Entertaining Children

Chapter 484 Spanish Songs

"What? Thielle, you mean that Jan doesn't like Eva's photography project?" Sally looked at Chen Xuan in surprise and said.

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 work with. And Eva is notoriously picky, not only very strict on models, but also very picky on photographers. Eva has never been the only one who doesn't like photographers, and I haven't heard of any photographer who doesn't like Eva's photography project.

"No, it's not that I don't like it, but that I don't have time." Xiao Yao quickly waved his hands and said, "I'm still a student and I have a lot of work, so I may not be able to spare such a long time for this kind of photography project."

"A lot of work? No time? Then what are you doing here these days?" Sally looked at Xiao Yao with strange eyes and said, "I don't think you are busy at all!"

"This..." Xiao Yao was speechless.

"Yang! Come here!" Just when Xiao Yao was a little embarrassed, there was a burst of shouts from the band.

"Here we come!" Xiao Yao, who was a little embarrassed, heard this, immediately raised his hand in agreement, 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 recognized the voice calling him Karina.

"I want you to perform a tambourine performance, just like the one played in the alleys of Old San Juan that day." Karina pointed to the two tambourines on the ground.

When several of their models came in just now, they all stood by the band and listened to the music while twisting their bodies and dancing at will. After listening for about half an hour, everyone gradually became more and more relaxed. Taking advantage of the end of a song of the band, the lively Jacqueline ran to the player who was playing the tambourine in the band, and reached out to the tambourine as well. Knocked a few times indiscriminately. The musicians didn't mind the behavior of these supermodel girls. In addition, everyone performed for almost half an hour, and it was time to take a break. The musician who played the tambourine simply stood up and gave up his seat 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 when she visited Old San Juan. Xiao Yao used tambourines to accompany her and Abby's dance. Not only did she play very well, but the tune was also the same as that played by the local before. Since the musicians don't mind them playing instruments, instead of letting Jacqueline knock randomly, it's better to let Xiao Yao come and show everyone, so Karina called Xiao Yao loudly.

"Are you going to dance?" Xiao Yao didn't agree right away, but looked up and down at Karina with a smile and said, "If you dance the dance we saw that day now, I'd like to accompany you like that day."

Karina, who came to the party at night, was wearing a white dress. The lower part of the skirt that reached to the ankle was very loose. Although it was not the local traditional dress that day, it was no problem to lift the sides and do that kind of dance.

"Yang, what are you talking about?" A model beside him asked curiously.

"When we went to San Juan that day, we met a few local people playing tambourine and dancing. Karina and I learned that dance, and Jan learned the drummer's tune on the spot, playing the tambourine on the spot. We had an accompaniment," Abby helped explain.

"Wow, do you guys still have this kind of experience?" The model next to her yelled, and immediately started booing, "Come one!"

"Come one!" The other people next to them also clapped their hands and shouted, even band members and some locals joined in, and Jacqueline slapped the tambourine in front of her very quickly to cheer everyone up.

"Abby, let's go together!" Karina reached out and pulled Abby.

"No, just come here!" Abby shrank back, "I can't dance as well as you, and my clothes don't fit!"

"Come on!" Karina didn't force herself, and nodded with a generous smile.

Jacqueline also knocked randomly for a while,

Passed the hand addiction. Seeing that Karina agreed, she stood up and gave Xiao Yao the seat next to the tambourine.

Xiao Yao still remembered the tune he heard a few days ago. After sitting down, he knocked up casually. Xiao Yao hadn't heard this song before, but it should be very popular in the local area. When Xiao Yao knocked like this, the tambourine player on the side smiled and nodded frequently, and some local people next to him also danced the dance of putting on skirts with Karina.

After dancing for a while, Xiao Yao finished playing, got up and returned the position next to the tambourine to the original musician, intending to go to the side to listen to the song, but several models did not let Xiao Yao go so easily.

"Yang, just playing the tambourine is not enough!" Jacqueline, who was watching happily, stopped Xiao Yao and said, "I remember Thiel said that you are a singer, you can play many kinds of instruments, and you are best at piano and guitar. Can you give us a show?"

"Yeah, I remembered it too. Thiel said that you can still play the piano and sing for us." Karina also remembered Chen Xuan's introduction when Xiao Yao came on the first day, and chimed in.

"You seem to have promised that day." Abby, who also recalled the scene that day, also said.

Xiao Yao felt overwhelmed by each of these models, and quickly smiled and raised his hands in a gesture of surrender: "Okay, I'll sing!"

