Complete item notes
Anita Mui has countless classic works,and "The Road Eventually Ends," with lyrics by Richard Lam and music by Anthony Lun,is an emotional masterpiece among 80s Hong Kong pop music vinyl records. This song vividly portrays the partings and reunions,the trials and tribulations of life's long journey. For seasoned vinyl collectors and audiophiles,while commercially released regular albums are undoubtedly classic,the "The Road Eventually Ends" white label promo vinyl record (Promo Copy) holds an irreplaceable historical status and extremely high collection value.
A "white label promo record" is typically a special pressing made by record companies before an album's official release,primarily sent to radio DJs,media,or music critics for promotional listening. Due to not being sold to the public,these records are produced in extremely limited quantities. More importantly,white label promos are often pressed from the earliest master tapes (First Press),meaning their dynamic range,vocal imaging,and instrumental detail are often clearer and more transparent than later mass-produced commercial versions. This is why they are consistently sought-after rare treasures in the recommended used vinyl record market.
Comparison of "The Road Eventually Ends" Vinyl Editions
To help more music fans and collectors understand the uniqueness of this record,here's a comparison of the main differences between the white label promo and the regular commercial version:

| Sound Quality & Pressing | Very early pressing (first press),minimal wear on master grooves,most original sound quality | Depends on the pressing batch (from first press to reissues),later batches might have slightly compromised sound quality |
| Collectibility & Market Value | Extremely high market scarcity,Anita Mui white label record resale prices repeatedly break records in auctions and the secondary market | Higher availability,resale and transaction prices primarily depend on the record's condition |

Lyrics:
Lyricist: Richard Lam Composer: Anthony Lun
The long road is full of twists and turns
People are like dust,spinning around
Is there any free will in it
Or was there no choice
The long road has wind and dust
Gathering and parting,sweet and sour
Although the road eventually ends
Who can be without lingering memories
Today,alone in the wind
Looking back at a life of winding paths
A little sour in the heart,but still warm
Once met him
Twisting and turning,chasing and searching
Then realizing in my heart
There is a path for me to lie on
Who walked with me in the past
Today I see it again
The long road is full of twists and turns
People are like dust,spinning around
Is there any free will in it
Or was there no choice
The long road has wind and dust
Gathering and parting,sweet and sour
Although the road eventually ends
Who can be without lingering memories
Today,alone in the wind
Looking back at a life of winding paths
A little sour in the heart,but still warm
Once met him
Twisting and turning,chasing and searching
Then realizing in my heart
There is a path for me to lie on
Who walked with me in the past
Today I see it again
Even if people are just passers-by in this world
Always remember someone who was kind to me
