netizens comment:
divine comedy! One of the first three songs I heard and impressed when I was young.
I was so happy when Fei Yuqing appeared. z2Everyone at z
is a powerful player, and everyone’s voice has a strong recognizability. Wearing headphones with your eyes closed, you can clearly hear everyone’s lyrics conversion.
The Hong Kong and Taiwan music scene has "Tomorrow Will Be Better", the mainland has "Let the World Full of Love", and the United States has "We Are the World". These are my best memories in the 1980s, and they filled me with a beautiful vision of the world in my youth.
