Introduction to "Forgive Me Today":

"Forgive Me Today" was written by Paul Wong, composed by Wong Ka Kui, arranged by Beyond, and included in Beyond's Cantonese album "Beyond IV," released in July 1989. The song primarily tells of the inner struggles a person faces when confronting difficulties and challenges in life, and the desire for understanding and support.

Paul Wong's lyrics are poignant and direct, expressing a desire for forgiveness from family or friends for past impulsiveness and mistakes, embodying the importance of understanding and tolerance between people. "Forgive Me Today" not only showcases the tacit cooperation among Beyond's band members but also reflects their deep exploration and concern for human nature, making it a warm and moving chapter in Beyond's musical creations. The song is widely loved by listeners for its genuine emotion and universal themes.

Lyrics:

Sorrows kept hidden deep inside, unspoken and unclear
Silently facing each other, I just want you to understand
Growing up, one must go through struggles
I often tried my best to explain my hardships

Watching you gasp for breath, people walk away and disappear

If you believe in fate, we will still be together in the end
Never said goodbye deep in my heart, only silently shedding tears

Looking back to when we met every day, never tired of it
Now, only a heart that has been adorned remains
Trying to erase her from memories, but I can't seem to
The regret is that we both gave our true hearts

Who would be willing to retreat. Forgive me today

If you believe in fate, we will still be together in the end
Never said goodbye deep in my heart, only silently shedding tears


Watching you gasp for breath, people walk away and disappear

If you believe in fate, we will still be together in the end
Never said goodbye deep in my heart, only silently shedding tears

If you believe in fate, we will still be together in the end
Never said goodbye deep in my heart, only silently shedding tears
Ah... Ah... Ah....

Tips for Properly Preserving Classic 80s Cantonese Vinyl Records

If you currently own early classic Cantonese vinyl records by superstars like Beyond, Leslie Cheung, or Anita Mui, we recommend adopting the following professional maintenance methods to maintain their optimal condition and market value:

  1. Store Vertically: Never stack vinyl records horizontally, as this will cause them to warp. Store them vertically, like books, on sturdy shelves.
  2. Control Temperature and Humidity: Taiwan and Hong Kong have humid climates. Store records in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight or heat sources. It is recommended to control indoor humidity between 45%-50% to prevent mold on record sleeves.
  3. Replace Inner Sleeves: Many original paper inner sleeves from the 80s are prone to moisture, mold, and scratching the record surface. It is recommended to replace them with anti-static translucent plastic inner sleeves.
  4. Clean Before Playback: Use a professional anti-static carbon fiber brush to gently dust the record surface before playing. This not only improves sound quality but also protects the stylus and record grooves.

We specialize in acquiring classic Chinese pop vinyl records and have a thorough understanding of the market prices for Beyond's vinyl records, cassettes, and CDs from all periods, ensuring we offer the most competitive quote for your "Forgive Me Today" white label record.
