On May 19, 2017, I participated in a company's opening ceremony. I performed one of my original songs and got some encouraging feedback from the audience, I also took some video clips as I meant to produce a music video for the occasion.
On May 20, 2017, I instinctively believed that I could further improve my song: "Hong Kong". In the late afternoon, I began to modify the song by introducing new melody and rearranging the lyrics. I also tried to make the song sound better from the beginning to the end.
When I felt I got it, I quickly recorded the newer version of the song entitled: "Hong Kong: The Fragrant Harbour" as I might also forget new stuff quickly. I found the third take of the recordings acceptable and used it to make the music video. I managed to publish the music video before I went out for dinner.
I composed the first version of the song in 2013, the second version on May 19, 2017 and the third version on May 20, 2017. I do not know if the song would ever become a hit for Hong Kong. What I know is that my creativity seems to have its own pace!
