Good afternoon everyone. today I will introduce a famous band to you, I think you kown the band-beyond.

Beyond is a famous rock band in Hong Kong that was founded in 1983. They have always identified with the people of Hong Kong, as reflected in their songs about social issues, pursuit of dreams, politics, and peace. Wong Ka Kui's " 海阔天空 (Boundless Oceans Vast Skies) & 光辉岁月(Glorious Years) are two of their best known works

Beyond stands out in the Chinese music industry due to the fact that they are one of the very few groups who compose and write their own music. With the exception of a single song, a tribute to their hero Sam Hui, Beyond has never recorded a cover in the studio.

Beyond were initially part of the "band boom" which occurred in Hong Kong in the 1980s, alongside other groups. After couple of flops, Beyond started to gain popular following the release of the song Dai Dei(Great land). Fellow underground musicians started to accuse Beyond of abandoning the rock and roll genre of music, gravitating towards pop. Beyond was unfazed and the few next albums saw several of the most important songs in the history of Hong Kong music.

. One of the songs, Glorious Age (Chinese: 光辉岁月), is about racism and the struggle of Nelson Mandela in South Africa. The song, at the time, was a fresh breath of air in the midst of sweet love songs that were dominating the Hong Kong music scene.Most of his songs are about dreams、freedom、and constant struggle.

In June 1993, Wong Ka Kui sustained massive head injuries after falling from a broken stage on a Fuji Television game show in Japan. Wong Ka Kui fell into a coma and died one week later. The Japanese will never understand, for us and for Hong Kong, that the incident was not merely about the loss of an artist. It was about losing a music revolutionary, and an age of time.

When we talk about Beyond,we feel the spirit of constant pursue、constant progress and supass ourself. most of the time, we all forget how to struggle ,when we failed after some efforts,we are very frustrated. but the spirit of beyond is not afraid of failure, insist on progress and pursue our dreams.
