Founded in 1983, the band Beyond quickly grew from an underground band in Hong Kong to a powerful band with fans all over the Taiwan Straits, when Wong Ka Ju took a broken guitar and single-handedly founded the Beyond band, but he became a mark of that era and remained forever at the age of 31. Someone asked, do you know Cantonese? No, but ask, will you sing about the glory days? Yes.
So Wong Ka Ju as a soul of the band, his creation opened up the entire Hong Kong original era, his creative themes are very wide, involving current politics and society, war and peace, freedom and resistance, which is the theme of his songs. It is very regrettable that Huang Jiaju's unexpected departure in 1993 due to an unexpected death was indeed a huge loss for the Chinese music scene.
Some people say that there is no rock in Hong Kong, only beyond, and not every voice is called Wong Ka Ju. The sea and sky are the proud representatives of China. To speak of influence, they have guided the direction of Hong Kong music.
In 1997, Hong Kong returned to the motherland, and be
Yond's no longer hesitates, in the 2008 Olympic Games, Liu Xiang fell and withdrew, putting the sea and sky of beyond, the 5.12 Wenchuan earthquake, Andy Lau refilled the words with the sea and sky of beyond, the president of South Africa died in 2013, and South Africa sounded the glorious years.
This year marks the 30th anniversary of Huang Jiaju's death. However, there is also a saying that Huang Jiaju did not die, but lived in seclusion in Japan. After so many years, perhaps people still have not been able to accept Huang Jiaju's departure,
Or maybe he didn't leave at all, but remained in people's memories forever. Huang Jiaju spent 31 years chasing the sea and sky of rock music, but fell on the earth of Japan.
In that materialistic life, we all want to live according to the will of our parents, but how many people will always stick to their ideals, and how many people live according to their hearts? Huang Jiaju has passed away. But the glory days are still on earth.
When South Africa's founding father Mandela heard of the glorious years of his creation, he burst into tears. Chow Yun-fat once said that after him, there are no more musicians in Hong Kong, he is a symbol of the times.
I often hear people on the Internet say that anyone can evaluate Huang Jiaju, but Anita Mui does not have this qualification, why,
Because Anita Mui liked grasshoppers at that time, Anita Mui not only loved them, but also asked her friends to take more care of grasshoppers, you know. At that time, Anita Mui had a pivotal position in Hong Kong and Taiwan, resulting in the grasshopper band suppressing others for six consecutive years, although the number of award-winning songs of Beyond at that time steadily crushed Grasshopper, but did not expect to win only one silver award at the award ceremony, and the songs that won the Top Ten Chinese Golden Melody Awards, most of the songs came from covers.
In 1990, the glorious years that consumed Huang Jiaju's countless efforts were born, but they were not happy at all, because this song that was enough to be a god finally won a silver award. Therefore, Huang Jiaju angrily said that sentence at the award ceremony, there is no music scene in Hong Kong, only the entertainment industry.
Forced Huang Jiaju had to leave Hong Kong and go to Japan to develop, which at that time was protected and original, and later accidentally fell off a three-meter-high stage in a Japanese game show and unfortunately died
