Author Note: Since this is a musical chapter, I may have to take down that chapter later if I were to get this story published. But in the words of the late Freddie Mercury, "You can do what you want with my music, but don't make me boring."
Also, if you want to see a solo piano cover for Bohemian Rhapsody on YouTube, I suggest Marc Martel's cover which he absolutely nailed.
Enjoy~
————————————————————
One man may think this is just a song but in fact, it is around 5 or 6 songs joined up together. Each of them has its own emotions and when these songs were lined up together, they created the perfect emotional roller coaster.
That roller coaster was now taking some of the most talented people in the world of music to ups and downs never traversed before. A style of music that would appear not even a couple of centuries later but it was nonetheless something not repulsive or hard to the ears of someone from the era. It was classic at times, dramatic, theatric, and story-based, starting from life to death across love and tragedy.
As she finished the first four lines, her piano play upped its pace and displayed a skill that can't be scoffed at even by the best composers in the world, and despite not having an angelic voice or the best reputation at the moment, she sang confidently and sweetly, combining her strong clear voice with her accurate and fluent accent.
🎵 Open your eyes, look up to the skies and see... 🎵
But then it started to get personal and words made meaning.
🎵 I'm just a bad girl, I need no sympathy... 🎵
The piano play then shifted from the melodic smooth play to a pace that supported the feeling given by the lyrics.
🎵 Because I'm easy come, easy go, little high, little low... 🎵
And then back gradually to the proper classical notes.
🎵 Any way the wind blows doesn't really matter to me... to me... 🎵
As the first phase of the song was over, a few seconds were taken to crossover to a new set of tones and a new kind of emotion not so distant from the previous one.
At that time, Vivian turned her gaze to her father, whose seat wasn't far behind the judges.
🎵 Mama... 🎵
🎵 Just killed a man... 🎵
Calling her mother, speaking about the recent accident where she shot a man. It stirred the crowd right up and didn't leave any of them breathing. It wasn't just a song because it was known to everyone what happened to her a few days ago when she was attacked and when she shot her attacker right in the eye.
While it was a shock to everyone, it was a whole different thing to her father who watched her with pitying eyes and his solemness melted away.
But her next words made those who didn't breathe hold their breath even longer.
🎵 Put a gun against his head, pulled my trigger, now he's dead... 🎵
A chilling choice of words from the one known to be the villainess, yet her words displayed emotions unexpected of her. Regret? Fear? Longing for her late mother?
🎵 Mama, life had just begun... 🎵 But now I've gone and thrown it all away... 🎵
The sad notes struck with the strong echo that vibrated in the hall of ceremonies. Such a small girl made her echo strike deep like magic and aura yet with only just music and emotions while she was just calling for a mother she bitterly missed.
