1905 movie network news Those who are familiar with Jackie Chan know that this international superstar is famous all over the world for his good Chinese kung fu; behind him, there is a Jackie Chan international stunt team known for "not afraid of death" – Chengjiaban. On May 31, 2018, Jackie Chan launched his new song "Youth Story". The lyrics of this song are Jackie Chan’s inner monologue, describing his excitement and inevitable emotions on the eve of the 40th anniversary celebration of Chengjiaban. The lyrics are straight to the heart, and the feelings are delicate and full of true feelings. In order to sing their true feelings, Jackie Chan and his wife Lin Fengjiao personally participated in the composition, composed by the famous Chinese lyricist Wang Pingjiu and the famous Chinese musician Zhao Jialin. Jackie Chan said, "What should be said and what should be understood is all in the song."
On the last day of May, the song that has been written for many years finally stepped on the tail of spring and went online. Jackie Chan, who is 64 years old this year, also stood on the tail of his youth and told his fans the story of his youth. The netizens commented, "I dare not listen to this song. When I listen to it, I think of my best friend in college, but she is no longer there." "If there was a person who worked hard together in your youth, you will understand this song."
Jackie Chan invited Lin Fengjiao to participate in the creation, self-destructed, and lost sleep all night for the brothers’ party
The reason why a song is moving is not only because of the beautiful singing, but also because of the singer’s own life story. The original intention of "Youth Story" was not to make a music album, but a song specially produced by Jackie Chan for the 40th anniversary celebration of the family class. The song has a simple melody and simple lyrics, but it touches people’s hearts because it is full of true feelings.
When Jackie Chan started writing this song, he first thought of inviting his wife Lin Fengjiao to participate. It is not difficult to guess why: one is because Lin Fengjiao knows Jackie Chan best; the other is because she has the same deep feelings for these brothers as Jackie Chan. In fact, from the beginning of the establishment of the family class, Lin Fengjiao has taken care of all the brothers in the family class for forty years. After the song "Youth Story" was completed, Jackie Chan sang a cappella to his wife in person, and Lin Fengjiao once heard tears collapse.
"I woke up several times the night before we met/I have been grasping the past in my hand/I am afraid of missing the appointed time/A ticket takes my youth to wander/Back to the past", this is a lyric of Jackie Chan’s "Youth Story". Such a kung fu superstar who has traveled all over the world with his bare hands, such a screen hero who jumps down from a high-rise building without blinking his eyes, at that moment, he was sleepless because of a party. Many people who have been away from home for many years will have the feeling of timidity in their hometown, and Jackie Chan is the same. Since its establishment in 1976, Chengjia Class has been following Jackie Chan in the wind and rain, and today it is the eighth generation. For more than 40 years, the members of the older generation of Chengjia Class have had their own careers and have traveled all over the world.
Uneasy because of deep feelings, afraid of change because of missing. On the night before the reunion, Jackie Chan was very tormented. He couldn’t wait to see all his brothers, but he was also afraid that he would be estranged because of being separated for too long. "It’s been 40 years of traces/40 years of heart/How eager to meet you/See if it changes". Fortunately, at the 40th anniversary celebration of the family class the next day, all but five members of the family class from all over the world arrived, and these five members did not show up because they were no longer alive. As long as the heart is still there, neither time nor distance can change anything.
As June graduation season approaches, sing your youth story with Jackie Chan
"A goodbye won’t go far/Keep your eyes in your heart/Take another long-lost photo." Many people who heard this song at the 40th anniversary celebration of the Chengjia class said: "The Story of Youth, when I listen to it, I think of my youth, I think of my best friends in high school and college." Just as the graduation season in June, Jackie Chan’s "Story of Youth" is also very suitable for the theme of graduation parting. College students and high school students who are about to leave campus will definitely have a special feeling when they listen to this song. Indeed, just like the Chengjia class, after graduation, the classmates all go their separate ways, busy in the world, and many close friends never have the opportunity to see each other again. Jackie Chan chose to release his new song in the graduation season, and also wanted to use his life experience of more than 60 years to give a piece of advice to the newly graduated students: cherish your youth, cherish those who have worked hard and worked hard with you, because "no matter how wonderful life is/it is only a moment/having you is forever".
It is reported that after the launch of "Youth Story", Jackie Chan and his team will launch a series of online and offline activities with the theme of "Youth Story" in June. Jackie Chan hopes that by singing the song "Youth Story", more people can share their youth stories together and cherish the people around them more.
