The greatest paradox of life is that the things that we think will pass away with the wind are often stubbornly left in our hearts. And those emotions that you think will never change, but always go with the wind. In the 162 days that "Listen to a Song and Say Love" with you, listen to Cao Fang's "Gone with the wind" to see what we have lost and what we have left behind.
Gone with the wind
Singer: Cao Fang
Lyrics/Music: Cao Fang
How many encounters are one in ten thousand
But it is doomed
How many separations there are when remembered
But there can be no doubt
Not needed
The freedom and stability after waking up is irredeemable
How many people are booming at the end
Or forget all
Facing the wind, ask yourself what makes sense
Burn once and you will grow old
Looking at you in the wind, go down calmly
When I lose all my memories
How much enthusiasm there is in the spring and autumn
Return to blandness
How much affection is lost after that
Suddenly I learned to cherish
I don't
How many people have a side of the fate
But it will always be remembered
Let me cherish all the memories
Da la da la da la

If the reason for recommending Gone with the Wind is purely because it sounds good, do you think that the reason for this recommendation is too perfunctory?
It is not to fool everyone, but the biggest charm of this song is that it is pleasant and good.
You don't need to hear every word in the lyrics, and you don't need to figure out the story behind the lyrics and the emotions that the musician Cao Fang wants to express. In just a few minutes, we don't even need to focus on the song, but can listen to the song while reading a book or teasing the pet.
In the musical world built by "Gone with the wind", Cao Fang's singing voice is just an introduction, she is not in a hurry to make you feel satisfied from the song immediately, but guides you to unconsciously assimilate by the soothing rhythm of the song and slowly integrate into its unique charm.
So, the real charm of the song comes from the imagination you gave the song.
When we hear Cao Fang sing "How many encounters are one in ten thousand / But they are destined / How many separations are unforgettable / But there can be no doubts", you will put yourself into this story, subconsciously thinking of many people who have passed through your world and the memories they bring you.
The greatest paradox of life is that the things that we think will pass away with the wind are often stubbornly left in our hearts. And those emotions that you think will never change, but always go with the wind.
Maybe the above sentiment is not the correct interpretation of the song, but it is the real feeling that "Gone with the wind" brought to me.
What about you? What do you have in mind?

On June 11, 2018, Cao Fang released his fifth solo album "3170", and "Gone with the Wind" recommended by this article is the second song included in the album.
The album is named "3170", which seems nonsensical, but has a deep meaning.
The official announcement reads: 3170 kilometers is the distance between Cao Fang's home from Xishuangbanna and his home in Beijing; 3170 hours, which is the time from recording to the completion of the album; 3170, is the natural growth trajectory of Cao Fang from a naïve little girl to a mature and independent woman.
It may be that personal bad taste is at work, for the official interpretation, I do not feel too deliberate and sensational, but I think this kind of concept replacement that can be carried out in a dignified manner is too cool.
In my mind, this is the joy of creation.
Whether it's musicians, literati or other artists, they can always mix some bootlegs in their work. It's just that some people show more direct means, while some people do it more euphemistically. But whether it is direct or euphemistic, as long as someone can read these private goods, they feel that they are indeed a genius, and you who can read the genius are naturally worth looking at differently.
unbelief? Then let's make the most superficial analogy.
When others added you as a WeChat friend and found that your WeChat nickname was actually "9527", he smiled and replied , "I am also a star master fan" .
At this moment, don't you think that this is the same person?

It's time to talk about Cao Fang, for this singer, familiar people are very familiar, and unfamiliar people are a big question mark in their hearts.
Cao Fang's experience is somewhat similar to That of Liu Ruoying. Milk Tea was originally Chen Sheng's assistant and then debuted as an actor and singer. Cao Fang also entered the entertainment industry as an assistant, and in 2002, she came to Beijing alone to become the recording assistant of Xiao Ke, a famous musician in the mainland.
Like Rene Liu, sooner or later the gold will shine. A year later, Cao Fang became a signed singer of "Titanium Friends Culture" where Xiao Ke was the music director, and released his first original album "Black Perfume" in September of this year.
In 2003, the Chinese music circle entered a strange circle: Jay Chou became the king of heaven with the album "Ye Huimei", which is certainly gratifying. But his success has also caused a large number of quick followers, and the blind RB and HIP-HOP in the market is inevitably a little boring.
Therefore, Cao Fang's xiaoxin emerged in this piece of "RB and HIP-HOP", and "Black Perfume" was also rated as the top ten records of the year in the mainland by the "Beijing News".
Two years later, in December 2005, Cao Fang released his second original album "Meet Me".
This time, she once again took over the songwriting of all the songs on the album, and served as a music producer for the first time, giving fans an original "Cao's Little Fresh".
In the end, the album set a sales record for "niche singers" and won the "Mainland Best Record of the Year" award and the "Mainland Top Ten Golden Songs of the Year" award at the "Music Radio China TOP Chart" award ceremony.

In 2007, Cao Fang had a new idea for his own musical path.
After the contract with Titanium Friends Culture ended, she set up her own portal to set up the "Taipan Music Studio", and was therefore called the class leader by her favorite fans.
At this time, Cao Fang's music is more self-contained, and gradually finds a balance between commercialization and personal voice.
After releasing the "Farthest Than the Sky" EP in 2007, she released her third original album "Hum a Song and Wait for sunset" in 2009, and with this album, she won the "Top Ten Chinese Records of the Year 2009" and "Best Folk Artist".
In the following years, Cao Fang returned to life, looking for inspiration in travel and solitude, and the pace of her creation gradually slowed down.
It was not until October 26, 2015, that Cao Fang released his fourth original album " Wanderlust . It was three years later that her fifth album, 3170, came.
Although the frequency of filming is getting slower and slower, the quality of the music is getting higher and higher. Now coincides with Cao Fang's launch of the "2019 Light Travel National Tour", June 12 Zhengzhou Station and June 15 Beijing Station will be the last two stops of this tour, friends, do not miss yo!

Finally, as usual, gossip and small complaints.
Many people did not pay attention to the fact that when Cao Fang launched his first personal original album "Black Perfume", it was still called "Cao Fang".
I have also mentioned many times before that I am afraid that the singer will change her name at will, but this time "Cao Fang" becomes "Cao Fang", the official reason is that she belongs to the self-redemption after lying down the gun.
Cao Fang's real name is Cao Fang, but when "Black Perfume" was released in 2003, the team that Xiao Ke had just formed was inexperienced and did not notice that the printing house had mistakenly printed the name of the record cover and lyric book as "Cao Fang".
It is said that when this error was discovered, the record cover and lyrics were already printed in large quantities, and considering the cost problem, the record company would be wrong and let Cao Fang debut under the stage name of "Cao Fang".
Of course, all this is said. After so many years, no one can say for sure whether this is the correct answer.
All we know is that from the 2005 album Meet Me, all of the former recording assistant's albums and EP profiles have returned to their real name "Cao Fang".
Before her, there was "Faye Wong became Wang Jingwen and then became Faye Wong"; after her, there was a more powerful "Wu Kequn changed Wu Kequn and then changed Wu Kequn and then changed back to Wu Kequn"
Singers in the Chinese music scene are so fond of tossing.
<h1>Tomorrow's notice</h1>
