Songs and Me

This is a popular song that has been popular for a long time. In the 1990s, it became popular in the entire Chinese music circle. After being sung by Andy Lau's unique Liu style, it has a unique flavor. It can be said that Andy created "Forgetting Water", and at the same time "Forgetting Water" also helped Andy.

So much so that it is often sung in KTV for many years and even now. The affectionate song itself expresses the helplessness and determination to forget the pain caused by love.

The first time I heard this song was in the era when VCDs were played. The scene on TV at that time was still a young Andy Lau singing in a grand concert. At that time, he was still young. I just feel that this uncle is dressed in such strange clothes, and the dancers are also wearing very little, which makes it embarrassing to look at him. I once thought that only bad boys would sing such songs (probably because I was influenced by "Stupid Kid" before)

Then, in the years when I was growing up, I would continue to hear this song more or less. song. "The flowers are the same every year, but the people are different every year." After many years, I realized that my mood was different when I heard this song.

The most impressive time I heard this song was when I graduated from college. On the last night of graduation, in layman’s terms, boys and girls couldn’t bear the loneliness and started to go out to play. It was time to confess. Confessions should be crazy and try to make up for their respective regrets.

Naturally, there is a story about a boy who has been pursuing a girl for 2 years but still has no results. That night, after dinner, everyone sat on the floor and started playing games. I can’t remember what the game was, but what I can clearly remember is that the boys were asked to sing as punishment, so the boys sang "Forgetting Love Water"

The girl the boy liked was present, and we all understood it tacitly. . Quietly on the side, ready to listen, the boy searched the lyrics on his mobile phone and sang:

"When I was young, I loved chasing dreams\I just wanted to fly forward\Traveling through thousands of mountains and rivers\I walked all the way and couldn't go back. "

We fell to our knees completely at the first sentence. The vicissitudes of his voice and the sad lyrics seemed to be telling his own pursuit of girls. He traveled all the way through mountains and rivers, persisting and persisting. "Shameless". We all know that when a boy chases a girl for 2 years, he not only chases her, but also pursues her hard.

"Suddenly, when I look back, the love is far away, and I can't help but to be in the horizon, I understand love, hate, and hatred. The most hurtful thing is regret."

Maybe this love has never been close to him. After all, he was alone in his unrequited love, but such feelings still hurt. Only the new people laugh, who hears the old people crying? It is indeed painful for people who break up and need love water, but how can it not be painful for people who have been in unrequited love for two years? He has never tasted the laughter of a newcomer. He has sacrificed a lot silently. Maybe he will be liberated after graduation. The day of graduation is when he drinks the water of his own love.

"Give me a glass of love-free water\and give me a night without tears"

This lyric was catchy when I was young. I feel that the climax of every song is the easiest to remember. Live. Maybe it's because most of the lyrics of each song are similar to the song title, and they belong to the climax part, so the emotions are easy to express.

But now, I don’t like the climax of this song so much. Because the foreshadowing lyrics are good enough to make people feel heartbroken, but in a sad atmosphere, people often speak in low voices and twitching, only anger is heartbreaking. So, I fell in love with the part before the climax of this song.

It's as if a person who has been hurt by love is telling you his story quietly, and you just need to listen.

Of course, this boy had this feeling when he finished singing the song. Not one of the dozen or so people sitting on the floor spoke, as if they all understood his story, his feelings, and felt sorry for him. But that's how feelings are, no one is right or wrong. Maybe you like her, but she doesn't like you. If you are still together even if you don't like each other, it will be harmful to both parties.

I was afraid that I would be infected by sadness, so I found an opportunity to break the silence. In fact, I just discovered now that maybe the most cowardly people like to tell jokes the most, because this can make others laugh first. I wouldn't be so sad.

Emotions are like this, there are joys and sorrows. I have tasted the sweetness and shed tears. Fortunately, songs sing the joys, sorrows, and joys in our hearts. This is probably why we like songs, whether they remember feelings or forget feelings. May all feelings be sincere and sincere, and envy others.

I also hope you like this song of forgetfulness
