Lyrics:
Today I watched the snow drifting by in the cold night, drifting far away with a chilled heart.
Chasing in the wind and rain and unable to distinguish the traces in the fog, the sky is vast and the sea is vast for you and me.
Can it change (who is not changing), how many times have I faced cold looks and ridicule.
I have never given up on my ideals, and I feel like I have lost something for a moment.
Unknowingly, it has faded, and I love in my heart (Who understands me).
Forgive me for my unruly and indulgent love of freedom in this life, but I am also afraid that one day I will fall.
Anyone can abandon their ideals, even if they are afraid that one day it will be just you and me.
Today I watched the snow drifting by in the cold night, drifting far away with a chilled heart.
Chasing in the wind and rain, you and I can’t be distinguished in the fog, the sky is vast and the sea is vast.
But it will change (who is not changing), forgive me for my unruly indulgence and love of freedom in this life.
I am also afraid that I will fall one day, and anyone can abandon their ideals.
How can I be afraid that one day you will be the only one who attacks me? I will still be free and sing my songs forever.
Traveling thousands of miles, forgive me for my uninhibited indulgence and love of freedom in this life.
I am also afraid that I will fall down one day, and anyone can abandon their ideals.
How can I be afraid that one day it will be just you and me? Anyone can abandon their ideals.
How can I be afraid that one day you will be the only one to attack me? Forgive me for my unruly, indulgent love of freedom in this life.
I am also afraid that I will fall one day, and anyone can abandon their ideals.
How can I be afraid that one day you will be the only one who attacks me?
Extended information:
"Broad Sea and Sky" has all the characteristics of pop rock, and is full of fighting spirit. It is the result of the surging passion of youth amplified by the mixer and effects. The influence of this song is not only on karaoke and karaoke shows, but also on people's hearts.
What this song brings to people is a positive attitude towards life, the belief of adhering to one's ideals and never giving up. The bitterness in the song, the freedom in the song, the perseverance in the song, and the majestic power in the song have inspired an entire generation.
"Boundless Sea and Sky" is one of the most outstanding works in Beyond's music career. It awakened the awareness of the main theme in the Hong Kong music scene and played a kind of music that can arouse the public's excitement. It's a pity that this work that marked Beyond's true maturity has become Wong Ka-kui's swan song, and this cruel reality echoes the tragic sense of fate in "Broader Seas and Sky" to a certain extent.
"Broader Sea and Sky" is the pinnacle of the popularity of Cantonese songs throughout China. The song is full of inspirational and expresses the open-minded feelings of pursuing freedom with "broad seas and sky".
From a musical perspective, Beyond has their flaws. For example, after joining Xinyibao Records, their exploration of music actually went backwards instead of advancing, and even gradually imprinted traces of the mainstream industrial model. In terms of music technology, at the stage of releasing "Glory Days", "Earth" and "Really Love You", by the standards of an excellent rock band, Beyond is actually more like an ordinary electroacoustic band. .
