinked.
“I try my best, as long as I can!” Xiao Yao didn’t say anything.
“Since we are in Puerto Rico, of course we want to listen to Latin music, preferably in Spanish, if you write it yourself, it would be even better!” Jacqueline deliberately asked Xiao Yao a problem.
“This…” Xiao Yao frowned in embarrassment.
“Don’t mind, it’s just a joke…” Jacqueline smiled triumphantly at Xiao Yao’s embarrassed expression. But she didn’t intend to make Xiao Yao embarrassed, she was about to let Xiao Yao sing, but Xiao Yao interrupted with a smile.
“There are Spanish and Latin songs I wrote myself, but they haven’t been published yet. These musicians certainly won’t. But if they are only accompanied by an acoustic guitar, the effect is not good enough.” Xiao Yao smiled, “But since You want to listen, I think you shouldn’t mind waiting a while. I’m writing to them the performances of various instruments, and they should still be able to perform them.”
“Do you have any blank sheet music and pens?” Xiao Yao turned to ask the lead singer of the band.
“Yes!” The lead singer of the band stared in amazement, then nodded again and again. They are a band with creative ability, and they carry blank sheet music and pencils with them.
After a while, the lead singer came back with a blank sheet of music and a pencil.
“You sing two more songs, give me a few minutes.” Xiao Yao took off the acoustic guitar that had been carried on his back and put it away, and took the pen and paper.
“No, I want to see you write the score.” The lead singer said.
Now that Xiao Yao is making a fuss, who still wants to hear them sing? Haven’t seen a group of people next to him are all staring, ready to watch him write scores on the spot?
“Okay! You can read it first after you write it.” Xiao Yao didn’t care, and nodded.
There was no special table at the scene, but since Xiao Yao was called by Karina, Sally and the others had no intention of continuing to play. They also ran over to watch Xiao Yao perform. Did not come back to continue, just vacated the table. Xiao Yao took a pen and paper and sat at the table where he was playing cards just now, and wrote on the square tray.
“Drum set score!” A few minutes later, Xiao Yao took out a piece of paper and handed it to the lead singer, “Let the drummer get familiar with it first!”
“A separate musical score?!” The lead singer was a little dumbfounded.
“Yes!” Xiao Yao answered without raising his head, and continued to draw other scores.
“This is the score of the keyboard!” A few minutes later, Xiao Yao pulled out two more paper tracks.
“This is bass score!” Xiao Yao took out two more sheets, which also only took a few minutes.
“Tambourine…” Xiao Yao took out two more pieces of paper.
“Do you also have a tambourine?” The musician who played the tambourine did not answer, but looked at Xiao Yao in disbelief.
“I don’t know how to do tambourines, so this is a normal staff. I use black dots to mark the places where tambourines are needed. I believe you should be able to understand them!” Xiao Yao said.
“Oh,” the musician who played the tambourine nodded, and then said again, “You can think of this way, you’re amazing!”
“This is yours, you are in charge of the electric guitar!” Xiao Yao finally handed over two pieces of paper to the lead singer, “I have marked the parts that require your accompaniment, follow-up, and harmony. I hope we can have a happy cooperation. !”
“Okay, no problem!” After the lead singer was surprised, now the whole person is already excited.
Through the previous scores, members of their band have silently hummed this song. They feel that this is a great song, and whether it is melody or lyrics, it is indeed very Latin, and they are confident that they can win it. They didn’t even know the person in front of him before, and it was the score they just got, let alone rehearsal, and they didn’t even cooperate. Performing a completely strange song with someone they don’t know is the first time they have done this kind of thing. It would be a feat for them to successfully perform this song if they cooperated for the first time.
After giving the band members a few more minutes to familiarize themselves with the score, Xiao Yao picked up the acoustic guitar again and stood behind the microphone.
“HolaATodos!” Xiao Yao raised his hand to the microphone and said hello.
“Wow ”
Xiao Yao just greeted him and said “Hello everyone.” Whether it was the models or the locals, everyone cheered and applauded enthusiastically. Because Xiao Yao said hello in Spanish, and he spoke very standard and fluently.
“I will bring you a song “Despacito” below, I hope you like it!” Xiao Yao smiled, and did not show off his Spanish, briefly introduced the title of the song, and then plucked the strings of the acoustic guitar in his hand.
“Ay ” After a short period of quick guitar playing, Xiao Yao approached the microphone and yelled softly, and then instruments such as drums, electric guitars, and bass joined in.
