Cantopop Legend Sam Hui Hosts Concert to Support Unemployed Workers in Music Industry
On Sunday #Apr12, Sam Hui, a pioneer in Cantopop, organised an online concert to raise money for former employees of Tom Lee Music's service department, which had been disbanded since March due to the coronavirus pandemic.
This concert has raised criticism in society as Chief Executive Carrie Lam posted a photo of her watching the concert with her officials during a government meeting. This caused some voices in the society to call for a boycott on the online concert.
Despite the negative response brought about by Carrie Lam, Sam Hui's live-stream concern had attracted over 160 thousand people near the end of the event. After saying, "let others say whatever they like", a lyric from a popular song performed by Leslie Cheung and Hui titled "Silence Is Golden" (沉默是金), the concert ended with Hui waving his hand and leaving the venue.
Sam Hui is highly regarded as an icon of Hong Kong culture and Cantopop. One of his signature song "Iron Towers that Reach the Skies" (鐵塔凌雲)relessed in 1972 describes a longing for home (Hong Kong) in foreign countries. His other songs like "The Private Eyes" (半斤八兩)also accurately described grassroot lives in Hong Kong in the 1970s.
Hui's contribution to Hong Kong culture and Cantonese pop music precisely reminds people of the need to propagate and develop local culture.

Hong Kong Lyricist Albert Leung: "Even a firefly can light up the sky"
Hong Kong lyricist Albert Leung not only showed his support for the anti-ELAB movement publicly, but he also created movement-related songs like “City of Sadness”. His name was then censored by the Chinese Communist Party government and his works were marked as “by anonymous” in China.
In an interview with RTHK's The Screening Room, Leung reiterated that he did nothing wrong by fighting for freedom. In this regard, “being named anonymous is some sort of an honour”. He expected that he will have less work after he expressed his stance, but it was more important to listen to your conscience.
"I don't think darkness can overcome the light. Even a firefly can light up the sky," Leung said.

17 Years Since the Passing of Hong Kong Superstar #AnitaMui: "Losing my career path is fine. The road to democracy is the most important"
Seventeen years ago, Hong Kong singer, actress and popular icon Anita Mui passed away on December 30, 2003 at the age of 40. For her righteousness and valiance, she is forever a superstar in Hongkongers' hearts.
Mui voiced support for the pro-democracy movement in China as early as in May 1989, before the June 4th Tiananmen Massacre took place. In Hong Kong, Mui participated in rallies and protests, despite her busy showbiz schedule. She also lent her voice to the pro-democracy song "For Freedom" (1989).
Mui is always remembered for her persistence on justice and outcry for the Chinese Communist Party government's suppression of pro-democracy movement.
It was also reported that Mui quit the leading role in Center Stage (1990), a work by renowned Hong Kong director Stanley Kwan, because she refused to go to China for shooting.
When asked in 1990 if she was worried about the impact of her outspokenness on her career, Mui said, "Losing my career path is fine. The road to democracy is the most important."

Local Musicians Encourage Hongkongers to Hang On
The Hong Kong Commercial Radio held the annual Ultimate Song Chart Awards Presentation on the first day of 2021 in the Kowloon Bay International Trade and Exhibition Centre.
Under the menace of the coronavirus pandemic, no audience was admitted to the venue, and the ceremony was broadcast live online.
The local band Rubber Band took home the Silver Group Award, and “My Favourite Group” Award for the second consecutive year.
One of the band's member Nai Mang expressed gratitude to HongKongers, and the goal of bringing hope through their music. “In the past year with COVID-19, we seemed to have lost a lot, and injustice is still happening under the pandemic. I believe that as creative workerd, we have the responsibility to give you hope, and tell you that now is yet the time for despair. HongKongers, hang on!”
The band vocal Luk Ho, during their performance of the song “Endless”, said that the piece was not just a song of encouragement, but also of company. “This song is a record of what everyone has been through during 2019-20. Even though tough times feel endless, we will always be with you.”
In another acceptance speech, he quoted lyrics from the song "All we have is now" which he co-wrote with another local singer Charmaine Fong: "Take a deep breath and keep going”, to encourage fellow HongKongers. “We must take a deep breath now. No matter how things will change in 2021, 2022... We will keep going.”

HK #Lyricist Finds #Hope in #NextGeneration: "The Worst Times Can Bring About the Best Music"
In a TV program aired in Hong Kong on April 23, 2021, the RTHK journalist interviewed critically acclaimed lyricist and scholar #ChowYiuFai about his experiences teaching lyric writing in university in the past 10 years since his return to Hong Kong.
He teaches students to practice their creative process continuously in their daily lives, in order to keep their skills and senses sharp, and not to grow desensitized in their daily routines.
He finds that his students bring him a lot of hope. "When this world has young people like them, how could I give up?"
Chow says that there are always limitations when working in creative fields. His approach to songwriting is to stay true to reality as he knows it, and write within a given premise.
He believes that the worst times can bring about the best music. "When you feel very safe, and the whole world seems at peace, it's a frighteningly apathetic state of mind to be in."

South Korean Netizens Encourage Hongkongers For "A Better Tomorrow" in the Fight For Freedom
On June 3, 2016, the Korean Pops Orchestra performed the theme song of a 1987-Hong Kong movie A Better Tomorrow II (英雄本色2) at Gyeonggi Arts Center Grand Theater in South Korea.
The theme song was entitled "Running Toward the Days of Future" (奔向未來日子) and was composed by Hong Kong iconic musician Joseph Koo (顧嘉煇).
Together with the movie directed by John Woo, the song has been very popular in South Korea during the 1980s and the 1990s.
In a comment published in January 2021, a netizen explained the sentiment shared by the South Korean population towards this Hong Kong movie:
"Probably, Hongkonger do not understand the reason for popularity of this title song. All most all Korean was depressed due to the military junta in the late 1980 and early 1990. The miserable situation could be found from movies, Tax Driver, 1987 etc.
The counterpart of heroes, Leslie Cheung, Donald Chow Aman Chow and Ti Lung, really really touched the heart of Korean - we can change the life. Now, we are likely to say that... you can change your world as we did."
Other netizens concurred and left words of support for Hongkongers to fight for democracy and freedom in today's context.

Would Karaoke become a crime?: Hong Kong School Politicizes Cantopop Lyrics and Censors Singing Contest
In Hong Kong, two students from the ELCHK Yuen Long Lutheran Secondary School decided to perform a Cantonese pop song titled "銀河修理員” (Translated as: Galatic Repairman) at the school's singing contest.
The song was originally performed by the local band #DearJane.
The school, however, rejected the song, calling certain lyrics "political". The students were forced to modify their performance and only allowed to perform a makeover version call 疫情加油(Translated as: Pandemic Add Oil").
In the end, the two students entered the finals and performed on stage. They sang the song with the original lyrics and chanted "HongKongers Add Oil" after the performance.
The two were disqualified for performing the song without the school's approval and each were given a demerit. They were also banned from performing for the school in the future which could affect their chances of going to college.
Stand News made inquiries to the school about the incident, but the vice principal, Tam refused to give a response.
