Features: [Preface] I love coffee, and I love computers. I love drinking coffee while playing with my computer! Hehe, that's just my mood. Every day, the first thing I do when I enter the office is turn on the computer and check emails. That's a habit. I enjoy reading letters from readers and sharing my feelings about music with them. Sometimes, it even extends to other topics. A reader named Liu Xiuyou wrote in: "A friend of mine is going abroad, and I don't know what to give him as a gift. But I know he loves the theme song 'Misery' from FFX. I want to play it for him personally, but I don't have the sheet music. Do you happen to have it? If you do, could you send it to me?" Expressing longing across thousands of miles through the sound of the piano must be a special feeling. Even though I didn't even know FFX was the "Final Fantasy X" that fascinates so many gaming netizens, I took the initiative to arrange the original score and sent it to Liu Xiuyou via express delivery. It finally arrived in time for her friend to take off for his journey abroad as a special gift.
Liu Jun, a dedicated reader from Shandong, often chats with me via email, discussing music and life. The column "Unparalleled - Jay Chou" in the sixth issue was her suggestion. She hopes Jay Chou can support our "Pop Rain" as well! Additionally, thank you for the song "Track" by Jay I was recommended online. I will continue to listen to the voices of my readers and follow the emotional of music.
A girl named Liu Chutong wrote me two letters. The first one had just a few words: "I hope you can arrange Wang Leehom's 'The One' for the piano. It would be amazing!" In her second letter, she shared her story: "I just wanted to let you know how important this song is to me. I searched for its piano arrangement for a long time, visiting many bookstores. Because the person I loved fell in love with this song, he wanted to play it on the piano. But just after I sent my request to you, we parted for various reasons. Helping him find the sheet music became the last thing I did for him. I just hope he can be happy. No matter who he plays this song for in the future, I want him to understand that I've been doing my best to maintain and cherish our bond, even though we're no longer together."
I only want to say sorry to Liu Chutong. If I had known the reasons behind it, I would have arranged "The One" for the piano at the earliest opportunity! I hope it's not too late now. I hope that happy boy can understand Liu Chutong's heartfelt feelings!
Thank you, readers, for sharing your emotions with me, turning my loneliness into everyone's musical mood. Thank you, "Pop Rain," for becoming a platform for our communication, connecting us through notes. Thank you, music, for turning our joys and sorrows into a way to express ourselves.