“Oh OhNO Yeah Go!” In the multi-instrument prelude, Xiao Yao twisted his body and sang a few times. With a soft drink of “go”, he officially began to sing the main part of the song.
This “Despacito” is a Spanish song from a previous life. The original version was sung by LuisFonsi and DaddyYankee. Now Xiao Yao is the only vocalist when he gets it here to sing. Naturally, some modifications are needed.
In the beginning of , the part where the two called each other’s name was removed by Xiao Yao, and only the singing part was kept. In the main part of the song, the DY at the end of the second sentence of the main song was removed by Xiao Yao, and the accompaniment and follow-up vocals at the end of the other sentences were given to the band’s musicians to cooperate.
Apart from these, this song performed by Xiao Yao is not much different from the original version of the previous life. Although the original version was made by the two singers, they basically sang in turn. Xiao Yao has no problems with language. Whether he is singing or rap, he has enough ability to control. At most, he needs to pay attention to some ventilation skills when singing. Therefore, it is completely fine for Xiao Yao to complete this song that was originally a collaboration between the two.
In the previous life, although the real global fire of this song came after the English-language mixed version cooperating with JustinBieber won the Billboard Championship for 16 consecutive weeks, but before that version appeared, the original Spanish version of the song was in the United States, The mainstream music software download charts in 16 countries including Colombia and Argentina won the championship, and it was certified as a Colombian gold single in less than 10 days after its release. It is already very popular and popular in Spanish and Latin regions.
Today, Vieques, Puerto Rico, where Xiao Yao is located, also belongs to the Latin area where Spanish is spoken. Xiao Yao took a song from the popular Latin area in his previous life to perform here, and naturally he also conquered everyone present.
“Despacito ” After singing the last lyrics, Xiao Yao stretched out his arms and bowed to the audience with a smile, ending the performance of the whole song.
“Bravo ” Everyone at the scene applauded and cheered.
Hearing such a Spanish song, especially the lyrics also mentioned “Puerto Rico’s beach”, which made the locals feel more like this song and Xiao Yao. The cheers and applause of the locals who did not know Xiao Yao were even louder than those of Eva’s models.
“Encore!”
“Encore!”
But when it comes to familiarity, of course, those models are more familiar with Xiao Yao. Seeing that Xiao Yao was about to pick up the acoustic guitar, the models who hadn’t heard of it yelled again.
“But I only have this Latin song in Spanish.” Xiao Yao smiled bitterly.
In his previous life, Xiao Yao knew very few Latin songs, and even fewer in Spanish. In addition to this “Despacito”, Xiao Yao is more impressed by Alizee’s cover of Madonna’s “LaIslaBonita” and Ricky Martin’s “Cup of Life”. But “LaIslaBonita” is mainly in English, with very little Spanish, and it is a song by a female singer. Xiao Yao feels it is not suitable for singing here. As for Ricky Martin’s “Ale, Ale, Ale”, Xiao Yao felt even more inappropriate. Except during the World Cup in his previous life, he basically didn’t listen to that song.
“Then sing this song again.” A model named Rosa Penia shouted. She is from Argentina. She is one of the twelve models who can understand Spanish, and may also like this song the most.
“Okay!” Xiao Yao smiled and nodded, gestured to the band, and started the second singing.
Under normal circumstances, Xiao Yao would not bother the audience shouting “Encore”, let alone sing a song twice in succession. However, in this environment tonight, Xiao Yao feels that it is more important for everyone to have a good time, so he tries not to discourage everyone. Another reason is that this is after all Xiao Yao’s first collaboration with this band, and there are inevitably some small flaws in the performance just now. Once again, if you are more skilled, everyone’s performance should be better.
Xiao Yao sings a song that has not been released yet. Just now, the models mainly listened to Xiao Yao singing, and they all stood in front of Xiao Yao and the band. At most, they clapped to the rhythm and shook their bodies at will. Now when Xiao Yao sings again, the models who have heard it once have become more active, dancing with Xiao Yao’s singing, and truly enjoying the joyous atmosphere of this song.
The four models Karina, Jacqueline, Sally and Rosa walked into the middle of the band and surrounded the singing Xiao Yao. Not only did they dance to the music, they also cast a small look from time to time and made two small moves to tease Xiao Yao on purpose. As a result, Xiao Yao was amused several times by several people, and a few words of lyrics were missed in the middle. Although the band members were not affected and the performance continued, overall, this performance was not even as good as the first time.
However, this is just a party, not a formal performance occasion, just have a good time. No one cares much about these small mistakes. Xiao Yao’s performance made everyone feel happier.
