I like a song, often because of a certain lyric, but what is really moving is not the lyrics, but the stories about the lyrics in your life.
An inspirational old song of "Silent Upstream", through a faint melancholy melody, accompanied me through the rainy night of this weekend in the season of falling leaves.
"Silent Upstream" is the theme song of the movie "Drummer", sung by Zhang Guorong, included in the album "The Wind Continues to Blow" released in 1983. The simple and self-motivated lyrics in the song reveal the tenacious fighting spirit and give great support and encouragement to countless people who have faced setbacks and frustrations.
Zhang Ailing said: "A person will die three times in his life: the first time is brain death, which means that the body is dead; the second time is a funeral, which means dying in society; the third time is forgetting, no one in this world thinks of you anymore, that is, complete death." These words illustrate the value of life very well.
- "Some people are dead, but he is still alive." "Just like Zhang Guorong: from 2003 to 2021, eighteen years have passed, and every song that warms the heart and cold, and the light and shadow pictures that penetrate the soul are engraved in the bottom of everyone's heart. Happiness and unhappiness occupy his life, but he leaves happiness and warmth to others, and unhappiness to himself...
Zhang Guorong's classic songs are many, "The Wind Continues to Blow", "Monica", "Who Resonates", "Qiannu Ghost"... Etc. The song is permeated with desolation, loneliness and warmth, but also has a lingering melancholy, which makes people intoxicated, sinking, and overwhelmed...
In Hong Kong, there is a very inspirational saying called "even Zhang Guorong has to work hard for ten years". Zhang Guorong's life is already a magnificent generation! In the early struggle, he silently endured a lot of pain.
Listening to the song "Silent Upstream" can deeply appreciate how difficult it is to succeed! It's tough, but I don't bow my head and concede defeat – that's why I love the song "Silent Upstream".
-- "Heavenly Jealous Talent", Zhang Guorong, who died of depression for eighteen years, left many classic movies and heart-warming songs, and is still a "brother" living in the hearts of many fans.
