Time flies, and the first half of 2022 has passed in the blink of an eye. On the last day of June, many friends are lamenting that time passes too fast. It is not just that half a year has passed in the blink of an eye, but that it has been since Huang Jiaju left today. 29 years.

In the early hours of this morning, Huang Guanzhong posted a message in memory of his former good brother, saying that he missed him very much. Not long ago, on Wong Ka-kui's 60th birthday, he also sent a message to wish him a happy birthday.

Although Huang Jiaju has been away for many years, to Huang Guanzhong, it seems like yesterday. Even now, he still meets him in his dreams. The two play guitar and music together. It is not until he wakes up that he realizes that this is nothing more than yesterday. A dream.

In fact, many fans and friends who like Huang Jiaju also have the same feelings as him. They always feel that Huang Jiaju has not really left, but is living a happy life in a corner of the world.

Huang Jiaju was born in an ordinary family. When he was a child, he accidentally heard some rock from his eldest sister in the 1970s, and he was instantly attracted to it.

In the following days, Huang Jiaju became very obsessed with rock bands such as Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin , etc. This also had a great influence on his future music.

When he was 17 years old, Huang Jiaju got his first guitar from his landlord. However, although he liked music at that time, he was just a dabbler. It was not until he was ridiculed by other guitarists when he participated in an underground band that he was inspired. Determined to learn guitar, he began to study hard and practice hard, and his skills also made a qualitative leap.

Later he met Ye Shirong , Deng Weiqian and Li Rongchao, who had common interests, and then the four formed a band, which was also the prototype of Beyond.

However, Deng Weiqian and Li Rongchao chose to leave at the end of that year. Later, Chen Shian and Huang Jiaqiang joined. However, in 1985, Chen Shian left the band because of studying abroad. It happened that Huang Guanzhong, who was still an art student at the time, could play Guitar was invited by Ye Shirong to join. It was only then that the five-member band known to the audience was officially launched.

In 1986, Wong Ka Kui began to try to create in Cantonese, and involved some , heavy metal, and other elements. That year they launched the album " Goodbye Ideal ". The title song of the same name was composed and sung by Wong Ka Kui alone. This song was also an early representative of Beyond. sexual works.

In 1988, Beyond released the Cantonese album "Modern Stage" again. Although the sales were not good, it was the beginning of their criticism of social phenomena.

In fact, in the past few years, Beyond has not been recognized by the market, and has also been criticized by the outside world because of the "weird" appearance of the members.

From today's perspective, they just wanted to express themselves at that time, but in that still somewhat traditional era, their overly advanced ideas were like a thorn, piercing into people's hearts, making them Many people cannot accept it.

However, with the release of the album "Beyond IV" the following year, the band began to be recognized by the public, and even achieved double platinum sales. Among them, "Really Love You" composed by Huang Jiakui won the top ten of the year Chinese Golden Melody Award and Top Ten Golden Melody Award, this is also one of Beyond's most popular songs.

To this day, many friends still click on the song "Really Love You" when entering KTV. Although everyone's Cantonese may be very poor, the emotions expressed are real.

Since this year, the band has been on an upward journey, and once became a popular top band. The release of various high-quality songs also allowed them to win various awards.

In 1991, the band signed a contract with a Japanese management company and began to enter the Japanese music scene. Although they also released Japanese songs, the response was not very good. Then the band once again moved to the Taiwan market, but before that, it had still accepted songs in Japan. There is a lot of acting work that needs to be completed by them.

If we could turn back time, I believe everyone would refuse to enter Japan. It is precisely because of this decision that indirectly caused Huang Jiaju's departure.

On June 24, 1993, Huang Jiajun accidentally fell off the stage while recording a program on Tokyo Fuji TV and fell into coma on the spot. Although he was sent to the hospital at that time, because of the seriousness of his injuries, he finally died on June 30 Unfortunately, he died at the age of 31.

In Huang Jiaju's short life, Beyond was a topic that could not be overcome, and for the Beyond band, Huang Jiaju was also a soul-like figure.

After he left, although the band continued, it was like a soulless body. It was no longer what it was before, and began to go downhill. They released multiple albums one after another, but it was difficult to return to their former glory.

In 2005, after holding the "Beyond The Story Live 2005" world tour farewell concert, Beyond announced its disbandment. However, in the minds of many fans, since Huang Ka-kui left, the band has existed in name only.

Whether it is "Really Love You", or " Glorious Years ", or even the songs that are still in the playlists of many friends today, Wong Ka Kui is present, so even leaving aside the identity of the founder of the band, In terms of talent, Wong Ka Kui is also crucial to this band.

Looking back at the few Beyond concerts that year, when Wong Ka Kui sang hard on the stage, the fans in the audience almost went crazy.

In that era when rock music was rampant, Beyond was also a very representative rock pioneer, pointing the way for many singers who liked rock music in the future.

Maybe you don’t know much about rock music, but in those years, when you were confused and helpless, it was Wong Ka Kui’s singing that accompanied you sleepless nights and helped you come out of it. The moments are vivid in your mind.

After Huang Jiaju, although many rock singers appeared in the entertainment industry and caused a moment of excitement, it is difficult for anyone to replicate the glory of him and the entire beyond band.

Sometimes we can't help but think, if Huang Jiaju had not had the accident, what would Beyond be like now? Would he still be active on the stage?

Maybe, maybe not, but what is certain is that Huang Jiaju, who loves singing, will definitely pick up the guitar and sing songs from time to time, chatting with fans and friends who like him, and talk about his own situation. , occasionally recall the past and lament the time.

Unfortunately, time cannot go back, and there are no ifs in this world. What has happened has happened, and no one can change it.

Fortunately, there is still Huang Jiaju's singing voice. Whenever we start to miss him, he will whisper softly in our ears, or roar hard, giving us the strength to move on~
