英國達人秀：Bars and Melody 錯失英國獨立電視台選秀節目冠軍寶座
Jun 07, 2014 21:37
威爾斯（Welsh）饒舌男孩Leondre Devries昨晚於英國達人秀的傑出表現擄獲了英國各地粉絲的心。
儘管輸給了男孩團體
Collabro，這位來自塔爾博特港（Port Talbot）的13歲學生和他的搭檔15歲的Charlie Lenehan，仍在一致好評中獲得第三名。
主審Simon Cowell甚至告訴他們：「你們是我所見過最討喜最可愛的孩子，我希望我的兒子Eric長大後會像你們一樣。」
在觀眾投票後主持人Ant與Dec宣布他們得到第三名時，Leondre難掩落寞但仍保持鎮定地感謝支持他們的朋友。
「能在此比賽一直是很榮幸的事，能走到這一步已經相當不容易，」他說，
「非常感謝大家。你們改變了我的人生。」
他將自己投身於音樂以走出學校霸凌陰霾的故事已融化了全國觀眾的心。
最初讓他們在達人秀贏得一席之地的試唱曲獲得了評審們高度讚賞並起立鼓掌致敬，而這段表演在YouTube至今已獲得29萬次的點閱率。
評審David Walliams說：「你們今晚幹得真好。這首歌很好聽，我很高興你們今晚演唱這首。」
「以今晚的表演張力看來，我覺得冠軍可能就在眼前。」
Aleesha Dixon：「我幾乎要燃燒了。我真的超愛你們，你們唱得太棒了。我愛你們。我同意David的評論，你們可以贏得冠軍。」
Amanda Holden也附和。
她說：「你們兩位都很有才華，你們的爸媽一定感到很驕傲。」
「你們擁有相當可愛的特質，低調的自信但不傲慢。非常討喜。」
而最高的讚譽來自主審 Simon Cowell。
他說：「這完全是一場傑出的表演。傑出的原因在於它是發自內心的。」
「你們所唱的每一句都是真心誠意。你們是我所見過最討喜最可愛的孩子，我希望我的兒子Eric長大後會像你們一樣。」
在表演前Leondre四十歲的媽媽Victoria Lee曾表示，無論誰贏了比賽，Leondre與來自布里斯托（Bristol）的Charlie都會感到開心。
她說：「從他非常非常年輕時Leondre就一直有表演慾。」
「這是他一直以來想要追求的。他酷愛音樂，他所有的家人都愛音樂。」
她說，圍繞於他身旁的光環已經彷彿奇蹟。男孩們甚至受Ellen DeGeneres邀請至美國參加她的節目。
但她也表示，這些經驗並未改變他們的初衷，當他們毫不懈怠地排練今晚的決賽時依然沒有荒廢課業。
她說：「我們都希望他們能贏得勝利，但他們已經是勝利者了。作為父母，我們非常自豪。」
Britain's Got Talent: Bars and Melody miss out on ITV talent show crown
By Emma Sisk
Young Welsh rapper Leondre Devries won the hearts of fans across the UK last night with a brilliant performance on Britain’s Got Talent.
Despite missing out on winning the ITV talent show to boyband Collabro, the Port Talbot 13-year-old schoolboy and partner Charlie Lenehan, 15, earned rave reviews in coming third.
Head judge Simon Cowell even told them: “You are just the nicest sweetest kids I’ve ever met and I hope my son Eric turns out like you.”
Young Leondre was clearly disappointed after hosts Ant and Dec revealed they had finished in third place after the public vote but kept his composure to thank everyone who had voted for them.
“It has been such an honour, even to get this far has been amazing,” he said.
“Thank you so much to everyone. You’ve just changed our lives.
His story, of immersing himself in music a way of escaping from the bullies who tormented him at school, had melted viewers across the country.
The judges had given the boys rave reviews and a standing ovation after their performance of the audition song that initially won them a place in the talent show and has since been viewed 29 million times on YouTube.
Judge David Walliams said: “Well boys you smashed it tonight. It’s a beautiful song. I’m so glad you sang it tonight.
“I think on the strength of tonight’s performance we could be looking at the winners.”
Aleesha Dixon added: “I could burst. I just love you guys. Your vocals are so good. I just love you. I agree with David, you could win this show.”
Their words were echoed by Amanda Holden.
She said: “You are both so talented as people, your mum and dad must be so proud.
“You’ve got such lovely personalities. You’ve got that quiet confidence but its not arrogance. Its so endearing.”
And the highest praise of all came from head judge Simon Cowell.
He said: It was just a great performance. the reason it was so great was because it was from the heart.
“You meant everything you sang. You are just the nicest sweetest kids I’ve ever met and I hope my son Eric turns out like you.”
Before the show, Leondre’s mum Victoria Lee, 40, had said Leondre and Charlie, who lives in Bristol, would be delighted for whoever won the show.
She said: “Ever since he was very, very young Leondre has wanted to perform.
“It was always something he wanted to pursue. He loves music. All his family love music.”
She said the adulation that had surrounded him had been fantastic. The boys were even invited to the US by Ellen DeGeneres to appear on her show.
But she said the experience has not changed either of the boys, who are still keeping up with school work as they rehearse relentlessly ahead of tonight’s final.
She said: “We all hope that they will win but they are winners no matter what. As parents we are extremely proud of them. ”
Bars & Melody已經被Simon Cowell簽下，並在徵求12至19歲之間的少年加入拍攝他們的首支音樂錄影帶
