When I’m in a music show, I just want to make music seriously!

"Yeah, even though I'm a fan of only recording hits, I don't know why, but I feel a little nervous."

"I believe that if he only records hits, he is definitely the best!"

"I suddenly feel a bit hung up. You said that after laying the groundwork for so long, if we don't win the championship, it will be so embarrassing."

"It's not embarrassing at all. I just recorded a hit song and posted a video. I entered the competition just to share my music with everyone. It doesn't matter if I don't win."

"Yeah! Rankings and such aren't important when it comes to recording hit songs!"

Discussions like these begin to appear almost every time a player has a good performance.

Even many fans began to worry that only the performance on the Golden Melody stage would be recorded.

If we don’t do it well, we will really have no chance of winning the championship.

However, no matter how much you worry, the game must go on.

As time went by, the competition became increasingly intense, and gradually two or three very nice songs with meaningful arrangements and lyrics emerged, and some even seemed to be aiming for the championship.

The audience was also sweating, and they were a little confused about these songs. They felt that this one might win, and the other one seemed likely as well.

Moreover, the singers of these songs and their stage performances were all very impressive and amazing.

In this case, it feels a bit risky to win the championship just by recording the golden songs.

As the game progresses.

Finally, the host's announcement completely entered the most anticipated part:

"The next contestant will only record hits!!!"

“Ooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!”

The audience immediately erupted in cheers, and the atmosphere of the entire competition reached a complete climax in an instant, reaching an unprecedented height.

Even many people who watched the live broadcast called out to their friends.

'The Golden Hits are finally going to be performed!'

"Okay, okay, that's why I watched the live broadcast."

"Finally, I'm on stage. It's worth waiting for so long."

"The True God Appears!!!"

After the host finished speaking, the thousands of people in the stadium and the hundreds of thousands of viewers watching the live broadcast all held their breath and stared at the stage.

As a footstep appeared, the lights gathered, and only the golden songs were recorded, and they took the stage...

137. You were just born in an era without me!

Backstage, Taku Sakagami was watching the game.

In fact, many contestants don’t really watch other people’s competitions, for fear of affecting the rhythm of their own performances.

Taku Sakagami is not worried about these things. If there are good original songs, he will definitely want to see them.

There were a few pretty good songs at the beginning, and he must have heard them, but he was not worried.

The order of appearances in the game does have an impact, and it does.

For those who performed earlier, the judges may give high scores because they heard it for the first time and thought it was good.

As for those who appear later, if they are not very good, they will easily get low scores.

But at the same time, if there has been no popular song that wins the championship before, once a slightly better one comes along, it will be like a spring breeze for the judges.

Taku Sakagami chose to be the last to appear.

One is to whet the audience's appetite, and the other is that he appears too early. What if many people just come to see him, and after watching the song they think it's good, they become uninterested in the following contestants? This can easily discourage subsequent contestants and also easily cause the heat of this competition to be lost.

This order of performance was unanimously decided after consultation with the authorities. The other contestants were naturally happy about it. They could make use of the traffic of only recording golden songs and let the audience hear their songs. Why not? Even when Taku Sakagami agreed to this request, some singers who were in urgent need of popularity were full of favorability towards only recording golden songs.

After sitting backstage for a long time, Sakagami Taku soon received a notice that the next person to appear was about to appear.

He picked up the mask beside him, put it on, then put his guitar on his back and walked out.

The guitar was the Gibson Custom J-200 True Vintage that Sadaharu Toyokawa prepared for him last night.

When he saw it last night, he felt a little emotional.

You again, Gibson.

But unlike the cheap one that Taku Sakagami bought for 160,000 yen, this guitar costs more than 4 million yen. Yesterday, Taku Sakagami almost popped his eyes out. He couldn't help but play with it all night, and he almost lacked sleep, which affected his performance today.

However, Toyokawa Sadaharu seemed to say that it was either a gift for him or for use in his performance.

Well, that’s true. I don’t think Lao Deng would give him a guitar of this level.

Taku Sakagami didn't regret it. He had to cherish these two days and make full use of this Gibson!

I can only say that I have a connection with this brand in this life.

Walking to the back of the stage with big baby Gibson, Sakagami Taku began to wait for the previous contestant to finish.

As the host announced that "the next contestant will only record golden songs", Sakagami Taku took a deep breath and made sufficient preparations, and finally stepped onto the huge stage step by step.

———————————————————————————————————

Amidst everyone's anticipation, the lights came together, footsteps were heard, and as people's gazes focused, a figure slowly walked onto the stage.

He wore a black mask similar to that of a thief, in the shape of an inverted triangle, covering the upper half of his face. But even so, his angular jaw and upright posture still made people feel that there was definitely a handsome face under the mask.

He was wearing a black evening suit, but it seemed a little different. Although it was very formal, it looked cool and handsome on him.

And with the appearance of the golden song, countless eyes were focused on him.

Below the stage, the audience went completely wild.

