Jay Chou fulfils his promise with his best partner
Talking about the hottest person in the Chinese pop industry, Jay Chou's name absolutely cannot be forgotten. He and Vincent Fang, this golden partnership, have brought many classic songs to us. And among this year's many entrants, the work of this golden partnership has been listed.
Earlier in October last year, Jay Chou expressed clearly that he would write and sing a song for the Beijing Olympics, he invited everyone from around the world to submit lyrics, if there wasn't any suitable lyrics then Vincent Fang would write it. And to the writing of this song Jay Chou paid particularly more attention. According to revealing from earlier interviews with Jay Chou, this song is the first song he wrote in 2008, no matter the motivation for writing the song or the direction of the writing, to him it has a special meaning, that's why he sees it as especially more important. The style of the song is different from his former albums, the melody rolls onto the tongue, hopefully everyone can understand it when listening to it.
Today, the reporters saw a piece of work named "A Long Journey" submitted by two people. "A long journey, countless nights, waiting for a clear moon, on the border of dreams, the wind blows ceaselessly, never feeling tired, the East are worthy, who is number one, let us pursue perfection......" Even though we didn't get to hear it, but the calm and powerful lyrics make the reporters really look forward to this piece. It is different from the old works of the two, the lyrics to this song seem to be simple and calm but it is still full of the power of dreams and hope.
According to the introduction from the staff, this piece was submitted via the web at 10 yesterday night. And the lucky staff member that got to hear it first used the words "a mix of West and East, very fun" to describe the first feelings he had after hearing it.
