In addition to family affection and love, there is another emotion in this world that people can go to the soup for fire, that is, comradeship!
The camaraderie of carrying a gun together, at any time you can safely hand over your back to the other party, is an emotion that people who have not been soldiers have not understood in their lives.
The camaraderie is forged in life and death, blood and fire, bitterness and joy, and is infinitely missed by many people with military experience.
Moreover, comradeship is like wine, the longer the time, the more you leave the army, the more mellow, more fragrant, the more precious.
On October 16, a veteran in Hunan Satellite TV's national interactive singing program "Singing Caravan" sang a song "Sea and Sky" to remember the troops and comrades-in-arms.
During the singing process, the audience below was fascinated, and many people sang along.
When I heard this familiar melody, it also evoked many memories of my youth.
"Sea and Sky"
Today I watched the snow drift by in the cold night
Drift away with a cooled heart
Chasing in the wind and rain The fog is indistinguishable
The sky and the sea are wide for you and me
Can change (who is not changing)
How many times have you met with cold eyes and ridicule
I have never given up on the ideals in my heart
A moment of trance, the feeling of loss
Unconsciously, it has faded
Love in The Heart (Who Understands Me)
Forgive me for loving freedom uninhibitedly in this life
I am also afraid that one day I will fall
Turning your back on ideals can be done by anyone
Even if one day only you and I are with me
When I was in junior high school, my brother came home one day with several tapes, one of which was Beyond's album, which included the song "Sea and Sky".
As soon as I heard the song, I liked its melody, there was no single loop at that time, in order to learn this song, I could only listen to it and then rewind, and listen to it over and over again.
Because of this song, I fell in love with beyond and knew the thing that broke the hearts of all fans - the soul of the band, Huang Jiaju, died in 93.
As one of the most outstanding works in Beyond's musical career, "Sea wide sky" has become the masterpiece of jiaju, which can't help but be stifling, but this inspirational song awakens the main melody consciousness of the Hong Kong music scene.
In 1993, "Sea and Sky" won the 16th Hong Kong Top 10 Chinese Golden Melody Award and the "My Favorite Songwriting Award" in the pop charts.
In 2010, the song was selected for the "30 Songs in 30 Years" of the Chinese Golden Melody Awards 30 Years Classics.
After the college entrance examination, I went to Guangdong to go to university. In college, I discovered how popular this song is, whether it is a campus singing competition or some daily activities, you can hear this song.
After work, there are often many people in KTV who will point out this song, no matter whether the singing is good or not, they will roar out their helplessness and plant ideals for their hearts.
"Sea wide sky", even if it is only a Cantonese song, and the time has passed decades, separated by several generations, but every time you hear it, you can feel the power contained in the song, the spirit of self-encouragement, the persistence of chasing ideals and the spirit of not giving up.
Today, the song has transcended language and music to become a belief, a belief and a force.
In the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake, Liu Dehua filled in the lyrics of the Chinese version of "Sea and Sky", taking the song titled "Commitment", and gathered stars from both sides of the strait and three places to sing together to cheer up Wenchuan.
At the Beijing Olympic Games in the same year, when Liu Xiang retired due to injury and the people of the whole country were surprised and disappointed, the sound of "Sea and Sky" sounded in the sports field, encouraging everyone not to give up the ideal in their hearts.
In 2013 and 2015, when guangzhou Evergrande football team won the AFC Champions League championship twice, it was "Sea and Sky" that sang in the Tianhe Stadium.
The positive attitude to life and the belief of never giving up conveyed in this song are very much in line with our spirit Chinese of hard work, not afraid of hardship, and brave struggle, and will continue to inspire the younger generation to take responsibility and thrive.
