Among various music genres, unique folk songs are the most popular. The love in love songs comes and goes but I have never experienced it. The heart-wrenching in rock is too harsh. The RAP that young people like is even more difficult to accept. The light singing of folk songs sings about youth, love and ideals. Singing about life makes people recall, let people imagine, let people feel the vicissitudes and beauty of life, and let people understand the value and meaning of life.
In 2017, many good and meaningful ballads appeared, which were very popular and loved by many people.

"In the World" became popular at the end of 2017. The lyrics are very melancholy, pessimistic, and full of gray colors. No one can compete with heaven and earth, and no one's life in this world is like a purgatory. . . Full of despair and resentment towards life, I no longer have the courage to struggle. Although life is not easy, everyone will experience failures and setbacks, and everyone will suffer rumors, but never lose confidence and courage in life. No matter when and where, you must fight against fate to the end, even if your head is broken and your body is broken to pieces.

"Old Time" by Xia Xiaohu is a song that makes people drunk after listening to it. I have a story, do you have wine? . .

Li Zongsheng's "The Hills" has become a masterpiece. However, there is someone who dares to challenge the altar. He is Gao Xiaosong, the fat man whose appearance is inversely proportional to his talent. Yang Zongwei's thick voice sings the helplessness of middle-aged people at the passage of time, the regret for the wasted life, the letting go and persistence of the present, and the confusion and clarity of the future. There will be many hills to climb in life, and there are many hills that cannot be climbed. There is no need to look back for those that have been crossed, and there is no need to look up for those that cannot be climbed. Taking every step well is the best journey.

A prose poem written by my father
Pu Shu’s "The Year of Innocence" often accompanies me to sleep recently. We were all young people chasing the wind, we were all fluttering in white clothes, we were all high-spirited. But when we walk around the world, the dust taints our once pure hearts, fame and fortune buries the ideals we once wanted to fly, and survival makes us forget how to live. We are no longer simple, no longer brave, no longer desperate. All we can remember is the innocent face that is gradually forgotten, and the clear eyes that are gradually extinguished. The strong wind is blowing, and we are drifting in the wind. Over the years, we can only choke silently in the wind, recalling those good times that will never come again.
I love folk songs. I love the youth, past, dreams, questioning, present and future in folk songs. I love the simplicity and beauty of folk songs.
