People love old songs always.
Because the old songs used to be meaningful.
Old songs often recall people's memory that happened in the past.
Sometimes I think the most attrative thing of old songs is not the sound,but the memories that are recalled by those songs.
I had no idea what English was when I listened to this song.
I don't know what the lyrics say, but it still impressive me.
I can't remember I have heard this two songs when I heard them this year.
I just know I heard them before, maybe I still in my mother's body at that time.Haha.
The lyrics are regarded as a type of poem,I agree with that.
In China,schools often organized their students to watch socialism movies.We call those movies as "Mainstream Movies".
Normally,those movies talked about the Anti-Japanese War(1937-1945).
Most of them introduced the cruelness of Japanese army done for China and Chinese.
This is the first mainstream movie I remember. It named Hands Up.It is a great movie that used the humorous presentation to express the Anti-Japanese War.
I belive that everyone would have their "top 10 movies" in their deep mind.I also have mine. One of the top 3 movies in my catalogue named The Message(2008).
I never believed that there would be a mainstream movies in my "top 10 movies" catalogue.But this one did, in 2008, when I first time watched it.
I heard that The Flowers of War, which is a maintream movie, failed to take part in Oscar in 2011. The jury thinks the story in the movie was ridiculous.
When I go abroad, I finally understand that,some emotions only can be understood by Chinese.We are not hating someone, but we all remember what happened in the past.
May not all of mainstream movies were talking about the truth of history, I know some of them might be exaggerate. However, I think our home country just want us to remember: the foreigners may not understand us,but as a Chinese,I have to understand my motherland.
I am a crazy Chinese ancient costume sitcoms fan.
Expecially the ancient costume sitcoms in Hong Kong television program.
Every sitcoms have some classical plot.
I will be reminded my childhood even when I heard the songs about that sitcoms.
The love stories in the past are typical pure.
They don't have any high technologies for their life, but they also have something they want. But they are not that complicated.
When the mp3s were not common,I even didn't have a walkman.The only thing I can hear everywhere,there is my mini radio.
I used to litsen to my mini radio to wait the "story time".
I called it "radio sitcoms".
Radio sitcoms are more vivid than book reading but gave people more imagenation than the television sitcoms.
But the biggest disadvantage is that radio sitcoms can't be translated.So the audiences group is not broad.Then radio sitcoms disppeared.
When the podcasts are popular, I even don't know if radio can alive for long time.
I still really hope that radio sitcoms can be revived some day.
I remember that I must watched TV after school when I was in
kindergarten and primary school. Because that was the time that Japanese
cartoons on show! I watched Hong Kong television channel,so there was
Cantonese dub in the Japanese cartoon.That was the way I learn
Cantonese~haha~
Actually,my very first education was given by Japanese cartoon.They
taught me to be a nice and kind person, then I could achieve my goal.
Japanese cartoons already develop to a new direction. There are thousands of adults would like to watch it.They have new story organization that is suitable to the adult.
They are my father's idol,his favourite band.
Then he inherits the love of them to me.
"There is the only one band alived in Hong Kong, that's Beyond".
I forget where did I hear about that,in fact, my childhood surounded by their songs.
They founded in 1983,disband in 1993 because of the death of the main singer.
But I think they are alive at the deep mind of Chinese people.
Never have a song touch me so much:
Today we left our body but not soul,
To welcome our brilliant life.
We should hold our freedom tightly in the hurricane.
The first post must to be this one!!
This is the TV sitcom in 1999.OMG~!It's over 10 years ago!!
However, it affects me in me rest of life.
It produced by a Hong Kong TV company named ATV.
I hardly watched Twilight and Vampire Diary because I dont think they are more interesting than this one.
I always cry for the last sentence:
I willing the God can be our witness,let you guide the future for me.
I think "My Date" is more "Chinese love style", so I am a fan of vampire, but not a fan of "Twilight" and "Vampire Diary".
