"The third song I'm bringing to you today is called 'Hope,' wishing everyone a Happy New Year."
(Looking forward to Zhou Shen)
Hearing what Wen He said after taking the stage, everyone felt reassured.
Just as they expected, it was a song wishing everyone a Happy New Year.
If that's the case, then we shouldn't need tissues.
After all, these kinds of songs are usually upbeat.
Wen He can't possibly sing New Year's greetings in a depressing way, can she?
You shouldn't do something like that...
Before the concert officially started, everyone was still on high alert.
This is Wen He; even a healing song can be turned into a depressing one.
"A red kite, overlooking the map~"
"Drifted too far, where to land?"
"Those who travel far are like blurry images seen through a telescope."
"Using the silhouette to amplify loneliness~"
"You and I are used to coming and going like frequent travelers."
"The letter sent to the sky failed to receive a timely reply."
"Wait a little longer and then return to base, just like before..."
When the song started, everyone present was stunned.
How could a New Year's greeting song be approached from this angle?!
Isn't this broken?
It's important to understand that the ways we usually celebrate the New Year are all about expressing positive emotions like joy and happiness.
However, the song that is now reaching everyone's ears...
Yet it is like a clear stream.
It broke the conventional pattern.
It did not choose the common cheerful melody and lively lyrics.
Instead, they took a different approach, approaching the issue from a completely different perspective.
Among the many ways to celebrate the New Year, if one had to pick one that stands out from the crowd…
It was probably a situation filled with sadness and helplessness.
This often happens to children who have grown into adults.
—In order to make a living, they had to leave their hometowns and go to other places to work hard.
—As for the elderly parents at home, they can only silently hope that they can reunite with their children during the Spring Festival every year.
These children are like kites in the wind.
It keeps flying towards the high sky.
At first, the parents could stand at the door of their house and look up at their children's figures floating in the air.
As time goes by, the children fly higher and farther.
And the parents are gradually getting old.
Their vision began to blur.
I can no longer see the children in the distance as clearly as I used to.
So, they could only painstakingly search for that faint, indistinct little shadow in the vast sky with the help of a "telescope"...
"We'll always go around in circles~ around in circles~"
"Even after traveling thousands of miles, I still look towards my homecoming."
"Riding the wind, longing blows, drifting through the night sky~"
"I'll catch a shooting star as a gift, wishing you happiness~~"
at first……
They are still thinking.
Why is this song called "Hope"?
What are you looking at?
Only then did they understand the song's title.
The wandering traveler gazes towards the road home.
The family members looked at the open gate.
Whether or not they went home.
Our hearts are already intertwined.
Going around and around...
Their eyes gradually reddened.
Based on Wen He's previous concert schedule, the first two songs should be depressing, and the third song should be healing.
But today they did the opposite, and the first two songs really satisfied them.
To their utter surprise, the third song, which was supposed to be a New Year's celebration, turned out to be a huge surprise for them.
Please, Wen He... This is the knife used for tonics... People who have worked in Beijing and haven't returned home can't hold back their tears when they hear this...
I haven't been home for two years. I'm currently in the prime of my career and can't get away at all. Although my parents always say, "It's okay if you're not coming back this year. It's good to work hard outside. Don't overwork yourself. Wear more clothes and don't order takeout too often; it's not clean. Come back whenever you have time."
Hearing this song on Lunar New Year's Eve really brought me to tears... I also really want to go home... I want to eat my mom's pork dumplings...
If it weren't for the pressures of life, who would willingly leave their hometown alone? The kite flyers are longing for us, and the kites are looking down on them from high above. Although we are far, far apart, our hearts are forever intertwined...
Try to visit your elderly parents more often. As you get older, time flies by, and every visit is one less time you can spend with them.
The audience members at the scene had already cried their eyes out, their eyes as red as ripe cherries.
People who leave their hometowns have never been a minority.
Otherwise, why would there be such a frantic rush to buy tickets during the Spring Festival travel rush every year?
Behind each train ticket lies more than just the longing to return home.
It also reflects a deep longing and yearning for one's hometown.
But...
Reality is always cruel.
Very few people are able to stay in their hometown to seek development.
Most young people, pressured by life and yearning for the future, have no choice but to leave their familiar land and venture far away to make a living.
Despite their deep reluctance, the parents still hoped that their child could step out of their comfort zone and bravely venture out into the world.
When your workplace is thousands of miles away from your hometown.
Going home has become an unattainable luxury.
In today's highly competitive and involution-driven social environment.
People spin like tops every day, rarely having a chance to catch their breath.
For many people, rest and holidays are simply a luxury that is out of reach.
The only relatively long holiday left is probably the Spring Festival.
even so……
A considerable number of people still cannot stop their hurried pace even during important holidays like the Lunar New Year.
They did so either because of heavy workloads or to earn more income to improve their family's living conditions.
They can only choose to continue their busy lives during times of family reunion, bearing the loneliness and homesickness alone.
"The thread in my hand, winding and winding~ winding and winding~"
"After thousands of days and nights of wandering, I still yearn for my way home."
"The swallows' migration route back to their nests involves countless participants."
"Let's get ready to celebrate when the fireworks illuminate the night sky!"
"The mind has a place to dwell..."
Wen He's heavenly voice seems to connect the hearts of every listener with those of their parents back home.
The singing voice is like a warm and resilient bond.
It transcends the distance of time and space.
This moment allowed family affection to be conveyed and resonate in the most sincere way.
Even if the two sides are separated by thousands of miles.
Wen He is still using his methods to allow them to have brief moments together.
He opened his mouth softly, and his gentle singing voice flowed in like a stream...