Just by appearing on stage, the whole process was boiling, the heat reached a high point, and the cheers never stopped:

“Ooooh, only record the hits!!!”

“Finally on stage!!!”

"Come on!! We support you!!!"

“We must win the championship!!!”

These cheers gradually evolved from random shouts at the beginning to a unified tone: "Only record the golden songs! Only record the golden songs! Only record the golden songs!!!"

The cheers of everyone in the stadium echoed in agreement, shaking everyone's heart.

Even many female fans were screaming wildly. Although many people were looking forward to seeing the true face of the golden song singer in this competition, at this moment, when the other party appeared wearing a mask, it made them even more excited. Mystery is always the most anticipated existence.

In the audience, Toyokawa Shoko and others were also a little surprised to see the masked singer recording the golden song on the stage.

Even Yutenji Wakamugi couldn't help but raise his voice in surprise, "Wait a minute, didn't they run into us?!"

They're exactly the same! Although their masks are designed differently, they're essentially the same!

Toyokawa Shoko stroked her chin thoughtfully.

He did not choose to expose himself directly in this competition, but continued to shape his personality and IP.

Although she was a little surprised, she roughly guessed the other party's purpose of doing so, which was to gain more attention and attract the audience's curiosity.

It just so happens that she can also see the effect of only recording golden songs and use it as a reference.

Just as surprised as they were, there were countless other bands or singers who came here specifically to watch the Golden Songs competition.

No one expected that he would not show his face this time when recording the golden song, but just wore a mask.

But even so, all the fans and audiences were not disappointed. On the contrary, they became even more excited and crazy, and gradually began to wonder what the true face under the mask looked like.

On the competition stage, only the singer with a microphone was present, signaling the audience to be quiet.

Then, just like the opening remarks in previous video speeches, there was no excessive nonsense, no introduction to the origin of the song, and no words of pity or saying anything about family accidents.

Facing the hundreds of thousands of people in front of their phones, he simply said, "The name of the song below is 'Lemon.' The result of this competition is not important to me. I just want to share good music with everyone, that's all."

After cheering for his opening remarks for a while, the audience gradually quieted down.

Taku Sakagami nodded, and then he and the event organizer nodded, indicating that they could begin.

The venue was completely quiet, and everyone was looking forward to the songs that would be recorded today.

As the game started, Taku Sakagami did not use the guitar in his hand immediately.

In just a moment, Sakagami Taku was completely in the mood.

The lyrics begin with a monophonic piano melody, and only four sets of repeated scales are used to create a sad but not sorrowful tone, bringing everyone into the melody of the song in an instant.

The song has no prelude. It starts with a simple and leisurely breathing sound, and then the whole song begins.

The opening is a king bomb!!!

“If all this were just a dream,

I can still find you in my dreams

Like returning home to retrieve something forgotten

......"

As soon as the first two sentences came out, everyone's eyes could no longer be taken away.

Even the judges in the audience were filled with surprise.

As professional judges, they understand more than the audience.

Although the melody of the lyrics at the beginning is the same, the way the fifteen notes are combined is completely different.

Just an opening and a few lines of lyrics, and the atmosphere of the whole song comes out instantly.

It's like a person constantly hoping and expecting something to happen.

At this moment, the audience who had previously doubted that he would only record golden songs and worried that he would not be able to win the championship no longer had these thoughts in their hearts.

What lingered in their hearts was only the shock and enjoyment of the entire song.

When one contestant's score is 100 or 110, and another contestant's score is 95 or 105, it is indeed difficult to distinguish their strengths and weaknesses.

However, when one person's score reaches 1,000 points, while other players only have 100 points, in this case, there is no need to worry about who is better.

Because it doesn't make sense, and there's no need to even think about it to decide.

No need to question, no need to rate, no need to vote, no need to compare, no need to worry about who is better.

When he is good enough, he will be recognized by everyone just by standing there.

When the song came on, the competition had already ended, and all the contestants who had arrived at the box viewing seats were sweating profusely.

At this moment, they were suddenly glad that the golden song was the last one to be recorded, and not before them.

Everyone in the audience had only one thought in their minds:

The champion has emerged.

138. The race is over and the winner is clear (5k)

Under the stage, watching the performance of songs that only included golden hits, Yutenji Wakamugi was a little dumbfounded.

Are you kidding me...

The moment the lyrics and music of the song came out, she was completely amazed.

Whether it is the stage performance, the arrangement and lyrics of the songs, or even the image design, this first competition performance where he only recorded golden songs is top-notch.

The sound of the piano cuts right into the song without any need for explanation.

His singing voice has clearly and directly expressed the theme of the song.

Cleaning up the dusty memories

Happiness is irreversible

You finally told me

...]

The lyrics seem to appear with a sense of reminiscence, and the flow and lines of the song gradually become apparent.

Moreover, at the end of the sentence where the rhythm changes, there is a perfect flick, so that the rhythm does not change abruptly.