"Sir, can I borrow your guitar for a while?" Xiao Yao asked the lead singer and guitarist.

"Yes," the musician took off the acoustic guitar in his hand and handed it to Xiao Yao, then picked up an electric guitar from the side, and asked Xiao Yao with a smile, "What do you want to sing? We need to help you." Accompaniment?"

"Uh~" Xiao Yao hesitated for a moment, then turned to ask the models, "What do you want to hear?" He thought the models probably wanted to listen to his songs, but he didn't have many English songs, so he wasn't sure about the band. Will it.

"You can still order songs, can you listen to anything you want?" Jacqueline blinked and said.

"I'll try my best, as long as I know how to do it!" Xiao Yao didn't finish his sentence.

"Since we are in Puerto Rico, of course we want to listen to Latin music, preferably in Spanish, and it would be even better if you wrote it yourself!" Jacqueline asked Xiao Yao deliberately.

"This..." Xiao Yao frowned in embarrassment.

"Don't mind, it's just a joke..." Seeing Xiao Yao's embarrassed look, Jacqueline showed a smug smile. But she didn't intend to make Xiao Yao look bad, and was about to let Xiao Yao go and let him sing something casually, but Xiao Yao interrupted with a smile.

"I do have Spanish Latin songs written by myself, but they haven't been published yet. These musicians certainly won't, but if it's just an acoustic guitar accompaniment, the effect is not good enough." Xiao Yao said with a smile, "But since If you want to hear it, I think you don’t mind waiting a while. I’m writing them the scores for performances of various instruments now, and they should still be able to perform them.”

"Do you have blank score paper and pens?" Xiao Yao turned to ask the lead singer of the band.

"Yes!" The lead singer of the band stared in astonishment, then nodded repeatedly. They're a creative band, and they always carry blank sheet music and pencils with them.

After a while, the lead singer returned with blank sheet music and pencils.

"You guys 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, took the pen and paper and said.

"No, I want to see you write the score." The lead singer said.

Now that Xiao Yao has made such a fuss, who cares about listening to them sing? Didn't you see a group of people next to him staring at him, ready to watch him write the score on the spot?

"Okay! You can read it after writing it." Xiao Yao didn't care, and nodded.

There was no special table at the scene, but since Xiao Yao was called over by Karina, Sally and the others had no intention of continuing to play, and ran over to watch Xiao Yao's performance. He didn't come back to continue, and just emptied that table. Xiao Yao took a pen and paper and sat down at the table where he was playing cards just now, and began to write on the square tray.

"The score of the drum set!" 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!"

"Separate instrument score?!" The lead singer was a little dumbfounded.

"Yes!" Xiao Yao replied without raising his head, and continued to draw other scores.

"This is the keyboard score!" A few minutes later, Xiao Yao pulled out two more sheets of paper and said.

"This is the score of Bass!" Xiao Yao pulled out two more sheets of paper, and it only took a few minutes.

"Tambourine..." Xiao Yao pulled out two more pieces of paper.

"You can play tambourines too?" The tambourine player didn't answer, but looked at Xiao Yao in disbelief.

"I don't know how to play tambourine, so this is an ordinary stave. Where tambourine is needed, I marked it with black dots. I believe you should be able to understand it!" Xiao Yao said.

"Oh," the tambourine player nodded, and then said, "You can also come up with this kind of method, you are amazing!"

"This is yours, you are in charge of the electric guitar!" Xiao Yao finally handed two pieces of paper to the lead singer, "I have marked out the part that needs your accompaniment, singing, and harmony, and 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, the members of their band have hummed this song silently. They felt it was a great song, and it was really Latin in both the melody and the lyrics, and they were confident they could pull it off. They didn't know the person in front of them at all before, and they just got the score, let alone rehearsal, they didn't even cooperate. Performing a completely unfamiliar song with someone they don't know is the first time they have done this. It would be a feat for them if they can successfully perform this song 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.

"!" Xiao Yao raised his hand to the microphone to say hello.

"Wow~"

Xiao Yao just said hello and said "Hello everyone", whether it's the models or the locals, everyone cheered and applauded enthusiastically. Because Xiao Yao's greeting was in Spanish, and he spoke it very standard and fluently.

"I'm going to bring you the song "Despacito", I hope you like it!" Xiao Yao smiled, and without showing off his Spanish, he briefly introduced the title of the song, and then plucked the strings of the acoustic guitar in his hand.

