Is that a current song over there or would it be what we call a classic? It strikes me how so much music in the world never finds its way to our ears here.

Hi Nik, this is a little known song here. It was part of the eighties bundle of locally produced works that originated from mostly teens still in secondary school or junior colleges. I like the innocence in it. @JustNik

@novembermoon knowing where it lies within the scheme of things is as interesting as hearing it. Thank you! 🙂

Very beautiful song 😊
It puzzles me how many Chinese songs (according to those you have posted here) talk about looking at the past wistfully, whilst the current mentality in many Chinese people (I mean ethnically Chinese) is quite practical, and they want to look ahead, not to the past.

@Cierzo those songs I post are 95% melancholic ones. But I guess only 5% of the people are introverted and maybe 0.5% hermitish like me. 😝 The Chinese people on the whole are pragmatic, you're right.

@novembermoon Those 5% must be those who compose and enjoy them 😊
