4U'S Performance at Club Lox Last Night [FULL VIDEO] We performed the live version of Control Room! Enjoy! xoxo.
The stage starts off dark as many people in the audience are screaming. The whole club vibe has pink and red lighting, Electro and pop music playing as the DJ spins records. Many colorful outfits are dancing on the lighting dance floor. Two girls with blonde hair. One is around her early 20's and the other is in her late 20's. They both are looking on stage as behind a white sheet are shadows of people slowing away. They look at each other. They both sit at the bar as one has one a gold dress with red lipstick. The other one, that's in her early 20's goes simple, but yet chic with a white top and leather jacket. " Can you believe this.. who are these bitches?" the young one said. " Shut up Lori! I'm ready to hear them. I heard they are hot.." she replies. Lori looks at the stage and rolls her eyes. " Bitches don't even have a record deal.. like, what the fuck? And they call their self artists. My ass. Stephanie, them girls are wacko.. Lashes are better than them and they are on television." Lori said. Stephanie then rolls her eyes at Lori. " I think they are sexy." The people behind the sheet stops. Everyone in the club stops and looks as the first performance of the 4U begins now. They perform their first single, " Control Room" Echos of a voices are heard as everyone in the club goes near the huge stage. " Are you ready.." A big powerful voice starts to sing acapella. " I got a place for you to go, baby take my hand and show you the way.. if it kills you to be with me, I hope you can handle me in this control room." The white sheets falls to the ground as no one is between it. The audience looks confused. One spotlight on stage is seen. From the back of the stage, comes walking someone with a slow pace. She walks sexy with black heels with gold crystals attached. She stops before she hits the lights. " I'm Danielle. I'm sassy, sexy and I'm here for the thrill. You know, my man treated me real bad. He will always abuse me.. but hey, I'm just to fucking sexy for a man to tell me what to do.. You know.." she continues to walk near the light. " I loved my man.. even thought I cheated on him.. but it was that kind of love that made me CRAZYYY!!" It echos. The crowd applause. She walks up to the light. The crowd roars. Danielle, looking flawless with her hair down, relaxed on her shoulders. A short red dress with the gold crystal heels. She poses very sexy as she looks over to the next spotlight that goes on stage. She looks angry. She looks out to the audience. Her light dims. " I just cant believe he did that to me. I loved that man with all my heart. My mother always use to say, if a man cant treat you right, he don't deserve him... Paul was my everything. I remember when we first met." Another person walks slowly up to the bright light on stage. " It was the moment I knew Paul was my husband. Even though Paul was 19 and I was sixteen. He always had a gun, locked away. But one day, I had ENOUGH! ENOUGH OF HIM NOT TREATING ME RIGHT, ENOUGH OF THE WOMAN! ENOUGH OF ALL THE LIES, THAT PAUL. MR PAUL.. TOLD ME!" She runs to the light, makeup messy all over her face. Eye liner drops from her blue Eyes. Bianca looks into the crowd with a black short dress on and red heels. Her red lipstick is coming off from. She rubs her face as she touches the falling tears. " Can you believe that I'm crying.. something he told me I'll never have to do.." She screams out loud as a super rumbling bass of drums are heard. Her light dims.
A woman, screaming and crying running from the back of the stage. She runs into the next spotlight. She runs, crying dramatically. She falls into the spotlight. Her heels comes off. She looks up, to the reveal of Aubrei. " That bitch killed my brother.. my brother was all I had. He was my escape.." The next spotlight shows Laci, looking fierce in a gold one shoulder dress with white creamed wedges. She looks at the other woman as all the spotlight are all on, stage. She looks, folding her arms. " Look at you woman, letting a man control you, taking you this far. A man, having power over you and your womanhood. You all have been destroyed. Just as pathetic as the men are.." They all stand up at once as the stage goes dark.
The crowd applause. Loud bass is heard as its rumbling, it's going deep into the drums. The drum sticks starts to beat on each other, creating a bass echo as the light starts to turn on slowly. All of the woman are apart, in a line where they were in the circle. Headsets are on their heads as handcuffs are behind them, attached to the black chair. They all look down as smoke surroads them. A one key piano starts to join in with the bass. Seconds later, they all come together, making an uptempo pop record that inpowers the bass out though the whole song, making it a bigger sound everytime the hook comes around in the stage. The sound of a prison bars, being locked up are mixed in with the sound.
The girls look up slowly to Danielle. " In a place where I feel trapped, my walls are the motivation that keeps me on track. Pretty little ones are not the guilty ones. But my pages from my notepad shows I'm the one who." All the girls, joining in, making a melody that soft and smooth, but fits the girls ranges perfectly."
" Isnt the girl I use to be. Until something changed my ways. It was heartbreak minutes to late. It changed my life. Forever inst the word I was going for, now I think I should have did it the right way. Now I'm locked up in this Control Room, with no escape to go."
Aubrei looks up as the bass lowers. The pain in her voice is heard as she looks deeply into the audience. " Cry me a river, and I'll be okay. I know what I do to be where I am today. I couldn't stand the pain, so I took it away. I was the girl who was innocent, until my kindness was taking for weakness." She ends her verse with a powerful end note, trying to get up from the chair as the other girls are abliding the hook. " Here I am, going crazy in my head. I couldn't believe I did that to the one I love. Now I'm in this control room, thinking of what I had. I could have, thought about, not ending us this way. Locked in going insane in this control room, where my love is gone out of my head. "
The bass builds up as the stage turns dark. The chairs are heard breaking, whistles in the bass are heard. The piano gets quiet as the ladies scream and heavy feets are heard on stage. All of the sudden, the powerful instrumental comes back in, but sounds more like a rock ballad as the woman are standing up with handcuffs broken and pieces of the chair is broken. Police officers sound in the back, looking at them, each one behind them. They stand up, powerful, with their head high as they sing the hook. " I dont feel alive in this control room. My heart is rough so I grab my tears. I cant believe I did that to the one I love. Now my world involves around, involves around, involves around me in this control room" Bianca walks up to the beginning of the stage, near the audience as wind blows her hair. " No, I'll go. This room is much to cold, in the middle of the night, one one beside me to hold. I can make my life whole again, even if you're not here. I could have thought twice before pulling a regret I never wanted to have." Laci walks up slowly near Bianca. " But myself wont admit, it was me who made the decision to leave you like this. Now I'm going into a place I'll never thought I'll be, in this control room, is now, where my heart beats." They both fall on the ground, crying. Now, all we hear is the soft drums. Aubrei and Danielle walks up to them. " Laaaaa. La La La La. La La La La La La" Danielle looks up and looks into the audience. " I should of known, my mother always told, meeeee." Aubrei follows. " Not to dive straight in, now I'm in this control room with no more hearts to kill." Aubrei blends back while belting out the notes, Danielle joins in at the right time before the bass goes smoothly along with Bianca and Laci soft vocals on the ground, adliding Aubrei last line. They all begin to walk back to their circles. The offices in all black walk up to the girls and handcuff them. They all look sad as they all finish one last part of the song as the piano fades out. " Here I am, in this control room, where my heart beats." The stage light fades out. The crowd roars.
