This is a song I stumbled upon a year ago. Since then, it has been looping non-stop. The fresh and slightly magnetic male voice accompanied by the piano is light and gentle. Just like those childhood loves, pure and beautiful.
Fame.
Famous all over the world. I like this translation. No intrigue, no quick success. But there is a beauty full of vitality and hope.
This is a movie from 2009, when MGM was still there, and the roaring lion head made people extra friendly. This is a typical American movie about youth and struggle. It starts from the entrance selection and ends with the graduation performance. Four years of life has been a transformation. As it warned everyone at the beginning, "You got big dreams. You want fame? Well, fame costs. And right here is where you start paying, in sweat." Everyone pays for fame. Unfinished studies, halfway love, and ultimately broken dreams.
How should I put it, a typical American youth movie. Those storylines, those emotional ideas, there are no ups and downs, no surprises, and even the expressions are mediocre, and there is nothing particularly attractive. But something is pulling you down. Whether it's music, dancing, or even a monologue, there is a certain quality that draws you.
In the forty-third minute, Denise was in the empty auditorium, at the very center of the stage, singing loudly, looking for herself. That lonely figure.
In the fifty-eighth minute, in the restaurant after closing, Marco sang his own confession. At fifty-ninth minutes and fifty-eight seconds, Jenny got up to meet him. That nice little kiss.
One hour, twenty-eight minutes, and forty-seven seconds, Kevin slowly walked down the stairs, and everyone became a sham, the subway whizzing past. The man who cried bitterly.
One hour, thirty-six minutes and forty-five seconds, still the expression of resentment, the tangled eyebrows, finally couldn't help it, Mailk with tears.
One hour, twenty-five minutes, twenty-two seconds, Neil, that young face was full of astonishment. The monologue to DV, and the gesture that signifies the end. One hour, forty-seven minutes and eighteen seconds.
Everyone is trying to find success. Everyone wants to be famous all over the world. But, my dear, success in this world is not what everyone says.
Success, Jenny said in the one-man show, is when you wake up in the morning and feel so excited about what you're going to do, you run out the door. It's when you fall asleep at night, believing you've done your best. Success is love, happiness, freedom, and friendship.
Try is Marco's confession song, but it's not a confession song about life. Try for love. I don't know what you love, but you are at least in love with someone, something, something. Such days will not be boring, disappointed, or even hopeless. You have to know that there is no one else in this world, only yourself.
It's time for us to make a move.
