The wind continued to blow, unwilling to leave.

風繼續吹,不忍遠離。
Unparalleled beauty and unruly
Soft-spoken, or firm and confident
The years are silent, leaving only the shadows left in dreams

Leslie Cheung is a name that can't be ignored in Chinese film and music. Each role he plays exudes his soul and flavor, and each song is deeply moving. And so, I was deeply drawn to a person. But by then, that young man had long since passed away...

This year

It is the 18th year since my brother Leslie Cheung passed away

18 years have passed in the blink of an eye

The characters he created

Songs sung

But it left us with brilliant memories

My brother once said

Painting is about creating stories, singing is about telling stories

Each of his songs has a story.

This song is Leslie Cheung's famous song and is also the theme song of the movie "Along the World" in which he starred.

In 1983, Leslie Cheung's career was in a slump. When he acquired the rights to adapt the song "Sayounara no Mukage" by his idol, Momoe Yamaguchi, he hoped to hire a renowned lyricist. He approached Cheng Kuo-chiang, who offered him a fee of 3,000 yuan.

Fortunately, Zheng Guojiang was a kind and knowledgeable person, and he made an exception for this earnest junior and gave him a 50% discount, which led to the creation of the song "The Wind Continues to Blow".

Leslie Cheung deeply loved this song. He sang, "So many happy memories in the past, why not chase them with you?" He always performed this beloved song at every concert, and we could almost see the uninhibited Leslie Cheung from "Across the World," saying to his beloved, "Let's fall in love together, and die together, holding each other."

The past is gone, no longer lingering