"Ay~" After a short quick guitar playing, Xiao Yao approached the microphone and shouted softly, and then drums, electric guitars, bass and other instruments joined in.

"Oh~OhNO~Yeah~Go!" In the multi-instrumental prelude, Xiao Yao casually twisted his body and sang a few times. With a soft "go", he officially started singing the main part of the song.

This "Despacito" is a Spanish song from the previous life. The original version was sung by Luis Fonsi and Daddy Yankee. Now when Xiao Yao brought it here to sing it, he was the only lead singer, so he naturally had to make some changes.

In the beginning, the part where the two called each other's names was removed by Xiao Yao, and only the chanting parts were kept. In the main part of the song, Xiao Yao removed the DY at the end of the second sentence of the main song, and the accompaniment and follow-up singing at the end of the other sentences were handed over to several musicians in the band to cooperate.

Apart from these, the song performed by Xiao Yao is not much different from the original version in the previous life. Although the original version was completed by two singers, they basically took turns singing. Xiao Yao has no problem with language. Whether it is singing or rapping, he has enough ability to control it. At most, he needs to pay attention to some ventilation skills when singing. Therefore, there is no problem at all for Xiao Yao to complete this song originally composed of two people alone.

In the previous life, although the song’s real global popularity was after the English remix version with Justin Bieber won Billboard’s 16th week in a row, but before that version appeared, the original Spanish version of the song was in the United States, It won the championship on the mainstream music software download charts in 16 countries, including Colombia and Argentina, and won the Colombian gold single certification within 10 days of its release. It is already very popular and popular in Spanish and Latin regions.

The Puerto Rico Vieques Island where Xiao Yao is now also belongs to the Spanish-speaking Latin area. Xiao Yao brought a song that was popular in the Latin area in his previous life to perform here, and naturally conquered everyone present.

"Despacito~" After singing the last lyric, 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 mention of "Puerto Rico's beach" in the lyrics, made the locals feel more fond of the song and Xiao Yao. The cheers and applause from the locals who didn't know Xiao Yao were even louder than those of Eva's models.

"!"

"!"

But when it comes to familiarity, of course those models are more familiar with Xiao Yao. Seeing that Xiao Yao was about to take off the acoustic guitar on his body, the models who hadn't listened to it shouted again.

"But I only have this Latin song in Spanish." Xiao Yao smiled wryly.

In his previous life, Xiao Yao knew very few Latin songs, even less in Spanish. Apart from the song "Despacito", what Xiao Yao is more impressed with is Alizee's rendition of Madonna's "" and Ricky Martin's "Cup of Life". But "" is mainly in English, with very little Spanish, and it is a song by a female singer. Xiao Yao feels that it is not suitable to sing here. As for Ricky Martin's "Ale, Ale, Ale", Xiao Yao felt that it was 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. Originally from Argentina, she was the only one of the twelve models who knew Spanish, and probably the one who liked the song the most.

"Okay!" Xiao Yao nodded with a smile, signaled to the band, and started the second singing.

Under normal circumstances, Xiao Yao would not pay attention to the audience shouting "Encore", let alone sing a song twice in succession. However, under the environment tonight, Xiao Yao felt that it was more important for everyone to have fun, so he tried not to spoil everyone's happiness. Another reason is that this is Xiao Yao's first collaboration with this band after all, and there were inevitably some small flaws in the performance just now. Let's do it again, if you cooperate more skillfully, everyone's performance should be better.

Xiao Yao sang an unpublished song. Just now the models mainly listened to Xiao Yao's singing, and they all stood in front of Xiao Yao and the band. At most, they clapped and tapped to the rhythm, and twisted their bodies casually. Now when Xiao Yao sang again, the models who had heard it once became much more active, and they all danced along with Xiao Yao's singing, truly enjoying the joyous atmosphere brought by this song.

The four models Karina, Jacqueline, Sally and Rosa walked to the middle of the band and surrounded Xiao Yao who was singing. They not only danced to the music, but also cast small glances from time to time, made two small movements, and deliberately touched Xiao Yao. As a result, Xiao Yao was amused by several people and laughed several times, and he missed a few lines of lyrics in the middle and did not sing. Although the band members were not affected and continued the performance, overall, this performance was not even as good as the first time.

However, this is just a party, not a formal performance, just have fun. Everyone doesn't care much about these small mistakes. Xiao Yao's performance made everyone feel happier.
