If you are around 30 years old now and have graduated from school for a while, you should have a good job. Compared with "Sailor", another classic song in this album that has been hailed as "influencing a generation", the song "Middle Class" is too easy to be ignored.

If you are around 30 years old now and have graduated from school for a while, you should have a good job. But you gradually feel the hardship of life, and feel that the courage on your shoulders is getting heavier and heavier, sometimes making you breathless. You want to stop and take a break, but you find that life doesn't give you time to rest at all.

This feeling is especially true for most ordinary people today, but as early as 26 years ago Zheng Zhihua had completely written these true feelings into a song. This song uses realistic techniques to expose the life of every ordinary person living in a big city. The lyrics are very simple but very true.

This song is called "Middle Class". The lyrics and music were written by Zheng Zhihua. It was included in his album "Private Songs" released in 1992. Compared with "Sailor", another classic song in this album that has been hailed as "influencing a generation", the song "Middle Class" is too easy to be ignored.

Zheng Zhihua has always been regarded as a humanistic singer, and some fans even compared him with Mr. Lu Xun. Many of his songs contain strong humanistic care, criticize reality, and examine real society from a unique perspective.

These are also reflected in the song "Middle Class". Zheng Zhihua is like a "prophet" in this song, accurately "predicting" the life scenes of most ordinary people born in the 1980s, 20 years later.

"My burden is heavy, my shoulder hurts, I carry my face and wander among the crowd..." The first line of this song tells the real life of many people, carrying their face under pressure, Isn't this the life of ordinary urbanites?

and "My bed is very big, but I never sleep well. I'm afraid that I will be forgotten by the world after one night..." "No one cares about my troubles, everyone only cares about his pocket..." These lyrics are accurate. The current situation of countless young people who seem to have a carefree life.

This song depicts an extremely real life picture of an ordinary person in the city struggling between ideals and reality. This song is not as passionate as "Sailor" and inspires struggling people from a spiritual level, but it outlines life in a very realistic way.

Therefore, when many people came into contact with this song for the first time, they did not truly understand the profound connotation expressed by this song, because they were too young at that time. They did not understand until they grew up and needed to bear the pressure of life independently. This song.

At the end of this song, Zheng Zhihua also said something that many people want to ask with reflection, "Am I going to be ordinary until I grow old? My life has always been neither bad nor bad. Have I learned to give up thinking? This way Only then can I live a good life..." At the end of the

song, Zheng Zhihua repeatedly sang "Only in this way can I live a good life", which was more like a silent cry of compromise. But the line at the end of the song, "You can live well only if your head is broken," is full of irony and reflection.

As someone commented, Zheng Zhihua's song is like a "divine prophecy". When you are still an ignorant teenager, your future life has been sung into a song, but you won't know it at that time. You are the person in the song
