Complete item notes

During the golden age of 80s Cantonese vinyl records,Sally Yeh's voice was undoubtedly a hallmark of the era. The song "Ming Yun Wo Cao Zong" (Fate in My Hands),the theme song for the movie "The Woman Who Lies," was not only widely known at the time,but its white label/promo LP is also a rare treasure in today's second-hand vinyl record market.

So-called "white label records" are typically non-commercial products specially pressed by record companies and distributed to radio DJs,music critics,or media for promotional listening before the official release of an album. As they are early pressings from the master tape,groove wear is minimal,often preserving the most original and rich dynamic range and sonic details. For audiophile Hi-Fi enthusiasts seeking the ultimate listening experience,these rare white label vinyl records hold significant collector's value,and are a key target for our top cash appraisal of Sally Yeh vinyl records.

The Golden Triangle of Chinese Pop Music: Anthony Lun x Richard Lam x Sally Yeh

To delve into the depth of this album,we must mention its behind-the-scenes lineup. "Ming Yun Wo Cao Zong" was composed by Anthony Lun and lyricized by Richard Lam,a divine combination in the Hong Kong music scene. Anthony Lun excels at capturing the delicacy and resilience of urban women,his arrangements imbued with a strong cinematic feel; while lyricist master Richard Lam precisely and poignantly portrays the emotions of the female protagonist in "The Woman Who Lies" as she searches for self amidst confusion,ultimately longing to control her own destiny.

This is not just a pop song,but also a microcosm of the rise of female consciousness in the late 1980s. When you place this The Woman Who Lies movie soundtrack vinyl on the turntable,the needle reads not just music,but also the cultural memory of an era.

Lyrics:
Ming Yun Wo Cao Zong (Theme song of "The Woman Who Lies") - Sally Yeh

Lyrics: Richard Lam

Composer: Anthony Lun

Cheering wildly,celebrating my new life tonight
Now I can finally control my destiny
Today I will no longer wait idly in the dark for anyone
Like being in a cocoon,hoping and doubting
Before,I was unwilling to fly high because the cocoon seemed so beautiful

The threads within seemed to build a tangled web of obsession
Breaking free from the cocoon,I realize I am truly this vibrant
Now I quite admire this self-possessed person
Breaking free from the cocoon,I realize I have never been this real
No longer empty,even if I am alone

No matter how you analyze life,it's half-crazy
Yesterday was real,tonight will be a dream
Today,I walk freely with a smile,acknowledging empty hands
What's the point of living in a cocoon of delusion
Before,I was unwilling to fly high because the cocoon seemed so beautiful

The threads within seemed to build a tangled web of obsession
Breaking free from the cocoon,I realize I am truly this vibrant
Now I quite admire this self-possessed person
Breaking free from the cocoon,I realize I have never been this real
No longer empty,even if I am alone

Before,I was unwilling to fly high because the cocoon seemed so beautiful
The threads within seemed to build a tangled web of obsession
Breaking free from the cocoon,I realize I am truly this vibrant

Now I quite admire this self-possessed person
Breaking free from the cocoon,I realize I have never been this real

No longer empty,even if I am alone
Breaking free from the cocoon,I realize I am truly this vibrant
Now I quite admire this self-possessed person
Breaking free from the cocoon,I realize I have never been this real
No longer empty,even if I am alone

Breaking free from the cocoon,I realize I am truly this vibrant
Now I quite admire this self-possessed person
