At The Threshold of An Era II

I have been following the re-screening of the old Hong Kong drama series "At the Threshold of An Era II" on Astro Ch314. The drama was first broadcast in 2000, starred Gallen Lo, Ada Choi, Louis Koo, Roger Kwok, Flora Chan and Kenix Kwok. Frankly, I have watched this drama for the umpteenth time.

This series is a farfetched tale about revenge that is quite ridiculous. Some of the characters are out to avenge their buddies/rivals at all means. The series main villain, Cheung Chi Lik (played by Louis Koo), is forever conspiring to destroy the man, Yip Wing Tim (played by Gallen Lo), whom he believes to have caused the death of his half brother.

The whole series is about misunderstandings and a lack of communication between the characters since all of that revenge could have been resolved if only the characters cared enough to check out the truth first.

So, you must be wondering what was that which kept me glued to the set every evening? Well, it is the theme song sang by Gallen Lo. I just love this song and allow me to share it here.

天地有情

作詞：李敏　作曲：杜自持　編曲：杜自持

未老是天　但人會變

難道證實了天與地無情

說感情難明　感覺無形

誰又和跟我感應?

是你用心　用誠意對我

然後宇宙裡充滿了激情

明白我個性　陪伴我醉與夢醒...

如果彼此心中有情

如果決定擊倒宿命

請相信最後能戰勝就憑拼勁

可衝出這一個逆境

如果知道真的有情

存天與地間的生命

一股勇氣昂然一聲

我自有呼應

這心聲可得到共鳴　太動聽
