乘風去 (S(S)AB) Gone With The Wind

1981年到加拿大讀書，還是黃毛小子。當時沒有Internet或是WhatsApp，長途電話一分鐘要加幣兩個七，書信來回最快十四日，郵政又經常罷工，所以思郷病頗重，導致日後也寫了不少跟思郷有關的樂曲。《乘風去》就是其中一首，不過所描寫的是孤身遠闖、離別在即的心情，興奮之中又帶很多很多的不捨得。

In 1981, I went to Canada to study as a young lad.

Back then, there was no Internet or WhatsApp. Long-distance calls cost CAD 2.70 per minute, letters took at least 14 days for a round trip, and postal strikes were frequent. These limitations often left me homesick, inspiring many of my later compositions related to longing for home.

One such piece is Riding the Wind, which captures the bittersweet emotions of setting out alone and facing an imminent farewell. It conveys a mix of excitement for the journey ahead, intertwined with an overwhelming sense of reluctance and nostalgia.
