Back with a new song. I think I will even use songs that not everybody is
going to know... I don't own „Hero". Nuff said, let's start!
A parody not meant to be one
Daisuke swallowed. He didn't know the song very well and now he didn't even know anymore why he had chosen it. Now he was standing here, going to make a fool of himself. He glanced over to his friends. Taichi and Yamato had not come back yet, and the others looked at him rewarding he would sing something special, not the common song he had picked.
The music started and the first line appeared on the screen. He tried hard not to miss his intonation and succeeded.
"Would you dance if I asked you to dance
Would you run and never look back
Would you cry if you saw me crying
Would you save my soul tonight"
His voice was shaking, he was not sure about the notes, but after a few lines it worked better.
„Would you tremble if I touched your lips
Would you laugh oh please tell me this
Now would you die for the one you love
Hold me in your arms tonight"
He took a deep breath before it was chorus time. He saw Ken who watched him, and that encouraged him.
"I can be your hero baby
I can kiss away the pain
I will stand by you forever
You can take my breath away"
He was very surprised that he didn't miss a note... then he realized that he had stood all the time rigid as an ice-cube, and started to move a bit.
"Would you swear that you'll always be mine
Would you lie would you remember
Am I in too deep, have I lost my mind?
I don't care - you're here tonight"
Realizing it was very much harder to sing while moving, he stopped but then he remembered a concert on which Enrique Iglesias sung the song, and he wrapped his hands around the microphone as the Latin lover always does. (I hope you've seen that once... it looks... weird)
"I can be your hero baby
I can kiss away the pain
I will stand by you forever
You can take my breath away"
Daisuke still clinched the make, trying to imitate Mr. Iglesias as well as he could. His eyes almost never lost contact with the Karaoke-monitor and so he couldn't see the reaction to his singing clearly. He didn't notice he looked very ridiculous.
"Ohhh I just wanna hold you,
I just wanna hold you, oh yeah
Am I in too deep, have I lost my mind
I don't care - you're here tonight"
Suddenly he remarked that Tai and Yamato had come back from whatever they had done (...) and this made him nervous. Yamato was such a great singer, he would laugh at him. Daisuke screwed the next verse.
"I-I can be your hero baby
I can kiss away the pain"
He shouted the following lines to recover his self-confidence. Iglesias always moved his arms around the microphone in a very special way, Daisuke was hardly trying to act like him.
„Oh yeah!
"I will stand by you forever
You can take my breath away"
Watching Ken and ignoring Yamato helped him to continue the song. He didn't realize anymore reaction of the people. He could now sing them by heart. So he gave everything and thougt he was a great latin star...
„I can be your hero
I can kiss away the pain
And I will stand by you forever
You can take my breath away"
He rote down the ending, just wanting to escape (hey, isn't this a song be Enrique, too?) the stage.
"You can take my breath away
I can be your hero" the last line was mumbled and as soon as possible Daisuke made his way back to the DDs, ignoring the cheering the hall gave.
He sat down next to Ken and looked down. „You were lovely!" Ken said and embraced him. All the others said he was good, too, and he believed them. Hikari giggled and he asked why, so she told him that his parody of Iglesias was great and really funny. „Oh" was his only comment. So the other thought he was kidding! But he had done his best to imitate the Latin star... He sighed. At least they liked it.
While an old man sung an Enka (traditional Japanese music), the chosen ordered some drinks, but before they were served, Sora was called to the stage...
**************************************************************************** *************
Uhm, I wrote this in *looks at her clock* not more than 20 minutes! And, yeah, you read right, the next one is Sora... if I don't get the ultimate Sora-Song from you one day after I added this, I took the song I thought of. If you knew how much I „like" Sora, you can easily guess what kind of song this will be...
C U next time, please review! And PS, I'm going to use a Special Guest in one of the next chapters, and maybe a character from another Anime...
